It is written by Mark Shaw and published by IVP. It came out in 1997 so you would have to order it online. The first chapter, "A Vision for Truth: Luther's Theology of the Cross" is worth the price of the book alone. It's one of those can't-put-down books.

Probably the best book I've read on the subject. Really gives the reader God's perspective on this institution. Strongly recommend it.<br /> Just started Greg Koukl's "Tactics". Really enjoying it so far. He provides simple ways to winsomely engage others in spiritual conversations.
