Announcing the Westminster Bookstore Rewards Program: Share $5, Get $5

This week the blog is being sponsored by the Westminster Bookstore.

As a non-profit ministry of Westminster Theological Seminary, the Westminster Bookstore has been tasked with supplying the church with the best Christian books available–kindergarten through MDiv. We know there are many places to get books. But we believe that books play a profound role in the life and health of the church and so we take seriously our mission to distribute only the best biblically rich, theologically robust, and pastorally relevant books to God’s people. You can learn more about what we do in this short video.

With Amazon as our biggest competitor, we rely on loyal customers to spread the word about us to their other Christian book-loving friends. Our referral program is a way to let more people know about what we do while rewarding you in the process. If you’ve found our ministry helpful, would you support us by telling your friends about us?

Here’s how it works in 3 easy steps:

  1. Give $5: Share your unique referral link with friends to give them a $5 off coupon for their first order at wtsbooks.com.
  2. They Place an Order: You’ll receive an email once your friend uses your unique referral link to place their first order.
  3. You Get $5: The email you receive will include a gift card code for $5 off your next order.

Every order makes a big difference for us, and your friend will come away with a great book. We hope we continue to be of service to you and that you grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ through the books.

    A Trip to Southern Africa

    I don’t often write trip reports after I travel, except, of course, in the form of books and documentary projects like Epic and From the Rising of the Sun. Yet, I thought I would make a rare exception after returning from my recent journey to Southern Africa (and, strangely, Northern California). While I am accustomed…

  • AI Slop

    The Rise of AI Book Slop

    We often hear these days of “AI slop,” a term that’s used to refer to the massive amounts of poor-quality AI-created material that is churned out and unceremoniously dumped onto the internet. This was once primarily artistless artwork and authorless articles, but has now advanced to much bigger and more substantial forms of content.

  • Hymns

    Pitch Perfect and Tone Deaf

    God commands us to sing. Yet while some of God’s people are gifted singers, the plain fact is that others are not. In any congregation, it’s likely that some have near-perfect pitch while others are functionally tone-deaf. Those who struggle to sing may be self-conscious, tempted to stay quiet or to do no more than…
