Christian Living

“Tony Reinke offers a succinct exposé of the threat that our image-saturated society poses to faith and to wisdom. Just as the noisiness of modern life so often prevents us from hearing God’s voice, so mass-mediated images blind us from seeing Christ in the church, in the world, and in the face of our neighbor. Reinke’s warning is that of the watchman who sees ‘the sword coming against the land.’ We’ll do well to heed his message.”

Money Matters

Work, Money & Leadership

“Thinking Christianly about money is one of the more important, but also one of the more difficult challenges facing the followers of Christ today, in the East as well as in the West. By grounding their consideration of money in their own very different personal narratives—East and West—Lim and Stevens treat their readers with wisdom as well as any number of important insights into the ubiquitous role that money plays in our lives today.”

MonoThreeism

Theology

“Five parts Socrates to three parts David Hume to two parts Calvin & Hobbes, Lyonhart provides ordinary lay readers with a disarmingly sophisticated account of the Trinity, the church, free will, faith, morality, love, and, as Douglas Adams might have put it, “life, the universe, and everything.” MonoThreeism may well be absurdly arrogant, but it is also enormously useful, as well as being a good deal of fun. I can hardly wait to recommend it to my students.”

The Promise of Social Enterprise

Work, Money & Leadership

“Just as the associations that comprise civil society shelter us from the narrow and often harsh logic of modern economic life . . . , so the notion of ‘social enterprise’ would seem to offer a creative and constructive alternative. . . . Drawing on the work of a wide range of thinkers, Sampson argues that ‘social enterprise’ does indeed offer a genuine alternative, an alternative energized by the mutuality that has been made possible by the Christ gift.”
