"Many authors can tell you what the Bible is, and how to read it. Many others can offer wisdom to face life’s problems. Few can do both. Mike Emlet wonderfully bridges the two worlds. CrossTalk not only gives us numerous examples of applying the Scriptures to daily life but models how to go about it on our own. This book is a marvelous resource for anyone who wants to know how to navigate the often troubled waters of personal experience. It is well-suited for lay people and professional ministers alike. "
- William Edgar, Professor of Apologetics, Westminster Theological Seminary, author of Truth in All Its Glory

"Ministry of the Word happens somewhere in between the proof-text snippet and the broad generalities of redemptive history. God’s person, promises, purposes, actions, and commands catch fire in a person’s struggle with personal sins and situational struggles. Mike Emlet probes for the places truth ignites and probes for the ways Christ indwells hearts and conversations. "
- David Powlison, Faculty and Counselor, CCEF, and author of Seeing with New Eyes and Speaking Truth in Love

"This is simply the best book about the nature and function of the Bible that I have ever read! Dr. Emlet has written a superb book, which anyone who wants to understand and apply the Bible really MUST read! "
- Samuel T. Logan, Jr., Former President, Westminster Theological Seminary

"CrossTalk isn't your typical cut-and-paste counseling guide. No, it's deeper and richer than that. Its pages are filled with light, demonstrating a gloriously redemptive interpretation of Scripture and deep understanding of the condition and needs of the human heart. I highly recommend it. "
- Elyse Fitzpatrick, Counselor, Institute for Biblical Counseling and Discipleship, an author of Women Helping Women
