History & Biography
“This is the searingly honest story of one romanced by God against all expectations. Bennett’s example of giving his whole self, including his sexual self, to the Christ who died for him is an act of Christian witness for our time.”
Rev.
Christian Living
“There is no more thorny issue for the contemporary Christian disciple than that of sexual sin and temptation. With pastoral insight and theological acuity, John Fonville shows us that it is the gospel itself that is the sweetest remedy for our hurts—the power of God to save us and to sanctify us. The tender counsel of this book will be a mercy both to Christians and those who seek to shepherd them.”
Imitation in Early Christianity
Theology
“Surprisingly, the concept of imitation in early Christianity has been under-examined in recent scholarship even though it has been a staple of Christian piety across the ecclesial traditions. In this fine study, Bennema more than makes up for this lack. Via a rigorous and extensive examination of the ancient literature, Bennema shows that imitation is a dynamic and creative concept central to the ethical vision of the first generations of Christians. Imitation in Early Christianity is a perceptive and engaging study of a neglected concept that contemporary disciples need to revisit.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“In an age when the cross is so easily draped in the colors of the nation-state, Graham Hill offers a timely and prophetic call for the church to recover its primary allegiance to the kingdom of God. Kingdom or Empire? exposes the subtle ways Christian faith can be co-opted by projects of power, fear, and exclusion, and invites us back to the cruciform way of Jesus, marked by humility, justice, reconciliation, and love of enemy. Drawing wisely on Scripture, history, and contemporary global movements, Hill challenges believers to resist political idolatries without retreating from public life. This is a courageous, clear-eyed, and deeply pastoral book that equips Christians to live faithfully as kingdom citizens in a contested political age.”
Leviticus on the Butcher’s Block
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This is a book to savor. Indeed, it may make you hungry for a rib-eye! But Bray’s achievement is to make Leviticus, possibly the most baffling book in the Old Testament, appetizing. Leviticus on the Butcher’s Block is that rare beast: well-researched, insightful, and a delight to read.”
History & Biography
“Dr. Cameron provides a fascinating and detailed account of what she calls the 'phenomenon' of the Anglican Diocese of Sydney. Her judgments are both critical and sympathetic: the Sydney Diocese has, as readers will see, had a remarkable impact on Australian life over two centuries.”
