On Being in the Middle

Theology

“In this beautifully penned book, W. J. de Kock guides us on an enchanting journey, urging us to uncover the ‘moved mover’ God residing within ourselves, permeating the in-between spaces. His is a theology within a theology, weaving the compelling narrative of theology as a practice of ‘being in the middle’ with an unmatched blend of thriller-like suspense, energy, empathy, and academic profundity. Rest assured, readers will find themselves enriched and invigorated by this book.”

The Trinitarian Dharma

Theology

“The Trinitarian Dharma is a masterfully crafted, riveting, and distinctly inspiring work that radiates theological creativity and brilliance. It boldly dares to present a contextual systematic theology of the Trinity with unwavering fidelity to the gospel, resolutely refusing to compromise its essence on the altar of inculturation. Pabitra Mani Bhandari emerges as a luminous voice among a new generation of Asian theologians—one who transcends the reactive shadows of Western Christianity and Asian religious pluralism, engaging both as dynamic and critical partners. In this groundbreaking work, Bhandari weaves a symphony of theological depth, interreligious insight, and intercultural resonance, boldly charting new territories in contextualized systematic theology.”

Under the Shade Tree

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Under the Shade Tree is a bold expression of biblical hermeneutics—a resistance against cultural and religious erasure in the art of interpreting Scripture. It invites us into the heart of the human library, not only as the locus but as the very reason for engaging Scripture. In the African context, this engagement has become an imperative, an obligation, and indeed, an emergency. Under the Shade Tree is not merely a book—it is a game-changer. It offers an immersive journey into a world where Scripture becomes alive in context. By the time you finish reading, you will not want to close the book—you will want to begin again. This work opens up fresh mindsets, reshaping how readers engage with the Bible across Africa and beyond.”
