Pauls Letter To The Romans
$48.99Continuing his series of highly regarded and innovative socio-rhetorical commentaries on the New Testament, Ben Witherington now tackles Romans, perhaps the most profound and difficult book of the New Testament.
Interacting with recent treatments of this Pauline letter and with ancient Christian commentators, Witherington shows that the interpretation of Romans since the Reformation has been far too indebted to Augustinian readings of the text as filtered through Luther, Calvin, and others. Instead, Witherington urges a reading of the text in light of early Jewish theology, the historical situation of Rome, and Paul’s own rhetorical concerns.
Offering a new translation of the Greek text and new insights into Paul and his world, this commentary sheds fresh light on the meaning of Romans for its original audience and for Christian readers today.

Fathering The Nations
$19.98Fathering the Nations reveals the character and integrity of Christ that are needed within the heart of God’s delegated representatives-apostles, prophets, evangelists, preachers, and teachers-so the body of Christ will be effectively trained, equipped, and released by God for works of service through spiritual fathers’ “fatherhood.” This book instills hope in the hearts of all levels of believers by dealing with the frustrations and misconceptions concerning leadership in the church as we’ve known it. Leaders were never given authority over the people of God but were given authority for God’s people. Fathering the Nations deals directly with leadership through biblical foundations, awakening and reestablishing God’s divine order for daily living and godly government for the eternal existence of the true Church of Christ Jesus “on earth as it is in heaven.”This book lays a solid foundation of Christ and His Kingdom “living within the hearts of all believers.”

And He will use Russia as His rod to chastise His people. This ruthless nation will come from afar, “from the ends of the earth” (Deuteronomy 31:29; 28:49.50).

Who Can Be Saved
$59.99IVP Print On Demand Title
The question of salvation in relation to the world religions has become especially poignant in recent years. For evangelical theology, this query becomes even more pressing in light of the millions throughout history who have never heard the gospel. This group includes: the unborn, those who never reach an age of accountability, those who never achieve the capacity to understand the gospel, those who lived before the time of Christ, and those who live after Christ’s resurrection who are not evangelized. Tiessen offers a constructive approach in his reassessment of salvation in Christ and the world religions in this engaging and accessible volume. Who Can Be Saved? is divided into two sections; the first explores the many possibilities of how and what type of people are saved, while the second views how the world religions relate to God’s purposes in the world. Tiessen provides an important contribution to a Christian theology of religions, which is evangelically grounded and missiologically informed.

Universal Salvation : The Current Debate
$33.99Foreword by Gabriel Fackre
Will God one day save all people through Christ’s atoning work? That is the question at the heart of the debate in this volume – a debate sure to challenge readers, whatever their current perspective.
Featuring evangelical writers of exceptional insight and sensitivity, Universal Salvation? offers a conversation worth everyone’s attention. The volume opens with a rigorous three-part defense of Christian universalism by philosopher Thomas Talbott, who argues that Scripture teaches the ultimate salvation of all people, including those in hell. Gabriel Fackre in his foreword calls Talbott’s work “the most thoughtfully wrought argument for universalism to date from within the contemporary evangelical community.” The rest of the book gathers incisive responses to Talbott by Christian scholars from different disciplines, who evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of Talbott’s arguments, take his thought in new directions, or explain why they think he is mistaken. Talbott then responds to his critics.
The aim of this volume is not to persuade people that universalism is true but to open up a fairer debate on a controversial subject of continuing importance to theologians and nontheologians alike. By exploring universal salvation from biblical, philosophical, theological, and historical perspectives, the book helps readers think through the issues more carefully than has been possible with resources previously available.

Educating For Shalom
$30.99In addition to his notable work as a premier Christian philosopher, Nicholas Wolterstorff has become a leading voice on faith-based higher education. This volume gathers the best of Wolterstorff’s essays from the past twenty-five years dealing collectively with the purpose of Christian higher education and the nature of academic learning.
Integrated throughout by the biblical idea of shalom, these nineteen essays present a robust framework for thinking about education that combines a Reformed confessional perspective with a radical social conscience and an increasingly progressivist pedagogy. Wolterstorff develops his ideas in relation to an astonishing variety of thinkers ranging from Calvin, Kuyper, and Jellema to Augustine, Aquinas, and Kant to Weber, Habermas, and MacIntyre. In the process, he critiques various models of education, classic foundationalism, modernization theory, liberal arts, and academic freedom.

Wonderful Words Of Life
$31.99Although the use of hymns in many evangelical congregations seems to be declining, Richard Mouw (in the introduction) predicts a resurgence of hymnody in the future. Other notable contributors examining the various historical and theological dimensions of hymns in American Protestantism include Mark Noll, Susan Wise Bauer, Kevin Kee, and Jeffrey VanderWilt. The essays probe the influence of Isaac Watts, the practical implications of hymns for living the Christian life, and the character of hymns as bearers of good (or bad) theology. Wonderful Words of Life provides an engaging treatment of an often neglected field of study, which bridges the gap between Christian belief and practice.

Reading The Gospels Today
$28.99As ancient documents, the New Testament Gospels can seem distant from contemporary life or irrelevant to modern society. Further complicating the task of reading the Gospels is the way they seem to introduce differing, if not competing, pictures of Jesus. This book is meant to help Bible readers understand–and move beyond–the difficulties involved in interpreting Scripture in our current context.
In these insightful studies several biblical scholars explore the content of the Gospels while also discussing how to read these writings in relation to each other and in terms of today’s world. Some chapters consider issues that vex Gospel criticism, others look at particular texts or Synoptic themes: still others demonstrate how one’s immediate interpretive context helps to raise the issues and shape the answers that are found when we read the Gospels. Well organized, thoughtfully written, and widely accessible, this volume will serve to draw readers into the exciting field of contemporary Gospels study.

High Calling : The Courageous Life And Faith Of Space Shuttle Columbia Comm
$19.99Rick Husband wanted to be an astronaut since his fourth birthday, but it wasn’t always for the right reasons. Initially, he thought it would be neat . . . cool . . . a fun thing to do. It wasn’t until he came to a spiritual crossroads and was able to give that dream up to discover the true desires of his heart before he actually got into the space shuttle program at NASA. Three failed attempts didn’t daunt this driven pilot-and the fourth interview process, though lengthy and difficult, proved successful for him. Husband’s years at NASA served not only to develop his integrity and character, but also to increase his faith in a Creator that could not be denied in the vastness of space. His story is not only inspirational but exhilarating and invigorating, as readers will witness the life of a man who consistently pursued the desires of his heart even as he served a faithful God.

Murder Of Jesus
$15.99The pieces are in place. The curtain rises for the final act. God is about to die. To many, the story of Christ’s crucifixion has become so familiar that it has lost its ability to shock, outrage, or stir any great emotion. In The Murder of Jesus, John MacArthur presents this pivotal moment in the life of Jesus in a way that forces readers to witness this event in all its power. The passion of Christ is examined chronologically through the lens of the New Testament with special attention given to Jesus’ words on the cross, the miracle that attended the crucifixion, and the significance of Christ’s atoning work. In doing so, MacArthur relives the most awesome injustice in the history of man and the unparalleled triumph of the sovereignty of God.

Eastertide : Prayers For Lent Through Easter From The Divine Hours
$22.00“A wise rabbi once told me that it is not how many prayers we don’t say that matters to God, but rather how many we do. That is important to all of us, but especially for beginners. If this is your first attempt to return to this most ancient of Christian practices, it is wise to remember that you are entering into a discipline and, like all disciplines, this one sits hard and heavy upon one at times. There are hours you will miss and/or some that you can’t even begin to figure out how to observe. That is all right, for either the joy will carry you into greater joy and transmute the discipline into privilege, or you will find yourself simply the wiser and the richer for such experience as you have had. As the rabbi said, that is what matters ultimately.”
In her acclaimed trilogy, The Divine Hours, Phyllis Tickle introduced modern Christians to the time-honored practice of “praying the hours.” In this exquisite new volume, she provides a vibrant program of prayer dedicated to the anticipation of Christ’s resurrection.
Beginning with Ash Wednesday and moving through Lent and on to Easter Sunday, Eastertide provides the daily prayers that bring practitioners into the full spirit of this season. Each day is filled with psalms, readings from the Bible, and hymns of praise and worship, just as they appear in the larger volume, The Divine Hours: Prayers for Springtime. Newcomers to this beloved tradition will find that Eastertide is the perfect introduction to joining the ancients in the tradition of fixed-hour prayer.

Devotion
$10.99Sure, we all know what discipleship is. Take the disciples, the Big Twelve. Super-religious guys who hung out with Jesus, carried his bags, handed out baguettes and smoked herring to the hungry followers and listeners (“Where did he get this much food, anyway. My arms are killin’ me.”), did their best to be bodyguards for Jesus (well, except at the end), were the most intimate friends Jesus had as well as the Inner Circle of his teaching (“Nice story, Jesus,but what are you getting at?”). Okay, so when you read the Gospels (or Acts) at face value, the disciples (or apostles) weren’t always on top of things the way Jesus would’ve liked. Okay, let’s be plain: for being Christ’s closest friends and intimate confidants, the disciples were clueless, selfish, erratic, inconsistent, and faithless at least half the time. And Jesus just loved them and used them all the more for it. Author Mike Yaconelli scrubs away centuries of sentimental buildup that has made first-century disciples–well, hard for a turn-of-the-century teenager to emulate. In Devotion: A Raw-Truth Journal on Following Jesus there’s hope for erratic, inconsistent, and sometimes-faithless adolescents who want to follow Christ closer than they do. Here’s a 30-day adventure through 30 traits of disciples as we read about them in the New Testament. And they’re not all pretty. But they’re all the marks of a disciple. Fear. Boldness. Fearlessness. Laziness. Weakness. Sensitivity. Brokenness. Alienation. Hunger. Immaturity. Strength. Preparedness. In each daily reading kids will find: * A discipleship event from Scripture * A brief but pointed paragraph describing that day’s disciple’s trait * A teenager’s first-person commentary on the trait * “The Obvious Truth” and “Obvious Lesson” from the Scripture passage and commentary–and then the “Not So Obvious Truth” and “Not So Obvious Lesson.” * Scripture references for extra reading on the trait * Questions that invite kids to ponder the application of the reading to their own experiences and desires. Devotion: A Raw-Truth Journal on Following Jesus is appropriate for small group reflection and discussion as well as for private use.

Lifetime Of Church
$38.73A Lifetime of Church chronicles the author’s deep involvement in two very different churches. The church of his youth was maintained by a strict social order and a set of predominant customs and traditions. From his earliest memories the author recounts what it was like to grow up in this conservative context, while it brought misery to his mother and was the life passion of her father. A series of extraordinary events culminated in the author becoming a lay minister in this church as a young adult. At the same time, a personal Bible study brought about a new set of beliefs. Following a long and agonizing spiritual struggle, the author helped found an independent community Bible church. For thirteen years the author served this church as the senior pastor, reared his family, operated a community pharmacy, and learned a lot about faith and life.

Besides examining Dickinson’s singular life and work in greater depth, Lundin has also keyed all poem citations to the recently updated standard edition of Dickinson’s poetry. Already outstanding, Lundin’s biography of Emily Dickinson is now even better than before.

Little Lamb Who Made Thee
$18.99The stories, essays, prayers, and poems in Little Lamb, Who Made Thee? continue the themes that the author began in Ragman and Other Cries of Faith and Miz Lil and the Chronicles of Grace. This volume portrays children, teenagers, adults, and parents as they grapple with the deep realities of life. At the heart of this struggle are the vital relationships we have with families, for it is from our parents_and from our children_that we most profoundly learn about ourselves as children of God. In the first section, Wangerin reminisces about his own childhood, and with the eyes of a child he helps us see the wonder and fullness of life. In the second section, he writes obout what it is like to be a pastor to parents and children alike, and as a young parent to his own children. Sage advice and joyful humor are couched in vivid stories_warm and intimate, raucous and chilling_that are Wangerin’s trademark. Finally, the book concludes with touching stories of adult children of aging parents_that sometimes sad, sometimes joyous time when children must become parents to their own parents. Far from being a how-to book or a manual, Little Lamb gets inside its subject to view parenthood and childhood as the great miracle and mystery that it is. This new, updated edition contains twelve all-new, never-before-published stories, making it the definitive edition of Little Lamb, Who Made Thee?
