What Scripture says still governs.
What Scripture Says is a two-volume Bible and theology series asking what God has said, what the text requires, and what Christian obedience demands. The books address difficult questions without replacing biblical authority with sentiment, institutional habit, or cultural pressure.
Both volumes are coming soon. Get notified the moment each one is live.
The governing question
What has God actually said?
These books stand or fall by Scripture. They ask what the text says, how its argument holds together, and what follows when Christians submit their conclusions to it. They are written for readers who would rather be corrected by the Word of God than protected from a difficult answer.
Bible & Theology
What Scripture Says
Two volumes bringing disputed questions back to Scripture: first the world’s open rebellion against biblical truth, then the questions Christians dispute among themselves.
What Scripture Says — Volume 2
Submitting the Church to Biblical Authority
Seventeen chapters on the questions Christians dispute — and how the text settles them.

Questions
Before you go
Are the What Scripture Says books political books?
No. They are governed by Scripture, not by political usefulness. Some chapters address public and cultural questions because Scripture speaks to those questions, but the method throughout is exegesis and doctrinal argument.
What translation does the series use?
Quotations are drawn from the ESV (English Standard Version) throughout both volumes.
What is the difference between Volume 1 and Volume 2?
Volume 1, Confronting the World with Biblical Truth, takes up the world’s open disagreement with Scripture — truth, marriage, sexuality, the sanctity of life, Marxism, and the false gospels of the age. Volume 2, Submitting the Church to Biblical Authority, takes up the harder task: questions Christians dispute among themselves, including salvation, the household, baptism, and church order.
What formats will the books be available in?
Each book has been prepared for paperback and hardcover print editions, with assigned ISBNs. Kindle and audiobook editions are also planned. Buy links for each format will appear on the book’s page as they become available.
