The Jewish Jesus

Zev Garber

The Jewish Jesus

There is a general understanding within religious and academic circles that the incarnate Christ of Christian belief lived and died a faithful Jew. This volume addresses Jesus in the context of Judaism. By emphasizing his Jewishness, the authors challenge today’s Jews to reclaim the Nazarene as a proto-rebel rabbi and invite Christians to discover or rediscover the Church’s Jewish heritage. The essays in this volume cover historical, literary, liturgical, philosophical, religious, theological,...

Why Salvation?

Joel B. Green

Why Salvation?

Salvation is the bedrock of our faith and the touchstone for faithful living. It is the good news of God drawing near to us as individuals but also as communities of faith. This book helps us understand that when we say «Jesus saves,» we stand on scripture that proclaims a God who, through Jesus, heals, liberates, and rescues. Like each generation that has gone before, we too must find our own awareness and then respond and...

The Beasts, the Graves, and the Ghosts

At the heart of the gospel is the message of the incarnation: God translating himself into the context of human culture and language so we might know him. Far from coming to an end with Christ’s life on earth, this process of contextualization is ongoing, reoccurring every time the gospel encounters the particularities of society and culture. In this book, Hann Tzuu Tan explores the signi ficance of contextualized preaching within the Chinese context. Against the backdrop of three major...

Dignity

Beth-Sarah Wright

Dignity

DIGNITY is a transformative set of ideas to help individuals and communities identify and address barriers to authenticity.

Nie van hoorsê nie, Here

Frits Gaum

Nie van hoorsê nie, Here

Waar die dood gewoontlik vir ons iets is wat ons ten alle koste probeer vermy, word dit vir die skrywer ’n baie groot werklikheid wanneer hy deur sy dokter meegedeel word dat hy ’n siekte het wat sy lewe kan kos. Skielik word al die klein dingetjies wat jy jou altyd oor bekommer baie klein. En met dit kom ’n hele lot vrae en vertwyfelinge. Waarom word ons siek? Is dit omdat ons sondaars is en God ons so wil straf? Is dit miskien makliker vir ’n gelowige as vir ’n ongelowige om met die dood...

Die Kerk

Mark Dever

Die Kerk

Daar heers vandag groeiende verskille in kerke se verkondiging van wat kerklewe behoort te wees, die grondbeginsels van die Christelike geloof en die wyses waarop God aanbid moet word. Te midde van verdere antagonisme jeens die kerk, mag die gelowige miskien begin wonder wat die kerk se rol nou eintlik is? Hoe leef ons in ’n gemeenskap van gelowiges waar die Woord van God sigbaar in ons lewens is? Volgens Mark Dever behoort ons ons tot die Woord van God te beroep om ons te lei in hierdie vrae....

How (not) to Speak of God sets out to explore the theory and praxis of this contemporary expression of faith. Rollins offers a clear exploration of this embryonic movement...

Teach of the Twelve

Teach of the Twelve

How did the first Christians practice their faith? The Didache, an early handbook of an anonymous Christian community, «is the most important book you've never heard of.» It spells out a way of life for Jesus-followers, including how to love one another, how to practice the Eucharist, and how to take in wandering prophets. Likely written before many of the New Testament books, this little-known text can enlighten the way that Christians are church, today. Tony Jones unpacks the ancient...

He Ascended into Heaven

Tim Perry

He Ascended into Heaven

Why do you stand looking up toward heaven? That's what the angels said to the baffled disciples who had just experienced the Ascension of Jesus Christ. Peter, James, John, and the others stood there, squinty into the sky, trying to make sense of it all. Tim and Aaron Perry confess to being baffled, too. For centuries, Christians have confessed «He ascended into heaven» in their creeds – but what do these words actually mean? The Perrys offer a probing look at this unfamiliar doctrine,...

Fidelity of Betrayal

Peter Rollins

Fidelity of Betrayal

"About 30 years ago, I came across the evocative phrase 'religionless Christianity' in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's later writings, and it has stayed with me ever since. In his new book The Fidelity of Betrayal, Peter Rollins has teased out – as Bonhoeffer never had the chance to do – profound possibilities hidden in the phrase. As a huge fan of Peter's first book, I find his second no less thoughtful, stimulating, and at times unsettling – always in a most (de)constructive...
