Humanist Christology of Paul

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Although an integral part of his five-volume work in christology, this work stands apart as a constructive hermeneutical study of Paul and a theological anthropological groundwork for liberation theology.”

New Wineskins

Theology

“Sin, salvation, and spirituality define the core narrative of Christian faith. This book presents the shortest, clearest, and most incisive critique of these traditional doctrines that I’ve seen. More importantly, Amer also offers a coherent, sound, and spiritually inspiring way of retrieving the tradition in an evolutionary biological and psychological framework. This book is a new requirement for courses in Christology because it promotes a discussion that cannot responsibly be ignored in our time.”

Postmodernity

Theology

“Lakeland's book brings postmodernity into sharp relief. He lifts the fog through short, focused appraisals of key philosophers and theologians. He captures the contents of postmodernity through expert analysis of its salient themes. And he measures its ambiguity because of different cultural interpretations and valuations. Lakeland's work ranks with David Tracy's Plurality and Ambiguity in defining the issues for theology today…Fundamental reading.”

Redeeming Jesus’ Name

Theology

“This is a book of witness. Maureena Fritz testifies to a new experience of Jesus as the revealer of a God who is an intimately loving presence to all. Only an uncompromising love of Judaism and Jews can help atone for the historical effects of the doctrine of Christian supremacy. Fritz tells us how we may begin.”

The Writing on the Wall

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In this book, Eric Martin evokes memories of Merton and the Berrigans as he looks for a public Catholicism responsive to our present-day polarization. This well-written narrative essay covers recent events, alternates between action and contemplation, and offers moral and spiritual commentary. The writing engages the reader with eyewitness authenticity, and the interviews with activists are moving. The message rings true: white supremacy has no legitimate voice in our politics.”

There Must Be YOU

History & Biography

“Leonard Swidler has been a fixture of American religious, Catholic, and intellectual life for almost fifty years since his founding of the Journal of Ecumenical Studies. Swidler ranks dialogue among the supreme values of this world; his brilliant formulation of its rules amount to an implicit religious anthropology. This splendid book uniquely folds 'live' conversation with Len into the narrative of past events to create a personal dialogue. The book is moving and irresistible.”

Truths about Evil, Sin, and the Demonic

Theology

“Evil is a problem for theists; it compounds the mystery of God. In a selective but accurate way—beginning with the book of Job—Belitsos highlights turning points in the history of theodicy. His approach is open and ecumenical. He leaves ample room for mystery and yet brings clarity that transcends the typical claim of an ‘impasse.’ This well-written and thorough theological treatise really touches on topics vital to every thinking Christian at some point in their lives.”
