Faith Thinking, Second Edition

Theology

“Twenty-five years ago, Trevor Hart wrote a remarkably sophisticated account of how we know and witness to the truth. When it comes to God, yes, but also just about anything else, we encounter reality in the mode of faith seeking understanding. In this greatly enlarged second edition, born amidst polarization and pandemic, Hart’s theological epistemology emerges into a profound call to discipleship, a call to follow and love the truth by which we have been grasped even more than we love our descriptions of it.”

Jacob Arminius

Theology

“Whether worn as a badge of honor or hurled in derision, the term 'Arminian' says both too little and too much. In this short book, Brian introduces us to 'the man behind the adjective,' telling us just enough about his background and beliefs to spark a conversation about Arminius's place in the history of theology and the way theology might benefit from listening to him. What would a Reformed Wesleyan look like? Maybe like this.”

Original Sin and the Fall

Theology

“I found this discussion fascinating as the writers probed and illuminated the mysteries of original sin and the fall from different angles. I came away with a sense that the interlocutors were talking to one another, not just saying their own piece and walking away. This is exactly how a multiview volume should work, modeling charitable yet critical discussion and moving the reader to offer a personal response.”

Simon, Who Is Called Peter

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

Foreword

“Moving between contemporaneous episodes in prison and recollections of Peter's place in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and the first days of the church, Mulligan gives meaningful shape to Peter's life and offers us a novel take on both Peter and Jesus, yet ever faithful and attentive to the biblical witness. This sounds like Peter and would be an excellent companion to students of the New Testament, both lay and academic.”

Suffering and the Search for Meaning

Theology

“Those who suffer know two things: that suffering calls for silence and that, eventually, it seeks to be understood. Richard Rice respects this double knowledge, honors the limits of what we can say in a crisis and humbly surveys a range of responses to suffering to help his readers speak faithfully in and of pain—their own, and others'.”

Tempted for Us

Theology

“John McKinley speaks sense into an emotionally charged, chaotic discussion. Ever even-handed, his taxonomy and constructive proposals iron out much of the confusion over Christ's sinlessness and temptations. Few books combine such pastoral pathos and conceptual clarity.”
