    The Messianic Vision of the Pentateuch

    by Kevin S. Chen

    Did Moses write about Jesus? Jesus himself made this bold claim (recorded in John 5:46). Yet while most readers of the Bible today recognize a few Messianic prophecies in the Pentateuch, they don't often see them as part of its central message. In The Messianic Vision of the Pentateuch, Kevin Chen challenges the common view of the Pentateuch as focused primarily on the ...

    The Trinity and John's Gospel

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Andreas J. Köstenberger and Scott R. Swain
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    From the patristic period until today, John's Gospel has served as a major source for the church's knowledge, doctrine and worship of the triune God. Among all New Testament documents the Fourth Gospel provides not only the most raw material for the doctrine of the Trinity, but also the most highly developed patterns of reflection on this material—particularly patterns that seek to account in some ...

    Just Courage

    God's Great Expedition for the Restless Christian

    by Gary A. Haugen

    "There must be more to the Christian life than this—more than church each Sunday and waving to my neighbors and giving some clothes to Goodwill when I go through my closet each spring." These aren't bad things, of course. But they're safe and comfortable and easy. And there's a reason they're not satisfying your desire for something more significant and meaningful—we're created by God ...

    History is made up of stories--narratives that recount the events, movements, ideas and lives that have shaped religions and nations. Theologian Roger Olson believes that the history of Christian theology should be told as such a story, one replete with thick plots, exciting twists, interesting ...

  • Karl Barth's Infralapsarian Theology: Origins and Development, 1920-1953, By Shao Kai Tseng
    paperback

    Karl Barth's Infralapsarian Theology

    Origins and Development, 1920-1953

    New Explorations in Theology

    by Shao Kai Tseng
    Foreword by George Hunsinger

    Theologians have long assumed that Karl Barth's doctrine of election is supralapsarian.

    Challenging decades of scholarship, Shao Kai Tseng argues that despite Barth's stated favor of supralapsarianism, his mature lapsarian theology is complex and dialectical, critically reappropriating both supra- and infralapsarian patterns of thinking. Barth can be described as basically ...

    From Biblical Faith to Cultural Captivity

    by Thabiti M. Anyabwile

All of these were African American Christian theologians, yet their theologies are, in many ways, worlds apart. In this book, Thabiti Anyabwile offers a challenging and provocative assessment of the history of African American Christian theology, ...

    Critical Theology

    Introducing an Agenda for an Age of Global Crisis

    by Carl A. Raschke

    What is the future of theology in the midst of rapid geopolitical and economic change? Carl A. Raschke contends that two options from the last century—crisis theology and critical theory—do not provide the resources needed to address the current global crisis. Both of these perspectives remained distant from the messiness and unpredictability of life. Crisis theology spoke of the wholly other God, ...
