A Unicorn Dies

Fiction

“Notable Oxford academics, like J. R. R. Tolkien or C. S. Lewis, send their heroes on hazardous journeys. Paul Fiddes lays an intricate trail from York to Paris to Rome, from New York to Colmar to Stirling, as his undergraduate hero, Giles, investigates two suspicious deaths which are linked to mythological depictions of the unicorn. This is another Oxford murder mystery, but with a theological twist, as the code of the death of the unicorn is finally revealed.”

Discovering Psalms

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This book is the product of some thirty years’ experience of teaching and writing for both the church and academy. It enters a competitive market, but Jerome Creach’s passion for the Psalms has resulted in an eminently readable introduction.”

Psalms 101–150

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Although preaching from the Psalter was a regular practice in the early church, nowadays Christians might sing and pray the Psalms, but rarely listen to a sermon one of them. Abraham Kuruvilla’s commentary skillfully reverses this trend. He takes seriously each psalm in its poetic Hebrew medium then applies its theological message, however difficult, to Christian discipleship today. No minister now has an excuse for avoiding preaching from the book of Psalms.”

Psalms in an Age of Distraction

Christian Living

“Observing that social media can distract us from investing in meaningful relationships, Ethan Jones suggests a novel alternative. While the physicality of digital images on our mobile devices provokes curiosity so that we want more, the ethereal quality of poetic images in the book of Psalms provide a reassuring stability. Jones uses several psalms to illustrate their universal poetic appeal in our transient world, offering a fascinating reclamation of ancient biblical poetry for a contemporary setting.”
