Flood and Fury

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“The Bible contains violence. This book questions various interpretations of biblical violence and its possible influence on Christian doctrine and practice. Warfare, racism, and gender discrimination have been justified using the Bible, but the Bible has also sparked significant movements for individual and collective freedom, inclusiveness, and peace. At the heart of Dr. Lynch's work is an essential question regarding the biblical conception of God and how we can think about God's love, justice, and peace in the midst of it all. The insightful proposals in this book will be helpful for both teachers and students in search of understanding.”

Theology

“How should Christians respond to living in a society where most economic activity occurs through markets? D. Glenn Butner explores this question with theological, philosophical, and empirical analysis, avoiding both blind support and easy criticism of capitalism. He examines how markets shape us and how intentional design might transform them. Butner offers a theological framework that centers on God's redemptive work, seeing markets as a space where divine and human agency intersect. This work is a welcome exercise in faith seeking economic understanding.”
