"Our Christian assertion is that there is more to our lives than 'now.' If there is not then even the now is meaningless. But we say now counts. Why? Now counts because we are creatures who have an origin and a destiny which is rooted and grounded in God." --R.C. Sproul
There is no such thing as a meaningless moment. Since we're made in God's image and created for His eternal glory, everything we think, say, and do today matters forever. The question is, How should this truth direct our daily lives?
For more than forty years, Dr. R.C. Sproul wrote his recurring column in Tabletalk magazine, Right Now Counts Forever, to apply the teachings of the Bible and Reformed theology to everyday life. No topic was off-limits because every part of our lives bears enduring significance. Through the years, Dr. Sproul helped Christians give careful thought to topics in theology and history, politics and current events, relationships and entertainment, and more.
In this four-volume collection, hundreds of Dr. Sproul's columns have been brought together for the first time. Written to serve the church, this treasury of theological reflection can help guide believers of all ages to live with eternity in mind and devote all of life to the glory of God.
R. C. Sproul (1939-2017) served as Senior Minister of Preaching and Teaching at Saint Andrew's Chapel, and was Founder and President of Ligonier Ministries. He was Chancellor of Reformation Bible College, wrote more than one hundred books, and was heard daily on Renewing Your Mind. He earned degrees from Westminster College, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, and the University of Amsterdam.
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“R.C. Sproul was a rare theologian who explained the deepest of subjects in the simplest of terms, and he did so in a way that grabbed people’s attention and interest. His gifts shine in the column he regularly wrote, Right Now Counts Forever. On subjects from sports to politics to sexuality, and of course, the life of the church, Sproul’s wisdom and wit show us how the truth of God’s Word illuminates and transforms all of life”
Dr. Joel R. Beeke
President and professor of systematic theology and homiletics Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Grand Rapids, MI
“R.C. Sproul’s legacy is vast, including visual, audio, and print resources stimulating countless believers worldwide. Now, Ligonier has added to it with this thrilling thesaurus, gathered from more than forty years of his monthly contributions to Tabletalk. In the early years, he shared his spiritual perception of current affairs, including politics, economics, inflation, the newest A-list books and ‘the American dream’; it was as if he had all of these in one hand and his Bible in the other. In the later years, he was more immediately concerned with theological and doctrinal truths. His exposition and application of biblical revelation on subjects such as the doctrine of God, Christology, Jesus’ substitutionary death, atonement, the true nature of sin and the new birth, theodicy, the measure and manner of God’s forgiveness, conscience, Christian liberty, and scores of other subjects are brilliantly handled. “I do have a quibble. At one point he wrote, ‘There is nothing in my thought that hasn’t been said before far more eloquently than I can ever hope to articulate’—commendably modest, but thankfully untrue.”
Dr. John Blanchard
Preacher, teacher, apologist, and author Banstead, England
“You hold in your hand a veritable gold mine of Christian truth. Flowing from the pen of Dr. R.C. Sproul, here is his work of more than forty years writing his monthly column Right Now Counts Forever in Tabletalk magazine. Dr. Sproul was arguably the greatest teacher of theology in our generation. He was also a lucid and cogent writer, able to take profound truth and make it accessible to everyday readers. This book will take you to the heights of heaven as Dr. Sproul addresses a wide breadth of issues and topics. Though now seated in a cloud of witnesses above, Dr. Sproul continues to instruct us in the vital essentials of Christian living. This book should be required reading for every believer.”
Dr. Steven J. Lawson
President, OnePassion Ministries Dallas, TX
“This collection of columns from four decades offers a treasure trove of timeless reflection on the timely. Dr. Sproul tackles football, commercials, ethical issues, best-selling books, politics, and philosophy—and that’s merely the first year of columns alone. You will find wit and humor, always accompanied by deep and faithful theological and biblical reflection. Here you will find wisdom that never goes out of style.”
Dr. Stephen J. Nichols
President, Reformation Bible College Chief academic officer, Ligonier Ministries
“Spanning more than forty years, Dr. Sproul’s prophetic insights on a wide range of ethical and theological issues provide a fascinating histor- ical narrative of cultural change, both in society at large and, sadly, the evangelical church, as well as a breathtakingly clear Christian (biblical) response. Cultural attitudes may have changed as the effects of postmo- dernity took hold in the late twentieth century, but it is clear from these pages that the Bible is sufficient to address each one. I will be consulting this volume often as issues arise for which I need a clear biblical response.”
Dr. Derek W.H. Thomas
Senior minister, First Presbyterian Church Columbia, SC
