  Baptists And The Catholic Tradition

  $32.00

  Barry Harvey provides a doctrine of the church that combines Baptist distinctives and origins with an unbending commitment to the visible church as the social body of Christ. Speaking to the broader Christian community, Harvey updates, streamlines, and recontextualizes the arguments he made in an earlier edition of this book (Can These Bones Live?). This new edition offers a contemporary revival of “Baptist Catholicity,” a style of ecclesial witness that can help Christian churches engage culture. The author suggests new ways Baptists can engage ecumenically with Catholics and other Protestants, offers insights for Christian worship and practice, and shows how the fragmented body of Christ can be re-membered after Christendom.

  StormFront : The Good News Of God

  $23.99

  How does one authentically hear and live out the gospel in North America? This new book attempts to answer this question in a way that reveals much about the nature of Christian faith today and its relation to contemporary culture.

  In keeping with the aims of the acclaimed Gospel and Our Culture series, “StormFront” investigates how the gospel intersects American culture and seeks to reorient the church to its full and proper missional vocation. Four authors noted for their understanding of modern church life offer a sober yet hopeful critique of American culture that focuses on consumerism and the privatization of religion, and they challenge the Christian church to embrace its corporate task to be salt and light to the world.

  Amid the many books on the subject, this one is distinctive in its concern for application. By constrasting contemporary life with a thoroughgoing reading of the biblical narrative, the authors help American Christians discern how our cultural location makes it difficult to live out the transformative message of the gospel. Few readers will fail to be engaged by the lessons offered here.

  Another City

  $36.95

  What is the church, and what is essential to it particularly in a post-Christian age? In contrast to “the City,” that is, the world(including the hedonism and narcissism of popular culture) that virtually all human beings now inhabit, the author calls upon the church to remember that it is “Another City” that does not compromise itself by giving allegiance to any political entity that belongs to this world. Instead, the church has the courage to live, like Isreal of old, in the diaspora as distinct minority, remaining an uncompromising and faithful servant of God’s final(though still future) triumph in the risen Christ.
