Christendom is long gone for American society, and with it many of the familiar moral norms we used to expect from the culture around us. Instead of shrinking back, the church has an historic opportunity to present the goodness and sufficiency of Jesus.
Sam Allberry, who has written extensively on sexuality, culture and evangelism discusses how we can engage biblically and thoughtfully with the culture around us with Trevin Wax and Brett McCracken.
On May 3, Immanuel Church Nashville, where Sam Allberry had been serving as a pastor, announced that the elders had found Sam to be disqualified from gospel ministry due to his conduct in an inappropriate relationship. You can read their statement here. At TGBC, we seek to follow the lead of the church in discerning who is qualified to have a teaching ministry through the writing of books. We have therefore, with a heavy heart, paused sales of the books Sam has published with TGBC while we seek further clarification and discern the wisest way forwards. We are praying for Sam, for his church, and for all others who have been affected by this situation. If you have any questions about Sam's books, please email admin@thegoodbook.com. And if you would like to be pointed to a resource similar to the one on this product page, please email hello@thegoodbook.com and we’d be glad to try to help. Carl Laferton, Publisher/Co-CEO
