Counterfeit Gospels: Rediscovering the Good News in a World of False Hope
"Evangelicals are rightly asking today, what is the gospel which we believe in and proclaim? Trevin Wax in this wonderfully readable and irenic book helps us sort out the issues, showing us that the gospel announcement is truncated if one does not understand the gospel story and if the gospel is not fleshed out in our churches."Thomas R. SchreinerJames Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament InterpretationThe Southern Baptist Theological Seminary“This book clarifies the message and mission of the church as much as any book in print today. It is rich in both insight and illustration, very-thought provoking and very readable. I can’t imagine a more helpful description of, and prescription for, contemporary evangelicalism. Return to the Gospel!”J.D. GreearPastor of The Summit Church, Raleigh, NC, and author ofBreaking the Islam CodePerhaps the single greatest need in the contemporary church is for Christians to understand the gospel and its counterfeits. Our lost and broken world is desperate for such clarity. Trevin gives it to us with this clear and compelling book about the nature and implications of the greatest story ever told.Darrin PatrickAuthor, Church-planter, and Pastor of The Journey“This book is a winsome, creative, and compelling analysis of the pitfalls of a non-gospel or less-than-gospel Christianity -- and a description of a full-orbed gospel Christianity.” Josh MoodyPastor of College Church, Wheaton, IL, and author ofNo Other Gospel
