    CAROL SCOTT / CAITLIN SMITH GILSON
    The Seven cycles of poetry--rooted in each of Christ's Seven Last Words--intend a unified philosophical and theological dwelling.

    BRIDGET L. PIGGUE
    Our bodies are ALIVE is a statement suggesting that we physically and energetically exist as dynamic and active beings.

These narratives have the power to lodge within the scripts of our bodies while at the s...

    KELSEY L. AUSTIN-WRIGHT / NATHAN R. PATZKE
    On average, one in four adults aged eighteen to twenty-five claim abuse of various substances commonly referred to as "addiction."

    CLAUDIO TAGLIAPIETRA
    In 1967, Werner Heisenberg--Nobel Prize-winning physicist and pioneer of quantum mechanics--received an unexpected letter from a young Italian Jesuit named Enrico Cantore.

Drawing on newly uncovered materials...

  • DANIEL
    COLIN CHAPMAN
    To say that Daniel is a difficult book would be an understatement. We can easily be seduced by seemingly intelligent but actually misguided interpretations of Daniel's esoteric visions. Or we can be tempted to just give up trying to understand them. There is a better way. In this informed and readable book, Colin Chapman guides us towards making good sense of the Book of Daniel...

  • ABORTION ABOLITION
    ANDREA SMITH
    To quote Ruth Wilson Gilmore, "Abolition is not absence, it is presence." It is the creation of new systems and relationships that renders a practice or institution unnecessary. An abolition framework permits Christians to engage people across the current pro-life versus pro-choice divide and more effectively addresses the root causes of why there is abortion. This book is not ...

  • THE ANCIENT STORY OF GOD-WITH-US
    RAY C. ROBLES
    What is forming you? We often assume that our identities are formed and created only when we intend them to be. But what if our quest for discerning the deepest truths about ourselves, our God, and our world are already governed by appetites and ways of thinking that are so fixed in our collective imaginations, we don't even know that they're there? This book is aimed at exposi...

  • POETRY AND HEROISM
    RICHARD MCCOMBS
    Kierkegaard lamented that many people find life distressingly empty, devoid of consolation, and a cause for despair; and set out to provide a remedy to this malaise. As a "singular kind of poet and thinker," he employed a holistic approach, which he strikingly called "dialectical lyric," to the all-important question of how we should live. His poetic task is to praise ideals, a...

  • EVANGELISM RENEWED
    HENRY H. KNIGHT III
    Evangelism has entered a new day. From the 1980s to the present a vast array of new forms of evangelism have emerged, shaped and informed by theological reflection on the good news of Jesus Christ and the mission of God. Rejecting the reduced and formulaic forms of evangelism typical of most of the twentieth century, these newer approaches speak more of the reign and love of Go...

  • SPIRITUALISM AND PHENOMENOLOGY
    EMMANUEL FALQUE
    The conflict between spiritualism and phenomenology will no longer take place. Better, it is through their encounter and their backlash that a new fruitfulness for thought will develop. The case of Maine de Biran thus comes to exemplify a new beginning a la francaise for metaphysics on the one hand and for phenomenology on the other. But the philosopher from Bergerac (in the Do...

  • IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SCRIPTURES
    FR. JOHN BEHR
    This book explores the shape of Christian theology when seen by beginning from the proclamation of the gospel "in accordance with the Scriptures," that is, with the Scriptures (the "Old Testament") unveiled in the light of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, rather than presuming the later framework of "The Bible," with its distinct two testaments. Drawing upon writings...

  • AND UPON THIS ROCK
    SCOT MCKNIGHT
    Have we robbed Peter to pay Paul? Look at most evangelicals' bookshelves and plenty of pages feature Paul. Why not Peter? Why not the man who walked with Jesus and played a foundational part in the early church? This book invites the reader to take another look at the fisherman turned foundational leader. By looking at his early days walking with Jesus through the end of his li...

  • EATING WITH JESUS
    ROBERT D. CORNWALL
    You go to church on a Sunday morning. It's Communion Sunday and when it comes time for Communion, the presider issues an invitation on behalf of Jesus because it's Jesus' table, not the church's table. However, this invitation includes qualifiers. Are you baptized? Are you a member of the denomination? Do you affirm the church's doctrinal statement? Have you repented of your si...

  • PREACHING AND MUSIC
    CATHERINE E. WILLIAMS
    In the current conversation around what makes preaching compelling, Williams' voice is distinct: compelling sermons allow music to do its share of the preaching, as only music can. Whether through musically book-ending the sermon, drawing on popular music for illustrations, or turning a hymn into a series of mini-sermons, this volume explores several accessible ways to enrich s...

  • A FRONTLINE WORKER’S MANIFESTO
    DANIEL OUDSHOORN
    When journeying alongside those who are forcibly deprived of housing and shelter, it is rare to find a frontline worker who has been in their position for more than a few years. There is so much exploitation, trauma, and moral injury in this sector that the average rate of "burn-out" is two years. Thanks to the good company around me, I have been able to sustain myself in this ...

Doing so enriches the theology and spirituality of Pentecostalism and broadens its understanding of t...

    SUSAN J. PRESLEY

  • WHY I AM NOT A ROMAN CATHOLIC
    JERRY L. WALLS
    Anyone in the Christian church today who is paying attention knows that Roman Catholics are on the march to win converts. But what may be surprising is that many of the persons targeted for conversion are not unbelievers and secularists but rather Christians in other traditions, particularly evangelical Protestants. Those involved in this mission are themselves often converts f...

  • READING 1 PETER AFTER SUPERSESSIONISM
    PROF. KELLY D. LIEBENGOOD
    The central argument of this work is that 1 Peter does not promote a supersessionist view in which the church has replaced Israel as the new and true people of God. Rather, Liebengood contends that 1 Peter, as an authoritative Jewish apostolic text, extends to gentile followers of Jesus the privileges and promises originally given to Israel--affirming their full inclusion and b...
