Building Bridges

History & Biography

“Building Bridges displays biography at its best, fully encompassing one life, yet written larger than life. The authors deftly set the narrative of Letha Dawson Scanzoni and her pioneering writings on sex and gender to showcase her pivotal challenge to the reigning contours of American evangelicalism. Scanzoni stands tall and courageous in this book, a prophet calling the American church to the biblical stance of justice for all.”

Christmas Contrasts

Arts & Literature

“This Advent season, savor poignant and powerful contrasts set to poetic verse by S T Kimbrough Jr. These poems sing out contrasts of silence alongside the angels’ song, contrasts of Christ’s birth and every child’s birth, contrasts of Palestine and Bethlehem past and present. Kimbrough’s ‘rhythmic words will lead you ‘to sing a new song of the contrasts of Christmas!’”

The Methodist Defense of Women in Ministry

Women

“Loud applause to Paul Chilcote for continuing his noteworthy vocation of recovering Methodist women’s substantial presence, influence, and writings. In this latest volume, he recovers specifically their writings on the defense of women in ministry, from Mary Bosanquet in the eighteenth century to Georgia Harkness in the twentieth. His recovery work in this regard not only informs but also, and even more importantly, moves us now—in this present hour—to affirm boldly and unequivocally the full equality of women in ministry.”

Witness

Evangelism & Missions

“Yong’s prophetic book invites readers on an intricate, courageous journey—guided by a deep dive into Luke’s writings—to reimagine Christian mission as ‘witness with’ and evangelism as prompting a full-orbed conversion in hearers and message-bearers alike. His discussion of missiological and evangelistic considerations—as inevitably enmeshed in sociopolitical contexts—challenges Christians to be careful and humble as they bear witness to the gospel message.”

Women

“A must-read for Christians committed to digging down to the bedrock on the issue of women in ministry. Smythe asks the right questions and offers thoughtful and accessible answers. Perfect for church and classroom settings.”
