Softcover. Condition: used. Jean Danielou devoted his life and scholarship to the question of Christianity and culture. He approached this question in the light of the full Catholic tradition, drawing from the rich resources of the early church fathers, whom he loved deeply. In Prayer: The Mission of the Church Danielou considers the centrality of prayer for the Christian layperson, developing the insight that the active, missionary dimension of the Christian life is in fact the "self-unfolding" of contemplation. There is clearly a trinitarian structure here, in line with both biblical and patristic thought. The spontaneous tone of these short but direct chapters brings out the affective presence of their author and places the issues within the existential context in which theology and spirituality converge.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Reprint. Robert Farrar Capon has earned a well-deserved reputation as a provocative, insightful, humorous, and highly readable theologian. He communicates the mysteries, nuances, and profundities of the Christian faith in his inimitable style, which is more like a conversation with the reader than a theological lecture.<p>Having written about the so-called parables of the kingdom and the parables of grace in two earlier volumes, Capon here deals with the parables of judgment-spoken as well as acted during the last part of Jesus ministry, primarily during Holy Week.</p> <p>Capon points out how Jesus message of judgment differed from the notions of both his enemies and his friends, who were looking for a strong, hell-bound condemnation of all evildoers. Jesus, in contrast, presents divine judgment against the backdrop of grace. Indeed, Capon argues, the key to the parables of judgment is inclusion before exclusion, acceptance before judgment: <i>grace</i> ever remains the sovereign consideration.</p> <p>Including such parables as the Laborers in the Vineyard, the Raising of Lazarus, the Talents, the Cursing of the Fig Tree, the Wicked Tenants, and the Ten Virgins, Capon treats each parable in its immediate context and in the wider biblical context and message of grace. He shows how Jesus impending passion and death form a most significant subtext for the parables of judgment.</p> <p>This book should appeal to a wide readership: scholars, ministers, students, and general readers alike will enjoy and benefit from Capon s stimulating exposition of Jesus last parables.</p>

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Product Description Jesus of Nazareth - a truly unique and fascinating figure whose story remains one of the most enduring of all time. No one can deny the profound impact that this one individual has had on world history - and that he continues to have on millions of people.Son of Man: A New Life of Christ is a timely book for the end of the twentieth century. Never before has Western culture shown so much open interest in spirituality, and alongside the rise of New Age thinking has come renewed interest in the intriguing person of Jesus.What is the truth about Jesus? What was he really like? What was his teaching? And what was he asking of the rest of us? Can we trust what the Bible says about him? And even if we can, how can we begin to assess it all for ourselves?These questions - and others like them - are all addressed in Son of Man. Writing in a readable style, John Drane takes full account of the new understandings that have been emerging in recent theological scholarship, especially regarding the world in which Jesus lived and his relationship to the Jewish faith of his day. In a word, Drane offers here a clear presentation of the life of Jesus against the backdrop of his times.Drane's narrative is enhanced throughout by numerous illustrations, including helpful charts and maps and striking color photographs by Sonia Halliday. The words and pictures here combine to make this book an informative, beautiful work. About the Author John Drane is director of the Centre for the Study of Christianity and Contemporary Society, University of Stirling, Scotland.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Since the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species in 1859, many have found science and belief in God irreconcilable. Now, in the final decade of the twentieth century, stunning advances in physics, biology, and the new fields of chaos and complexity have brought the conflict to a crucial stage. More and more, scientists have begun to look for a single fundamental law or truth that underlies the beginning of the universe and its continued existence. But can we truly find either God or a scientific theory that will erase once and for all the notion of God?.

Hardcover. Condition: used. First Edition. N. T. Wright, Alister McGrath, George Carey, and other top scholars boldly defend the classic view of Jesus.In our current time, the essential, life-changing question that Jesus asked of his disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" has been effectively changed in the thinking of many to "Who would you like me to be?" From feminist theologians who critique Jesus through the experience of women to church growth experts who offer "God at your service," Jesus has been revisioned and reimaged to bless our most indulgent desires. In this clear and forthright book, six New Testament experts provide a credible antidote to the raft of inaccurate pictures of Jesus by reclaiming a place for traditional faith in our postmodern age.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Reprint. Human freedom - God's omnipotence: how can they be reconciled? That question is central to this penetrating study of political action and prophetic function. Ellul's answer to that question, though based on events recorded in the Second Book of Kings, is immediately relevant to contemporary issues and to the church today. Emerging from these reflections is an eloquent testimony to the immense love of God -"which not only creates and saves, but which also in its incomprehensible humility wants to associate man with its work."

Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. As news reports of the horrific tsunami in Asia reached the rest of the world, commentators were quick to seize upon the disaster as proof of either God's power or God's nonexistence. Expanding on his Wall Street Journal piece, "Tremors of Doubt," published the last day of 2004, David Bentley Hart here returns to this pressing question: How can the existence of a good and loving God be reconciled with such suffering? Hart clarifies the biblical account of God's goodness, the nature of evil, and the shape of redemption, incisively revealing where both Christianity's champions and its critics misrepresent what is most essential to Christian belief.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus comprise the two-part event at the heart of the Christian story. Because of its unique meaning and the intense emotions it invokes, Holy Week brings high expectations on the part of congregations and places unusual demands on those who deliver the messages. It takes a specially gifted preacher to communicate the profundity of Christs Passion and its supreme relevance for our contemporary world. Fleming Rutledge is just such a preacher. Heralded by congregations and peers alike as one of todays most compelling and powerful Christian voices, Mrs. Rutledge is also a best-selling author whose previous collections of sermons have touched readers deeply. This new volume, representing twenty-five years of Holy Week and Easter preaching, offers a wide-ranging vision of the Cross and Resurrection that will inform and inspire committed believers and serious seekers alike. Divided into seven sections that progress through Holy Week from Palm Sunday to Good Friday to Easter and on through Eastertide, these sermons incorporate the biblical themes of sacrifice for sin, vicarious suffering, victory over evil and death, and the new creation arising out of eternal love. Many of these sermons are brand-new; others - especially those for Good Friday - have been rethought and reworked over a period of years. None have ever been published before. All of them consistently display Mrs. Rutledges startling ability to bridge the message of the ancient biblical texts with the distinct needs of modern people. Intellectually engaging, pastorally wise, and beautifully written, The Undoing of Death is accented with thirty-three artistic masterpieces depicting the events of Holy Week, making it a feast for the eye as well as the soul.
