“This new edition of Edwards’s classic philosophical argument will help readers understand this important text and its implications for past and contemporary debates.”
Give Us This Day Devotionals, Volume 8
Bible Studies & Devotionals
“Charles Erlandson is one of our best priests and theologians. This is an incomparable companion to prayerful Bible study that ought to be the joy of every Christian.”
God's Israel and the Israel of God
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Is supersessionism merely a bully club to hammer those who disagree with orthodox theology? Or is it a theology that misconstrues Paul and has led to the erasure of Jews from the church and the world? Unlike some multi-author volumes discussing important issues, here there is real debate among scholars who differ in substantial ways. Recommended for all who want to know if Jesus and Paul thought God ended his covenant with Jewish Israel and transferred it to the gentile Church.”
Christian Living
“No theologian can answer these questions without careful attention to Barth, Rosenzweig, Kinzer and ― now ― Jennifer M. Rosner.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Brent Sandy's work on the orality of the gospel for the first two centuries has tremendous implications for the relation between church and Bible, and even the relationship between salvation and justification. I recommend this book for all those interested in these profound subjects.”
Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen
Theology
“Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen is a careful but exciting reading of the NT through the lens of Luke-Acts . . . Kinzer shows that it is the principal link between the gospels and the letters of the NT, and that it unveils the Jewish-Gentile admixture of the early church in ways that answer fundamental questions about Christology, eschatology, ecclesiology, ethics, and missiology. Readers of this book will discover ways of seeing Jesus and the early church that will set all of Christian theology in a new light.”
Jerusalén crucificada, Jerusalén resucitada
Theology
“«Jerusalén crucificada, Jerusalén resucitada es una cuidadosa pero apasionante lectura del Nuevo Testamento a través de la lente de Lucas-Hechos [...] Kinzer muestra que [Hechos] es el vínculo principal entre los evangelios y las cartas del NT y que evidencia la mezcla de judíos y gentiles en la iglesia primitiva dando respuesta a cuestiones fundamentales sobre cristología, escatología, eclesiología, ética y misionología. Los lectores de este libro descubrirán formas de ver a Jesús y a la iglesia primitiva que situarán a toda la teología cristiana bajo una nueva luz».”
World Religions
“Bob Robinson is to be commended for insisting that a christocentric and missional approach to interreligious dialogue is neither imperialistic nor conversation-stopping, but in fact the best way to show respect for, and have fruitful dialogue with, our non-Christian friends and colleagues. His focus on Jesus' example in his relations with Gentiles is fresh and helpful.”
Jonathan Edwards and Deification
Theology
“Does God save us by working outside of us and helping us accept that external work? Or does he save by drawing us into his very being so that we participate in his inner life? James Salladin argues that Jonathan Edwards taught a version of the latter and so is one of the great theologians teaching what the Eastern Orthodox call theosis. All Christians and scholars interested in divinization and its relation to the Reformed tradition will want to read this clear and engaging study.”
Jonathan Edwards and the Ministry of the Word
History & Biography
“Doug Sweeney gives us a nourishing and tasty introduction to the real Edwards, and focuses in this brief but substantial volume on Edwards' ministry of the Word. He provides a fascinating entrée to the life and career of Edwards, and then zeroes in on Edwards' multifaceted understanding of Scripture. Sweeney gives us enough detail to stimulate new insights into Edwards, Scripture and its Author. But his writing is not so technical that the general reader would not be abundantly rewarded by perusing this slim but informative and illuminating volume.”
Keeping the Soul in Christian Higher Education
History & Biography
“In many ways, the Roanoke story is the story of church-related colleges writ large. All who want to strengthen Christian colleges, and who wonder about their fates, will learn much from this engaging history.”
Theology
“Ever since the Holocaust Christian theologians have reexamined previous Christian thinking about Israel. Most have rejected one aspect of supersessionism, that which posited an end to God’s covenant with the Jewish people . . . EJ Westerman provides us with a retelling of the biblical story in which Israel and her Messiah are at the center. This retelling sheds much new light on not only the Bible but the meaning of Israel and the nations. This is an important and helpful book for Christian theology, the Church, and Israel today.”
Children & Youth
“What a delight to see a book on Edwards’s conception of the Christian life. And how beautiful it is that it depicts the Christian life as ordered by and to the beauty of God. This book will help strengthen the fertilization of today’s churches by Edwards’s vision of God’s triune beauty.”
Theology
“Recent years have seen an explosion of interest in two thinkers and one doctrine: Jonathan Edwards, N. T. Wright, and justification. Jonathan Huggins's timely analysis seeks to connect these three to the Reformed tradition and its chief progenitor, John Calvin. All students and scholars interested in justification in the Reformed tradition will profit from this work.”
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“I have not been single for many years. But I know many single Christians, and heartily recommend this book to them. It will change their life by changing their attitude. It will enable them to see their singlehood not as something to be lamented but as a gift for deeper joy—or perhaps even their first joy. For, as Hendrix writes, there is a special closeness to God and joy in that closeness that the married can never have. Hendrix writes beautifully and is wonderfully informed by great theology. Give this book to every single friend you know!”
Theology
“Today Christians are confused by growing polarization, ideological extremism, social divisions, the specter of another world war, and growing antisemitism. Where is history going? Why would God be allowing these rising evils? What does the conflict in Israel have to do with all this? In this day when Christians need a short but informed guide, this little book is a handy introduction. I recommend it to both Christians and Jews.”
Philosophy
“This book will be of interest to all Christians who recognize the dangers that mass media pose to the church.”
Re-appropriating “Marvelous Fables”
Theology
“Too often today it is said that the church has only recently learned of religious pluralism and that we need to develop new strategies for understanding Jesus Christ amidst a world of competing religions. Noel Pretila reminds us that the early Greek theologians did much of this work long ago, in a world that was no less pluralistic than ours. Pretila analyzes Justin Martyr's sophisticated and subtle treatment of pagan myth in ways that can help us redevelop Christian theology of religions today.”
Preaching & Worship
“God knows this Western world needs revival. . . . We need a deep and broad awakening that reorients in fundamental ways both the lives of individuals and the direction of a society. There is no better Christian thinker on how to prepare for and preach toward such a revival than Jonathan Edwards. More than anyone else in the history of the church, Edwards was a theologian of revival. If we want to understand revival and how to seek it, we must turn to Edwards. This book by Dr. Klassen should help every reader do those things.”
