“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.

“This collection of columns from four decades offers a treasure trove of timeless reflection on the timely. Dr. Sproul tackles football, commer- cials, 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 reflec- tion. Here you will find wisdom that never goes out of style.”

—Dr. Stephen J. Nichols

“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
