Divine Violence and the Character of God

Theology

“In this extraordinary book, Mariottini shows how the warrior God of Mount Sinai is consistent with the grace and mercy revealed in Jesus Christ. Instead of avoiding or excusing Old Testament stories of violence and multigenerational suffering, Mariottini explains difficult passages and corrects popular English translations. . . . This volume is a valuable resource to any pastor or teacher wrestling with suffering in the Bible and the world today.”

Jude

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“David Seal has written a groundbreaking commentary of Jude. He lifts this epistle out of the silent, private approach of most studies and locates Jude in an active performance with an audience. Drawing richly on ancient Greco-Roman rhetorical devices, Seal challenges conventional interpretations and helps the reader listen carefully to Jude’s warnings. Seal offers exegetical insights, performance-critical notes, and practical applications that provide fresh insights to pastors and teachers.”

Living the King Jesus Gospel

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Scot McKnight has guided a generation of students, pastors, and colleagues along the journey of the Christ-formed life. This book provides a road map for teachers and preachers to surrender to King Jesus, follow him, and embody the Gospel. Drawing from biblical themes, Christian history, and church ministry, these authors testify to how Scot’s writing and teaching continue to impact the kingdom of God through the congregation and the classroom.”

The Leap

Work, Money & Leadership

“With his real world experience and insight, Robert Dickie names one of the critical issues for the American worker. Since 2007, each person must chart a course into the new economy. Instead of leaving us on the edge of the cliff, he provides real-time guidance and role models for resourceful people wanting to take the leap onto solid ground. Instead of waiting for the world to change, Dickie encourages us to take the next step with an accountable mentor, proven principles, and biblical wisdom. This book shows how a person can use a strong work ethic and apply it to the real world we live in now. How we work today really matters, and this book gives us the courage to jump and the knowledge to land safely.”
