Christian Spiritual Formation

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“In this book students of Christian spirituality will find a helpful resource jam-packed with scholarly insights and practical help. Diane Chandler introduces students to a wide range of Christian thought and contemporary scholarship. She constructs a holistic approach to Christian spiritual formation on the cornerstones of Christian discipleship, such as the imitation of God and Christ, the love of God, imago Dei and stewardship. Perhaps the book's greatest strength is its stubborn refusal to segregate holiness and spirituality from 'real world' arenas such as finances, food, family and friendship.”

Practicing the King's Economy

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Jesus tells us that there is a connection between our hearts and our treasure. Even those of us who believe him need a great deal of help understanding and stewarding what God has provided. Deeply rooted in God’s Word and shaped by rich experience in God’s world, Practicing the King’s Economy is a marriage of gracious words and prophetic insight.”

The Crucified King

Theology

“I feel like I’ve witnessed a beautiful wedding where the atmosphere is just right, the visuals are perfect, and the bride and groom are perfect for one another. Pastors and theologians often manage to give the impression that the kingdom of God and the cross of the Messiah are divorced or separated. Treat’s study of kingdom and cross unveils the exciting marriage between two of Scripture’s central concepts. With good writing and clear thinking of the “big picture” variety, Treat produces a dessert-quality dissertation that leaves readers enriched and satisfied. On the evidence of this work, the author will have an important voice in the theological conversations of the next generation of Christian scholars.”
