Campus Resources from IVP ’14
"Live" . . . Over the weekend I posted Campus Resources from InterVarsity Press: 2014-2015 Academic Year Edition in the media section of the Emerging Scholars Network (ESN)'s website and now it's on the blog too :) With a tweaking of the format, we've tried as much as possible to weave the new releases into the rich selection offered last year.
