I was so happy to see this on twitter. Incidentally I got my copy of King Jesus Gospel yesterday and woke up to this article! I have been amazed at how you stay out of the fray of evangelical celebrity, so I think this is going to be an important book for anyone who anticipates going into ministry. I like reading essays, so I will definitely get a copy to share with friends to discuss.
This is a well-deserved honor and I hope more 'everyday people' (lay-people) like me take notice of your work as a result. You are an asset to the church, a stable voice in the storm.
What a well deserved surprise. Your writings have influenced all of us in both our theological frameworks and our ministry practices. I love that Tara Beth Leach and Nancy Ortberg and the other women are included too. Your writings on women have been particularly helpful to many women and men I know on the mission field, in seminaries and in churches. You are a champion for women, and in this world, we still need allies and advocates. Thank you for using your God-given gifts to bless the global church. I look forward to reading this.
Lieber Scot, ich gratuliere dir sehr herzlich. Ich kenne wenige Leute, die solch eine Ehre verdienen sollen. Du hast hauptsáchtlich die englischsprechende Kirche sehr viel geholfen. Als wir im Osten sagen, Axios!

Thank you Lindsey, very kind of you.

Many thanks for this Lori. Bless you.
I love when surprises are actually pulled off, bless you and Kris! Being a great friend begets great friends! Tov.

Vielen Dank. Als wir in Protestantum sagen, Gnade!
Ach, "im," nein?
A well-deserved honor Scot. I'm honored to be one of your students.
Congratulations, Scot, this is well-deserved honor. My copy is ordered.
I do have a question: you have only one bookshelf for all your books? It must be a big one! 😉
It’s a book case (I have to admit).
Saw Nijay's post earlier this week about it and I immediately preordered. Really looking forward to this.
