Empathic Communities

“Johanna Selles has written a compelling book on the importance of empathy in professional relationships, especially those fostered in ministry and health care work. The reader will gain much from the impressive clarity and creative applicability of her analysis. In fact, the book should be required reading for all concerned about the care of persons and the practice of compassionate justice.”

Jesus’ Life in Dying

Theology

“This is an admirable set of translations of nine sermons by Schleiermacher on the redemptive work of Christ, particularly focused on his death but not in disconnection from his life. Along with an excellent introduction, the collection adds substantively to Schleiermacher scholarship in rounding out our understanding not only of Schleiermacher’s theology but also of the rich theological role preaching plays in the living community of the church. I highly recommend this book.”

Kinship in the Household of God

Theology

“Cynthia Tam has written a well-conceived and thoughtfully researched book that adds a distinctive, case-study-based, practical theological voice to the literature on theology and disability. . . . The takeaway is compelling: belonging together as church is itself a process of ongoing discovery through which all—those with autism along with neurotypical—learn to value each other as indispensable members of the body of Christ.”

Lonergan, Social Transformation, and Sustainable Human Development

Philosophy

“This book brings contemporary development discourse and Catholic social teachings into conversation with Lonergan's philosophical anthropology. . . . I highly commend this book, which presents a focused and well-researched application of Lonergan's work to a contemporary context of relevance.”

My Body Is Not a Prayer Request

Church Leadership & Ministry

“This book is sure to challenge churches in precisely the right ways. Kenny writes with an honest, compelling, clear, and prophetic style, artfully weaving together personal narratives with rich biblical understanding. The result offers transformative possibilities for cultivating faithful communities of belonging for all.”

Schleiermacher on Christian Consciousness of God's Work in History

Theology

“Abraham Kunnuthara has written a well conceived and creative book, offering a reading of the Christian Faith that presents its theology 'in reverse'--beginning not from the Introduction but from the theme of redemption in Christ as presented later in Part Two. This strategy opens novel access to the Christological and historical character of Schleiermacher's dogmatics, insofar as it highlights the point that Christian consciousness of God's work in history is identical with God's work in Jesus. The book is an insightful achievement. I will recommend it to students as a solid resource for engaging Schleiermacher.”

The Hunger Winter

Fiction

“A beautiful story of care, courage, and resilience amidst the worst of scenarios. The Hunger Winter will draw readers in and inspire hope in humanity.”

Waiting at the Foot of the Cross

Theology

“Waiting at the Foot of the Cross is a compelling invitation to reconsider the theology of the cross in a North American context through the complementary lenses of George Grant and Douglas John Hall. Far more than simply a recapitulation of Grant and Hall, however, the discussion turns over new theological ground and offers a thick account of hope as 'waiting' that is both prophetic and consoling. McCarroll has written an important and timely book.”
