    Worship and the World to Come

    Exploring Christian Hope in Contemporary Worship

    Dynamics of Christian Worship

    by Glenn Packiam

    Christians sing because we are people of hope.

    Yet our hope is unlike other kinds of hope. We are not optimists; nor are we escapists. Christian hope is uniquely shaped by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and by the promise of our own future resurrection.

    How is that hope both expressed and experienced in contemporary worship? In this volume in the Dynamics ...

    Strong and Weak

    Embracing a Life of Love, Risk and True Flourishing

    The IVP Signature Collection

    by Andy Crouch

    Flourishing people are strong and weak.

    Two common temptations lure us away from abundant living: withdrawing into safety and grasping for power. True flourishing, says Andy Crouch, travels down an unexpected path—being both strong and weak.

    Edited by Sever Voicu
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    While the canonical status of the Greek and Latin Old Testament texts commented on within this volume has been understood differently within Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Orthodox traditions, their longstanding use within the Christian churches makes them worthy of careful study and reflection. As noted in the Anglican Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion, Jerome says that the church ...

    Delivered from the Elements of the World

    Atonement, Justification, Mission

    by Peter J. Leithart

    In Delivered from the Elements of the World Peter Leithart reframes Anselm's question, "Why the God Man?" Instead he asks, "How can the death and resurrection of a Jewish rabbi of the first century . . . be the decisive event in the history of humanity, the hinge and crux and crossroads for everything?" With the question reframed for the wide screen, Leithart pursues ...

  • Knowing the Holy Spirit Through the Old Testament, By Christopher J. H. Wright
    paperback

    Knowing the Holy Spirit Through the Old Testament

    Knowing God Through the Old Testament Set

    by Christopher J. H. Wright

    We tend to think of the Holy Spirit as the straggler of the Trinity, a latecomer in God's interaction with the world. But our first introduction to the Holy Spirit is not the drama of Pentecost in the second chapter of Acts. We first meet the Holy Spirit in the second verse of the Bible, hovering there, speaking the world into existence. Christopher Wright begins here and traces the Holy Spirit ...
