In The Twilight Of The Christian West
$26.00As far-right authoritarianism resurges under the banner of preserving Western civilization, Mac Loftin reveals how white Christian nationalism’s political will is shaped by a theology of power within Christianity itself.
Countering this malignant theology, Loftin draws on the vision of antifascist thinkers, mystics, and theologians including Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Simone Weil, and Michel de Certeau. He reveals how these revolutionaries forged potent theological resistance in their own fraught political moments by recovering a radically different Christian tradition: one that embraces impermanence, reconciliation, difference, and the liberative work of mourning.

More Than Half Way Home
$25.00When Dustin Feddon began accompanying men on death row and in solitary confinement, he saw a broken system that failed man after man within its walls. Even for those in “release” programs, what he saw–and the men he met–compelled him to ask if there could be new kinds of spaces, not confined spaces or “halfway houses,” but communities that welcomed people back into the human family, re-affirming their dignity? The answer he discovered, was a resounding Yes. That yes began a new community–and the story of Joseph House.
All author royalties will go to support the work of Joseph House.

I Am A Mission On This Earth
$18.00“My mission of being in the heart of the people is not just a part of my life or a badge I can take off. . . . Instead, it is something I cannot uproot from my being without destroying my very self. I am a mission on this earth; that is the reason why I am here in this world.”– Pope Francis
From his first appearance on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica in 2013 until his death in 2025, Pope Francis, through words and gestures, fulfilled the promise and challenge suggested by his namesake, Francis of Assisi: “the man of poverty, peace, who lives and takes care of creation, a man who gives out a sense of peace, a poor man.” Calling the church to step out of its “self-referentiality,” Francis envisioned an evangelizing “community of missionary disciples” that goes out to the “margins and peripheries,” bearing witness to God’s endless love and mercy.
This powerful little book, drawn from the many words and writings of Pope Francis that Orbis Books has published, offers an overview of many of his essential thoughts on mission and evangelization, migrants and refugees, care for creation, war and peace, compassion and mercy, his love and encouragement for young people, and his dream of a “synodal church,” a People of God walking together in faith and hope.

Years Of Ripening
$18.00The Years of Ripening focuses on personal transformation, the wonder and goodness of our hidden self, how the qualities of our personhood have been expressed, and in what ways we can claim ever more of the truest reality of our inner being.
As old age takes place, our physical being naturally weakens and wrinkles. At the same time, our non-physical being smooths out with a peaceful satisfaction. The tight ridges of past failures recede and dark illusions fade as we increasingly trust our life to be a harmonious song rooted in love. This encourages us to shed our self-willed, false control until we become freed from what binds our spirit. We let go of who we imagined ourself to be and grow in a transparency that reveals our seasoned-with-love self.
All is not ended with our final departure. We leave behind the beauty and bounty that resided within our aged selves. Like a ripened melon on the vine, so the matured fruit of our loving heart and weathered wisdom leaves a beneficial legacy to nurture a future generation.

God Of The Oppressed 50th Anniversary Edition (Anniversary)
$28.00God of the Oppressed, first published in 1975, remains a landmark in the development of Black Theology–the first effort to present a systematic theology drawing fully on the resources of African-American religion and culture. Responding to the criticism that his previous books drew too heavily on Euro-American definitions of theology, James Cone went back to his experience of the Black church in Bearden, Arkansas, the tradition of the Spirituals and Black folklore, and the Black history of struggle and survival, to construct a new approach to the gospel.
In his reflections on God, Jesus, suffering, and liberation, Cone relates the gospel message to the exper8ience of the Black community. But a wider theme of the book is the role that social and historical context plays in framing the questions we address to God, as well as the mode of the answers provided. This fiftieth anniversary edition includes a foreword by Anthony Reddie, reflecting on the historical and global significance of this work and its message today.

On October 25, 1993, Maggy Barankitse buried seventy-two bodies in a mass grave on the grounds of the bishop’s house in Burundi, a day after she was made to watch as they were murdered in a fit of ethnic violence.
