    Shaping a Digital World

    Faith, Culture and Computer Technology

    by Derek C. Schuurman

    Digital technology has become a ubiquitous feature of modern life. Our increasingly fast-paced world seems more and more remote from the world narrated in Scripture.

    Do We Need the New Testament?

    Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself

    by John Goldingay

    Do we need the Old Testament? That's a familiar question, often asked. But as an Old Testament scholar, John Goldingay turns that question on its head: Do we need the New Testament? What's new about the New Testament? After all, the Old Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew. Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God. Do we need anything more? And what happens when we begin to look ...

    Addiction and Virtue

    Beyond the Models of Disease and Choice

    Strategic Initiatives in Evangelical Theology

    by Kent Dunnington

    More recently, the terms of the debate have shifted, and the issue has taken on new urgency with the theological proposal known as the openness of God. This view ...

    Christ Crucified

    Understanding the Atonement

    by Donald Macleod

    How could the life, let alone the death, of one man 2,000 years ago be the salvation of the human race? The biblical explanation is the atonement: the crucified one was the Son of God, acting and suffering in cooperation with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. The crucifixion of Jesus Christ is presented in all four Gospels, and occupies considerable space in the overall narrative. The death ...
