It’s About Time!—The Time Is Now
This book is not about a mountaintop experience nor is it from a mountaintop perspective. Rather, it is from the "street," down in the valley where people actually live.

The Religious History of Marietta in the Nineteenth Century

Informal Christianity–Refining Christ’s Church
Informal Christianity explores the personal relationship with Jesus Christ that underpins true Christianity. It discusses personal discipleship, being born again, and living a regenerated life through the Holy Spirit. The book warns that without these internal realities, churches shift focus from core doctrines to administration and growth. Emphasizing the need for biblical doctrine and theology, it calls for a return to the heart of Christianity, fostering genuine spiritual life and maturity.
Practically Christian–Applying James Today
This book seeks to shine the light of Scripture into the darkened recesses of the contemporary church by shining the light of James into the hearts of its contemporary readers. This is an intensely personal work in the sense that it attempts to get at issues that few people (or preachers) are willing to talk about, but are essential for the gospel to take root in our lives.

Poet Tree: Root, Branch & Sap
Ross has a wry sense of humor. If humor is funny because it contrasts odd things in unexpected ways, then the best humor isn’t all that funny. The best humor is ridiculously weird.
Peter’s Vision of The End
The end that Peter was talking about in Second Peter was the purpose of God for Jesus Christ. God was using Jesus Christ to bring the gospel of salvation to the Gentiles, to humanity, to the world. Consequently, Peter was not suggesting that God’s purpose was the destruction of the world. Rather, God was working to save the world. God’s message was and is a message of hope not hate, of love not loathes, of construction not destruction, of peace not war, and of suffering not fulfillment.
Rock Mountain Creed–Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount
The ineffectiveness of the church in our world is tied to our own regurgitation of old answers. It is not that we need new Christian answers, but that we need renewed hearts and minds to engage God’s answers through regeneration.
Galatians – Backstory / Christory
Understanding the New Testament without grasping the overarching narrative of the Old Testament often leads to misconceptions about Jesus Christ's role and purpose in the Bible. Paul's letter to the Galatians is frequently misunderstood because many fail to appreciate how Paul's understanding of the Old Testament transformed in light of Christ. As a former Pharisee, Paul initially interpreted the Old Testament through traditional Jewish lenses. However, his encounter with Christ radically shifted his perspective, aligning it with Jesus' interpretation of Scripture. To fully grasp Paul's message in Galatians, it's essential to explore how Christ illuminated and transformed Paul's original understanding of the Old Testament narrative.
Colossians–Christos Singularis
This study of Colossians delves into the doctrine of the Trinity and its profound implications for understanding our own nature. It asserts that, while we are not Trinitarian in the same way as God, we reflect His Trinitarian character as part of being made in His image (Genesis 1:26). Just as an image resembles but is not identical to the original, we mirror God's Trinitarian nature in our own lives. This study explores how God's revealed character as a Trinity shapes our understanding and application of Scripture, while also acknowledging instances in Scripture where the concept of God's singularity is expressed.
Varsy Arsy–Proclaiming the Gospel in Second Corinthians
Varsy Arsy, the second volume in Ross’s examination of Paul’s letters to the Corinthians, delves into the Corinthian church’s embrace of a false teaching rooted in Greek wisdom. This Gnostic spirituality, while bringing wealth and influence, was denounced by Paul as a façade. In contrast to the celebrated success of the Corinthians, Paul challenges them to return to genuine faithfulness, opposing the worldly wisdom of Greek culture with the true wisdom of Christ. What the Corinthians deemed wisdom, Paul boldly labels as foolishness.
