Zion Lutheran Church in Tomball, Texas invited Dr. Rod Rosenbladt and Craig Parton to speak at the 2009 Apologetics Symposium. Their assignment was straightforward: define the apologetic task and give the bedrock foundation for an easily understood defense of the Christian faith.

With the exception of Dr. John Warwick Montgomery, there are no more eminently qualified and experienced men to address this topic than these two men, and they both hit grand slam home runs with these lectures.

Several of the attendees at the Symposium told us that these were the best lectures on the subject that they had ever heard. One gentleman told us he had been studying apologetics for twenty years and these (and one by Mr. Parton, in particular) were the clearest, most powerful lectures on the subject that he had ever heard.

If you're looking for a heavy dose of guilt and shame, then you've come to the wrong place. Does your struggle with sin ever cause you to question your salvation? Is there an area of your life that is totally out of control? Has the perfect standard of God's law brought you to the brink of despair?

Take heart. You are not alone. The conflict between law and grace has permeated Christendom for centuries and continues on to this day. The acrid smoke rising from the battlefield has even clouded the minds of some Christians to seriously contemplate; "Is Christ's death enough to save even a sinner such as me?"

The Bible is a big book! Actually, it is a mini library consisting of sixty-six individual books. Either way you look at it, the central theme of the Bible remains a mystery to many people. This need not be the case. In the Bible in an Hour audio presentation, veteran Bible teacher Wade Butler will be your guide as he takes you on a panoramic journey through the Scriptures.

Many people know all of the stories in the Bible, but have no idea how they all fit together. It's like they have a string of pearls all loose in a bag, but have never seen the whole necklace. It's like they have all the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, but have never seen the top of the box. Bible in an Hour will show you the way the pearls are strung together, and finally, finally, you will see the top of the box. -Wade Butler

Hungry for truth? Starving for clarity? Well then, pull up a chair and feast on these tasty lectures presented by Dr. Rod Rosenbladt and Craig Parton Esq. as they team up to answer the growing question "Where in the Church is the Gospel?"

In the perfect follow-through to the first part of this series, "The Gospel For Those Broken By The Church", Dr. Rosenbladt shares the essential ingredients present in churches that preach the Gospel and will equip you with the basic tools needed to evaluate a Gospel centered church. These lectures provide healthy food for thought when weighing a church's faithfulness to the Gospel and offer hope for those who may be starving in the post-evangelical famine.

This MP3 of the recording of Dr. Rosenbladt's presentation is tailor-made for all those folks who are "mad" at and "sad" about Christianity BECAUSE they have been "baited and switched" by the church.

If the Ten Commandments were not impossible enough, the preaching of Christian behavior, of Christian ethics, of Christian living, can drive a Christian into despairing unbelief. Not happy unbelief. Tragic, despairing, sad unbelief. (It is not unlike the [unhappy] Christian equivalent of "Jack Mormons" - those who finally admit to themselves and others that they can't live up to the demands of this non-Christian cult's laws, and excuse themselves from the whole sheebang.) A diet of this stuff from pulpit, from curriculum, from a Christian reading list, can do a work on a Christian that is (at least over the long haul) "faith destroying."

The Word of God is no stranger to attack. Ever since the Garden of Eden, God's word has been under siege. The first question recorded in Scripture is when Satan asked Eve, "Did God really say...?" (Genesis 3:1). People today are still questioning God's word.

Instead of the Bible being granted the basic dignity of being considered innocent until proven guilty, it is unashamedly considered by many to be guilty until proven innocent. However, in spite of centuries of turmoil and aggression brought against it, the word of the Lord stands firm forever. As the psalmist rightly declares, "Your word, O LORD is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens." (Psalm 119:89).

New Reformation Press is proud to offer this new rendition of the ancient Chi Rho symbol. This T-shirt is another in our series designed to bring the richness of our Christian heritage back into our culture. It proudly proclaims Christ Alone.

The Chi Rho, often referred to as the ‘monogram of Christ’...

For the Christian, it can often be difficult to reconcile being both sinner and yet righteous by faith. It is a dichotomy that can truly seem so contradictory as to not even be possible. But yet, being baptized into Christ's death and resurrection, the sinner is declared blameless, Jesus' righteousness being imputed to the sinner's account for Jesus' sake.

Our lion design focusing on Dr. Martin Luther's "Simul Iustus Et Peccator", or "At Once Justified and Sinner", shows the tension of the difficult, yet true, state for the Christian believer. But rather than focus on the believer himself, this design re-focuses the concept of "Simul Iustus" back to Jesus Christ and the cross.

This shirt bears one of Dr. Martin Luther's most well-known phrases, "Simul Iustus et Peccator" or "At Once Justified and Sinner" (also commonly translated as "Simultaneously Sinner and Saint").

Being baptized into Christ's death and resurrection, the sinner is declared blameless, Jesus' righteousness being imputed to the sinner's account for Jesus' sake. This concept of justification is the core of the Gospel rediscovered in the Reformation of the 16th century.

With beautiful symmetry and theological significance, this low-profile and comfortable headgear displays the classic Luther Rose with style and grace. Encircled by three of the five “solas”, the front of the cap boldly proclaims Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Scripture Alone. What a great way to share central tenets of the Christian faith and invite opportunities for spontaneous discussion and encouragement. The back of the cap features a small, yet smartly placed "newreformationpress.com" near the bottom of the rim.

One size fits most.

Original, excellently crafted and performed, and overtly and in your face Christ centered, he borrows from several genres, folk, hip-hop, blues, rock and several others. The music is a brilliant amalgamation and re-interpretation of all of these influences, and packs a punch, both emotionally and intellectually. We love it.

The Word of God is foundational in the life and knowledge of the Christian believer, and Scripture memorization is a core spiritual discipline.

New Reformation Press in conjunction with Dr. Rod Rosenbladt has developed a new topical Scripture memory study tool to aid in this discipline. These Bible flash cards are arranged doctrine by doctrine - such as the attributes of God, the doctrine of Christ, the doctrine of man, sin, salvation and many more - all with the pertinent verses on the opposite side. 220 Scriptures in all.

From Martin Luther's Letter to Two Pastors Concerning Rebaptism.

In ever more increasing numbers, Christians who were baptized as infants are having themselves rebaptized as adults. But is a second baptism really necessary? Could it even be harmful?

The great reformer Martin Luther addresses these questions in this short work—freshly translated from German into modern English—and in the process outlines the basics of baptism. It is a must read for anyone contemplating their own rebaptism, or the baptism of an infant.

Formatted into 14 simple chapters along with study questions, this 88 page book is perfect for personal devotion or Bible study.
