“Cerone and Fisher are to be commended! This volume will aid learners of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin to increase facility in the languages over a calendar year, all the while discovering more deeply the biblical story from creation to renewed creation under the reign of God. Aids in vocabulary and morphology are clearly defined and helpful for the reader. I continue to benefit from this resource. Warmly recommended!”
Theology
“Mullins offers readers of the Bible what is urgently needed in our day: an aesthetics of reading. Mullins's vision for biblical reading (not biblical interpretation!) moves beyond hermeneutical techniques, directing us toward being captured and captivated by the Word of God. As a biblical scholar, I find myself drawn to this grand vision. Erudite, funny, and penetrating, Mullins wears his considerable scholarship lightly, inviting others to delight in the banquet that is reading the Bible. I want a place at that table.”
Theology
“It is exciting to see fresh work in the field of systematic theology that stimulates deeper reflection on method and approach. Dr. Hollingsworth’s dialectic between theology and the semiotics of Umberto Eco provides a fruitful and insightful way forward. Take and read!”
Hearing the Message of Habakkuk
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Chris has done it once more! One of our generation’s most careful and thoughtful biblical scholars and church leaders applies theological insight, biblical understanding, and pastoral concern to the book of Habakkuk, opening it up for our day. His attentiveness offers a fresh word from an indispensable prophetic book. As I preach and teach Habakkuk, I will return to this gift again and again.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In the Eyes of God stands out as an attentive piece of theological investigation. Here we find a fresh response to the challenge of divine metaphors in the Bible. . . . This insightful monograph carries the discussion on divine metaphors forward, with close attention to specific examples from the biblical text. This will remain a major work in the field and one I will go to again and again.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Long admired as a world-class scholar on Deuteronomy and the Prophets, McConville leverages considerable insight and theological sensitivity in this magisterial commentary on Isaiah. With judicious comments throughout and fresh theological interpretation, this is a must-have resource that will inform scholar, student, and minister. Highly recommended!”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Campbell's work is in many ways groundbreaking, filling a gap in research and bringing the riches of lament research on the Old Testament to bear on the narrative presentation of Jesus in the gospels. His argument is careful and, to my mind, persuasive as he blends historical, literary, and theological aspects of gospel research. I shall refer to it again and again.”
Perspectives on Pastoral Ministry
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Faithful pastoral ministry stands as one of the most urgent needs in Christian community today. Those who serve in this capacity in the life of faith urgently need this resource, because it will ground them in biblical, theological, and practical necessities for doing pastoral ministry in a divided world and a troubled church. The editors and contributors are to be lauded for this volume. Highly recommended!”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Suffering is part of life, and there are times when pain faces us with such gruesome fierceness we are rocked to the core. . . . Spiritual Complaint is a salve for those who are wounded in a broken world. It teaches us how to wrestle with God faithfully, in prayer and tears and worship. Far from being simplistic in its instruction, however, this provides nuance and depth on how to negotiate pain on the foundation of biblical exemplars. I highly recommend this much-needed resource.”
Theology
“Brad Vaughn offers a book that needed to be written. It is challenging, insightful, intriguing, and stretching. Not all will agree with this book (W. tells us as much!), but no one should ignore it. Here we discover the multifaceted diamond that is Christ's atonement.”
Theology
“Learned, erudite, and comprehensive, this monumental dogmatic exploration follows the contours of the Christian creeds to formulate a neo-Kuyperian dogmatic account of creation. This work has the capacity to be a theological classic. Through close engagement with ancient and modern Christian thought, Ashford and Bartholomew retrieve the past, assess the present, and offer a fresh, constructive, and thoroughly biblical presentation of God and the totality of the created order. Some may disagree with their presentation of the doctrine, but no one will be able to ignore it. I pray this work establishes a renaissance of the doctrine of creation for our day.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Andrew Abernethy provides a welcome handbook on the prophetic books of the Old Testament. His attention to historical contexts, canonical and rhetorical structure, and theological instruction of each book masterfully introduces readers to the riches of the prophets. Beautifully presented, with helpful charts and engagement from the global church, this is a resource not to be missed. I am thrilled to recommend this work.”
