“Dr. Ragui has given us an important book, engaging the theological interpretation of Scripture with a significant Asian context. Where so much of theology is written with a blind Western worldview, we need such a thoughtful and stimulating voice to expand our thinking and help contextualize our theological method more sharply. I thoroughly commend this book to a wide readership.”

Reading the Bible as a Postexilic Biblical Author Read

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Dr. Huu-Thien’s study of the Chronicler’s interpretative method—and connecting this to post-colonial and dalit readings of Scripture—is a clear and fascinating study. His book is of value not only to Asian readers, exposing flaws in both post-colonial and dalit readings, but also for Western readers who will benefit significantly from this study and its approach. I highly commend this book.”

The Bonds of Brotherhood

Fiction

“Bob Mitchell’s debut novel is a wonderful story that will gently guide teenagers thinking about values, character, ethics, and maturity. The characters come to life as they deal with a range of issues. There is humor and emotion in an engaging story. I am delighted to commend this book.”

The Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Thomas Renz has written an outstanding commentary on Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah. Scholarly yet pastoral, thorough yet accessible; students and preachers of these books alike will be helped enormously. Renz doesn’t smother the text under a weight of detail but lets it live, explaining it lucidly and helping us see its trajectories for Christian thinking and application.”
