      Dear Diotrephes : Whats Our Position

      $27.48

      These letters were written to various friends, critics, and inquisitors who were trying to learn our position on the prevailing issues in the Church of Christ. Asking for help was enough to uncover other issues. Everyone felt compelled to “take a stand” on every issue. I was searching for help due to my failing eyesight and a concern for my wife and six children. When I asked whether James 5:14 had really “passed away,” as they said, where could I go for help? I learned that hardly any of them believed the Bible. They just said they did. I was told that there were 27 branches of us. The introduction of the healing question doubled the number, so we had 54. The Holy Spirit question caused further division, so we had 108 sects. Speaking in tongues, professional clergy, and fellowship issues made 216 socioreligious sects. Voila! How is that for growth?

      Israel And The Church

      $32.99

      Modern Israel and its relations with its Arab neighbors has been conspicuously in the daily news ever since World War II. Until that time, the concept of Israel and a continuing Jewish people had been hovering in the distant background of Christian thought and doctrine since the post-apostolic era. In this important work, Dr. Diprose demonstrates the uniqueness of Israel and its special place in the divine plan.

      By carefully reviewing relevant New Testament and post-apostolic writings, the author traces the origin and development of Replacement Theology-the concept that the Church has completely and permanently replaced ethnic Israel in the outworking of God’s plan throughout history-challenging its origin and role in the development of Christian thought on the future of ethnic Israel.

      Postcolonial Theologies

      $32.99

      A theology in tune with postcolonial theory has the potential to creatively inform and transform ecclesial practice. Focusing on the relation of theology to postcolonial theory, Postcolonial Theologies brings together a wide diversity of authors, many of them fresh and exciting theological voices, in essays that are stunningly creative and prophetically lucid. All essays are theologically constructive, not merely deconstructive or critical, in their visions for Christianity. Forming a sort of doctrinal landscape, they emerge under the themes of theological anthropology shaped by ethnicity, class, and privilege; a Christology that intersects the claims of Christ and empire; and a Cosmology that imagines a postcolonial world.
      Essays and contributors include:
      * Introduction: Alien/nation, Liberation, and the Postcolonial Underground
      * Complacencies and Cul-de-sacs: Christian Theologies and Colonialism, R.S. Sugirtharajah
      * Spirit and Liberation: Achieving Postcolonial Theology in the United States, Mark Lewis Taylor
      * Who Is Americana/o? Theological Anthropology, Postcoloniality, and the Spanish-Speaking Americas, Michelle Gonzalez
      * Monstrosities, Miracles, and Mission: Religion and the Politics of Disablement, Sharon Betcher
      * Who/What Is Asian? A Postcolonial Theological Reading of Orientalism and Neo-orientalism, Nam-Soon Kang

      Reclaiming The Center

      $25.00

      In Reclaiming the Center Millard J. Erickson, Paul Kjoss Helseth, and Justin Taylor have assembled a team of theologians and philosophers to examine the theological, philosophical, and historiographic assumptions of postconservatism evangelicalism. They argue that postconservatism is an innovative project fueled by an accommodation to postmodernism, and that there is a more theologically sound, philosophically informed, and historically accurate way to proceed.

      Reclaiming the Center is a valuable contribution to any pastor or student’s study of where contemporary evangelicalism stands today, but also a guide for how we can move forward with wisdom and discernment while not succumbing to the spirit of this age.

      Honest To God

      $35.99

      This is the edited collection of papers given at the recent symposium, Honest to God, Forty Years On. Following the 40th anniversary of the publication of Honest to God, by John Robinson, the symposium was held to discuss how far the issues raised in the book 40 years ago, have impacted on the Church and on current Christian thought, and to ask where we are in the debate about these issues today. This is a contemporary discussion with a forward-looking attitude. The book reflects the discussions and divides into four main areas covering; Culture and Context, how the original text Honest to God, tried to relate doctrine to contemporary thought, and the situation today ; God Language in Honest to God and God Language now, Behaviour and Belief, has religion been reduced to ethics?; The Christology of Honest to God and what Jesus means to us now. Featuring an introduction by the Dean of Southwark, Colin Slee, Honest to God, Forty Years On is an engaging text for any reader with an interest in comparative religious studies.

      Christian Faith And The Problem Of Evil Print On Demand Title

      $38.99

      A Print on Demand Title

      The problem of evil has challenged religious minds and hearts throughout the ages. Just how can the presence of suffering, tragedy, and wrongdoing be squared with the all-powerful, all-loving God of faith? This book gathers some of the best, most meaningful recent reflections on the problem of evil, with contributions by shrewd thinkers in the areas of philosophy, theology, literature, linguistics, and sociology.

      In addition to bringing new insights to the old problem of evil, Christian Faith and the Problem of Evil is set apart from similar volumes by the often-novel approaches its authors take to the subject. Many of the essays pursue classic lines in speculative philosophy, but others address the problem of evil through biblical criticism, the thought of Simone Weil, and the faith of battered women and African American slaves. As a result, this book will interest a wide range of readers.

      Teaching As Believing

      $58.31

      The public university classroom is a place where socialization still occurs: it’s where students learn to be citizens of the world. Having attended to political correctness and multi-culturalism, universities are now facing the issue of spirituality in their quest to educate the whole person. In this book, Chris Anderson takes up this task by carefully exploring how a professor of faith can help a public university accomplish its pluralistic mission. Anderson illustrates how the study of secular literature throws fresh light on the ways in which the Bible can be read. He also deftly shows how a sympathetic study of the Bible trains secular readers for understanding the abiding significance of the Western literary canon as a kind of scripture. Anderson thus gives readers a book that is as much about the experience of a faithful teacher and the proper ends of education as it is about discovering the right ways to read texts-be they sacred or secular.

      Kingdom Of Christ

      $25.00

      Never before has there been a thorough examination of the new “Kingdom” consensus among evangelicals on many former theological points of contention and its effects. In The Kingdom of Christ: The New Evangelical Perspective, Russell D. Moore relates the history leading up to this consensus from the time theologian Carl F. H. Henry called for it fifty years ago. He then examines how this consensus offers a renewed theological foundation for evangelical engagement in the social and political realms.

      While evangelical scholars and pastors will be interested in this sharp, insightful book, evangelicals involved in public policy will also find it useful in discovering how this new evangelical Kingdom perspective will play out in the public square.

      Heaven On Earth

      $29.99

      The temple stood at the very heart of Israelite religion and casts its shadow across Christian faith and spirituality. The temple is the biblical symbol par excellence of the glory of God’s presence with his people. Any Christian theology that attempts to grapple with God’s indwelling of creation, with heaven on earth, must get to grips with the meaning of the temple and its fulfillment in Christ and his body, the church. In this book evangelical scholars examine the temple in all the key Old and New Testament documents, from Genesis to Revelation and then consider its contemporary significance. This book not only makes an important contribution to the study of the temple in various biblical texts but also to the project of a unified Biblical Theology and its implications for Systematic Theology.

      Exploring And Proclaiming The Apostles Creed

      $31.99

      Foreword by Geoffrey Wainwright

      Doctrinal preaching has fallen on hard times in recent years. Exploring and Proclaiming the Apostles’ Creed seeks to stimulate renewed interest in – and provide useful models of – Christian proclamation that is truly rooted in the central tenets of the faith. Using the Apostles’ Creed as a template for doctrinal, confessional preaching, this book draws together an ecumenical cast of respected biblical scholars and preachers who explain the creed and demonstrate its preaching possibilities. Each of the book’s fifteen chapters consists of an essay that explores and illuminates one of the creed’s articles of faith, followed by a scintillating sermon that models how that article can be preached as good news today.

Including several pieces never published before, this reader aptly captures the broad scope of Wyschogrod’s work on Judaism and the Jewish-Christian encounter, collecting seminal essays, articles, and reviews that address such topics as the God of Abraham and the God of philosophy, sin and atonement, Judaism and the land, the Six Day War, Paul on Jews and Gentiles, and the theology of Karl Barth. An introductory essay by editor R. Kendall Soulen sets Wyschogrod’s career and writings in context.

      Spirit And Resistance

      $36.66

      Writing from a Native American perspective, theologian George Tinker probes American Indian culture, its vast religious and cultural legacy, and its ambiguous relationship to the tradition–historic Christianity–that colonized and converted it. After five hundred years of conquest and social destruction, he says, any useful reflection must come to terms with the political state of Indian affairs and the political hopes and visions for recovering the health and well-being of Indian communities. Does Christian theology have a positive role to play? Tinker’s work offers an overview of contemporary native American culture and its perilous state. Critical of recent liberal and New Age co-opting of Native spiritual practices, Tinker also offers a critical corrective to liberation theology. He shows how Native insights into the Sacred Other and sacred space helpfully reconfigure traditional ideas of God, Jesus’ notion of the reign of God, and our relation to the earth. From this basis he offers novel proposals about cultural survival and identity, sustainability, and the endangered health of Native Americans.

      Additional Info
      In this comprehensive study, G.K. Beale argues that the Old Testament tabernacle and temples were symbolically designed to point to the end-time reality that God’s presence, formerly limited to the Holy of Holies, would be extended throughout the cosmos. Hence, John’s vision in Revelation 21 is best understood as picturing the new heavens and earth as the eschatological temple. Beal’s stimulating exposition traces the theme of the tabernacle and temple across the Bible’s story line, illuminating many texts and closely related themes along the way. He shows how the significance and symbolism of the temple can be better understood in the context of ancient Near Eastern assumptions, and offers new insights into the meaning of the temple in both Old and New Testaments.

      “We have been drifting into a muddle and a mess, putting together bits and pieces of traditions, ideas and practices in the hope that they will make sense. They don’t. There may be times when a typical Anglican fudge is a pleasant, chewy sort of thing, but this isn’t one of them. It’s time to think and speak clearly and act decisively.”
      With these robust words Tom Wright, Bishop of Durham, throws down a challenge to current liturgy and practice surrounding All Saints’ and All Souls’ Days, and sets out to clarify our thinking about what happens to people after they die. Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory, what it means to pray for the dead, what (and who) are the saints, are all addressed in this invigorating and rigorously argued book.

      In this book, Rapske uses ancient literary sources and archaeological evidence to uncover important background on the custodial system of the Graeco-Roman world in order to better view Paul’s persona and Christian mission. This study shows Luke to be keenly aware of the practical and theological threat that imprisonment posed for Paul and argues that this understanding motivated one of Luke’s primary objectives in his writing of Luke-Acts to defend or justify the prisoner missionary Paul to the reader.

      There Shall Be No More Among You

      $28.99

      There Shall Be No Poor Among You is a careful and comprehensive but not overly technical study of the biblical portrait of the poor and poverty. Hoppe introduces the study with the socioeconomic structures of ancient Israel and Roman Palestine, then proceeds systematically to examine the biblical evidence, including that of the Old Testament, New Testament, Apocrypha, and rabbinic literature.

      The Bible describes the poor and poverty in a variety of ways. Sometimes poverty is a curse; other times it is a blessing. Sometimes the text is concerned about material poverty exclusively; other times poverty becomes a metaphor for another reality. Hoppe describes the various ways the Bible deals with the poor, but his fundamental conclusion is that the Bible never idealizes the reality of material poverty and the oppression of the poor by the rich. Even when the Bible speaks of “poverty of the spirit” as a positive religious metaphor, God requires humans to seek social justice.

      Hoppe suggests that just as poverty is not idealized in the Bible, so the poor should be a priority of every community of faith. Ancient Israel, early Judaism, Jesus, and the first Christians did not forget the poor, and if believers today wish to be faithful to their biblical heritage, neither can they.

      This book provides a practical background for scholars and is a primer for a significant theological motif. It will be useful in the classroom (in college and seminary courses in biblical ethics and social justice), as well as in serious Bible study. Study questions will help readers and students further probe history, theology, and application.

      Beyond The Passion

      $40.00

      For most Christian believers, what is truly remarkable and important about Jesus is not his life, but his resurrection from the dead. They may believe that Jesus’ death is significant not as the end of Jesus’ life, but as the first half of the saving event that comprises the Christian gospel: the death and resurrection of Jesus. For Christians, this great divine cosmic event, around which all of human history pivots, is what saves us from our sins. Apart from this, the death of Jesus would simply be the meaningless end to an interesting but insignificant life. In this lively and provocative work, Patterson reconstructs early Christian assessments of Jesus’ significance and also questions basic assumptions about modern interpretations of Jesus’ death. He emphasizes the importance of Jesus’ life in relation to his death and resurrection. And he challenges individualistic notions of how Jesus’ death relates to Christian ethics.

      Repentance 1 : The Doctrine Of God And The Knowledge Of Salvation

      $34.98

      This work is written with a law enforcement officer’s investigative mindset and from the perspective of a prisoner. I discovered through a survey of Christian bookstores that no books were exclusively on or about repentance, but most only touched on the topic. The only author who had anything to say about repentance beyond a mere mention was Charles G. Finney in Finney’s Systematic Theology. This 600-page work transformed my thinking and influenced my investigation. This book discusses spiritual leadership without bashing any spiritual leader. It points out carnality without castigating any particular ministry or denomination. Hundreds of illustrations will familiarize the reader with revelations about repentance and carnality. These illustrations, like parables, contain revolutionary truths that are true to Scripture, reason, and life, so that Repentance: The Doctrine of God may become one harmonious revelation!

      Spirit In The Cities

      $30.00

      In recent decades economic dislocation, immigration, new architecture, and other forces have transformed the physical, social, and even religious landscape of large cities. There gleaming skyscrapers tower over struggling ghettos, abandoned businesses mar upscale shopping areas, and tall-steeple churches sometimes languish where storefront mosques thrive. Exploring the religious significance of this new urban landscape, the Workgroup on Constructive Theology traveled to select cities and found an exciting and vibrant and multivoiced new religious spirit at work there. In these chapters, leading American theologians delve deeply into the contemporary spiritual geographies of five cities, capturing, through a mix of personal narrative, historical narrative, political analysis, and theological rumination, some sense of this new sacred space and the spirit aborning there.

      Postmodern Life Cycle

      $24.99

      “Friedrich Schweitzer is knowledgeable of both European and American cultural shifts into postmodernity. This well-written account of the impacts of media saturation, the relativization of religious authority, and the rapid global emergence of varieties of spiritual orientations and practices, is the first of its kind. Schweitzer’s knowledge of practices of faith and his mastery of the available research literature on posmodern conditions make this work indispensable for religious leaders, students of postmodernity, and a broad reading public. A great achievement!”

      From Hurt To Healing

      $23.99

      At any gathering, you will likely see both abusers and victims. In Christian theology, we have approached these two very different types of people with a single solution. Having drawn a map of salvation for sinners, we ignore the victims, making it their responsibility to find their way back to peace. Park argues it is time for the church and its theology to remedy this situation by using an Asian religious concept called han–the psychic and spiritual pain caused by unjust oppression–as a way of healing the wounds of abuse and violence.

      In The Beginning Creativity

      $45.00

      Gordon Kaufman’s bold and highly regarded works over the last thirty years have pushed theologians to examine honestly, if painfully, their most cherished assumptions about God. Now, in this major contribution to the theology-and-science debate, he argues that our traditional thinking about and worship of God have prepared us badly for perhaps the most important problem we face today–the ecological crisis.
      Kaufman begins with a survey of the pluriform development and effects of the notion of God. He then demonstrates how these concepts of God have become out of sync with contemporary understandings of the world and humanity. He offers an alternative concept by distinguishing the different modalities of creativity as they figure in the creation of the universe, the cosmic evolutionary process (especially the emergence of life), and human symbolic creativity. Finally, he sketches their interconnections and demonstrates in what way they stand for the divine. This volume not only develops further than ever before Kaufman’s idea of God as creativity but also shows what it would mean to think of God in this way, to live with faith in this God, and to cooperate with the divine in meeting our most pressing challenges.

      True Sexual Morality

      $40.00

      Daniel Heimbach examines the meaning and structure of the moral standards given by God to govern sexual behavior and celebrates the preciousness and goodness of sexuality governed by God. He also explains and critiques four opposing views on sexual morality that are deceiving so many into thinking that biblical standards are oppressive.

      With a look to the future of mankind’s sexual morality, Heimbach examines what Jesus and many New Testament writers say will happen if we continue down our current path. This book will awaken and equip Christian workers, pastors, parents, and young adults to be alert and faithful in a culture that is growing ever more bitterly opposed to biblical sexual standards.

      Religious Thought And The Modern Psychologies (Revised)

      $65.00

      The first edition of this book pioneered a broader and deeper critique of psychological theories and practices. Informed by hermeneutical theory, Browning’s widely acclaimed work drew attention to the ethical and even religious assumptions underlying psychology and has been deeply influential in psychology, pastoral counseling, and practical theology.
      In this edition, Browning and his new co-author show how the field of social science has indeed grasped and appropriated the hermeneutical approach, though with only slight appreciation of the religious dimensions of the social-scientific endeavor. The new first chapter situates the discussion, and the core chapters of the book are updated. Two other new chapters include dialogue with psychotherapeutic theorists and evangelical writers on the relation of theology and psychology. This work will set the stage for the religion-psychology conversation for years to come.

      God Of Old

      $18.99

      Our notion of God today — all-powerful, invisible, and omnipresent — is not the same as the God of the Hebrew Bible. So who is this “God of Old?” And what is His place in the modern spiritual world?

      James Kugel is renowned for his investigations into the history of the biblical era, a time beginning more than three thousand years ago, when the Bible’s earliest parts first took shape. With The God of Old, Kugel goes even deeper, attempting to enter the pages of the Old Testament and see God as the Israelites first encountered him.

      The God of Old appeared to people unexpectedly; He was not sought out. Often He was not even recognized, at first mistaken for an ordinary human being. The realm of the divine was not as it is today — a spiritual dimension set off from the material world. The spiritual and the material overlapped, and the realm of the dead was a real domain just beyond the world of the living. Ordinary reality was in constant danger of sliding into something else, something stark but oddly familiar. And God was always standing just behind the curtain of the everyday world.

      In this groundbreaking study, Kugel suggests that this alternative spirituality is not simply an archaic relic, replaced by a “better” understanding. Kugel’s picture of the God of Old has much to tell us about God’s very nature, and about the encounter between Him and human beings in today’s world.

      A book to treasure side by side with the Bible, The God of Old is sure to engage scholars and spiritual seekers alike for years to come.
