Sharing Wisdom

World Religions

“How can religions engage with each other in a way that not only respects each other’s integrity but also draws on their depths and brings them into fruitful conversation? Sharing Wisdom is a remarkable response to that question. The distinguished authors together tackle a series of difficult questions posed to their traditions, and they succeed in opening up a wisdom of multiple depths that resonate with each other. Goshen-Gottstein has drawn the strands together with profound sensitivity and perceptiveness.”

Systematic Theology, Volume 2

Theology

“Deeply and often surprisingly biblical, perceptively alert to both theological tradition and the contemporary world, marinated in prayer and praise, conceptually exquisite, imaginatively soaring, and daringly original: this is a gripping, wise, and prophetic theology for our century. No other writing on God has moved and challenged me so profoundly since reading Bonaventure and Barth. And the vibrant, fiery style matches its glorious subject, the living God.”

The Political Dimension of Reconciliation

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Ralf Wüstenberg combines perceptive Christian theology with realistic politics grounded in the South African and German experiences, exploring some of the toughest issues of our time. The result is a rich treatment of guilt and reconciliation in the public sphere with many implications for transformative practice in diverse situations.”

The Reconstruction of Resurrection Belief

Theology

“Carnley has succeeded in making deep sense of core Christian truth, authoritatively combining up to date scholarship, rigorous philosophy, and a rich engagement with both Christianity and modernity. He shows how testimony both to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and to the Holy Spirit connects with experience of Jesus now. He not only faces the big questions that are important for both believers and searchers, he also offers convincing judgements and a wisdom that has matured over many years. A very remarkable and valuable achievement!”

The Text in Play

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Higton and Muers offer imaginative, scholarly, wise, and often exhilarating explorations of Scripture, and they have succeeded brilliantly in sharing, through their delightful, accessible style, a profound understanding of the Bible's practical implications for the twenty-first century. . . . There is an abundance of new insights and daring ideas, with extensive learning lightly worn, and through it all the attractive, serious play of fine minds and hearts in intensive engagement with deep questions.”

Theology and Human Flourishing

Theology

“How do you respond to one of the liveliest, most daring, and most practically engaged of contemporary British theologians? Inspired by Tim Gorringe's work, the distinguished international group of senior and younger contributors to this volume rise superbly to the challenge. They cover an impressive range of major topics and show that theology can be more powerful when, as here, it is taken in distilled form. Time and again these concentrated essays grip the reader not only intellectually and imaginatively but also through challenges to act ethically and politically.”

Way of Love

Christian Living

“Profoundly, practically, and accessibly, Wirzba has done what the title says—he has recovered the heart of Christianity as love. It is an astonishing, moving achievement, with the potential to inspire individuals, groups, and whole communities. This is a book to be read and re-read, savored as the distillation of a lifetime’s wisdom by one of the leading Christian thinkers today.”
