IndexAdditional Info
In this masterful historical survey, theologian John Macquarrie demonstrates how Christians, especially the great mystics, have experienced at their own “radiant core” the love and presence of God.The word mysticism evokes ecstatic visions, asceticism, and esoteric teaching. Yet, the author maintains, mystics are better thought of as people who exhibit common human curiosity, long to explore religious mystery, and ultimately find a deep personal relationship with God.
Macquarrie discusses in detail the ten common traits of mysticism before tracing two millennia of Christian mysticism. He mainly allows the mystics to speak for themselves, but he is also particularly insightful about the greatest individuals of the tradition – from Paul to the patristic Platonists to the classic medieval mystics to a host of twentieth-century exemplars.

Presumed Guilty : How The Jews Were Blamed For The Death Of Jesus
$17.00A premier New Testament scholar explores how Jesus’ trial and execution are portrayed in the New Testament and how that portrayal has affected biblical studies, Christian theology, and Jewish-Christian relations through history. Tomson has written an accessible, responsible analysis of the biblical accounts of Jesus’ death, demonstrating how, through compounded misunderstandings, they contributed to anti-Jewish sentiment in the early church and later history. Tomson’s question of how Jesus is to be understood in his first-century Judean context is a critical one not only for biblical scholars, but for anyone concerned about human rights and interreligious dialogue today.

Liberating Paul : The Justice Of God And The Politics Of The Apostle
$34.00For centuries the apostle Paul has been invoked to justify oppression – whether on behalf of slavery, to enforce unquestioned obedience to the state, to silence women, or to legitimate anti-Semitism. To interpret Paul is thus to set foot on a terrible battleground between spiritual forces. But as Neil Elliott argues, the struggle to liberate human beings from the power of Death requires “Liberating Paul” from his enthrallment to that power. In this book, Elliott shows that what many people experience as the scandal of Paul is the unfortunate consequence of the way Paul has usually been read, or rather misread, in the churches.
In the first half of the book, Elliott examines the many texts historically interpreted to support oppression or maintain the status quo. He shows how often Paul’s authentic message has been interpreted in the light of later pseudo-Pauline writings.
In Part Two, Elliott applies a “political key” to the interpretation of Paul. Though subsequent centuries have turned the cross into a symbol of Christian piety, Elliott forcefully reminds us that in Paul’s time this was the Roman mode of executing rebellious slaves, a fact that has profound political implications.
Under Elliott’s examination, a startlingly new image of Paul begins to emerge, liberated from layers of false interpretation, and free to speak a liberating and challenging word to our world today.

Disappointed By God
$15.49Where is God when it hurts? Is He unfair? Is He silent? Does He get so caught up by the hunger of Africa that He forgets the pain and suffering of America, Britain, and the world as a whole? In this book, Dr. Uebert Snr flows with biblical assurances, clarity, and revelation on the problem of pain and suffering. This timely book not only unmasks the enigma of suffering but also discards logic by replacing it with inspiration. It is undoubtedly a book that decodes the problem of pain and extends to the “how” of getting a breakthrough in the midst of suffering. Dr. Uebert Snr asks and answers questions not many dare to ask. This is a must read for every suffering person and for all Christians with a desire to get out of or distance themselves from the problem of pain.

Gospel Driven Church
$29.99Charismatic renewal has at the core of its ideology an aspiration for revival. This is a laudable aspiration, but in recent years, in the absence of a largescale evangelistic impact, it has encouraged a faddist mentality among church leaders.
The Gospel-Driven Church documents this development and the numerous theological and pastoral distortions that take place when genuine revival fervor transmutes into revivalism. Moreover, Stackhouse aims to show how a retrieval of some of the core practices of the church, such as preaching, sacraments, the laying on of hands, and prayer is essential at this crucial stage in the trajectory of the renewal movement in the United Kingdom. He commends to church leaders a recovery of these means of grace – including Spirit baptism – as a way of keeping the church centered on the gospel rather than mere pragmatic concerns about size and numbers.

10 Gospel Promises For Later Life (Large Type)
$13.99“May you live to be 120!” This old Jewish birthday blessing leads to a question Jane Marie Thibault regularly asks attendees at her workshops and retreats: Would you accept the gift of 120 years with joy and gratefulness, or would your response depend on your circumstances?
As Thibault is now an older adult herself and has been working with older adults as a clinical gerontologist for nearly 30 years, she has been confronted by the challenge many older adults face in relating to the message of the Gospel in this later season of life.
The material for 10 Gospel Promises for Later Life emerged as Thibault began to explore questions spawned by this blessing and compiled a list of ten challenges aging presents and the fears that accompany these challenges: fear of being left alone at the end of life, fear of not being good enough to go to heaven, fear of being a burden to others, fear that there’s nothing to live for now that the best years are over, difficulty believing in an afterlife, regretting missed opportunities to use talents, fear that it’s too late to fix relationships, feeling unneeded, wishing life had been different, and fear of extended suffering.
Thibault then took these fears to the Gospel in a spirit of prayer and meditation. As she read she asked whether the Gospel speaks to the fears of aging, whether there is any good news in the “Good News” for older adults, and whether aging as a Christian is different from aging in secular society. The message she found is that Jesus offers the promise of abundant life to the older adult. Some of the Gospel promises that emerged were:
*We are the beloved children of God the good parent.
*We have a mission and purpose that is lifelong.
*As spiritual siblings, we are interdependent upon each other for mutual care and assistance.
*Powerlessness is powerful.
*All that is, is gift, and God will continue to provide for us.
*Forgiveness is offered to us, but it must be shared.
*Suffering can have meaning for ourselves and others.
*Renewal is necessary for life; it is never too late to grow in wisdom and grace.
*Death is not the end of life.
*We will never be left alone; Christ is with us always.In each chapter Thibault addresses a particular fear, giving an example of how it has affected the daily life of a person in a negative way. She then presents a response, a promise of the Gospel. After examining the promise and discussing how it provides a message of hope in later life, she p

Living Between The Advents
$12.95As we prepare each year to celebrate the Incarnation, the Advent season reminds us that we live in an interim period between the First and Second Comings of Jesus Christ. In this book of twelve riveting sermons on a variety of Advent themes (all based on texts from Cycle B of the Revised Common Lectionary), Michael Ruffin explores the challenges of Christian living in this time between the First and Second Advents — particularly the tension between the modes of patience and action. Though we await Jesus’ return with hopeful anticipation, Advent waiting is active waiting. Ruffin’s messages invite readers to share in the richly rewarding life of faith, while providing abundant comfort and inspiration for those who endeavor to live as disciples of Jesus in the modern world.
Preachers looking for an imaginative illustration or observation to stimulate their sermons will find ample material in this book. But this is much more than just a reference for ministers preparing to preach during Advent — it’s also an excellent resource for spiritual reflections reminding us that the good news in these days between the Advents is that Jesus Christ is Immanuel, God with us.

Partners In Healing
$12.95Healing is a gift and not a right. The prayer of faith is powerful, but the most faithful prayer of power was that of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, on the eve of his great ordeal: “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me; yet, not my will but yours be done” (Luke 22:42). Anointing cannot guarantee healing. If it could it would border on magic, and would imply that we in some way control God’s actions. God is in control of history and healing. It is God who invites us to join into a community of prayer through the ordinance of anointing.
(excerpt from Partners In Healing)Though there are countless instances of anointing in the Bible, it is seldom practiced in many Christian traditions today. But this essential rite reminds us that God is the true source of restoration and healing — and that he is at work in all aspects of our lives. Anointing affirms and symbolizes our partnership with God, and it invites God to be part of the healing process for anyone who is sick physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
Partners In Healing is a complete guide with all the resources you need to revive this ancient practice as part of a comprehensive ministry of healing. In addition to exploring the biblical and historical background for anointing, you’ll find a wealth of practical, easy-to-use material. There’s an extensive range of services and prayers, as well as sermons you can use to introduce this ministry to congregations unfamiliar with it. Discussion questions and activities are also included, making this an excellent resource for small group study.

Planting Seeds
$12.95Seeing our thoughts and feelings acted out onstage can be a very powerful experience. Because we readily identify with the characters we watch — their hopes and dreams as well as their frustrations and failures — dramatic presentations hold up a mirror that lets us see things about ourselves we often overlook.
With this compelling anthology of 24 sketches, you can open the eyes of worshipers to God’s truth and grace while planting dynamic seeds of change.

Lectionary Tales For The Pulpit Series 4 Cycle B
$15.95Jesus was a master storyteller, and his preaching was filled with parables because he knew his listeners would relate to them — and therefore connect with his message. Likewise, insightful and well-told stories are an essential element of the contemporary preacher’s toolbox; they are invariably what people remember long after the sermon is over. If you’re looking for a collection of fresh, imaginative, and inspirational stories that’s sure to help you create dynamic sermons, Lectionary Tales For The Pulpit is just the resource for you. Gregory Tolle sheds new light on Cycle B lectionary texts with modern parables that take you right to the heart of the scriptural witness. His thought-provoking reflections remind us that God’s grace is always present, especially in places and events we least expect to find it. Lectionary Tales For The Pulpit is a wonderful source for memorable preaching illustrations and “”sermon starters”” — and it’s also uplifting devotional reading that powerfully demonstrates how the Lord works in our daily lives.

Big 10 : Another Look At The 10 Commandments
$16.95The Ten Commandments are universally acknowledged as God’s blueprint for human behavior – yet they seem to be a major focus of controversy in today’s headlines. Should these commands from God be prominently featured in classrooms and courtrooms? What difference do God’s laws make for multitudes of people who can’t even repeat them from memory, much less integrate them into everyday behavior?
In the latest installment of his popular series examining the basics of the Christian faith, Ron Lavin takes another look at the Ten Commandments and suggests they offer a powerful biblical corrective for a society filled with ethical relativism and moral decay. But they are much more than just a list of do’s and don’ts – they are also the foundation for God’s invitation to a full and abundant life.
The Big Ten is an ideal group study resource – each chapter includes a “digging deeper” section plus stimulating discussion questions, and there are tips to assist small group leaders. The Big Ten is also great for new members, adult Sunday school, and confirmation classes, as well as for personal meditation or sermon preparation.
Other titles in the Another Look series:
? I Believe; Help My Unbelief (on the Apostles’ Creed)
? Stories To Remember (on the Parables of Jesus)
? Abba (on the Lord’s Prayer)
? Saving Grace (on the Word and Sacraments)
