When Church Renewal is the Issue Are you interested in biblical reformation and true revival? ACT 3 Review is the resource you need. This quarterly of 225 pages is an intelligent, affordable publication designed to strengthen praying Christians by exploring important subjects that feed the prayerful passion of thousands who are longing for the renewing Church in our time. A Review Designed for the Discerning Reader ACT 3 Review is not for those who want their piety warmed over in the context of what Dietrich Bonhoeffer called “cheap grace.” It is published with the desire to foster real reformation and prayer for spiritual awakening. The conviction of the editors is simple-the Church will experience renewal only by the Word of God and the work of the Holy Spirit. These two, which God has joined together, must never be divorced. What is needed is a serious encounter with the faith of the historic Church and the fresh winds of the Spirit blowing through our lives and congregations. The present hiatus between academic theology and true ministry in the Church must be overcome. “In a class by itself. Offers intelligent scholarship combined with heart for ministry.” “Combines the cool atmosphere of reasoned theology with the passion of hands-on pastoral ministry.” “The best investment of my time for journal reading. It combines accurate research and literary scholarship with a commitment to the noblest of theological excellence and a passion to see God-sent revival in our day.” “This ACT 3 Review is a must read for me as a very busy Christian leader.” Doctrinal Perspective The ACT 3 Review staff is committed to the historical Christian faith as expressed in the ecumenical creeds of the Church and the evangelical confessions of the Protestant Reformation. We believe the Church to be the “one, holy, catholic and apostolic” community and the Holy Scriptures the infallible Word of God written which should act as the supreme court in all matters of Christian doctrine. “Demonstrates balance in theology and Christian living . . . helpful, instructive and encouraging.” “The ACT 3 Review focuses faithfully and tirelessly on regrounding Protestants in the vulnerable, life-giving treasures of the Church, Scripture and tradition. A vital service to the church evangelical and catholic.” Editorial Staff The editor-in-chief of ACT 3 Review is John H. Armstrong. He is assisted by a team of talented associate editors and by more than forty contributing editors who are respected Christian leaders and scholars. John brings over twenty years of pastoral experience to the journal joined with a world-wide ministry of speaking and writing over the past thirteen years. “The editors provide a beacon for ecclesiastical and cultural reformation grounded in Word and Spirit.” “Anchored in the classic tradition of the church while charting a way into the future that is not new or innovative but deeply rooted in the past and connected to God’s work throughout history.” Objective Our goal is to provide a thoughtful publication that will strengthen individual readers and whole congregations. The style cultivated is non-technical though reliable and challenging. Our readers are ministers, scholars and ordinary Christians. They share in common a desire to grow in their faith. “At a time when many churches and pulpits are driven by modernity, this review combines mind and heart in presenting topics which ignite reformation and revival.” “Provides a prophetic voice for evangelicals who want to connect current issues with the ancient faith.”
