    What did Paul mean by "works of the law"?

    Paul writes that we are justified by faith apart from "works of the law," a disputed term that represents a fault line between "old" and "new" perspectives on Paul. Was the apostle reacting against the ...

    I've Been Wondering

    Conversations with Young Theologians

    by Richard B. Steele

    College and seminary students rarely have a voice in theological discussions. True, there are many books written for them. Introductions to the Bible, surveys of church history, anthologies of theological classics, overviews of Christian doctrine, and dictionaries of the various theological sub-disciplines abound. But it is one thing for professional theologians to answer the questions they think ...

    From Bubble to Bridge

    Educating Christians for a Multifaith World

    by Marion H. Larson and Sara L. H. Shady
    Foreword by Eboo Patel

    Understanding our religious neighbors is more important than ever—but also more challenging. In a world of deep religious strife and increasing pluralism it can seem safer to remain inside the "bubble" of our faith community. Christian college campuses in particular provide a strong social bubble that reinforces one's faith identity in distinction from the wider society. Many Christians ...

    Christianity Today Biblical Studies Award of Merit

    For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly through the corridors of art, literature and theology. But for most moderns, taking it at face value is incongruous. And even for many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously the authority of Scripture, insisting on a "literal" understanding ...

    The Trinity in the Book of Revelation

    Seeing Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in John's Apocalypse

    Studies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture

    by Brandon D. Smith
    Foreword by Lewis Ayres

    How should we read the book of Revelation?

    Interpreting Scripture faithfully is a challenge with regard to any text and for any reader of the Bible. But perhaps no text confronts and confuses readers as much as the book of Revelation. With its vivid imagery and rich prophetic language, John's Apocalypse provokes and stirs our imaginations. Some have viewed it primarily as ...

  • Even with a PhD from Fuller Seminary and her status as one of the few Asian female scholars in her discipline, Chloe Sun still considers herself as someone who operates in the margins of a dominant culture in which she often feels invisible and hidden. In her book, Conspicuous in His Absence: Studies in the Song of Songs and Esther, Chloe examines a combination of biblical texts that are rarely studied together but which share a common characteristic: God is absent in both. As she illuminates what we can learn about God through his absence, Chloe also makes it clear through her work and her words that those on the margins have much to say and offer even though they are often absent from the center of the church and the academy.
