      In Jeremiah 31, God declares He will make a New Covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah. How we understand that covenant has tremendous importance for every area of theology. An Introduction to the New Covenant examines the covenant to discover who are the recipients of the promised blessings, and concludes that the New Covenant is intended exclusively for Israel and Judah. While An Introduction to the New Covenant asserts that the church is not related to the New Covenant, God’s promises to the nation of Israel have profound implications for every believer, every day.

    • Born and raised in Flint, Michigan, David Gunn is proud to have grown up in a city facing constant adversity, and to represent a community whose government knowingly poisoned its citizens for years. Now, he pulls back the curtain on Flint--like only those born and raised there can do. His advice is poignant and timely, and urges readers to never stop working through the struggle. To not create a back-up plan, and to cross the bridge and burn it behind them. To define the things they want and run toward them.Like Laura Jane Grace's Tranny and Rob Rufus' Die Young With Me, Summertime in Murdertown is part memoir, part ethnography. It sheds light on what it means to grow up amid constant violence and poverty and serves as a voice to those struggling to survive as we navigate this unpredictable and often cruel world in search of inspiration.

    • In 1941 aged six David Gunn was subjected to Hitler's Blitz of Plymouth. Unlike some 1,200 who were killed, he and his mother escaped to live on a farm in the peaceful Cotswold hills where he learned to milk cows and ride horses. David joined the Royal Navy, the fourth generation of his family to do so, at the age of 13. At the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth there was a cold bath on waking up and compulsory boxing - then to an even more disciplined training cruiser in the tropics and Arctic Circle. Now a midshipman he traveled on the HMT Empire Windrush to the Indian Ocean to join a cruiser which sailed for the Maldives to oversee the transformation from sultanate to republic. Returning home there were rough seas in the Cold War, rugby with the Wasps and modern pentathlon to Olympic standard.
