Taking Leave Of God
$35.99This was the book which first garnered international celebrity and notoriety for its author and which fire-started a debate about the supernatural claims of Christianity. Rejecting Christian doctrines and metaphysics in favour of the religious consciousness which characterises human identity, Cupitt ‘takes leave’ of God by abandoning objective theism. Because he remained an ordained priest of the Church of England, the author attracted considerable attention and criticism for his position. Indeed, Keith Ward, now Oxford’s Regius Professor of Divinity, wrote an entire book – Holding Fast to God – which attempted to counter Cupitt’s views. Whatever one thinks of the author’s beliefs, Taking Leave of God contributed to one of the most important theological discussions of its time.

10 Commandments : They Still Work
$14.99The secular pundits and pollsters, along with some from the religious community, are trying to convince America that the Ten Commandments were designed for an ancient world. They say these laws are no longer relevant, that the advanced thinking of the modern world can do better. So the Ten Commandments are being removed from public places, and are no longer taught to our children in public schools. Dr. Martin Case believes that, contrary to popular belief, the Ten Commandments were not given only for the ancient world, but for the world today. The truth about the Ten Commandments is that they are a gift from a loving God. Dr. Case shows God’s original purpose and intent of His laws, and how they can be applied to our culture today. We do not need new laws; we need to rediscover and obey the original ten laws God gave us centuries ago. Why? Because they still work!

The New Testament finds many ways to depict Christians’ relationships to their Lord. They are his disciples, sons, daughters, and friends. But it is perhaps too little recognized that they are also his slaves. This study sets out to uncover what it means to be a slave of Christ. Murray Harris begins by assessing the nature of actual slavery in the Greco-Roman world and the New Testament’s attitude towards it. Drawing insights from this, he goes on to unfold the metaphor of slavery to Christ. Among the topics discussed are slavery and spiritual freedom, lordship, ownership, and privilege. Slave of Christ is a model of good biblical theology, providing insights both for further study of the Bible and for practical application. It will be appreciated in both church and academy.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Stones For Bread
$36.00With a proactive and engaging style, Daniel Frankforter explores the consequences of the tendency by many Protestant congregations to adopt new, ” contemporary” styles of worship. With membership and attendance declining, many churches are revamping their worship services to attract or keep participants, but too often the adaptation becomes nothing more than a Spirit-less reflection of popular culture. Stones for Bread presents some of the different programs for “marketing” worship, clarifies the implications for the integrity of a church’s mission and spiritual life, and proposes some alternative means for rejuvenating worship.

At the heart of the Christian faith stands a man, Jesus of Nazaereth. Few people seriously question whether he existed in history. But many, influenced by the more sceptical scholars, doubt that the Christ of orthodox christianity is the same as the Jesus of history. In this important book, historian Paul Barnett lays the doubts to rest. He uncovers the methodological weakness present in some forms of critical scholarship, demonstrating a failure to account for important early evidence about Jesus. Once the evidence is properly marshalled, a picture of Jesus emerges that fits well with orthodox belief in him.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Peace
$27.99First appearing during the peace-loving 1970s, this book now receives a welcome reintroduction as part of Chalice Press’s Understanding Biblical Themes series. Brueggemann, professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary, looks at the protean concept of “shalom” and its relation to concerns today for peace and justice. The task is daunting, but Brueggemann tackles it with his characteristic penchant for conceptual clarity. He outlines a broad biblical vision for shalom (“one community embracing all creation… including all those resources and factors which make communal harmony joyous and effective”) and identifies some of its comprising factors (freedom, unity, order, justice, etc.). The second half of the book begins to work out what it means for the church and its people to be a community of shalom. One of the best sections is the new introduction, which is Brueggemann’s own insightful critique of the book (and the era in which it was written). Brueggemann seems just as at home with the New Testament as the Old, and like many seminary educators, his style slides between the pedagogical and the sermonic. Once in a while there’s a clunky cluster of theological terms, but just as often a memorable and poetic turn of phrase. This is another fine example of what Brueggemann does best: squeezing the Bible to produce hard-working theology for the church.

What does it mean to teach English in the name of Christ? With thousands of Christians teaching English as a second or foreign language in hundreds of locations around the world, this has become as urgent question.Some Christian English teachers may consider their teaching simply as a means of service (combined with a bit of adventure). Others may see it only as a mean of getting a visa into a closed country for purposes of evangelism. Don Snow’s well-thought out details of how to bear witness, engage in ministry, serve the poor, contribute to peace, and build bridges of understanding between churches clearly show the special role in Christian missions that Christian English teachers have.

4 Witnesses
$17.9912 Chapters
Additional Info
Bringing the stories of Jesus to life for the contemporary reader, Robin Griffith-Jones revives the original power and the intent of each of the four gospels. He presents a lively discussion of how and why each gospel was written, considering the substance and style of the testimony itself as well as the unique context of each story. Mark’s gospel tells the rebel’s story of Jesus as a failed revolutionary whose mission mysteriously succeeds. For Luke, Jesus is a heroic, compassionate social revolutionary who confidently and mercifully dies on behalf of all humanity. John’s gospel is a mystic’s interpretation of the divinity of Jesus told in powerful poetic language.“Who do you say I am?” Each gospel offers its own answer to Jesus’ question, influenced by the context of its writing and the personality of its writer. All four gospels taken together provide what one alone could not: a remarkably full and compelling presentation of Jesus and his message.

Beyond The Worship Wars
$28.00Almost every congregation is experiencing tension over worship. Many congregations have been participating in a renaissance of worship known as the “liturgical movement” and have reclaimed worship forms that have served the church for centuries. Yet because the church today is operating in a radically changed cultural environment, many people in our society do not understand liturgical worship and thus we must find language, music, themes, and images that speak to the unchurched, spiritually seeking person.
In Beyond the Worship Wars, Thomas G. Long discusses the nine characteristics of vital and faithful worship practiced by a wide range of “third-way” congregations-all characteristics that make for vital and faithful worship.

Reformed Worship
$30.0014 Chapters
Additional Info
Pastors, seminarians, and worship leaders often find themselves in a quandary when it comes to worship planning. At one end of the spectrum are congregations that worship in ways that may be amusing, interesting, and entertaining but lack a sense of tradition. At the other end are congregations that go through the motions of repeating inherited patterns of worship, even when those patterns have lost their meaning or are boring or trivial. Finding ways to weave together the tradition inherited from the past and the culture of a particular community can be a difficult task. But the Reformed tradition has, from its beginning, tried to take both tradition and local culture equally seriously.Here, is discussions on the history of Christian worship; baptism; the Lord’s Supper; the Service for the Lord’s Day; music; prayer; the setting for worship; the church year; weddings, funerals, and other special occasions for worship; and worship style, Howard Rice and James Huffstrutler do what no other book does-they explain the Reformed liturgical tradition and give applications to actual settings of worship in congregational life.

Ecclesiastes : Ancient Wisdom When All Else Fails
$18.99IVP Print On Demand Title
Recipient of a 2002 Christianity Today Award of Merit! “Meaningless!” says Ecclesiastes. “All is meaningless!” We live. We work. We die. Even with our best efforts to find lasting enjoyment and significance, we are faced with the conclusion that there is nothing new under the sun. Despite this gloomy assessment (or perhaps because of it), people have been drawn to the Middle Eastern wisdom of this enigmatic book for thousands of years.
