Divine Suffering

Theology

“Ours is a broken, bloodied world. And our only hope for help and healing is the broken, bloodied God. Divine Suffering is a collection of essays with striking evenness and thematic continuity, and it sings of a reality that could hardly be more uplifting and glorious. This book brims with biblical, theological, and pastoral wisdom—a grand gift to the church’s life and mission, especially for times such as these.”

Earth Filled with Heaven

Preaching & Worship

“An increasingly frenetic and fragile world has many modern Christians desiring the old paths, the good way of our forebears in the faith, where the ancient practices of the church give rest to our souls as we journey to a kingdom that cannot be shaken. If that is your desire, then Earth Filled with Heaven is a book for you. Aaron Damiani writes with the gentleness of a pastor, the maturity of a seasoned sojourner, and the winsome warmth that comes from life-transforming intimacy with Jesus Christ along the way—from truly tasting and seeing that the Lord is good. If you are new to the old paths, Damiani will ensure that your first steps are steady and straight. And if you are further down the road, you will find him a most welcome and valued companion.”

Flesh and Blood

Theology

“In Flesh and Blood, Cameron skillfully sets the contemporary voices of T. F. Torrance and Oliver Crisp in conversation about the ancient insight of Gregory of Nazianzus--namely, that what our Lord has not assumed he has not healed. With concision and clarity, Cameron demonstrates that the ontology of the incarnation grounds the reality of redemption, arguing that in the mystery of the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ sinlessly assumed our fallen humanity.”

One with Christ

Christian Living

“The tendency in much contemporary evangelical thought is to view salvation as if it were the reception of an abstract and objectified commodity given on account of Christ yet apart from him, as if Christ were the agent and condition of our salvation, but not that salvation itself. Marcus Johnson demonstrates that this is neither the witness of the apostles nor the confession of the Protestant Reformers, who proclaimed salvation to be a life-giving, life-transforming participation in our incarnate substitute. Immensely important and timely, this volume provides a richly textured theology of salvation couched in the only context that allows soteriology to be truly intelligible, pastoral, and doxological—the context constituted by the church and her sacraments.”

The Water and the Blood

Christian Living

“Saturated in Scripture and the best of the Christian tradition, this book has a word for us that is too good and beautiful to ignore. Far from baptism and the Lord’s Supper being empty signs of an absent Christ, they are safe harbor, true sustenance, and, yes, identity markers. For at font and table, in the life-giving presence of our Lord, we learn whose we are and thus who we are. Read this book! It is full of wisdom and gospel truth—a balm and bulwark against the modern malaise surrounding authentic personhood.”
