A Classical Response to Relational Theism
Theology
“Much contemporary theology, including evangelical theology, argues that the classic understanding of God is not in accord with the Bible. Brian Orr, in this significant volume, not only decisively refutes such a notion but also admirably and creatively demonstrates the truth and beauty of the classical understanding of God as a Trinity of persons. Orr has done evangelical Christians a great service, as well as the whole of the Christian academy.”
Al investigar el misterio de la Iglesia
Theology
“Mark Kinzer ha escrito un libro profundamente sugerente y significativo para el avance de la comunión entre judíos mesiánicos e Iglesia católica. Presenta de forma clara y creativa sus argumentos bíblicos y teológicos, y el entrecruzamiento de su peregrinación personal hasta la fe en Jesús. Su viaje posterior en esa fe conmociona y añade elocuencia a su proyecto teológico. La academia teológica, y especialmente los eruditos católicos dentro de ella, deberían ocuparse seriamente de este libro, y los obispos católicos deberían leerlo con mirada comprensiva y espíritu perceptivo.”
Biblical Foundations for the Role of Healing in Evangelization
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“The New Evangelization will not succeed without a revival of the healing ministry within the Catholic Church. Miraculous healing, as it was for Jesus, is indispensable in proclaiming the gospel for it bears witness to the gospel's saving power. Thelen's small book clearly and lucidly demonstrates the importance of healing in the ministry of Jesus and in the life of the Apostolic Church, and in so doing establishes the importance of the healing ministry in our own day. Thelen's book provides clergy and laity alike the needed theological foundation and the indispensable pastoral inspiration for them to proclaim boldly Jesus' Gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit to the glory of God the Father.”
Theology
“Jordan Steffaniak has authored a creative and insightful book on classical theism. He treats both the nature and the history of the doctrine of God. Moreover, significantly, he does so within an ecclesial and ecumenical context—both Catholic and Protestant. He also critically contrasts it with other contemporary notions of God, such as Open Theism and Process Theism. Where he manifests his theological acumen is when he treats the various divine attributes—divine simplicity, immutability, impassibility, and eternity. What I found extremely helpful is that he provides the biblical basis for such philosophical attributes. This is a marvelous book, one that must be read by anyone who values mere classical theism, and even ones who don’t.”
Theology
“An exciting scholarly contribution to our understanding of God's election as well as to furthering contemporary theological ecumenism.”
Theology
“This series richly provides what has for so long been lacking among contemporary scriptural commentaries. Its goal is to assist Catholic preachers and teachers, lay and ordained, in their ministry of the word. Moreover, it offers ordinary Catholics a scriptural resource that will enhance their understanding of God’s word and thereby deepen their faith. Thus these commentaries, nourished on the faith of the Church and guided by scholarly wisdom, are both exegetically sound and spiritually nourishing.”
Theology
“The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture richly provides what has for so long been lacking among contemporary scriptural commentaries. Its goal is to assist Catholic preachers and teachers, lay and ordained, in their ministry of the Word. Moreover, it offers ordinary Catholics a scriptural resource that will enhance their understanding of God’s Word and thereby deepen their faith. Thus these commentaries, nourished on the faith of the Church and guided by scholarly wisdom, are both exegetically sound and spiritually nourishing.”
First and Second Timothy, Titus
Theology
“This series richly provides what has for so long been lacking among contemporary scriptural commentaries. Its goal is to assist Catholic preachers and teachers, lay and ordained, in their ministry of the word. Moreover, it offers ordinary Catholics a scriptural resource that will enhance their understanding of God’s word and thereby deepen their faith. Thus these commentaries, nourished on the faith of the Church and guided by scholarly wisdom, are both exegetically sound and spiritually nourishing.”
Theology
“"James E. Dolezal has authored a philosophically rigorous and theologically thorough defense of divine simplicity, and he has done so for positive reasons. For Dolezal, the whole rationale for defending the simplicity of God is to assure that we actually come to know, though not fully comprehend, God as he truly is--the God of reason and revelation, the God of the Christian philosophical and theological tradition. Dolezal has made a very admirable and extremely significant contribution to the discussion of God's simplicity.”
How Did Jesus Know He Was God?
Theology
“William Chami, in his short monograph, has addressed an important and fascinating theological issue—that of how Jesus, as the incarnate Son of God, came to know, in a human manner, that he is the Father’s Son. In examining three authors, of whom I am honored to be one of those selected, Chami has placed all of the issues in their historical context, as well as within their contemporary theological setting—and he has done so with meticulous clarity, intellectual creativity, and discriminate judgment. This book is a must-read for anyone addressing the topic of Christ’s human consciousness and knowledge.”
Interpreting the Song of Songs
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Although the Song of Songs mentions God only once, it has consistently generated various interpretations of the one loved and the lover. Written by an array of competent authors, this volume provides an excellent history of various interpretations—from early Jewish interpretations and the fathers of the church, through the Middle Ages, to the Reformation, to contemporary authors. This book is a very good contribution to the study of the Song of Songs.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“As is his first volume of Jesus of Nazareth, so, once again, in his second volume Pope Benedict XVI has authored a marvelous book, this time on the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. What makes this study so attractive is the depth of its biblical insight, its attention to historical issues, its keen theological acumen, and its lucid and precise expression. Moreover, as with the first volume, it is written in a serene and prayerful manner - a serenity and a prayerfulness that is conveyed to the heart and mind of the reader. This book fulfills Pope Benedict's ardent desire - that it would "be helpful to all readers who seek to encounter Jesus and to believe in him.”
Pope Francis and the Event of Encounter
Theology
“The Church’s emphatic call for a new evangelization began with Pope Paul VI, has journeyed through the pontificates of John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and now continues with Pope Francis. This commendable volume accentuates, in fifteen thoughtful and innovative essays, Pope Francis’s understanding of the new evangelization as a fourfold encounter: merciful encounters, ecological encounters, doctrinal encounters, and cultural and political encounters. Thus, this book admirably provides the needed sociological, philosophical, and theological depth to sustain and foster the Church’s renewed endeavor to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations and peoples.”
History & Biography
“Mike Aquilina, a prodigious writer, is ingenious at choosing topics the average person would never consider. In this present volume, he has exceeded himself. Only Mike would author a book on twelve ancient cities that became centers of Christianity and were transformed amid the rabbles, the riots, and the ruins. This is an informative and captivating book, and so fun to read!”
Richard of Saint Victor, On the Trinity
Theology
“"Ruben Angelici deserves great credit for his commentary and translation of Richard of St. Victor's On the Trinity. His scholarship is impeccable and insightful and his translation is accurate and lucid. This is a most welcome and much needed contribution to the theological academy.”
Theology
“Mark Kinzer has written a deeply thought-provoking and significant book on furthering the communion between Messianic Jews and the Catholic Church. He presents clearly and creatively his scriptural and theological arguments, and the interweaving of his personal pilgrimage to faith in Jesus. His subsequent journey in that faith adds poignancy and eloquence to his theological project. The theological academy, and especially the Catholic scholars within it, ought seriously to engage this book, and Catholic bishops ought to read it with a sympathetic eye and a discerning spirit.”
Christian Living
“Matthew Barrett is a theologian who delights in the Trinity, a man who perceives the Trinity’s importance. Because of his love of the Trinity, Barrett is flustered by the fact that many twentieth-century evangelical theologians have used and distorted the Trinity for their own social and political agendas. They have misinterpreted the Scriptures. They are ignorant of the church fathers and much of the Christian theological tradition. They have set the Trinity adrift. Barrett’s book is a refutation of such trinitarian drift, but more so, it is a clear, creative, robust, and scholarly presentation of the Trinity, a presentation that will bring joy to the minds and love to the hearts of all who read it. In so doing, all will give praise to the Father, honor to the Son, and glory to the Holy Spirit.”
