Dignity and Destiny

Theology

“In this richly documented text John Kilner makes a case for the theological centrality and historical impact of the idea that humans are made in the image of God - for good but also for ill. . . . All readers will be enriched by Kilner's thoughtful argument and challenged by his exploration of the potency of an idea.”

Foundations of Chaplaincy

Church Leadership & Ministry

“A clear, lively, and theologically grounded exposition of the distinctive calling of chaplaincy, richly illustrated with stories and biblical resources. The book offers an account of the dimensions of the chaplain’s role as a facilitator or provider of religious services to those of diverse traditions but also a skilled and caring presence for people facing any of the challenges of human life and an adviser to organizational leaders. This is a much-needed resource for a form of ministry of growing importance in our religiously plural world.”

Kingdom Ethics, 2nd ed.

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Freshly conceived, newly organized, carefully explicit about both method and the complexity of concrete moral judgments, this book exemplifies what we all want evangelical Christian ethics to be — centered on Jesus, deeply grounded in Scripture, and attentive to emerging issues and new concerns as God’s people seek to discern the shape of a life lived in faithful response to the in-breaking kingdom.”

Life among the Powers

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Rick Elgendy brings greater analytic rigor and clarity to the politically potent discourse of the powers and principalities. His realism about our inescapable complicity in structural evil adds significant ethical illumination. Perhaps even more critically, it funds a spirituality of faithful resistance nourished by Christian commitments and critical self-awareness. A genuine gift to the evolving literature of political theology.”

May She Have a Word with You?

Arts & Literature

“S T Kimbrough, Jr. has offered here a gift to all those who love the poetry and lyrics of Charles Wesley, as well as all who are hungry for evidence of the lives and impact of women in the church and wider English society in the eighteenthth century. Carefully gathered and meticulously analyzed, these texts celebrating the labor, witness, and spiritual leadership of these diverse women provide a rare glimpse of the nearly invisible history of women and the imprint their holiness left on those who were privileged to know them.”

On Moral Medicine

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Freshly conceived and organized, with a mix of classic and recent contributions to the field, On Moral Medicine will remain an invaluable resource for those who teach and study the practice of medicine as a testament to our most fundamental commitments.”

Thy Will Be Done

Christian Living

“This little book on a familiar topic is full of enduring questions and bracing insights, of piquant definitions and memorable lines that lift and nerve the heart. Meilaender offers an interpretation of the Decalogue that is focused on the bonds that sustain human life and community, and presents it as God's gift to us, giving shape to a life of love.”
