Jesus The Word According To John The Sectarian A Print On Demand Title
$19.99Few have failed to notice the increasing accommodation of evangelicalism to worldly culture. Unless this trend is corrected, evangelicalism will soon lose the distinctives that have catapulted it to unparalleled success in the religious marketplace. This bold work by Robert Gundry finds a powerful and much-needed antidote to worldliness in John’s Gospel. Built on a unique combination of biblical exegesis, sociological analysis, and contemporary application, the book traces the influence of Word-Christology throughout the Gospel of John, unpacking its implications for North American evangelicalism. Sure to generate discussion–even controversy–are Gundry’s adoption of a sectarian interpretation of John and his evaluation of contemporary North American evangelicalism. Seeing the evangelical tradition as having moved far down the road from sect to mainline church, he argues that it now needs a strong dose of John’s logocentric sectarianism to avoid losing the edge that has made it successful.

Who Is Jesus
$36.66Jesus’ life and legacy provocatively told
In Who Is Jesus? Keck clarifies the difference between the way Jesus is presented in the Gospels and the way critical historians portray him. He then explores, from four perspectives, Jesus’ contemporary moral and theological pertinence. Keck looks initially at Jesus as a first-century Jew, then considers how Jesus’ mission was energized by his grasp of the kingdom of God. He goes on to probe the meaning of the crucifixion of Jesus in light of the biblical understanding of God’s holiness, a theme largely neglected today. Keck concludes his discussion by looking at Jesus’ role in the moral life of the Christian community.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Jesus Humanity And The Trinity
$40.00“To be a witness and disciple of Jesus, every Christian has to figure out for him- or herself what Christianity is all about. . . . This book is a contribution to such an effort, understood not as a bleak and dry academic exercise but as an attempt to meet an essential demand of everyday Christian living.”
-from the Introduction
With simplicity and elegance, Tanner sketches a historically informed vision of the faith. Chapter 1 recovers strands of early Christian accounts of Jesus and his significance for a very different age. Chapter 2 situates Christology in a religious vision of the whole cosmos, while chapter 3 lays out the ethical and political implications of the vision. Chapter 4 speculates about the “end” of things in Christ. Tanner’s work was developed from the Scottish Journal of Theology Lectures in 1999 in Edinburgh.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

I Happened Upon A Miracle
$23.00In I Happened upon a Miracle, David McKirachan offers eighteen first-person narratives told in the voices of characters from the life of Jesus, ranging from the Christmas story through the crucifixion and resurrection. The characters include the innkeeper in Bethlehem, the little boy whose fishes and loaves fed a crowd, the woman who anointed Jesus’ feet in the house of the Pharisee, a Roman soldier on hand as Jesus drove the moneylenders from the temple in Jerusalem, and the keeper of the garden tomb. In each story we are invited into the Gospel text. We inhabit the stories, and through the voice of each teller we are drawn closer to the wonder experienced by the first witnesses of Jesus.
This imaginative retelling of stories from the perspective of some of the supporting actors and bit players of the Gospels will prove to be an engaging resource for those seeking a fresh perspective on the life and ministry of Jesus.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
