Of Rhetoric and Redemption in La Rioja

Fiction

“Fans of classical and biblical studies find a warmed hearth in Jim Tallmon's ambitiously imaginative rendering of two first-century giants. He makes it work with a combination of snappy dialogue and frenetically plotted apostolic ministry, all against the backdrop of St. Paul's conclusive epistle writing and impending martyrdom. I was left plausibly wondering whether maybe, just maybe, Paul and Quintilian might have been friends and collaborators, even if briefly.”

The Gospel and the Mind

Christian Living

“Green turns relentless scholarship and a forensic eye on a set of controversial questions: Does one’s mind matter when it comes to faith? and Is it possible not to be a Christian and still have a genuine intellectual life? Contrasting the pre-modern assumption of the beatific vision with nihilistic modernism, Green makes a compelling case for the necessity of Christianity, both for personal fulfillment and cultural progress. In the end, Green makes a compelling call for an evangelical re-examination of the need to shape minds in the context of Christ’s cross.”
