A Short Systematic Theology

Theology

“A splendid introduction to the heart of the Christian faith—namely, the person and work of Jesus Christ. Paul Zahl is one of the most exciting theologians in the United States today. He has that rare ability to combine serious theology with the world of art and modern life. I commend this important book.”

Church and State

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

Foreword

“"This is a fascinating and powerfully argued book. Of its relevance I have no doubt. This analysis is unsettling reading for all bishops and demands an urgent appraisal by the Church of England of the role of bishops in the House of Lords.”

Did the Anglicans and Roman Catholics Agree on the Eucharist?

Theology

“In 1997 I enjoyed a coffee with Cardinal Ratzinger, later to become Pope Benedict XVI. I asked him point-blank: ‘Why was the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith so negative towards The Final Report?’ In strong Germanic English he replied: ‘Because it did not comply with Catholic doctrine’. In this splendid book Colin Buchanan traces the hopes of successive Catholic and Anglican theologians as they sought to unite our two Communions. Perhaps this dream will be realized one day but Dr. Buchanan shows why this way of proceeding was doomed to fail.”

New Bible Commentary

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“IVP is to be congratulated on producing this new edition of the New Bible Commentary. I warmly commend it to all those wanting to understand the Bible in greater depth.”

The Collects of Thomas Cranmer

Preaching & Worship

“Thomas Cranmer was a master of the English language, and the Prayer Book is an essential element of the rich legacy of faith, devotion, and liturgy that belong to our heritage. . . This edition of the Collects will bring the prayers to life in a new way for many. In particular, I am struck by the meditations based on each of the Collects. . . I thank Barbee and Zahl for this gift and commend the book warmly.”

The Magnificent Obsession

Christian Living

“Anne Graham Lotz shows the relevance of Abraham for today.”

The Noble Renaissance

Christian Living

“Nobility, so long associated with aristocracy, goes to the heart of what it is to be a graceful and loving Christian. In this superb book Carrie Lloyd lifts the veil from this forgotten word and we find we are looking at Jesus.”
