Christian Living
“This book is about a rare kind of love and the suffering that reveals it. Penned by three friends—Lutheran pastors who have each passed through cancer’s relentlessness, its indignities and aches—this book becomes an indispensable companion for patients, their families, and the medical community. With luminous wisdom and wry humor, the authors reflect on faithfulness—divine and human—and reveal how, even in suffering, God meets us with unanticipated grace.”

The Homebrewed Christianity Guide to the Old Testament
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Understand the Old Testament through the eyes of a scholar who is knowledgeable and hilarious and probably a little bit evil. Rolf Jacobson has earned the right to be terribly smart and inappropriately funny.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This is a wise, penetrating, and compassionate look at Christian blessing through the lens of a careful reading of the Priestly Blessing in Numbers 6:24–26. Stephen Chapman shows how this Old Testament passage has been understood over time and how a better understanding of blessing might not only restore the integrity of American churches in an increasingly partisan era of divisiveness but also renew a robust sense of the clerical vocation. This is a valuable contribution to the Touchstone Texts series and well worth reading.”
History & Biography
Foreword
“A fascinating study in why exceptional women remain exceptions. . . . The rise of Kathryn Kuhlman is the story of one woman’s remarkable climb onto a national stage and the many nimble adaptations—theological, institutional, technological, and personal—she made to achieve it. But her fall into obscurity is the story of the American church, and why women’s spiritual authority remains so ephemeral.”
Turning Points in the History of American Evangelicalism
History & Biography
“This book sparkles with insight. Eminently readable and carefully curated, it is a significant contribution to the study of American evangelicalism.”
