Why Have You Forsaken Me
$29.99In this powerful book on the experience of desolation John Colwell focuses on Psalm 22, read in the light of his own struggle with bi-polar disorder and the Christian belief that God the Son suffered in his humanity, to offer existential-theological reflections on the experience of God-forsakenness.
‘My concern in writing this book and reading this psalm is to reflect on the felt experience of God-forsakenness, my own and that of Christ in the light of this psalm; to explore the theological and spiritual significance of this felt experience for myself, for Christ, for Christians generally. If this exploration proves to be helpful to me or to others then obviously I am glad, but I am not writing this book to be helpful but rather to be truthful (and perhaps hopeful). This is a personal journey of reflection with a psalm which I invite you, the reader, to share if you will.’

Rhythm Of Doctrine
$24.99Traditionally systematic theology is structured aroung the Creed’s articles. While this approach has its benefits it is not without flaws. One weakness is that the roots of theology in Christian worship can be lost sight of and discussions become abstract. But there is another way to structure systematic theology, an approach explicity rooted in the rhythm of the pattern of liturgy.
John Colwell provides a short, inspiring introduction to a systematic theology that is built around the worshipful rhythms of the Christian Year. In this ancient-future way Christian worship, theology and discipleship are woven into a seamless garment.
