Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“"I pray that this book would be a means the Lord uses to feed his people well and to inoculate them against the poisons of domination and exploitation, however tasty those poisons may present themselves to be. May we be a people committed to the actual Christ rather than the many antichrists!”
Arts & Literature
“God Speaks Through Wombs is a fresh take on the first eight chapters of the Gospel of Luke and a poetic invitation into the world of the Scriptures. What we read here is not translation, but rather more. We are transported into the ministry of Jesus and beckoned to walk alongside him with the oppressed he came to save. Jackson's poetry brings to light the fact that Christ's ministry is, in many ways, an affirmation of human dignity in general and of Black dignity specifically. This Savior is very much for you, not against you.”
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“The Christian family needs to be further radicalized; that is, returned to its life-giving roots and stripped of parasitic accretions. Emily Hunter McGowin does that work, reminding the Christian of what family really is, and in doing so, offering a great gift to the people of God. By linking the Christian family tightly to the church, the church to the kingdom of God, and the kingdom to its King Jesus, McGowin narrates a beautiful golden chain that provides the Christian with both vision and practice that leads to Christlikeness. I can think of no better gift to the Christian family than a voice that relentlessly points to the kingdom. Emily McGowin has offered such a voice!”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Upon reading this book, my first thought was, My elders, deacons, and congregation must read this! Any Christian who does not understand that the Scriptures call them to deep relationships of economic solidarity will understand by the end of their reading of Michael Rhodes's excellent text. Bringing together Scriptural texts not often looked to for ethical guidance, such as Job, the Psalms, and Deuteronomy, Rhodes reminds us that the people of God are a people, and the way of comprehensive salvation requires a deeper understanding of justice and community than is currently broadly on offer.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Greed is indeed the enemy that we face. David Swanson powerfully draws our human story together with the rest of creation and reminds us that the war against the powers and principalities behind racism, exploitation, and ecological destruction will not be won by individuals but by communities. Join the resistance!”
The Christian Past That Wasn't
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“I hope this work can help put to death the lie of the Christian nation and can instead refocus the people of God on being the people of God.”
Turning Points in American Church History
World Religions
“Colonialism, race, religious freedom. Coffman reminds us how much of American history is bound up with the history of Christianity. After reading this accessible work, Christian readers in America will better understand their own story, and those outside the faith and outside the nation may get a better idea of what all the fuss is about when it comes to American Christianity.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“A book that pairs a trenchant critique of whiteness guided by Willie Jennings with a robust Reformed orthodoxy guided by Herman Bavinck is precisely the book that I've been looking for. Meador's work is a text of truth, goodness, and beauty revealing to us the world in which we live and the way we ought to move about in it.”
