15 New Testament Words of Life
Theology
“While the New Testament is full of depth and complexity, its most important ideas have a profound simplicity to them. In this collection of word studies, Nijay Gupta explores foundational themes in New Testament theology, but in a very accessible way. If you’re looking to deepen your understanding of some of the most essential concepts in Christian belief, this book is for you.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Pastors and church planters today face a bewildering variety of options and opinions about how to 'do church' in our contemporary, digital age. It's an age-old dilemma: When do our efforts to 'adapt' to a new cultural setting end up compromising what the Jesus movement has to offer the world? In this book Jay Kim offers a timely and poignant set of reflections that no ministry leader can afford to ignore.”
Theology
“The image of God is one of the most foundational ideas in the biblical story and in Christian faith. But it's a dense, multilayered concept with huge implications for how we understand humanity's role in the world and in relationship to God. Carmen Imes has given us an accessible and profound exploration of this most important biblical theme. She not only shows what this idea meant in its ancient biblical context but also how it leads into the story of Jesus and the mission of his followers still today.”
Apologetics
“In our culture the Bible has, for many people, become an obstacle in the journey of faith. Biblical stories about sex, slavery, and divine violence are often too bizarre and disturbing for most modern readers. Dan Kimball understands this from personal and pastoral experience, and he’s given us a thoughtful guide for reading these problematic parts of the Bible. If you’re struggling to make moral sense of the Bible, or know someone who is, this book is for you!”

He has distilled current research in ritual theory and biblical studies and has given us a creative exploration of how our rituals shape our lives and moral imaginations. Prepare to rethink everything you thought you knew about religious rituals!”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“One of the most crucial skills in reading the Bible is learning to recognize narrative analogies between different stories. Seth Postell’s book is an accessible and practical introduction to this all-important topic. He shows how the biblical authors use narrative analogy pervasively and to great effect. If you’re looking to expand your tool kit for reading the Bible on its own terms, this book is essential reading.”

Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Patrick Schreiner has given a wonderful gift to the church through this book on the kingdom of God. It’s a creatively written and accessible entryway into this essential biblical theme. Schreiner honors the unified narrative shape of the Old and New Testaments, and he shows how every part of the Bible (including the Wisdom Literature!) contributes to the developing portrait of God’s kingdom over creation and new creation. If you’ve ever struggled to understand this complex biblical theme or tried to communicate it to others, you’ve now found the place to start.”

“The New Testament texts were produced with a high level of literary artistry, so it only makes sense that we use the arts to better understand them. This creative book is a wonderful visual exploration of the design and main themes of every New Testament book. Highly recommended!”
Apologetics
“Dominic Done has taken a deep and personal dive into the difficult questions that haunt Christians the most. In a time when many people view skepticism as a threat to our faith, Done reframes the entire conversation. What if our doubts can become a gateway into new and deeper experiences of faith? Prepare to be challenged and encouraged, all at the same time!”
