"All Shall Be Well"

"All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well." Lady Julian of Norwich Universalism runs like a slender thread through the history of Christian theology. It has always been a minority report and has often been regarded as heresy, but it has proven to be a surprisingly resilient «idea.» Over the centuries Christian universalism, in one form or another, has been reinvented time and time again. In this book an international team of scholars explore...

"Education Has Nothing to Do with Theology"

Does education have any relation to theology? How do the educator's worldview commitments speak to his or her practice of education? James Michael Lee brought a definite answer to these questions–a firm no to the relations question, and an advocacy for empirical findings over and against any speculative or theoretical positions in reply to the commitments question. Lee claimed to have a universal, neutral metatheory for all religious education, a theory that would apply to all religious...

"God Is Dead" and I Don't Feel So Good Myself

In this pertinent and engaging volume leading Christian philosophers, theologians, and writers from all over the denominational map explode the black-and-white binaries that characterize both sides of the New Atheism debate. They transcend the self-assured shouting matches of this latest expression of the culture wars by engaging in rigorous, polychromatic Christian reflection that considers the extent to which the atheistic critique-both new and old-might help the church move toward a more...

"In the Original Text It Says"

Benjamin J. Baxter

"In the Original Text It Says"

When you hear the words «in the original text it says» or «in the original text this means,» it's time to be wary. Those words often provide the introduction to misleading information. But how can the hearer discern just what is correct and what is misleading? How can pastors avoid giving their congregations misleading information? "In the Original Text It Says" takes a look at word-study fallacies and how you can avoid them. Author Ben Baxter gives an introduction to word meaning...

"Nimm und iss ..."

"Nimm und iss dieses Buch" lautet die Aufforderung, die Johannes im biblischen Buch der Offenbarung von einem Engel erhält. Eugene H. Peterson lädt ein, sich von der Bibel formen zu lassen, Teil der biblischen Geschichten zu werden. Er macht Mut, dieses Buch «zu essen», in sich aufzunehmen, es zu leben und nicht nur zu lesen – und zwar erfrischend unkonventionell! Peterson ist überzeugt: Gott lädt uns heute noch ein, sein Wort in uns aufzunehmen: «Nimm und iss …»

"Pray for Me"

Kenneth H. Carter Jr.

"Pray for Me"

"Pray for me," someone says to you. How seriously do you take such a request? Ken Carter, a pastor for nearly 30 years, says he has learned to honor the request «Pray for me» as a cry for help. «It is an acknowledgment that we are limited and finite creatures. It is a trust placed in a higher power,» he comments. «It is always prompted by a situation that would not be desired, yet it is always an occasion for the grace of God.» Carter compares a person in need—whether it's...

"Professor Heussi? I Thought You Were a Book"

Professor Heussi? I Thought You are a Book is an entertaining account of six decades of graduate education with the subtitle A Memoir of Memorable Theological Educators, 1950-2010. In personal encounters as well as in books, academic icons appear on the horizon of memory: Viktor Frankl in Vienna, Karl Barth in Basel, Carl Jung in Zurich, Reinhold Niebuhr in New York, Paul Tillich at Harvard, and the doctor father Roland Bainton at Yale. They are mixed with has-beens, upstarts, and other special...

"The Church as the Image of the Trinity"

A resurgence of Trinitarian interest gained momentum in the twentieth century and it is showing little sign of abating in the twenty-first century. This research endeavors to critically evaluate Miroslav Volf's ecclesial model for «the church as the image of the Trinity,» one that he presents with the English title, After Our Likeness. Volf proposes a social doctrine of the Trinity, one that is heavily influenced by the theological writings of Jurgen Moltmann, and he puts forward that this...

"Those Who Call Themselves Jews"

Philip L. Mayo

"Those Who Call Themselves Jews"

The nature of Jewish-Christian relations at the end of the first century has been a subject of serious study and considerable debate. The time between 70 and 150 CE is held to be a volatile time in that Jewish-Christian relations were quickly, although not uniformly, deteriorating. This is a time referred to as the «partings of the ways,» when the church was emerging as a religion apart from Judaism. Although it has often been neglected in this study, of particular interest is the Apocalypse of...

'n Liedjie vir Anine

Zander Breedt is ’n gewilde musiekster. Maar roem het ’n wrang smaak – hy voel asof hy teen ’n muur vasbid; die antwoorde waarna hy soek, kry hy nie in sy Bybel nie. En die nuwe aangetroude familielid, Anine, maak dinge nie makliker nie. Dis duidelik dat Anine nie veel oog hare het vir popsangers nie. Tog is sy die een wat weer die majeurnote in sy binneste losmaak. Anine Vos is ’n joernalis. Haar redakteur gee haar opdrag om ’n diepte-artikel oor Zander te skryf. Sy worstel met haar eie...

(re)Aligning with God

Brian D. Russell

(re)Aligning with God

How do we communicate the message of the Scriptures in our twenty-first-century, post-Christian context? (re)Aligning with God: Reading Scripture for Church and World answers this question by presenting the Scriptures through the lens of mission and by teaching a method for reading Scripture with a missional hermeneutic. The biblical story seeks to convert us to its perspective and to transform its readers and hearers into God's missional community that exists to reflect and embody...

... und die Geist lachte

Allenthalben ist heute von Spiritualität die Rede. Und davon, wie wichtig es für Körper, Geist und Seele sei, sie zu leben. Aber oft handelt es sich dabei um eine Spiritualität ohne spiritus, ohne die ruach jachwä, also ohne die Geist Gottes. Menschen, auch Christen, suchen spirituelle Erfahrungen, indem sie Bäume umarmen, »Kraftorte« und indianische Schwitzhütten aufsuchen, Bücher über Engel lesen und an Übungen teilnehmen, durch welche wahrnehmbare Beziehungen zu solchen Engelwesen angeblich...

Derek Chinn

1 + 1 = 1

The population of the United States is changing. By 2042, U.S. census figures indicate that the majority racial population will no longer be white. In addition, churches are dying as congregants age and fail to add younger members to sustain their ministry. These shifting demographics represent a significant challenge and opportunity for the church. Derek Chinn proposes an overlooked solution: join congregations together to create a multiracial church. For this unique concept, Chinn offers a...

1 Corinthians

B. J. Oropeza

1 Corinthians

This compact commentary on 1 Corinthians is both readable and full of insights that will engage students, ministers, and scholars alike. The Apostle Paul writes to a relatively new church in which members are failing to maintain solidarity with other members. They struggle to find their unique place in Roman society as Gentile followers of Jewish leaders that proclaim Christ as Lord. Their many problems include competition over leadership and social prestige, sexual impropriety, household...

1 Corinthians 1–4

Oh-Young Kwon

1 Corinthians 1–4

This book investigates 1 Corinthians 1-4 from a rhetorical and social perspective and explores that a divisive culture of rhetorical and paternal elitism lies behind the schisms and problems identified in the letter. This culture appears to have been shaped to some extent by the legacy of Cicero. Paul's references to «boasting» and «imitation» indicate both his subversive use, and his critique, of this Greco-Roman wisdom. In the final chapter, this analysis of wisdom traditions and their...

1 Peter

This book is a different kind of commentary. Rather than being the work of one or two individual scholars, it is the result of the collaboration of twenty-one contributors, and others who assisted at all stages of production. The first letter of Peter itself appears to be the product of collaboration of early Christian leaders who sought to encourage those who were suffering for the name of Christ. Christians in today's world are faced with the same challenge, and we trust that this...

1 Timothy

1 Timothy

A thorough and insightful commentary on Paul's letter to his coworker Timothy, which the Apostle wrote before and during Nero's persecution. Spencer carefully examines each part of the letter and relates it to the overall flow of the argument and in light of the larger biblical, historical, social, and cultural contexts. How Paul's writing related to the ancient communities is highlighted in the light of original data gleaned from her explorations on location in Ephesus and...

1 Timothy, Volume 1

Paul S. Jeon

1 Timothy, Volume 1

1 Timothy is one of the more controversial documents in the New Testament. For years, critical scholars have rejected Pauline authorship, highlighted the apparent misogynistic quality of the text, and argued against any coherence in the letter. Jeon takes a fresh look at the letter, incorporating many recent advancements in NT scholarship. In detail he demonstrates the macro- and micro- chiastic arrangement of the entire letter and explains how the presumed first-century audience would have...
