Dedicated to Albert Mohler,
a treasured friend and trustworthy voice of clarity in confusing times. I love his unapologetic commitment to the authority of Scripture, courageous leadership, untiring zeal, and faithful devotion to the truth—written and incarnate. He is that rare combination of intrepid intellectualism and passionate love for the Lord (not merely academic curiosity) who, by his influence, has galvanized a generation of preachers who share his convictions.
