Face to Face

I am grateful for Marty Folsom's book Face to Face. His book is warmhearted and conversational as he guides his readers toward the goodness and generosity of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I have deep respect for the theological wisdom and evenhandedness of Folsom as a pastoral/theological writer.

--Earl Palmer, Earl Palmer Ministries

This book is a joyful accompaniment to theological dialogue that emphasizes the relational love at the heart and being of the triune God. In a thoughtful, gracious, and personal way, Folsom reminds us of the thoughtful, gracious, and personal way God is . . . with us, restoring us and renewing our basic understanding of God and ourselves. This is transformational, descriptive theology that comes from a living, exposing, renewing encounter with the loving God.

--Cherith Fee Nordling, Northern Seminary

Profound and personal, Marty Folsom offers us theologically informed insight into love--grounded in the Trinity, extended to us in Jesus Christ, and made available to us by the Spirit. If we are created for relationships of love with God and others, then this intensive and extensive meditation on love is where any and every theology worthy of the name must start and end.
