Theology
“Pentecostal and Orthodox Christians share the concern that entry into the Christian life should bring about a spiritual transformation of the whole person. In this groundbreaking study, Dr. Rybarczyk for the first time brings into dialogue some of the philosophical, theological, and spiritual conclusions of these seemingly disparate traditions to demonstrate their essential sameness. What this insightful work illustrates for us is how to understand the core of what each tradition has to say on the theme of spiritual-transformation through the use of a common language. In the end, he also provides a series of challenges to both traditions that could bring them into a unique relationship of discovery. I strongly recommend this volume as a fine contribution to the growing field of Pentecostal, ecumenical theology." Cecil M. Robeck Jr., Professor of Church History and Ecumenics, Director of the David J. duPlessis Center for Christian Spirituality, Fuller Theological Seminary, California "Rybarczyk's exploration of the similar understandings of Christ and parallel experiences of the Holy Spirit in both traditions is sensitive, full of insight, and convincing; the book makes a timely and important contribution to ecumenical theology.”
Ideas at the Intersection of Mathematics, Philosophy, and Theology
Philosophy
“The great scientists of the scientific revolution--Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, and Leibniz--thought deeply about the relationship between the mathematical structure of the physical world and its Creator. Since the Enlightenment, however, this relationship has been widely neglected. In this collection of essays, Bovell draws on many sources in contemporary philosophy, theology, and mathematics to provide a fresh addition to the literature on this important topic.”
Apologetics
“Redeeming Mathematics is a valuable addition the growing literature on the relationship between mathematics and Christian belief. Poythress’s treatment of three distinct dimensions of mathematics—as transcendent abstract truths, as part of the physical world, and as comprehensible to human beings—is a unique and helpful addition to the conversation on this relationship. The book is accessible to non-specialists, but even those who are well-versed in these matters will find much to interest and challenge them.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Statistics and Christian faith share a deep commitment to seeking the truth, but they approach that undertaking in very different ways. Jason Wilson does a fine job of exploring the ways they differ but also the many ways in which their shared common commitment to truth leads to situations in which both have a vital concern. And he does it in a way that's accessible to a wide variety of readers.”
Evangelism & Missions
“At the very outset, one can see that Jensen has taken on an ambitious project. It not only covers a wide range of thinkers that span more than two millennia, but it addresses a complex array of ideas. And yet, what could be more pertinent and to the point in a new age, with all the challenges the age portends, than an analysis that connects time and space to devotion to God and mission? Jensen's research is consistently rigorous and his powers of comparison and analysis superior. I highly recommend this provocative and important study.”
