The Lost World of Adam and Eve
Genesis 2ndash3 and the Human Origins Debate
rdquoScholarly and readable the text seen through Near
Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into
the question of human originsrdquo
Denis Alexander author Creation or Evolution
Do We Have to Choose
For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly
through the corridors of art literature and theology But for
many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously
the authority of Scripture insisting on a ldquo literalrdquo under-standing of Genesis 2ndash3 looks painfully like a ldquotear hererdquo
strip between faith and science
How can Christians of good faith move forward Who were
the historical Adam and Eve In what cultural code was this
couple this garden this serpent portrayed With twenty-one
propositions John Walton now backlights this most elemental
story with the ancient world of the biblical author giving us the
context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward
Additionally an illuminating excursus by N T Wright places
Adam in the implied narrative of Paulrsquos theology
John H Walton (PhD Hebrew Union College) is
professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Grad-
uate School His books include The Lost World of Scripture The
Lost World of Genesis One Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the
Old Testament The NIV Application Commentary Genesis and
The IVP Bible Background Commentary Old Testament
Selected Propositions from Contents ldquoForming

and Not Claims of Material Origins bull Forming of Humans in
Ancient Near Eastern Accounts Is Archetypal So It Would
Not Be Unusual for Israelites to Think in Those Terms bull
The New Testament Is More Interested in Adam and Eve as
Archetypes Than as Biological Progenitors bull Though Some
of the Biblical Interest in Adam and Eve Is Archetypal Yet
They Are Real People Who Existed in a Real Past bull Adam
Is Assigned as Priest in Sacred Space with Eve to Help bull
The Garden Is an Ancient Near Eastern Motif for Sacred
Space and the Trees Indicate God as the Source of Life
and Wisdom bull Paulrsquos Use of Adam Is More Interested in the
Effect of Sin on the Cosmos Than in the Effect of Sin onHumanity and Has Nothing to Say About Human Origins
bull Excursus on Paulrsquos Use of Adam by N T Wright bull It Is Not

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and
Tullus his scribe and slave From a battle with the Parthians
through a tragic personal crisis to the gladiator arena at
Caesarea Maritima their tale finally leads to the backwater
vil lage of Capernaum on the shores of Gali lee There in
a culture not their own and during a week they will never
forget they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth
In entertaining historical fiction this fast-paced account
gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels
Splashed with informative sidebars and images we capture a
view of Jesusrsquo world from the outer framework looking in

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it
John Goldingay (PhD University of Nottingham DD
Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith
Brian K Morley (PhD Claremont University) is professor
of philosophy and apologetics at the Masterrsquos College inSanta Clarita California He is the author of God in the
Shadows Evil in Godrsquos World and has been a member of the

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

original voices ever to speak into the conversation

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Genesis 2ndash3 and the Human Origins Debate
rdquoScholarly and readable the text seen through Near
Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into
the question of human originsrdquo
Denis Alexander author Creation or Evolution
Do We Have to Choose
For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly
through the corridors of art literature and theology But for
many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously
the authority of Scripture insisting on a ldquo literalrdquo under-standing of Genesis 2ndash3 looks painfully like a ldquotear hererdquo
strip between faith and science
How can Christians of good faith move forward Who were
the historical Adam and Eve In what cultural code was this
couple this garden this serpent portrayed With twenty-one
propositions John Walton now backlights this most elemental
story with the ancient world of the biblical author giving us the
context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward
Additionally an illuminating excursus by N T Wright places
Adam in the implied narrative of Paulrsquos theology
John H Walton (PhD Hebrew Union College) is
professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Grad-
uate School His books include The Lost World of Scripture The
Lost World of Genesis One Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the
Old Testament The NIV Application Commentary Genesis and
The IVP Bible Background Commentary Old Testament
Selected Propositions from Contents ldquoForming

Is Assigned as Priest in Sacred Space with Eve to Help bull
The Garden Is an Ancient Near Eastern Motif for Sacred

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and
Tullus his scribe and slave From a battle with the Parthians
through a tragic personal crisis to the gladiator arena at
Caesarea Maritima their tale finally leads to the backwater
vil lage of Capernaum on the shores of Gali lee There in
a culture not their own and during a week they will never
forget they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth
In entertaining historical fiction this fast-paced account
gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels
Splashed with informative sidebars and images we capture a
view of Jesusrsquo world from the outer framework looking in

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it
John Goldingay (PhD University of Nottingham DD

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Genesis 2ndash3 and the Human Origins Debate
rdquoScholarly and readable the text seen through Near
Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into

Denis Alexander author Creation or Evolution
Do We Have to Choose
For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly
through the corridors of art literature and theology But for
many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously
the authority of Scripture insisting on a ldquo literalrdquo under-standing of Genesis 2ndash3 looks painfully like a ldquotear hererdquo
strip between faith and science
How can Christians of good faith move forward Who were
the historical Adam and Eve In what cultural code was this
couple this garden this serpent portrayed With twenty-one
propositions John Walton now backlights this most elemental
story with the ancient world of the biblical author giving us the
context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward
Additionally an illuminating excursus by N T Wright places
Adam in the implied narrative of Paulrsquos theology
John H Walton (PhD Hebrew Union College) is
professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Grad-
uate School His books include The Lost World of Scripture The
Lost World of Genesis One Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the

The Garden Is an Ancient Near Eastern Motif for Sacred

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and
Tullus his scribe and slave From a battle with the Parthians
through a tragic personal crisis to the gladiator arena at
Caesarea Maritima their tale finally leads to the backwater
vil lage of Capernaum on the shores of Gali lee There in
a culture not their own and during a week they will never
forget they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth
In entertaining historical fiction this fast-paced account
gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels
Splashed with informative sidebars and images we capture a
view of Jesusrsquo world from the outer framework looking in

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it
John Goldingay (PhD University of Nottingham DD
Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the

many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton

elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Denis Alexander author Creation or Evolution
Do We Have to Choose
For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly
through the corridors of art literature and theology But for
many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously
the authority of Scripture insisting on a ldquo literalrdquo under-standing of Genesis 2ndash3 looks painfully like a ldquotear hererdquo
strip between faith and science
How can Christians of good faith move forward Who were
the historical Adam and Eve In what cultural code was this
couple this garden this serpent portrayed With twenty-one
propositions John Walton now backlights this most elemental
story with the ancient world of the biblical author giving us the
context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward
Additionally an illuminating excursus by N T Wright places
Adam in the implied narrative of Paulrsquos theology
John H Walton (PhD Hebrew Union College) is
professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Grad-

Lost World of Genesis One Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and
Tullus his scribe and slave From a battle with the Parthians
through a tragic personal crisis to the gladiator arena at
Caesarea Maritima their tale finally leads to the backwater
vil lage of Capernaum on the shores of Gali lee There in
a culture not their own and during a week they will never
forget they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth
In entertaining historical fiction this fast-paced account
gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels
Splashed with informative sidebars and images we capture a
view of Jesusrsquo world from the outer framework looking in

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission

Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years

Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton

and from the scholarly world and out of them has
formulated a coherent and intelligible account of the

Edd Noell professor of economics and business

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting

racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation

of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world

Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in

rdquoKeying the book to the leading textbooks John
Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for

Kenneth G Elzinga professor of economics
University of Virginia
rdquoThe book takes seriously the authority of Scripture
in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of
economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal-
lenging mannerrdquo
Edd Noell professor of economics and business
Westmont College
Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

nity Church which under his leadership has grown from

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion
ldquoFully true to the historical-cultural setting of theearly first-century Roman empire this story not only
makes the New Testament world come alive but it
creates one very plausible scenario of the career and
family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 85-13
and Luke 71-10rdquo
Craig L Blomberg Denver Seminary
Enter a world of warfare and treachery of duty and honor
of love and loyalty interwoven with the inner workings of a
Roman centurionrsquos household And then trace it as the roadcurves toward little Capernaum
Follow the story of Appius a proud centurion and
Tullus his scribe and slave From a battle with the Parthians
through a tragic personal crisis to the gladiator arena at
Caesarea Maritima their tale finally leads to the backwater
vil lage of Capernaum on the shores of Gali lee There in
a culture not their own and during a week they will never
forget they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth
In entertaining historical fiction this fast-paced account
gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels
Splashed with informative sidebars and images we capture a
view of Jesusrsquo world from the outer framework looking in
Gary M Burge (PhD University of Aberdeen) is professor

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it
John Goldingay (PhD University of Nottingham DD
Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan
Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological
Seminary His books include The Theology of the Book of Isaiah
Key Questions about Interpretation Models for Scripture and

pastor at St Barnabas Episcopal Church Pasadena He
holds membership in the Society of Biblical Literature and
the Society for Old Testament Study and serves on the Task
Force on Biblical Interpretation in the Anglican Commu-
nion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith
Brian K Morley (PhD Claremont University) is professor
of philosophy and apologetics at the Masterrsquos College inSanta Clarita California He is the author of God in the
Shadows Evil in Godrsquos World and has been a member of the
Evangelical Theological Society the Evangelical Philosoph-
ical Society and the Society of Christian Philosophers

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the

of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-

Charles A Davis
Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Do We Need the New Testament
Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself
Do we need the Old Testament Thatrsquos a familiar question
often asked But as an Old Testament scholar John Gold-
ingay turns that question on its head Do we need the New
Testament
Whatrsquos new about the New Testament After all the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God Do we need anything
more And what happens when we begin to look at the Old
Testament the First Testament not as a deficient old work in
need of a christological makeover but as a rich and splendid
revelation of Godrsquos faithfulness to Israel and the world
In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book
Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety
of angles Under his expert hand each facet unfolds the
surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us
to recalibrate our perspective on it
John Goldingay (PhD University of Nottingham DD
Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan
Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological
Seminary His books include The Theology of the Book of Isaiah
Key Questions about Interpretation Models for Scripture and

nion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew

Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-
tialism of Gary Habermas Moving beyond theory Morley
also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in
practical terms covering the complexities of apologetics
in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist Evenhanded
and respectful of each contribution this book provides the
reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith
Brian K Morley (PhD Claremont University) is professor
of philosophy and apologetics at the Masterrsquos College inSanta Clarita California He is the author of God in the
Shadows Evil in Godrsquos World and has been a member of the
Evangelical Theological Society the Evangelical Philosoph-

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

original voices ever to speak into the conversation
about youth ministryrdquo
Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the
Wesleyan Church

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation

of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality

Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Comparing Contemporary Approaches
rdquoThe most complete and best analysis to date of my
overall apologetic approachrdquo
John Warwick Montgomery Concordia University
Everyone believes something But how and why do people
believe What counts as evidence How much can be
assumed or believed by faith alone
In this comprehensive survey Brian Morley provides an
overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they
differ He explores the historical and philosophical under-
pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought from

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical

Translated by David R Maxwell
Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture
David R Maxwell (PhD University of Notre Dame) is
associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia
Seminary in St Louis Missouri An ordained minister in
the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids

Daniel A Westberg
Renewing Moral Theology
Christian Ethics as Action Character and Grace
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency
Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral
grammar of their faith The need to reengage the deep-
down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom
been more urgent
Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and
Anglican traditions The tradition of theological ethics
influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas offers a distinct
emphasis on the virtues and character formation Now
Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition
with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and
the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character while also
laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason
and ethical living
Christiansmdashwhether of Anglican Catholic or other
traditionsmdashinterested in vigorously retrieving a great moral
heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-
tion and discipleship
Daniel A Westberg (DPhil Oxford University) is
professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House a
seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah Wisconsin
He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries
and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in
the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city
parishes He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia
for eight years
Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason Action
Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals
such as The Anglican Theological Review The Thomist and
New Blackfriars as well as several short articles in The New
Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

Patrick W T Johnson
Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas

Every professor hoping students will learn to inter-
pret the Prophets correctly ought to assign this bookrdquo
D Brent Sandy author of
Plowshares and Pruning Hooks
rdquo[Chalmers] has assimilated a vast and complex range
of materials from the Old Testament and its world
and from the scholarly world and out of them has
formulated a coherent and intelligible account of the
Prophets for his readers And it all serves a passion to
help people read the Prophets for themselvesrdquo

prophetic books in Israel Old Testament scholar Aaron
Chalmers leads the reader through the various ldquoworldsrdquo

information needed both for sound and sensible exegesis
and for sensitive interpretation and application for today
He concludes with a helpful chapter giving guidelines for
preaching from the Prophetsmdashincluding advice on choosing
the texts making appropriate analogies and the potential
problems and common pitfalls to avoid

Edd Noell professor of economics and business

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Receiving the Past Renewing the Church
rdquoThinking in the present is often animated enriched
and healed by thinking through the past this book
tells its readers why and how this is sordquo
John Webster professor of divinity

rdquoTradition is the living faith of the deadrdquo mdashJaroslav Pelikan
The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode
of theological discernment a cultivated habit of thought It
views the doctrines practices and resonant realities of theChristian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age This move-
ment across the church looks back in order to move forward
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied move-
ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice
of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive the
interpretation of Scripture the articulation of theology
the practices of worship the disciplines of spirituality the
modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical
Orthodoxy In each area they offer a wide-angle v iew before
taking a close look at representative examples in order to
give finer texture to the discussion More than a survey and
mapping of the terrain Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-
tion practice and hope

While the age of the Holy Spirit began with Pentecost the
twentieth century has seen an explosion in the Spiritrsquos work

These essays gathered from the 2014 Wheaton Theology
Conference provide an ecumenical exploration of the Holy
Spiritrsquos person and work in biblical historical doctrinal and
practical perspective

rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior

The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and

rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

East a key emphasis on linguistics and a revised exegetical
format This volume includes introduction translation

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Christian Renewal in the Community of Faith
While the age of the Holy Spirit began with Pentecost the
twentieth century has seen an explosion in the Spiritrsquos work
through the remarkable growth of Pentecostalism and the
changing face of global Christianity But pneumatology too
often remains a subject of misunderstanding and neglect
These essays gathered from the 2014 Wheaton Theology
Conference provide an ecumenical exploration of the Holy
Spiritrsquos person and work in biblical historical doctrinal and
practical perspective

Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship

years She is assistant professor of practical theology

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior

Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Edd Noell professor of economics and business

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the

of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Charles A Davis
Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Kenda Creasy Dean Princeton Theological Seminary
rdquoIt wonrsquot take more than a few chapters to reveal
that Mandy is one of the most profound accessible
original voices ever to speak into the conversation
about youth ministryrdquo
Mark DeVries author of Sustainable Youth Ministry
The idea of giving onersquos testimony often evokes summer
church camps evangelistic revivals mission trips and
baptisms But what if our view of shar ing a testimony of faith
is all wrong
According to Amanda Drury testimony is not merely
about describing something that happened in the past It is
a practice that forms our present and future identity Testi-
mony changes us and without it we risk having a stunted
and stale faith
Drawing on work in sociology psychology and theology
Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-
tial practice for Christian spiritual formation especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-
tity Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-
cents to articulate their religious beliefs Now more than
ever churches need to recover the practice of testimony asan integral part of communal worship
Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen
years She is assistant professor of practical theology
at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the
Wesleyan Church

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

Kenneth G Elzinga professor of economics

Edd Noell professor of economics and business

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Translated by David R Maxwell
Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture
David R Maxwell (PhD University of Notre Dame) is
associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia
Seminary in St Louis Missouri An ordained minister in
the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at

ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the

of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness
Ethics and Christian Discipleship
Christianity is in a state of moral crisis
Even though people make moral decisions every day
many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these
decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a
morally faithful life Compared to the people around them
there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go
about making moral choices
As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades
of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching
ethics to undergraduates Gary Tyra approaches the topic
with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and
encouraging an ldquoeverydayrdquo moral faithfulness Tyra argues
that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered
Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in
any moral situation Moral faithfulness follows from a life of
Christian discipleship
In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion
Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign
of hope for the future
Gary Tyra (DMin Fuller Theological Seminary) is
professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard
University Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission
Christrsquos Empowering Presence A Missional Orthodoxy Beyond the
Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism Tyra has over twenty-five years
of pastoral experience including his last position as senior
pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church

Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

D Brent Sandy author of

and from the scholarly world and out of them has
formulated a coherent and intelligible account of the

Applying Christian Ethics in Economics
rdquoKeying the book to the leading textbooks John
Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for
students and teachers of introductory economics
coursesmdashthough the book merits study outside the
classroom as wellrdquo
Kenneth G Elzinga professor of economics
University of Virginia
rdquoThe book takes seriously the authority of Scripture
in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of
economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal-
lenging mannerrdquo
Edd Noell professor of economics and business
Westmont College
Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection
Karl Barth and the Theology of the Lordrsquos Supper and Thomas F

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological

Translated by David R Maxwell
Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture
David R Maxwell (PhD University of Notre Dame) is
associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia
Seminary in St Louis Missouri An ordained minister in
the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids

Foreword by David J Lose
The Mission of Preaching
Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness
rdquoPatrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation
of the missional church on the theology and practice
of preaching Combining scholarship and pastoral
passion he is profoundly broadening and deepening
the exploration of the missional church with this
pioneering workrdquo
Darrell L Guder Henry Winters Luce Professor of
Missional and Ecumenical TheologyPrinceton Theological Seminary
We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology
missional leadership and missional church planting But
what about missional preaching
Now that the church in the West lives within a post-
Christendom context how should preaching look different
What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom
but are no longer relevant for a missionary church
In The Mission of Preaching Patrick Johnson develops the
first missional homiletic a model for preaching deter-
mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-
ical theory and missional theology he argues that preaching
is a major form of the churchrsquos witness to Jesus Christ equip-
ping the congregation for its witness to the world
Patrick W T Johnson (PhD Princeton Theological
Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in
Frenchtown New Jersey and adjunct professor at Princeton
Theological Seminary He also serves as a PCUSA teaching
elder and as a preaching consultant He received his PhD in
practical theology with a concentration in homiletics and
continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas
of speech worship missional theology and homiletics

rdquoKeying the book to the leading textbooks John
Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for

Kenneth G Elzinga professor of economics
University of Virginia
rdquoThe book takes seriously the authority of Scripture
in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of
economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal-
lenging mannerrdquo
Edd Noell professor of economics and business
Westmont College
Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection
Karl Barth and the Theology of the Lordrsquos Supper and Thomas F

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the

of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Charles A Davis
Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

D Brent Sandy author of

Edd Noell professor of economics and business

Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace

of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

rdquoKeying the book to the leading textbooks John
Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for

Kenneth G Elzinga professor of economics

rdquoThe book takes seriously the authority of Scripture
in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of
economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal-
lenging mannerrdquo
Edd Noell professor of economics and business
Westmont College
Self-interest economic efficiency and private property rights
are among the most basic assumptions of market economics
But can an economic theory built on these assumptionsalone provide adequate insight into human nature motiva-
tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life
John Stapleford says no along with those economists who
recognize the limits of their discipline He insightfully shows
us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with
economic life and analysis Writing from a Christian ethical
perspective he interacts with seven standard introductory
economics texts exploring the moral challenges embedded
in various macro- micro- and international economic theo-
ries and outlining a faithful response to them
The third edition includes two new chapters on
economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded
discussions of entitlements government debt healthcare
reform and immigration reform

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Faith Freedom and the Spirit
The Economic Trinity in Barth Torrance and
Contemporary Theology
rdquoPaul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of
his generation This book is a magisterial interpre-
tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation
to election and the incarnationrdquo
George Hunsinger Princeton Theological Seminary
Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work
Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help
us think more accurately about the economic Trinity andabout divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith
and knowledge within history Molnar relies on the thinking
of Karl Barth and Thomas F Torrance in dialogue with
other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)
about divine and human freedom
Powerfully argued and meticulously documented
Molnarrsquos magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-
sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-
nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit He considers
the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and
discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology
expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith
relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the
economy of grace
Paul D Molnar (PhD Fordham University) is professor
of systematic theology at St Johnrsquos University in Queens
New York He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection

Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Oren R Martin
Bound for the Promised Land
The Land Promise in Godrsquos Redemptive Plan
ldquo[Martinrsquos] synthesis of the land promises kingdom
promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and
sometimes movingrdquo
From the preface by D A Carson
Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with
creation where humans live in the presence of their Lord
so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even
more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell
with the Lord and his ChristThe historical development between the beginning and
the end is crucial for the journey proceeds through the
land promised to Abraham The Promised Land is the place
where Godrsquos people wil l once again live under his lordship
and experience his blessed presence
In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical
Theology series Oren Martin demonstrates how the land
promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost
in Eden also serving as a type throughout Israelrsquos history
that anticipates the even greater land that will result from
the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new
creation for eternity
Oren R Martin (PhD The Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at
Boyce College at Southern Seminary Martin has written
articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical
Theological Society Trinity Journal the Journal for Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition

Translated by David R Maxwell
Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture
David R Maxwell (PhD University of Notre Dame) is
associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia
Seminary in St Louis Missouri An ordained minister in
the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

Cyril of Alexandria
Translated by David R Maxwell
Edited by Joel C Elowsky
Commentary on John Volume 2
Cyril of Alexandria (ca 378ndash444) one of the most brilliant
representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition
is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-
bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople Cyrilrsquos
great Commentary on John offered here in the Ancient Chris-
tian Texts series in two volumes predates the Nestorian
controversy and focuses its theological firepower against
Arianism The commentary addressed to catechists displays
Cyrilrsquos breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible
and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-
tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of Godrsquos
salvation
David R Maxwell provides readers with the first
completely fresh English translation of the text since the
nineteenth century It rests on Puseyrsquos critical edition of
the Greek text and displays Cyrilrsquos profound theological
interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic
tradition that preceded him Todayrsquos readers will find the
commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyrilrsquos
approach to Scripture
David R Maxwell (PhD University of Notre Dame) is
associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia
Seminary in St Louis Missouri An ordained minister in
the Lutheran Church and a trained organist Maxwell has
also done work on the theological symbolism of J S Bachrsquos
Clavieruumlbung III
Joel C Elowsky (PhD Drew University) is associate

Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly

field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Edited by Robert T Walker
Incarnation
The Person and Life of Christ
rdquoNo other book I know in English does what this
superb volume does in presenting with absolute
clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal
church on the person and work of Christ bringing
together biblical patristic and Reformation perspec-
tives in a rich harmony This book is a wonderful
legacy from one of the very greatest of English-
language systematic theologiansrdquoRowan Williams former Archbishop of Canterbury
The late Thomas F Torrance has been called ldquothe greatest
Reformed theologian since Karl Barthrdquo and ldquothe greatest
British theologian of the twentieth centuryrdquo by prominent
voices in the academy His work has profoundly shaped
contemporary theology in the English-speaking world
This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrancersquos
lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on
Christology at New College Edinburgh from 1952 to 1978
In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight
Torrancersquos distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-
ical studymdashJesus Christmdashactively gives himself to us in order
that we may know him
Thomas F Torrance (1913ndash2007) occupied the chair
of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for
twenty-seven years He was the recipient of the Templeton
Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978 and he served as
moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the
Scottish Journal of Theology
Robert T Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh Univer-
sity As T F Torrancersquos nephew Walker has gained an inti-
mate understanding of Torrancersquos theology studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

East a key emphasis on linguistics and a revised exegetical
format This volume includes introduction translation

James (Second Edition)
The genius of the letter of James lies in its powerfully simplecall for repentance for action for a consistent Christian life-

invigorating transforming Christianity This second edition

and section-by-section commentary of the book of James
ldquoThe Bible is being translated commented on read
studied preached and analyzed as never before But it is
questionable whether it is being obeyed to a comparable
degreerdquo says Moo in the preface ldquoAll this suggests that the
message of James is one that we all need to hearmdashand obeyrdquo
Written for the educated layperson while also helpful to
pastors and scholars the updated volume takes into account
new knowledge critical questions literary context and Bible
translations

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and
study notes on Haggai and Zechariah for a new edition of
the NIV Study Bible

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and

N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book ldquothe best of songsrdquo has fasci-
nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries We hear the
passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by
erotic imagery but whose love is described Is it a couplersquos
love for each other Godrsquos love for his people or a poem that
speaks to love in all its dimensions
Iain Duguidrsquos Tyndale Old Testament Commentary
explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-
ized picture of married love in the context of a fallen and
broken world It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall both as humans and as lovers and drives
us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband
Jesus Christ

East a key emphasis on linguistics and a revised exegetical
format This volume includes introduction translation

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and
study notes on Haggai and Zechariah for a new edition of

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and
study notes on Haggai and Zechariah for a new edition of
the NIV Study Bible

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Biblical Commentaries
Anthony R Petterson
Haggai Zechariah amp Malachi
The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai Zechariah andMalachi are set in times of great adversity Godrsquos people
were minnows in the vast Persian Empire and the promises
of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-
salem seemed far from their experience These books from
beginning to end restate Godrsquos intention to establish his
glorious kingdom and explain what this means for the lives
of his people
For Haggai and Zechariah the immediate challenge was
to rebuild the temple in view of Godrsquos return For Malachi
the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had
infected the peoplersquos attitudes towards God and how this
needed to change in view of future judgment God used
each of these prophets to remind the people of the true
King and to reorder their lives and their community in the
light of the reality of his coming kingdom
In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary Anthony
Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic
books setting them in their wider biblical-theological
context He shows the connections between the post-exilic
world and our own and explains how these books contain a
vital message for the church today living in the gap betweenpromise and reality
Anthony R Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and
Hebrew at Morling College New South Wales Australia
Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist
Church Sydney and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road
Baptist Church Dublin He is the author of Behold Your King
The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah and
study notes on Haggai and Zechariah for a new edition of
the NIV Study Bible

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

New Testament Studies
N T Wright
The Challenge of Jesus
Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is
rdquoWright has produced a work of frankly evangelical
faith with strong historical integrity because both are
necessary for serious study uncomfortable as that
may be A refreshing and inspiring read for those
who take both conservative faith and historical schol-
arship seriouslyrdquo
Library Journal January 2000
Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the
historical Jesus is underway Now this paperback edition of
N T Wrightrsquos classic work contains even more insight with
an all-new introduction by the author
Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take
seriously the study of the historical Jesus He writes ldquoMany
Christians have been frankly sloppy in their thinking and
talking about Jesus and hence sadly in their praying and
in their practice of discipleship We cannot assume that by
saying the word Jesus still less the word Christ we are auto-
matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked
in first-century PalestinerdquoThe Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged chal lenge to
grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the
Palestinian world of the first century and to follow Jesus
more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-
first century
N T Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and
popular books including Jesus and the Victor y of God Simply
Christian The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said
His N T Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries
covering the entire New TestamentFormerly bishop of Durham in England Wright is
research professor of New Testament and early Christianity
at the University of St Andrews in Scotland He was formerly
canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-
field Cathedral He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge McGill and Oxford Universities

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Debra Hirsch
Foreword by Gabe Lyons
Redeeming Sex
Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality
ldquoIf you are willing to invest the time to listenmdashreally
listenmdashto what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing
and complex nature of human sexuality you wonrsquot
fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace her
trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her
unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-
cile repair and renew us allrdquo
Michael Frost author of Incarnate and Exiles
Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and
the broader society quite like the cultural argument over
sexuality Relationships identities orientations and even
concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the
church and the world In the fog of war and the cloud of
conflict itrsquos increasingly hard to see our way clearly
There is hope however Debra Hirsch has seen it
firsthandmdashin meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT
friends and neighbors in Christian fellowships and in move-
ments that have held a concern for people created in Godrsquosimage and a high view of the Biblersquos teaching on sexuality in
constructive tension When you consider the world from the
perspective of Godrsquos kingdom mission it turns out the smoke
clears and a redemptive imagination takes root
Discover a holistic biblical vision of sex and gender that
honors God and offers good news to the world
Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministr ies among
young adults the poor and the LGBT community for
over twenty years She is a minister of an eclectic bunch
of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los
Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed Reactivating a Missional
Form of Discipl eship (with Alan Hirsch) She also serves on the
leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and
on the steering team for the Missio Alliance

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World
Evangelical Alliance

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

of Christianophobia (3) Canrsquot Please All the People (4) Are
Christians Responsible for Christianophobia (5) The Partic-
ular Challenge of Homosexuality (6) Trouble Within (7) Hate

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about

nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Charles A Davis
Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis
Contents (1) Introduction (2) Haters Gotta Hate Roots
of Christianophobia (3) Canrsquot Please All the People (4) Are
Christians Responsible for Christianophobia (5) The Partic-
ular Challenge of Homosexuality (6) Trouble Within (7) Hate

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about

insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion
confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-
ties to wholeness This is the whole work of the cross this is
the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh
Noel Castellanos works in Latino urban communi-
ties across the country serving in youth ministry church
planting advocacy and community development He is chief
executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor
of Chicagorsquos La Villita Community Church He is the coau-
thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban
and Suburban Ministry

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids

Noel Castellanos
Foreword by John Perkins Wayne Gordon
Where the Cross Meets the Street
What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at
the Center
ldquoNoel is a leader of the times and a champion of the
practitioner This book takes twenty-five plus years
of experience and gives us lessons and testimony
to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it
relevant todayrdquo
Leroy Barber global executive director
Word Made Flesh
The cross means more than wersquove let it mean
Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful these
are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church
As central as these disciplines are however they are only
part of the story And as Christian Community Develop-
ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has
learned over a lifetime of ministr y and mission the neglect
of the gospelrsquos full implications has contributed to the
erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and
other marginalized peopleHere Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a
narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to
embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples
This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion

Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids

Charles A Davis
Making Disciples Across Cultures
Missional Principles for a Diverse World
rdquoCharles Davis applies a distinctively missionary
analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time
But itrsquos not all critique and analysis built on narrative
and experience he lovingly provides the church with
a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-
ways toward renewal of church life and missionrdquo
Alan Hirsch founding director of Forge Missional
Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways
Culture affects how we make disciples We often uncon-
sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission but in todayrsquos global environment disciple-
making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches
Charles Davis former director of TEAM (The Evan-
gelical Alliance Mission) provides a framework for missional
disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts With
on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience
Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior
individualism and collectivism and truth and works to helpChristian workers minister more effectively
Charles A Davis (PhD Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School) is the former executive international director of
TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-
rience in global disciplemaking and missional church
planting He was previously president of the Evangelical
Seminary of Caracas and he is a member of the Global
Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Michael Hidalgo
Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids
Michigan With the ONE Campaign and Malaria No MoreHidalgo has addressed thousands nationally He writes regu-

George Yancey
Hostile Environment
Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias
ldquoThe only good Christian is a dead Christianrdquo
In our heated cultural environment comments like this
are increasingly common Sometimes Christians are too
quick to claim that they are being persecuted But Chris-
tians arenrsquot just being paranoid or alarmist Anti-Christian
hostility is real
Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of
Christianophobia an intense animosity against Christians
and the Christ ian faith Among some circles opposition to
Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices
like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination While Christian-
ophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the
violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of
the world Christians are often still treated in ways that
perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture
war acrimony
Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root
causes of Christianophobia and he considers to what extent
Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian
hostility At times criticisms of Christians are justified but
Christians can confront untruths without capitulation Inthis truthful yet hope-filled treatise Yancey shows how Chris-
tians can respond more constructively defusing tensions
and working toward the common good
George Yancey (PhD University of Texas) is professor of
sociology at the University of North Texas specializing in
raceethnicity biracial families and anti-Christian bias He
is the author coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-
mising Scholarship Religious and Political Bias in American
Higher Education Dehumanizing Christians Cultural Competition
in a Multicultural World There Is No God Atheists in AmericaBeyond Black and White Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Donrsquot
Marry One He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting
helping churches and ministr ies develop and sustain a multi-
racial emphasis

Michael Hidalgo
Changing Faith
Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids
Michigan With the ONE Campaign and Malaria No MoreHidalgo has addressed thousands nationally He writes regu-

Questions Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God
ldquoFor those struggling with difficult questions about
God faith and life overall Michael Hidalgo offers
insights from Scripture reflections from his own
journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all
toward a more robust faith in Jesusrdquo
Brad Lomenick author The Catalyst Leader
ldquoThere are so many things I am not comfortable with
claiming as 100 percent true but I cannot say they are 100
percent false either I cannot and will not go back to thefaith I have clung to for decades I am done with itrdquo
This is not a declaration of being done with faith but
it is a recognition that faith has to change Many of us are
grappling with similar doubts How much can we actually
know about God and our world Who is right and who is
wrong Whose ldquotruthrdquo is really true Do I need God to live a
life that matters
We have questions not because we reject faith in God but
because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities
new technology and new insights that demand new answers
This changes how we live communicate think and believe
We know we are moving from somewhere but we donrsquot
exactly know what we are moving toward Thatrsquos what this
book is about
Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-
nity Church which under his leadership has grown from
forty people to over 1500 A graduate of Grand Rapids
Theological Seminary Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson
as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids
Michigan With the ONE Campaign and Malaria No MoreHidalgo has addressed thousands nationally He writes regu-
