Healing Fractures in Contemporary Theology
Theology
“At a moment when fractures in contemporary theology reveal themselves as deep fractures in the unity of the church, this book comes as welcome medicine. In manifold ways, the authors of these essays remind us that the breaches between being and history, faith and life, theology and philosophy, and dogmatic and pastoral theology cannot be repaired by sociological and pragmatic means, but only by rediscovering the primacy of the Logos in whom all things are made.”
Theology
“Bold, creative, and yet showing a deep mastery of his craft, Wells charts a fresh course for Christian theological ethics that is at once artful, contemporary, and faithful both to the Bible and to the best of Christian ethical reflection. This is a very important book.”
Philosophy
“Paul Tyson's Returning to Reality is an excellent introduction to the fundamental existential and intellectual crisis facing Christianity and the West: whether meaning and intelligibility are intrinsic to reality and thus whether truth is anything but pragmatic success. Simultaneously beautiful, whimsical, and profound, Returning to Reality provides an important witness to the unity of life in Christ and the life of the mind and compelling evidence that only Christian faith in its fullness can now save reason.”
The Problem of Self-Love in St. Augustine
Theology
“Duesenberg Professor in Christian Ethics Valparaiso University, and author of The Way That Leads There: Augustinian Reflections on the Christian Life (2006) Few people in the last thirty years have done more than Oliver O'Donovan to make Augustine a living, breathing source for Christian moral reflection. With the increasing recognition that deep confusion about love lies at the heart of modernity's pathos and with renewed attention being paid to the nature of love in all its personal, social, and ontological dimensions, the recovery of Augustine's profound insights has become an urgent matter. The re-issue of this seminal work is thus both timely and important.”
The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self
Theology
“Carl Trueman has written an excellent book: ambitious in its scope yet circumspect in its claims and temperate, even gentlemanly, in its tone. The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self will prove indispensable in moving beyond the superficiality of moralistic and liberationist interpretations to a deeper understanding and should be required reading for all who truly wish to understand the times we live in or are concerned about the human future. I very much hope it receives the wide readership it deserves.”
