Apologetics
“With all the balanced expository and forensic skills of his brilliant legal mind, and an erudite command of the literature in several related fields in science, philosophy, and theology, Kenneth Crispin offers that rare thing in debates on skepticism and belief, a ‘fair go’ to all sides, and a compelling case for doubt and trust in the service of truth.”
A Theology for the Twenty-First Century
Theology
“Rarely has the exposition of a set of theological propositions been so spiritually refreshing, so intellectually stimulating, and so ethically challenging as Douglas Ottati’s Theology for the Twenty-First Century. Like his own Reformed tradition’s approach to confessions, he gives a faithful account of Christianity for these times, consonant with the church’s scriptures, with theological tradition, and with our contemporary knowledge. He has excelled in this endeavor, and his work will endure as ‘a theology that speaks to all Christians.’”
Apologetics
“With characteristic clarity and erudition, Elaine Graham invites us to see public theology as the new apologetics—not arguing for one’s beliefs against skeptics, but making the case for God’s presence in the world by the lives we live there, shaped by the Christian story.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Has the West lost its pizzazz and gravitas? asks Marcia Pally at the start of Commonwealth and Covenant. Not if we read this magisterial study of relationality in Western theology and culture, brimming as it is with her signature brio and erudition as a leading thinker on religion and society. With an original and compelling thesis as her lantern, Pally lights up not only the history of ideas with dazzling insight but also our present parlous state with hopeful remedy.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Paul Metzger is a prophetic voice in the American evangelical community. His theological vision of a church consumed by Christ and not by consumerism could not be more timely or helpful. Writing with scholarly depth and human empathy, he exposes the consumerist roots of racial and economic divisions in the body of Christ and shows how faithfulness to the gospel leads to a reconciled evangelical community and witness.”
History & Biography
Foreword
“A commitment to public education is the spine of the Scottish Reformed tradition. John Stevenson's authoritative study of the resilience of the Church of Scotland in sustaining that Reformation commitment in the face of the enormous challenges of a modern society undergoing profound economic and social change is an inspiring example to Reformed churches and educators around the world today. I commend it to that global readership and to all who are concerned for education.”
Theology
“Globalization is a vital issue for the church today, and Richard Gibb has important things to say about it. Especially prominent in his lucid argument is a concern that the church's approach to issues of global justice be rooted in the theology of grace. This is interdisciplinary thinking from a thoroughly Christian theological base.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This is the guide to the Gospels that educators and lay readers have been waiting for—a clear and compelling account of the religious and social world at the time of Jesus with insights on every page.”
Evangelism & Missions
“This is the most insightful book on mission in a Western context since Newbigin’s Foolishness to the Greeks . . . Forsyth critically retrieves [Tom] Allan’s ecumenical commitment to lay evangelism and social engagement to offer a dialogical approach to mission for Western Christians in increasingly secular and pluralist societies. The author is a worthy heir and renewer of Allan’s legacy for today.”
Theology
“Combining the searing observations on contemporary religion of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, the searing insights into the religious life of Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress, and the searing honesty of Hammarskjöld’s search for God in Markings, Nicholas Peter Harvey and Linda Woodhead’s coauthorship out of friendship has given us a spiritual classic for our time, a truly non-abusive theology.”
Arts & Literature
“Drawing together the wisdom of a lifetime from his earliest days in a loving parental home down through his own long years of faithful pilgrimage and reflective inquiry, the poet shares the fruits of his thinking on thinking to enrich ours in this modern-day book of Proverbs. I found insights into the human condition on every page and commend it warmly to all who would ‘get wisdom, which is better than gold.’”
