Embodied Performance

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Sarah Agnew’s work is truly interdisciplinary. It engages with, and effectively introduces, traditional biblical scholarship on the Epistle to the Romans, narrative criticism of the Bible, and theatre studies on the relationship between the audience, the performer, and the text. The book weaves these themes, and many others, into a highly engaging and personal story of discovery of importance to anyone who takes the Bible seriously and wants to understand it better. Her perspective as performer-interpreter, and her development of ‘Embodied Performance Analysis,’ offers significant insights for biblical scholars and church people alike.”

Introducción al Nuevo Testamento

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Es una edición bienvenida de un libro de texto introductorio ya excelente. Esta edición revisada ofrece nueva y extensiva información antecedente de los contextos Romanos y Judíos del Nuevo Testamento. Los capítulos sobre cada libro del Nuevo Testamento han sido modificados y extendidos de una manera que mejora, no oscurece, la materia y que ofrece una gran cantidad de información. . . . Para los que enseñan clases introductorias del Nuevo Testamento, y sus estudiantes, la materia nueva y las ilustraciones ampliamente revisadas en esta edición revisada hacen este libro una inversión excelente.”

Literature and Religion

Arts & Literature

“To read this fascinating book is to overhear a gracious, informed, and honest conversation between friends whose life experiences could scarcely be more different. But in that difference, and in the quality of that friendship and the willingness to seek out new understandings, there is profound revelation which we are privileged to share. Through the translation of literature in its widest sense, the cultures and religions of China and ‘the West’ are mutually illuminated.”

Reading the Margins

Arts & Literature

“Michael J. Gilmour demonstrates with flair and imagination that, as he claims, stories do indeed "shape the way we view the world." Wide-ranging, personal, authentic, and discursive, his book challenges the way we encounter the Bible in literature and literature in the Bible.”

Tea with Thomas Boston

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“This volume feeds the soul with the theological and pastoral insights of Thomas Boston, in a format which is accessible to all. A voice from the past speaks again for the present believer, and it is as powerful now as it was for his original flock. Dr. Tse is to be thanked for this labor of love and his commitment to the arresting idea of taking the most appropriate tea available in the company of Thomas Boston.”
