Christian Nursing in a Changing Profession
by Judith Allen Shelly and Arlene B. Miller

Forming Whole and Holy Persons
Edited by Christopher Gehrz
Pietism has long been ignored in evangelical scholarship. This is especially the case in the field of Christian higher education, which is dominated by thinkers in the Reformed tradition and complicated by the association of Pietism with anti-intellectualism.

A Redemptive-Movement Hermeneutic for Troubling Texts
