James Denney (1856–1917)

History & Biography

“Jim Gordon's study of the theology of James Denney, the great Scottish theologian of the cross, is a first class piece of work. As well as showing a mastery of Denney's published works, Gordon has made excellent use of a mass of hitherto untapped manuscript material. 'The study is not a comprehensive systematic presentation of Denney's theology, but a biography of the mind which produced it.' It succeeds admirable in its intention.”

Nationhood, Providence, and Witness

Theology

“Nationalism and the concept of nationhood is something Christian theologians have shied away from. The tragedy of the Holocaust, the European experience during the twentieth century, and the fractious state of the Middle East during the twenty-first have given us all pause for thought. On the basis of a fresh understanding of Israel, Moseley tackles negative attitudes toward the integrity of stateless nations and suggests creative ways in which current missiology and theological ethics can respond positively.”

Revival, Renewal, and the Holy Spirit

History & Biography

“For those who were present at the University of Wales, Bangor, for the centenary conference celebrating the 1904 revival the occasion was certainly memorable. We learned that that great outpouring of the Spirit was more about the sovereignty of God than the personality of his servants and had as much to do with the expansion of the church world-wide as with the religious history of the people of Wales. This collection of papers provides a feel for the richness of that conference and takes forward our understanding of the whole phenomenon of revivalism. It blends first-class scholarship with warm piety and in reminding us of the excitement of 1904 provides food for reflection on the present and a mood of expectation for the future. In all, this is an excellent volume.”

The Great Divide and the Salvation Paradox

Theology

“This subtle, learned, and intriguing analysis not only invites us to ponder anew some of the ultimate mysteries of the Christian revelation, but to see how the concept of paradox can encompass a wide range of apparently contradictory scriptural truths in order to underscore God’s gracious salvation in Christ. Those who follow David Griffith’s reasoning in this highly accomplished study will be enlightened and enrichened.”

Theology and Issues of Life and Death

Theology

“The profound meditations on life's ultimate question contained in the chapters of this book are a joy to read. Although challenging, both intellectually and spiritually, they are the result of a lifetime's thought and are full of ripe wisdom. . . . The context of these studies is the twentieth century, but the themes explored retain their relevance for the challenges of the twenty-first.”

To Follow the Lambe Wheresoever He Goeth

History & Biography

“On the basis of his mastery of a wide range of original sources, [Ian Birch] has shown how the idea of Lordship of Christ functioned in the context of both individual faith and the corporate life of the community. This is a fine contribution to Puritan and Baptist studies.”
