Catholics and Evangelicals for the Common Good

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“While many today are familiar with the new, more positive relationship developing between Roman Catholics and evangelicals, few have expected to find a convergence in the areas of justice and social policy. This collection of essays, edited by Ronald Sider and John Borelli, shows how the two communities are learning from each other in their efforts to address the common good. It’s both an honest exploration and a sign of hope.”

Homilies in a New Key

Preaching & Worship

“The homilies Egan presents are practical and deeply personal, well-informed theologically, frequently humorous, occasionally irreverent, and always challenging. Playing with paradox and reflecting a love of nature, he makes the Scriptures come alive. It is a book to be read slowly and savored.”

I Live, No Longer I

Christian Living

“Laura Hogan unpacks Saint Paul's rich theology of transformation in Christ through the lens of his cross. Theologically sophisticated, it is also highly personal, drawing on her ability to see God working in the ordinary, the everyday, and especially the painful. But even in those more difficult moments we all experience, she finds joy in God's mysterious presence. A deeply Christian book.”

One Body in Christ

Theology

“How do the different Christian traditions understand the church? Owen Cummings's helpful little book brings together ecumenical 'snapshots' from Anglican, Catholic, Methodist, and Presbyterian perspectives. The result is a useful step toward ecclesial reconciliation.”

The Evolution of Catholic Social Ethics

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Father Frank Colborn—seminary professor, ecumenist, and pastor—has spent years immersing himself in the history of social thought. His present book, ecumenical in approach but focused on the Catholic tradition, introduces thinkers, synthesizes positions, outlines key principles, and raises provocative questions, always leaving the students free to apply what they have read to contemporary issues. Easy to read, the book would make a useful introduction for undergraduates as well as an excellent text for graduate students interested in the development of social ethics.”

The Fruits of Grace

History & Biography

“Sister Minke's book, the fruit of her long years at Grandchamp, is a moving testimony to the wonderful spirit of forgiveness, reconciliation, and striving for unity that animates this wonderful community of Protestant monastic women. It touched me deeply.”
