Mark Sheridan

Language for God in Patristic Tradition

Wrestling with Biblical Anthropomorphism

Criticism of myth in the Bible is not a modern problem

Its roots go back to the earliest Christ ian theologians and

before them to ancient Greek and Jewish thinkers The

dilemma posed by texts that ascribe human characteristics

and emotions to the divine is a perennial problem and we

have much to learn from the ancient attempts to address it

Mark Sheridan provides a theological and historical

analysis of the patrist ic interpretation of Scripturersquos

anthropomorphic and anthropopathic language for God

Rather than reject the Bible as mere stories ancient Jewish

and Christian theologians read these texts allegorically or

theologically in order to discover the truth contained within

them They recognized that an edifying and appropriate

interpretation of these stories required that one start from

the understanding that ldquoGod is not a human beingrdquo (Num

2319) Sheridan brings the patristic tradition into conversa-

tion with modern interpreters to show the abiding signifi-

cance of its theological interpretation for today

This work is a landmark resource for students of ancient

Christian theology Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in

its analysis it demonstrates that those engaged in theo-logical interpretation of Scripture have much to gain from

studying their forebears in the faith

Mark Sheridan is a Benedictine monk of Dormition

Abbey in Jerusalem and professor emeritus in the Faculty of

Theology of the Pontificio Ateneo S Anselmo Rome where

he served as dean of the Faculty of Theology (1998ndash2005)

and Rector Magnificus (2005ndash2009) of the Athenaeum

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

G K Beale (PhD University of Cambridge) holds the

J Gresham Machen Chair of New Testament at Westminster

Theological Seminary His books include The Book of Revela-

tion (New International Greek Testament Commentary) 1-2

Thessalonians (The IVP New Testament Commentary Series)

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

driven age

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

Christopher Gehrz (PhD Yale University) is professor

of history and chair of the history department at Bethel

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

Mark Sheridan

Language for God in Patristic Tradition

Wrestling with Biblical Anthropomorphism

Criticism of myth in the Bible is not a modern problem

Its roots go back to the earliest Christ ian theologians and

before them to ancient Greek and Jewish thinkers The

dilemma posed by texts that ascribe human characteristics

and emotions to the divine is a perennial problem and we

have much to learn from the ancient attempts to address it

Mark Sheridan provides a theological and historical

analysis of the patrist ic interpretation of Scripturersquos

anthropomorphic and anthropopathic language for God

Rather than reject the Bible as mere stories ancient Jewish

and Christian theologians read these texts allegorically or

theologically in order to discover the truth contained within

them They recognized that an edifying and appropriate

interpretation of these stories required that one start from

the understanding that ldquoGod is not a human beingrdquo (Num

2319) Sheridan brings the patristic tradition into conversa-

tion with modern interpreters to show the abiding signifi-

cance of its theological interpretation for today

This work is a landmark resource for students of ancient

Christian theology Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in

its analysis it demonstrates that those engaged in theo-logical interpretation of Scripture have much to gain from

studying their forebears in the faith

Mark Sheridan is a Benedictine monk of Dormition

Abbey in Jerusalem and professor emeritus in the Faculty of

Theology of the Pontificio Ateneo S Anselmo Rome where

he served as dean of the Faculty of Theology (1998ndash2005)

and Rector Magnificus (2005ndash2009) of the Athenaeum

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

G K Beale (PhD University of Cambridge) holds the

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton Ontario where he

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

of history and chair of the history department at Bethel

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

David Skeel

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

David Skeel ( JD University of Virginia) is the S Samuel

Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Penn-sylvania Law School He is the author of The New Financial

Deal Icarus in the Boardroom and Debtrsquos Dominion and has

written for such publications as the New York Times Wall

Overturning Tables

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

Mark Sheridan

Language for God in Patristic Tradition

Wrestling with Biblical Anthropomorphism

Criticism of myth in the Bible is not a modern problem

Its roots go back to the earliest Christ ian theologians and

before them to ancient Greek and Jewish thinkers The

dilemma posed by texts that ascribe human characteristics

and emotions to the divine is a perennial problem and we

have much to learn from the ancient attempts to address it

Mark Sheridan provides a theological and historical

analysis of the patrist ic interpretation of Scripturersquos

anthropomorphic and anthropopathic language for God

Rather than reject the Bible as mere stories ancient Jewish

and Christian theologians read these texts allegorically or

theologically in order to discover the truth contained within

them They recognized that an edifying and appropriate

interpretation of these stories required that one start from

the understanding that ldquoGod is not a human beingrdquo (Num

2319) Sheridan brings the patristic tradition into conversa-

tion with modern interpreters to show the abiding signifi-

cance of its theological interpretation for today

This work is a landmark resource for students of ancient

Christian theology Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in

its analysis it demonstrates that those engaged in theo-logical interpretation of Scripture have much to gain from

studying their forebears in the faith

Mark Sheridan is a Benedictine monk of Dormition

Abbey in Jerusalem and professor emeritus in the Faculty of

Theology of the Pontificio Ateneo S Anselmo Rome where

he served as dean of the Faculty of Theology (1998ndash2005)

and Rector Magnificus (2005ndash2009) of the Athenaeum

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

G K Beale (PhD University of Cambridge) holds the

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

David Skeel ( JD University of Virginia) is the S Samuel

Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Penn-sylvania Law School He is the author of The New Financial

Deal Icarus in the Boardroom and Debtrsquos Dominion and has

Overturning Tables

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

Mark Sheridan

Language for God in Patristic Tradition

Wrestling with Biblical Anthropomorphism

Criticism of myth in the Bible is not a modern problem

Its roots go back to the earliest Christ ian theologians and

before them to ancient Greek and Jewish thinkers The

dilemma posed by texts that ascribe human characteristics

and emotions to the divine is a perennial problem and we

have much to learn from the ancient attempts to address it

Mark Sheridan provides a theological and historical

analysis of the patrist ic interpretation of Scripturersquos

anthropomorphic and anthropopathic language for God

Rather than reject the Bible as mere stories ancient Jewish

and Christian theologians read these texts allegorically or

theologically in order to discover the truth contained within

them They recognized that an edifying and appropriate

interpretation of these stories required that one start from

the understanding that ldquoGod is not a human beingrdquo (Num

2319) Sheridan brings the patristic tradition into conversa-

tion with modern interpreters to show the abiding signifi-

cance of its theological interpretation for today

This work is a landmark resource for students of ancient

Christian theology Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in

its analysis it demonstrates that those engaged in theo-logical interpretation of Scripture have much to gain from

studying their forebears in the faith

Mark Sheridan is a Benedictine monk of Dormition

Abbey in Jerusalem and professor emeritus in the Faculty of

Theology of the Pontificio Ateneo S Anselmo Rome where

he served as dean of the Faculty of Theology (1998ndash2005)

and Rector Magnificus (2005ndash2009) of the Athenaeum

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

London) is professor of theological studies at Covenant

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton Ontario where he

teaches courses on pastoral ministry mission the church

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

that enlarge and correct a mistaken story Is the real Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

Mark Sheridan

Language for God in Patristic Tradition

Wrestling with Biblical Anthropomorphism

Criticism of myth in the Bible is not a modern problem

Its roots go back to the earliest Christ ian theologians and

before them to ancient Greek and Jewish thinkers The

dilemma posed by texts that ascribe human characteristics

and emotions to the divine is a perennial problem and we

have much to learn from the ancient attempts to address it

Mark Sheridan provides a theological and historical

analysis of the patrist ic interpretation of Scripturersquos

anthropomorphic and anthropopathic language for God

Rather than reject the Bible as mere stories ancient Jewish

and Christian theologians read these texts allegorically or

theologically in order to discover the truth contained within

them They recognized that an edifying and appropriate

interpretation of these stories required that one start from

the understanding that ldquoGod is not a human beingrdquo (Num

2319) Sheridan brings the patristic tradition into conversa-

tion with modern interpreters to show the abiding signifi-

cance of its theological interpretation for today

This work is a landmark resource for students of ancient

Christian theology Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in

its analysis it demonstrates that those engaged in theo-logical interpretation of Scripture have much to gain from

studying their forebears in the faith

Mark Sheridan is a Benedictine monk of Dormition

Abbey in Jerusalem and professor emeritus in the Faculty of

Theology of the Pontificio Ateneo S Anselmo Rome where

he served as dean of the Faculty of Theology (1998ndash2005)

and Rector Magnificus (2005ndash2009) of the Athenaeum

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

Lee Beach

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

of history and chair of the history department at Bethel

Edited by Ben Witherington III and Todd D Still

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

Theological Seminary

Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament

Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

that enlarge and correct a mistaken story Is the real Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

Hidden But Now Revealed

A Biblical Theology of Mystery

When reading through the Bible it is impossible to ignore

the troubling fact that Israel and its leadersmdashand even Jesusrsquo

own disciplesmdashseem unable to fully grasp the messianic

identity and climactic mission of Jesus If his true deity

death resurrection and role in the establishment of Godrsquos

eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and

in his own teachings how could the leading biblical scholars

of their time miss it

This book explores the biblical conception of mystery as

an initial partially hidden revelation that is subsequently

more fully revealed Exploring all the occurrences of the

term mystery in the New Testament and the topics found

in conjunction with them this work sharpens our under-

standing of how the Old Testament relates to the New and

explores topics such as kingdom crucifixion the relation-

ship between Jews and Gentiles and more

G K Beale (PhD University of Cambridge) holds the

J Gresham Machen Chair of New Testament at Westminster

Theological Seminary His books include The Book of Revela-

tion (New International Greek Testament Commentary) 1-2

Thessalonians (The IVP New Testament Commentary Series)

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Lee Beach

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton Ontario where he

teaches courses on pastoral ministry mission the church

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton Ontario where he

teaches courses on pastoral ministry mission the church

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

of the Reformation with commentary from Lutheran

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

David Skeel ( JD University of Virginia) is the S Samuel

Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Penn-sylvania Law School He is the author of The New Financial

Deal Icarus in the Boardroom and Debtrsquos Dominion and has

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

Edited by Ben Witherington III and Todd D Still

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

Theological Seminary

Todd D Still (PhD University of Glasgow) is William M

Hinson Professor of Christian Scriptures in the George W

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

David Skeel ( JD University of Virginia) is the S Samuel

Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Penn-sylvania Law School He is the author of The New Financial

Deal Icarus in the Boardroom and Debtrsquos Dominion and has

Overturning Tables

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

Sanctification

Explorations in Theology and Practice

ldquoThis book draws wisely from the tradition engages

patiently with the scriptural testimony and tries to

think clearly and compell ingly for the church todayrdquo

Michael Allen Knox Theological Seminary

With so much recent interest in concepts of election and

justification the question of holiness can often seem to

be of secondary importance The essays in this volume

which come out of the 2011 Edinburgh Dogmatics Confer-

ence address this dilemma through biblical historical andpastoral explorations of sanctification The contributors sink

their teeth into positions like the ldquoworksrdquo mentality or ldquo justi-

fication by faith alonerdquo and posit stronger biblical views of

grace and holiness considering key topics such as the image

of God perfection union with Christ Christian ethics and

suffering This is a resource for both church and academy

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

at the center the editors of this series perform a great

service for the churchrdquo

Mark A Noll University of Notre Dame

berg and Richard Taverner Peter Walpot and Johannes

Brenz Dirk Philips and Franccedilois Lambert and many others

German Lutherans Dutch Anabaptists French and Swiss

Reformed Moravian radicals English Puritans and more

access and appearing here in English for the first time

Much of the commentary is drawn from published

sermons and reflects pastoral concerns It is an invitation toparticipate in the churchrsquos renewed understanding of and

insights into the Gospel of Luke

of passages collected from the authoritative insights of the

churchrsquos great exegetes In each volume you will find the

biblical text in English alongside the insights of the leaders

of the Reformation with commentary from Lutheran

Reformed Anglican Anabaptist and even reform-minded

Catholic thinkers who all shared a commitment to the

faithful exposition of Scripture

Christopher J H Wright

Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament

(Second Edition)

Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

that enlarge and correct a mistaken story Is the real Jesus

entangled in a web of the churchrsquos Scripture awaiting libera-

tion To answer these questions we need to know what story

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

Christopher J H Wright (PhD University of

Cambridge) taught Old Testament in India (1983ndash1988) at

Union Biblical Seminary and then at All Nations Christian

College a missionary training school in England where he

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Penn-sylvania Law School He is the author of The New Financial

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

Kevin Diller

Theologyrsquos Epistemological Dilemma

How Karl Barth and Alvin Plantinga Provide a

Unified Response

The problem of faith and reason is as old as Christianity

itself Todayrsquos philosophical scientific and historical

challenges make the epistemic problem inescapable for

believers Can faith justify its claims Does faith give us

confidence in the truth Is believing with certainty a virtue

or a vice

Kevin Diller addresses this problem by drawing on two of

the most significant responses in recent Christian thought

Karl Barthrsquos theology of revelation and Alv in Plantingarsquos

epistemology of Christian belief This will str ike many as

unlikely given the common stereotypes of both thinkers

Contrary to widespread misunderstanding Diller offers

a reading of both as complementary to each other Barth

provides what Plantinga lacks in theological depth while

Plantinga provides what Barth lacks in philosophical clarity

Diller presents a unified BarthPlantinga proposal for theo-

logical epistemology capable of responding without anxiety

to the questions that face believers today

Kevin Diller (PhD University of St Andrews) is associateprofessor of philosophy and religion at Taylor University in

Upland Indiana He holds graduate degrees from Princeton

Theological Seminary and Calvin Theological Seminary and

completed postdoctoral work at the University of Notre Dame

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

The Church in Exile

Living in Hope After Christendom

The people of God throughout history have been a people

of exile and diaspora Whether under the Assyrians

Babylonians Greeks or Romans the people chosen by God

have had to learn how to be a holy people in alien lands and

under foreign rule

For much of its history however the Christian church

lived with the sense of being at home in the world with

considerable influence and power That age of Christendom

is now over and as Lee Beach demonstrates this is some-

thing for which the church should be grateful The ldquopeacerdquo

of Christendom was a false one and there is no comfortable

normalcy to which we can or should return

Drawing on a close engagement with Old Testament and

New Testament texts The Church in Exile offers a biblical and

practical theology for the church in a post-Christian age

Beach helps the people of God today to develop a hopeful

and prophetic imagination a theology responsive to its

context and an exil ic identity marked by faithfulness to

Godrsquos mission in the world

Lee Beach (PhD McMaster Divinity College) is assistant

professor of Christian ministry director of ministry forma-

tion and Garbutt F Smith Chair of Ministry Formation at

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

Edited by Ben Witherington III and Todd D Still

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

Theological Seminary

Todd D Still (PhD University of Glasgow) is William M

Hinson Professor of Christian Scriptures in the George W

biblical text in English alongside the insights of the leaders

of the Reformation with commentary from Lutheran

Reformed Anglican Anabaptist and even reform-minded

Catholic thinkers who all shared a commitment to the

faithful exposition of Scripture

Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament

Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

that enlarge and correct a mistaken story Is the real Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

David Skeel makes a fresh case for the explanatory power of

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

The conference begins with the

conviction that the Christian

doctrine of the image of God offers truth

and health in a culture inundated with

distorted images The conference will

explore our understanding of the imago

as informed by Scripture tradition and

doctrine How in our time and place

might our understanding of what it means

to be created in the divine image be

challenged or distorted In dealing with

this situation what are the corrective

and constructive resources available

in the Christian faith How can the

Christian doctrine of the imago inform

and strengthen our witness in this image

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

Christopher Gehrz (PhD Yale University) is professor

of history and chair of the history department at Bethel

University in St Paul Minnesota where he coordinates the

Christianity and Western Culture program He is also the

coeditor of The Pietist Impulse in Christianity

Edited by Ben Witherington III and Todd D Still

The Acts of the Apostles

A Newly Discovered Commentary

ldquoThe discovery of hitherto unknown exegetical

works by J B Lightfoot is a rare gift full of potential

for fresh insight both about the man himself and

as he would have wished about texts which he knew

so well and which themselves express the heart of

the gospelrdquo

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

Theological Seminary

Todd D Still (PhD University of Glasgow) is William M

Hinson Professor of Christian Scriptures in the George W

of the Reformation with commentary from Lutheran

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

The Pietist Vision of Christian

Higher Education

Forming Whole and Holy Persons

Pietism has long been sidelined 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 even though from the begin-

ning Pietism ldquowas intimately bound up with educationrdquo

according to Diarmaid MacCulloch In this groundbreaking

volume scholars associated with the Pietist tradition break

the silence and reflect on the distinctively Pietist approachto education

Christopher Gehrz (PhD Yale University) is professor

of history and chair of the history department at Bethel

so well and which themselves express the heart of

N T Wright former bishop of Durham

In the spring of 2013 Ben Witherington III discovered

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

scholar J B Lightfoot in the Durham Cathedral Library

Among the many pages of this historical and theological

gold mine were two sets of lecture notes on the Acts of the

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

J B Lightfoot (1828ndash1889) was an English theologian

canon of St Paulrsquos Cathedral and bishop of Durham

Ben Witherington III (PhD University of Durham) is

Professor of New Testament for Doctoral Studies at Asbury

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

hundreds of pages of biblical commentary by acclaimed

Apostles Together they amount to a richly detailed albeit

unfinished commentary on Acts 1ndash21 Previously unpub-

lished these commentary notes reveal a relevant and signifi-

cant resource for the church today from a scholar well ahead

of his time one of the great minds of his or any generation

To Everyone an Answer

A Case for the Christian Worldview

In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to

religious pluralism the Christian worldview faces sophis-

ticated and aggressive opposition A prior commitment to

diversity with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook

has meant for skeptics critics and even many Christians

that whatever Christianity is it cannot be exclusively true or

salvific

What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative

comprehensive Christian response Point by point argu-

ment by argument the Christian faith must be effectively

presented and defended To Everyone an Answer A Case for the

Christian Worldview offers such a response

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

True Paradox

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

The complexity of the contemporary world is sometimes

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

Christopher J H Wright

Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament

Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken

notion of Jesus Should we listen to other gospels of Jesus

Jesus claimed for himself Wright traces the life of Christ

as it is illuminated by the Old Testament while describing

Godrsquos design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus

Cambridge) taught Old Testament in India (1983ndash1988) at

Union Biblical Seminary and then at All Nations Christian

College a missionary training school in England where he

Overturning Tables

Freeing Missions from the Christian-Industrial Complex

Much of Christian ministry has been shaped to operate not

according to the witness of the Scriptures but according to

the values of the free market The mission of the church

is being held back by the business container into which we

have placed the gospel Here Bessenecker shows through

stories and analysis that the mission of God reaches well

beyond the grasp of the free market and if we are willing

to reach as well we will see God do amazing things as the

world sees the gospel in its fullest sense

Scott A Bessenecker is associate director for missions

for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of several

books including The New Friars The Emerging Movement

Serving the Worldrsquos Poor He sends thousands of students each

year on short-term mission experiences around the world

How Christianity Makes Sense of Our Complex World

seen as an embarrassment for Christianity But law professor

Christianity for puzzles such as our capacity for idea making

our experience of beauty and suf fering and our inability to

create a just social order We need not deny the complexi-

ties of life but the paradoxes of our existence can lead us to

believe that the existence of God could make sense of it all
