Christ Across The Disciplines
$25.99In Christ across the Disciplines a group of distinguished scholars from across the theological spectrum explores the dynamic relationship between the Christian faith and the life of the mind. Although the essays in this volume are rooted in a rich understanding of the past, they focus primarily on how Christian students, teachers, and scholars might best meet the challenges of intellectual and cultural life in a global world.
This book ranges widely over the broad terrain of contemporary academic and cultural life, covering such topics as the enormous growth of political activism in late twentieth-century evangelicalism, the dynamics of literature and faith in the African-American experience, the dramatic implications of globalization for those who profess Christ and practice the life of the mind, and more!

Ranging across disciplines, Lundin explores the works of literary thinkers—including Emily Dickinson, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Karl Barth—to show how the modern mind stood poised between faith and skepticism, and how it challenged unbelief with creative brilliance.

Emily Dickinson And The Art Of Belief (Revised)
$31.99Garnishing awards from “Choice,” “Christianity Today,” “Books & Culture,” and the Conference on Christianity and Literature when first published in 1998, Roger Lundin’s “Emily Dickinson and the Art of Belief” has been widely recognized as one of the finest biographies of the great American poet Emily Dickinson. Paying special attention to her experience of faith, Lundin skillfully relates Dickinson’s life as it can be charted through her poems and letters to nineteenth-century American political, social, religious, and intellectual history.
This second edition of Lundin’s superb work includes a standard bibliography, expanded notes, and a more extensive discussion of Dickinson’s poetry than the first edition contained. Besides examining Dickinson’s singular life and work in greater depth, Lundin has also keyed all poem citations to the recently updated standard edition of Dickinson’s poetry. Already outstanding, Lundin’s biography of Emily Dickinson is now even better than before.

Literature Through The Eyes Of Faith
$15.99This comprehensive study, cosponsored by the Christian College Coalition, addresses questions faced by students in introductory literature courses. It examines literature as a form of human action and argues that the reading and writing of literary works provide vital ways for men and women to act as responsible agents in God’s world.
Building upon the doctrine of Creation, the authors show how the reading of literature helps us to be more effective interpreters of the stories and images we encounter daily. They demonstrate that great works of literature open up a realm of beauty and truth and help us gain an understanding of ourselves, God, and the world.

Culture Of Interpretation A Print On Demand Title
$31.99This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. A bold, ambitious undertaking, this book offers a broad-ranging account of contemporary American culture, the complex network of symbols, practices, and beliefs at the heart of our society. Writing from a well-considered Christian perspective, Roger Lundin explores the historical background of some of our “postmodern” culture’s central beliefs and examines the crucial ethical and theological implications of those beliefs.The goal of Lundin’s sweeping cultural analysis is to initiate a meaningful dialogue – within the Christian church about the relationship of Christ to contemporary culture, and outside the church about the nature of the self and of truth. The Culture of Interpretation will be of interest to educated general readers, to scholars in various disciplines (philosophy, history, sociology, English, etc.), and to Christian graduate students in theology and the humanities.
