Theology
“McSwain argues persuasively that the simul . . . is a powerful key to Barth’s theology as a whole. Breaking new ground, yet firmly committed to all the key truths championed by Barth, McSwain’s theological insightfulness is evident on every page. An impressively comprehensive knowledge of Barth’s Dogmatics is also on display, along with a truly Barthian passion for the truth and the importance of the gospel . . . McSwain’s thesis is both fascinating and challenging. It will richly reward careful engagement.”
The Practice of the Body of Christ
Theology
“Miller understands well the apocalyptic reading of Paul, but addresses here certain crucial questions that are, as yet, insufficiently developed by this interpretative trajectory. He analyzes human agency in relation to the all-important divine act in Christ, and connects this intersection in a non-individualistic way with an account of the church and its practices. . . . A highly significant and deeply intelligent set of proposals for the interpretation of Paul results.”
The Unconditional Freeness of the Gospel
Theology
“Richard Leimbach has done the ongoing theological conversation about the triune God, and the gospel many of us proclaim concerning them, a great service by reintroducing the thought of Thomas Erskine into the conversation. A deeply insightful Christian thinker rooted in Scottish Calvinism, yet profoundly aware of its limitations, Erskine pushed through, alongside his great friend John McLeod Campbell, to a much stronger and more central emphasis on a God who loves us. This is a much-needed tonic to those who thirst for words of real grace.”
Christian Living
“This is the story of a remarkable young Christian's journey from youthful poverty and conservatism, through stages alternating between the charming and the deeply painful, to a sensitive and engaged maturity. It is recounted in a compelling, sparse prose, studded with delightful anecdotes, and braced with sheer honesty. Driving the narrative throughout is the underlying movement of a profoundly reflective and insightful person struggling forward to seek out the agenda of an unexpected God. Entertaining, moving, and challenging by turns: this book is all these important things, and more.”
