    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    Paul's letters to the Galatians, Ephesians, and Philippians have struck an indelible impression on Christian tradition and piety.

    Reading James, 1-2 Peter, 1-3 John, and Jude as Canon

    by Darian R. Lockett

    Biblical Foundations Book Awards Finalist

Tucked into a few pages near the back of our Bibles, these books are sometimes referred to as the "non-Pauline epistles" or "concluding letters," maybe getting lumped together with Hebrews and Revelation. Yet these letters, Darian Lockett argues, are treasures hidden in ...

    by Nijay K. Gupta
