I have recently completed reading a book by my blog friend Adrian Warnock, Raised with Christ.
To say the least, Adrian has brought a major contribution to the Gospel-centered community by underscoring the meaning of the resurrection. That we preach Christ crucified is well known. That "Christ crucified" means crucified and risen is not so clear. I find myself often drawn to the atonement as the core of the Gospel, and it is. But atonement without resurrection is no atonement. And resurrection is not a background noise in the New Testament. Indeed, as Warnock shows, multiple texts in the NT speak to the significance of the resurrection. He even tackles some tough texts (like Romans 4:24-25).
The book is easy to follow, well organized, readable, and will be used with great profit by all. It will stir your faith unto sanctification, revival, witness, and hope.
