    The Openness of God

    A Biblical Challenge to the Traditional Understanding of God

    by Clark H. Pinnock, Richard Rice, John Sanders, William Hasker, and David Basinger

    Voted one of Christianity Today's Books of the Year

While it rejects process theology, the book asserts that such classical doctrines as God's immutability, impassibility and foreknowledge demand reconsideration.

    by Mary J. Evans

    In the books of 1 and 2 Samuel, we witness the transition of Israel from tribal confederacy to established monarchy. And, as Mary Evans shows in this passage-by-passage commentary, during such a transition questions of identity and power are unavoidable.

    How Understanding Science Can Strengthen Your Christian Life

    The Last Things

    Contours of Christian Theology

    by David Höhne

    There is no shortage of books on eschatology—the study of the last things and the end-times.

    The Uncontrolling Love of God

    An Open and Relational Account of Providence

    by Thomas Jay Oord

    IVP Readers' Choice Award

    Rarely does a new theological position emerge to account well for life in the world, including not only goodness and beauty but also tragedy and randomness. Drawing from Scripture, science, philosophy and various theological traditions, Thomas Jay Oord offers a novel theology of providence—essential kenosis—that emphasizes God's inherently noncoercive ...
