Christology as Critique

Theology

“What is the relationship between the world and the human? Against the irrationality of modernism this study proffers a surprising answer: the indispensability of Christology. Drawing on a line of counter-cultural thinkers, Alfsvag draws out the implications for our time in stimulating fashion. This is a study of gravitas, with far-reaching significance.”

Divine Presence

Theology

“Divine Presence moves beyond the modernist model of knowledge to show how theology as an academic discipline goes about describing the relationship between God and the world. This work embraces the full rigors of the cognitive challenges of our time while exploring and communicating the pathways of an active life of faith. This is an excellent discussion of content and method in Christian theology that will benefit classroom and study alike.”

Fleeing Plague

History & Biography

“Wisdom from the past is the tonic that this little book offers to our Covid-weary society. What Luther's treatise from the sixteenth century lacks in scientific knowledge, it more than makes up for in pragmatic advice for ordering a disordered situation. Kudos to Anna Marie Johnson for bringing this gem to light at this time.”

God’s Love Story

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this book, Spoelstra mines both Old and New Testaments to show how the searching and saving love of God woos and wins his chosen bride. He convincingly shows how the narrative of Scripture is encapsulated in the stages of betrothal, marriage, Israel’s unfaithfulness, divorce, and (re) marriage. I highly recommend this work that is full of biblical knowledge and wisdom.”

Martin Luther as He Lived and Breathed

History & Biography

“The concept of this book is brilliant. Gathering together comments of supporters and opponents from Luther's lifetime, Robert Kolb masterfully weaves a picture of the Reformer that invites further study. The ease and accuracy of Kolb's connective narrative makes this work a joy to read.”
