A New People in Christ

A New People in Christ

What is union with Christ? What role does this theme play in the Epistle to the Romans? Does union with Christ have an Old Testament background or did Paul create the concept for his own theological purposes? These questions will be answered in this exegetical study of Romans. Special attention is given to Paul's use of Old Testament stories in relation to union with Christ. It will be shown that Paul understands union with Christ to be the climax of the human story–a story of creation and...

A New Reading of Jacques Ellul

Jacob Marques Rollison

A New Reading of Jacques Ellul

This book presents an original and dynamic reading of the twentieth-century French sociologist and theological ethicist Jacques Ellul. Adopting Ellul’s use of ‘presence’ as a hermeneutical key to understanding his work, it examines the origins of Ellul’s approach to presence in his readings of Kierkegaard and the biblical book of Ecclesiastes, highlights the central structural role of presence in Ellul’s theological ethics, and elucidates a...

A New World

Robert M. Keane

A New World

Jim Meagher's world as a young man in the Irish-American neighborhood of Riverdale, New York, in the 1950s was a familiar and comfortable one, defined by family, church, school, and friendship. But was there something more to experience from life that could only be found outside those friendly confines? What if he could be a great man, with power and influence and riches? Life would soon take him beyond Riverdale–far beyond it–and teach him valuable lessons about duty, honor, and...

A Nun, a Convent, and the German Occupation of Belgium

World War I has been recorded from many points of view: correspondent, poet, politician, and soldier. Comments from a nun living in a foreign country during the hostilities, however, can provide new insights. Isoline Jones was born in 1876 in England, and attended the boarding school at Tildonk, Belgium, run by the Ursuline sisters. She eventually converted to Roman Catholicism from Anglicanism and made her perpetual vows in 1907 as a member of the Ursuline community. Her religious name was...

A Pacifist Way of Knowing

John Howard Yoder

A Pacifist Way of Knowing

In A Pacifist Way of Knowing: John Howard Yoder's Nonviolent Epistemology, editors Christian Early and Ted Grimsrud gather the scattered writings of Yoder on the theme of the relationship between gospel, peace, and human ways of knowing. In them, they find the beginnings of a pacifist theology of knowledge that rejects strategies of empire while at the same time avoids a self-defeating relativism.

A Philosophy for Today’s Changing World

For some thousands of years, the World has been the battle ground to decide which religious viewpoint, is to become the main player in the “God” stakes, but, none of the three main contenders – Judaism, Christianity, or Islam – can really substantiate any claims that they, alone, can speak with authority, of God’s precepts. That they have the right to speak of their representational view-points and Pathways is, of course, undoubted, but the thousands of deaths that have...

A Place Somewhat Apart

Philip E. Harrold

A Place Somewhat Apart

The story of secularization and religious disestablishment in American higher education is told from the standpoint of a lively community of professors, students, and administrators at the University of Michigan in the late nineteenth century. This campus culture–one of the most closely watched of its day–sheds new light on the personal and cultural meanings of these momentous changes in American intellectual and public life. Here we see how religion was not so much displaced or marginalized in...

Small churches need the work of all of their people to survive, and this means that there's a productive place in the church family for every person, no matter how gifted or challenged.

A Portrait of Christ

A Portrait of Christ

What is Jesus like? What kind of a person is he? Is he emotional or stoic? Is he proud or humble? Is he aloof or friendly? This book attempts to answer these types of questions. After demonstrating that Jesus is the promised Christ and that he is both divine and human, this book examines Jesus' personal characteristics as they are displayed in the four Gospels. The four Gospels are clearly not a typical biography of Jesus. Nonetheless, they do provide an informative account of his life here...

A Primer on the Book of Daniel

"The Common Market is going to be the kingdom of the Antichrist!" "Jesus will return within 40 years of the creation of the state of Israel in 1948!" "The Battle of Armageddon will come when the Soviet Union invades Israel over oil!" Those newspaper mileposts passed and the Soviet Union fell. The faithful Christian has his faith shaken every time prophetic teaching based on the New York Times fails. Critics have a field day with each wrong interpretation. Then a new theory...

a product of Christ

You’re saved. You’re a Christian. Now what? Salvation is only the beginning. Your Savior wants to fill your every void, but that can only happen if you truly know Him. Don’t settle for a superficial Christianity, when God wants you to have more. Scripture gives us the answers, but opening the Word of God can be intimidating. A Product of Christ gives meaning to things even lifelong Christians struggle to explain. Written in a way that...

Throughout his career, Douglass has argued forcefully for the integration of contemplation and resistance, theology and cultural critique, spirituality and prophetic involvement. His work has inspired many of the key figures in recent debates regarding just war, Christian nonviolence, and radical discipleship and continues to...
