A Shorter Guide to the Holy Spirit

Theology

“Eminent scholar Anthony Thiselton applies his considerable expertise to the mysterious — and often mystifying — topic of the Holy Spirit. . . . Once again, Thiselton proves himself an able guide through dense thickets and tough terrain.”

Extreme Walking

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In a delightful series of walks through key New Testament themes—like heaven or Messiah or Satan—Tom de Bruin proves to be a highly informed and affable pathfinder. This book is a treasure because it offers, in a wonderful and whimsical way, insight into the New Testament by leading us back to the Jewish air the earliest Christians breathed. That air is never stuffy; it’s fresh and funny and full of fascinating information—making this book perfect for any curious reader, Christian or not, who wants to know the truth about how Christianity came to be.”

Imitation in Early Christianity

Theology

“How should Christians imitate Christ? Through poverty? Love of neighbor? Martyrdom? This matter of mimesis—the imitation of Christ—is tough to navigate, which is what makes this book so significant! With the deft hand of a veteran scholar, Cornelis Bennema tackles this topic by chaperoning us judiciously through ancient texts, from Plato to Paul to the Shepherd of Hermas. If you wonder how to imitate Christ in our twenty-first century world, you’d do well to devote yourself to this exemplary book.”

The Holy Spirit and Ethics in Paul

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Volker Rabens combines exemplary exegetical work and a decisive command of recent scholarship to enrich and invigorate our grasp of Pauline pneumatology. Rabens puts the exclamation point where it belongs—not on subsidiary questions but on Paul’s quest for a relationship with God that lies at the heart of the life of virtue. Outstanding scholarship, the product of a keen mind, assiduous research, and a passion for getting pneumatology right.”
