A Lifetime in the Church and the University

History & Biography

“This is classic Thiselton--ranging over all his many interests with a meticulous eye for detail, a gentle sense of humor, and an overriding concern for the glory of God and spread of the gospel. Having accompanied him as a friend and colleague over the last three decades, it was instructive and interesting to read Tony's take on aspects of the journey we have shared in scholarship and the academic life, as well as in the church and ministry. I don't know how he has managed to achieve it all, but I'm grateful and wish him well for the future.”

Art and the Experience of the Divine

Arts & Literature

“A fascinating mixture of art, spirituality, and theology, as an expert theologian and artist collaborate to take us on a rich journey through various Old Master drawings of biblical and spiritual themes, sensitively explained and each concluding with helpful meditations and prayers to assist us to discover art as a ‘Way to God.’”

Reading Mark's Christology Under Caesar

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Building upon his earlier work on Mark, Adam Winn develops a fascinating reading of Markan Christology against the backdrop of Roman imperial power and propaganda under Vespasian in the immediate aftermath of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in AD 70. Constantly rooted in contemporary Latin sources, this demonstration that Jesus' power is perfected in his suffering, while his passion and crucifixion demonstrate his triumph, is greatly to be welcomed.”

The Framework of the Story of Jesus

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“A century later, KL Schmidt’s Framework still provides not only the basis for the story of Jesus, with its detailed argument that Gospel pericopae are stand-alone stories—but also for all Gospel studies ever since. I warmly welcome this English translation, and only wish that it had been available when I was doing my own doctorate on Gospel genre—for Schmidt’s ‘framework’ is also true for many other ancient biographies.”
