As editorial director for The Gospel Coaliton I’m tasked with developing and distributing our content, whether published on our website and in books or featured at our national conferences. It’s my privilege to work with a team committed to promoting gospel-centered ministry for the next generation. Over the course of six years our staff has grown as we’ve ventured into new subjects and media. All along we’ve looked for editors with different perspectives and experiences, yet united in the gospel of Jesus Christ and in TGC’s confessional statement and theological vision. The same is true of our colleagues working in Spanish and French and in Australia and soon Canada.

Our three newest editors, starting this month and next, each brings new skills and gifts to our staff and ultimately to our readers through his knowledge and relationships with writers around the world. With experience as leaders in their local churches, we trust these editors will uphold our priorities by writing and acquiring resources that: 

  • Offer gospel-centered argument and application
  • Include faithful and foundational use of Scripture, both Old Testament and New Testament
  • Foster spiritual discernment of contemporary trials and trends
  • Encourage efforts to unite and renew the church 

We invite you to join us in welcoming Sam, Jason, and Timo.

Sam Allberry focuses on pastoral ministry and Bible/theology for The Gospel Coalition. He is a speaker for Ravi Zacharias Ministries and a pastor of St. Mary’s Church in Maidenhead, UK, and previously worked on the ministry team at St Ebbe’s in Oxford. He is the author of several books, including Why Bother with Church? And Other Questions About Why You Need It and Why It Needs You (Good Book, 2016), Is God Anti-Gay? And Other Questions about Homosexuality, the Bible, and Same-Sex Attraction (Good Book, 2013), Connected: Living in the Light of the Trinity (P&R, 2013), and Lifted: Experiencing the Resurrection Life (P&R, 2012). He is one of the coordinators of Living Out, a ministry for those struggling with same-sex attraction. You can follow Sam on Twitter.

Jason Cook focuses on pastoral ministry and integrating faith and work for The Gospel Coalition. He is associate pastor of preaching at Fellowship Memphis. He earned his MDiv from Beeson Divinity School in Birmingham, Alabama, where he helped to build Iron City Church, a multi-ethnic ministry in one of America’s most segregated cities. He earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Mississippi on a football scholarship. He is married to Courtney, and they have two children, Charlie and Cager.

Is there enough evidence for us to believe the Gospels?

In an age of faith deconstruction and skepticism about the Bible’s authority, it’s common to hear claims that the Gospels are unreliable propaganda. And if the Gospels are shown to be historically unreliable, the whole foundation of Christianity begins to crumble.
But the Gospels are historically reliable. And the evidence for this is vast.
