The Lost World of Adam and Eve

Genesis 2–3 and the Human Origins Debate

”Scholarly and readable, the text seen through Near

Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into

the question of human origins.”

Denis Alexander, author, Creation or Evolution:

Do We Have to Choose?

For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly

through the corridors of art, literature and theology . But for

many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously

the authority of Scripture, insisting on a “literal” under-

standing of Genesis 2–3 looks painfully like a “tear here”

strip between faith and science .

How can Christians of good faith move forward? Who were

the historical Adam and Eve? In what cultural code was this

couple, this garden, this serpent portrayed? With twenty-one

propositions, John Walton now backlights this most elemental

story with the ancient world of the biblical author, giving us the

context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward .

Additionally, an illuminating excursus by N . T . Wright places

Adam in the implied narrative of Paul’s theology .

John H. Walton (PhD, Hebrew union College) is

professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Grad-

uate School . His books include The Lost World of Scripture, The

Lost World of Genesis One, Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the

Old Testament, The NIV Application Commentary: Genesis and

The IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament .

Rejoicing in Christ

”Reeves shows that for believers, our life is from

Christ, and Christ is our life! His account of Christian

doctrine about Jesus is complimented with a treasure

trove of historical artwork depicting Jesus, stimu-

lating the mind as well as the heart.”

Michael F. Bird, lecturer in Theology at Ridley,

Melbourne, Australia

”This is how to write Christology: biblical, theological,

historical, pastoral and spiritual! Theology at its best

from one of today’s best theologians.”

Simon Ponsonby, pastor of Theology,

St Aldate’s Church, Oxford

If we want to know who God is, the best thing we can do is

look at Christ . If we want to live the life to which God calls

us, we look to Christ . In Jesus we see the true meaning of the

love, power, wisdom, justice, peace, care and majesty of God .

Michael Reeves, author of Delighting in the Trinity, opens

to readers the glory and wonder of Christ, offering a bigger

and more exciting picture than many have imagined . Jesus

didn’t just bring us the good news . He is the good news .

Reeves helps us celebrate who Christ is, his work on earth,

his death and resurrection, his anticipated return and how

we share in his life .

In an age beckoning us to look at ourselves, Michael

Reeves calls us to look at Christ . As we focus our hearts on

him, we see how he is our life, our righteousness, our holi-

ness and our hope .

A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion

“Fully true to the historical-cultural setting of the

early first-century Roman empire, this story not only

makes the New Testament world come alive but it

creates one very plausible scenario of the career and

family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 8:5-13

and Luke 7:1-10.”

Craig L. Blomberg, Denver Seminary

Enter a world of warfare and treachery, of duty and honor,

of love and loyalty, interwoven with the inner workings of a

Roman centurion’s household . And then trace it as the road

curves toward little Capernaum .

Follow the story of Appius, a proud centurion, and

Tullus, his scribe and slave . From a battle with the Parthians,

through a tragic personal crisis, to the gladiator arena at

Caesarea Maritima, their tale finally leads to the backwater

village of Capernaum on the shores of Galilee . There, in

a culture not their own and during a week they will never

forget, they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth .

In entertaining historical fiction, this fast-paced account

gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels .

Splashed with informative sidebars and images, we capture a

view of Jesus’ world from the outer framework looking in .

Gary M. Burge (PhD, university of Aberdeen) is professor

of New Testament at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois .

Among his many published books are Theology Questions

Everyone Asks (with coeditor David Lauber), The Baker Illus-

John Goldingay

Do We Need the New Testament?

Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself

Do we need the Old Testament? That’s a familiar question,

often asked . But as an Old Testament scholar, John Gold-

ingay turns that question on its head: Do we need the New

Testament?

What’s new about the New Testament? After all, the Old

Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew .

Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God . Do we need anything

more? And what happens when we begin to look at the Old

Testament, the First Testament, not as a deficient old work in

need of a christological makeover, but as a rich and splendid

revelation of God’s faithfulness to Israel and the world?

In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book,

Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety

of angles . under his expert hand, each facet unfolds the

surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us

to recalibrate our perspective on it .

John Goldingay (PhD, university of Nottingham; DD,

Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan

Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological

Seminary . His books include The Theology of the Book of Isaiah,

Key Questions about Interpretation, Models for Scripture and

commentaries on Psalms, Isaiah and Daniel . He has also

authored the three-volume Old Testament Theology and the

seventeen-volume Old Testament For Everyone series .

Goldingay also serves in pastoral ministry as an associate

pastor at St . Barnabas Episcopal Church, Pasadena . He

holds membership in the Society of Biblical Literature and

the Society for Old Testament Study, and serves on the Task

Force on Biblical Interpretation in the Anglican Commu-

nion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew

Bible/Old Testament Studies .

Mapping Apologetics

Comparing Contemporary Approaches

”The most complete and best analysis to date of my

overall apologetic approach.”

John Warwick Montgomery, Concordia University

Everyone believes something . But how and why do people

believe? What counts as evidence? How much can be

assumed or believed by faith alone?

In this comprehensive survey, Brian Morley provides an

overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they

differ . He explores the historical and philosophical under-

pinnings of key figures and major schools of thought, from

the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the eviden-

tialism of Gary Habermas . Moving beyond theory, Morley

also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in

practical terms, covering the complexities of apologetics

in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist . Evenhanded

and respectful of each contribution, this book provides the

reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith .

Brian K. Morley (PhD, Claremont university) is professor

of philosophy and apologetics at the Master’s College in

Santa Clarita, California . He is the author of God in the

Shadows: Evil in God’s World and has been a member of the

Evangelical Theological Society, the Evangelical Philosoph-

ical Society and the Society of Christian Philosophers .

Renewing Moral Theology

Christian Ethics as Action, Character and Grace

While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency,

Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral

grammar of their faith . The need to reengage the deep-

down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom

been more urgent .

Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and

Anglican traditions . The tradition of theological ethics,

influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas, offers a distinct

emphasis on the virtues and character formation . Now

Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition

with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and

the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character, while also

laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason

and ethical living .

Christians—whether of Anglican, Catholic or other

traditions—interested in vigorously retrieving a great moral

heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflec-

tion and discipleship .

Daniel A. Westberg (DPhil, Oxford university) is

professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House, a

seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah, Wisconsin .

He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries,

and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in

the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city

parishes . He also taught ethics at the university of Virginia

for eight years .

Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason: Action,

Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals

such as The Anglican Theological Review, The Thomist and

New Blackfriars, as well as several short articles in The New

Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology .

Theology as Retrieval

Receiving the Past, Renewing the Church

”Thinking in the present is often animated, enriched

and healed by thinking through the past; this book

tells its readers why and how this is so.”

John Webster, professor of divinity,

University of St Andrews

”Tradition is the living faith of the dead.” —Jaroslav Pelikan

The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode

of theological discernment, a cultivated habit of thought . It

views the doctrines, practices and resonant realities of the

Christian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age . This move-

ment across the church looks back in order to move forward .

David Buschart and kent Eilers survey this varied move-

ment and identify six areas where the impulse and practice

of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive: the

interpretation of Scripture, the articulation of theology,

the practices of worship, the disciplines of spirituality, the

modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical

Orthodoxy . In each area they offer a wide-angle view before

taking a close look at representative examples in order to

give finer texture to the discussion . More than a survey and

mapping of the terrain, Theology As Retrieval inspires reflec-

tion, practice and hope .

W. David Buschart (PhD, Drew university) is associate

dean and professor of theology and historical studies at

Denver Seminary . He is the author of Exploring Protestant

Traditions: An Invitation to Theological Hospitality and is coed-

itor of and a contributor to Scholarship, Sacraments, and Service .

Kent D. Eilers (PhD, king’s College, university of

Christian Renewal in the Community of Faith

While the age of the Holy Spirit began with Pentecost, the

twentieth century has seen an explosion in the Spirit’s work

through the remarkable growth of Pentecostalism and the

changing face of global Christianity . But pneumatology too

often remains a subject of misunderstanding and neglect .

These essays, gathered from the 2014 Wheaton Theology

Conference, provide an ecumenical exploration of the Holy

Spirit’s person and work in biblical, historical, doctrinal and

practical perspective .

Saying Is Believing

The Necessity of Testimony in Adolescent

Spiritual Development

”Saying Is Believing establishes Amanda Drury as

a new and compelling voice in practical theology, a

pacesetter for a generation of scholars convinced

that the way we form young people’s faith profoundly

affects our own.”

Kenda Creasy Dean, Princeton Theological Seminary

”It won’t take more than a few chapters to reveal

that Mandy is one of the most profound, accessible,

original voices ever to speak into the conversation

about youth ministry.”

Mark DeVries, author of Sustainable Youth Ministry

The idea of giving one’s testimony often evokes summer

church camps, evangelistic revivals, mission trips and

baptisms . But what if our view of sharing a testimony of faith

is all wrong?

According to Amanda Drury, testimony is not merely

about describing something that happened in the past . It is

a practice that forms our present and future identity . Testi-

mony changes us, and without it we risk having a stunted

and stale faith .

Drawing on work in sociology, psychology and theology,

Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essen-

tial practice for Christian spiritual formation, especially for

adolescents who are in the process of developing their iden-

tity . Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adoles-

cents to articulate their religious beliefs . Now more than

ever, churches need to recover the practice of testimony as

an integral part of communal worship .

Amanda Hontz Drury (PhD, Princeton Theological

Seminary) has been in youth ministry for almost fifteen

years . She is assistant professor of practical theology

at Indiana Wesleyan university and is ordained in the

Wesleyan Church .

Gary Tyra

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness

Ethics and Christian Discipleship

Christianity is in a state of moral crisis .

Even though people make moral decisions every day,

many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these

decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a

morally faithful life . Compared to the people around them,

there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go

about making moral choices .

As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades

of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching

ethics to undergraduates, Gary Tyra approaches the topic

with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and

encouraging an “everyday” moral faithfulness . Tyra argues

that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered,

Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in

any moral situation . Moral faithfulness follows from a life of

Christian discipleship .

In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion,

Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign

of hope for the future .

Gary Tyra (DMin, Fuller Theological Seminary) is

professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard

university . Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission,

Christ’s Empowering Presence, A Missional Orthodoxy, Beyond the

Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism . Tyra has over twenty-five years

of pastoral experience including his last position as senior

pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church .

Foreword by David J . Lose

The Mission of Preaching

Equipping the Community for Faithful Witness

”Patrick Johnson focuses the continuing investigation

of the missional church on the theology and practice

of preaching. . . . Combining scholarship and pastoral

passion, he is profoundly broadening and deepening

the exploration of the missional church with this

pioneering work.”

Darrell L. Guder, Henry Winters Luce Professor of

Missional and Ecumenical Theology,

Princeton Theological Seminary

We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology,

missional leadership and missional church planting . But

what about missional preaching?

Now that the church in the West lives within a post-

Christendom context, how should preaching look different?

What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom

but are no longer relevant for a missionary church?

In The Mission of Preaching, Patrick Johnson develops the

first missional homiletic, a model for preaching deter-

mined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and

Western culture . Mobilizing the latest resources in homilet-

ical theory and missional theology, he argues that preaching

is a major form of the church’s witness to Jesus Christ, equip-

ping the congregation for its witness to the world .

Patrick W. T. Johnson (PhD, Princeton Theological

Seminary) is pastor of Frenchtown Presbyterian Church in

Frenchtown, New Jersey, and adjunct professor at Princeton

Theological Seminary . He also serves as a PCuSA teaching

elder and as a preaching consultant . He received his PhD in

practical theology with a concentration in homiletics, and

continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas

of speech, worship, missional theology and homiletics .

Interpreting the Prophets

Reading, Understanding and Preaching from the

Worlds of the Prophets

”If the Prophets seem confusing and irrelevant to

certain readers . . . and if the church wants a user-

friendly corrective to the misunderstanding—this is it.

. . . Every professor hoping students will learn to inter-

pret the Prophets correctly ought to assign this book.”

D. Brent Sandy, author of

Plowshares and Pruning Hooks

”[Chalmers] has assimilated a vast and complex range

of materials from the Old Testament and its world,

and from the scholarly world, and out of them has

formulated a coherent and intelligible account of the

Prophets for his readers. And it all serves a passion to

help people read the Prophets for themselves.”

John Goldingay, Fuller Theological Seminary

The prophetic books are some of the most captivating and

fascinating texts of the Old Testament, but they are also

some of the most misunderstood . Interpreting the Prophets

equips the reader with the knowledge and skills they need to

interpret the Prophets in a faithful and accurate fashion .

Beginning with the nature of the prophetic role and

prophetic books in Israel, Old Testament scholar Aaron

Chalmers leads the reader through the various “worlds”

of Israel’s prophets—historical, social, theological and

rhetorical—providing the basic contextual and background

information needed both for sound and sensible exegesis

and for sensitive interpretation and application for today .

He concludes with a helpful chapter giving guidelines for

preaching from the Prophets—including advice on choosing

the texts, making appropriate analogies, and the potential

problems and common pitfalls to avoid .

Aaron Chalmers (PhD, Flinders university) is head of

the School of Ministry, Theology and Culture at Tabor

Adelaide, a multidenominational, evangelical college in

Adelaide, Australia . He teaches in the field of Old Testa-

ment and hermeneutics and is passionate about helping

Christians engage with the Hebrew Scriptures . He is the

author of Exploring the Religion of Ancient Israel: Prophet,

Priest, Sage and People .

(Third Edition)

Applying Christian Ethics in Economics

”Keying the book to the leading textbooks, John

Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for

students and teachers of introductory economics

courses—though the book merits study outside the

classroom as well.”

Kenneth G. Elzinga, professor of economics,

University of Virginia

”The book takes seriously the authority of Scripture

in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of

economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal-

lenging manner.”

Edd Noell, professor of economics and business,

Westmont College

Self-interest, economic efficiency and private property rights

are among the most basic assumptions of market economics .

But can an economic theory built on these assumptions

alone provide adequate insight into human nature, motiva-

tion and ultimate goals to guide our economic life?

John Stapleford says no, along with those economists who

recognize the limits of their discipline . He insightfully shows

us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with

economic life and analysis . Writing from a Christian ethical

perspective, he interacts with seven standard introductory

economics texts, exploring the moral challenges embedded

in various macro-, micro- and international economic theo-

ries and outlining a faithful response to them .

The third edition includes two new chapters on

economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded

discussions of entitlements, government debt, healthcare

reform and immigration reform .

John E. Stapleford (PhD, university of Delaware) is

president of the Caesar Rodney Institute, an education

nonprofit . He is principle in DECON First and professor

emeritus with Eastern university . Previously he was the

director of the Bureau of Economic Research at the univer-

sity of Delaware and founder of the Delaware Small Business

Development Center . He has been published in Faith &

Faith, Freedom and the Spirit

The Economic Trinity in Barth, Torrance and

Contemporary Theology

”Paul Molnar is one of the outstanding theologians of

his generation. . . . This book is a magisterial interpre-

tation of Barth and Torrance on the Trinity in relation

to election and the incarnation.”

George Hunsinger, Princeton Theological Seminary

Distinguished scholar Paul Molnar adds to his previous work

Divine Freedom and the Doctrine of the Immanent Trinity to help

us think more accurately about the economic Trinity and

about divine and human interaction in the sphere of faith

and knowledge within history . Molnar relies on the thinking

of karl Barth and Thomas F . Torrance in dialogue with

other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant)

about divine and human freedom .

Powerfully argued and meticulously documented,

Molnar’s magisterial study begins with an extensive discus-

sion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incar-

nate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit . He considers

the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and

discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology,

expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith

relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the

economy of grace .

Paul D. Molnar (PhD, Fordham university) is professor

of systematic theology at St . John’s university in Queens,

New York . He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection,

Karl Barth and the Theology of the Lord’s Supper and Thomas F.

Torrance: Theologian of the Trinity, and has been published in

Bound for the Promised Land

The Land Promise in God’s Redemptive Plan

“[Martin’s] synthesis of the land promises, kingdom

promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and

sometimes moving.”

From the preface by D. A. Carson

Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with

creation, where humans live in the presence of their Lord,

so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even

more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell

with the Lord and his Christ .

The historical development between the beginning and

the end is crucial, for the journey proceeds through the

land promised to Abraham . The Promised Land is the place

where God’s people will once again live under his lordship

and experience his blessed presence .

In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical

Theology series, Oren Martin demonstrates how the land

promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost

in Eden, also serving as a type throughout Israel’s history

that anticipates the even greater land that will result from

the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new

creation for eternity .

Oren R. Martin (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological

Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at

Boyce College at Southern Seminary . Martin has written

articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical

Theological Society, Trinity Journal, the Journal for Biblical

Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition .

Cyril of Alexandria

Translated by David R . Maxwell

Edited by Joel C . Elowsky

Commentary on John, Volume 2

Cyril of Alexandria (ca . 378–444), one of the most brilliant

representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition,

is best known for championing the term Theotokos (God-

bearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople . Cyril’s

great Commentary on John, offered here in the Ancient Chris-

tian Texts series in two volumes, predates the Nestorian

controversy and focuses its theological firepower against

Arianism . The commentary, addressed to catechists, displays

Cyril’s breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible

and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers prac-

tical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of God’s

salvation .

David R . Maxwell provides readers with the first

completely fresh English translation of the text since the

nineteenth century . It rests on Pusey’s critical edition of

the Greek text and displays Cyril’s profound theological

interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic

tradition that preceded him . Today’s readers will find the

commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyril’s

approach to Scripture .

David R. Maxwell (PhD, university of Notre Dame) is

associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia

Seminary in St . Louis, Missouri . An ordained minister in

the Lutheran Church and a trained organist, Maxwell has

also done work on the theological symbolism of J . S . Bach’s

Joel C. Elowsky (PhD, Drew university) is associate

Ancient Christian Texts series .

The Person and Life of Christ

”No other book I know in English does what this

superb volume does in presenting with absolute

clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal

church on the person and work of Christ, bringing

together biblical, patristic and Reformation perspec-

tives in a rich harmony. . . . This book is a wonderful

legacy from one of the very greatest of English-

language systematic theologians.”

Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury

The late Thomas F . Torrance has been called “the greatest

Reformed theologian since karl Barth” and “the greatest

British theologian of the twentieth century” by prominent

voices in the academy . His work has profoundly shaped

contemporary theology in the English-speaking world .

This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrance’s

lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on

Christology at New College, Edinburgh, from 1952 to 1978 .

In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight

Torrance’s distinctive belief that the object of our theolog-

ical study—Jesus Christ—actively gives himself to us in order

that we may know him .

Thomas F. Torrance (1913–2007) occupied the chair

of Christian dogmatics at the university of Edinburgh for

twenty-seven years . He was the recipient of the Templeton

Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978, and he served as

moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the

Scottish Journal of Theology .

Robert T. Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh univer-

sity . As T . F . Torrance’s nephew, Walker has gained an inti-

mate understanding of Torrance’s theology, studying under

him and hearing these lectures given in person .

New Testament Theology

Many Witnesses, One Gospel

”This New Testament theology should be regarded as

today’s standard in the field.”

David M. Scholer, Fuller Theological Seminary

Here is a New Testament theology that does not succumb to

the fashion of settling for an irreconcilable diversity of New

Testament voices but argues that “a synthetic New Testament

theology” is a real possibility . Beginning with the Gospels

and Acts, proceeding to each of Paul’s letters, focusing then

on the Johannine literature and finally looking at Hebrews

and the remaining general epistles, Marshall repeatedly

stops to assess the view, building up a composite synthesis of

the unified theological voice of the New Testament .

I. Howard Marshall (PhD, university of Aberdeen) is

emeritus professor of New Testament exegesis and honorary

research professor at the university of Aberdeen . He has

written commentaries on Luke, Acts, 1–2 Thessalonians, the

Pastoral Epistles, 1 Peter and 1–3 John, and is coauthor of

Exploring the New Testament .

The Song of Songs

An Introduction and Commentary

This Old Testament book, “the best of songs”, has fasci-

nated and perplexed interpreters for centuries . We hear the

passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by

erotic imagery, but whose love is described? Is it a couple’s

love for each other, God’s love for his people, or a poem that

speaks to love in all its dimensions?

Iain Duguid’s Tyndale Old Testament Commentary

explains how the Song is designed to show us an ideal-

ized picture of married love, in the context of a fallen and

broken world . It also convicts us of how far short of this

perfection we fall, both as humans and as lovers, and drives

us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband,

Jesus Christ .

Series updates include discoveries from the Ancient Near

East, a key emphasis on linguistics and a revised exegetical

format . This volume includes introduction, translation,

analysis and section-by-section commentary, with each

section of scriptural text including segments on context,

comment and meaning .

Iain M. Duguid (PhD, university of Cambridge) is

professor of Old Testament at Grove City College and pastor

of Christ Presbyterian Church in Grove City, Pennsylvania .

He has also served as a missionary in Liberia, taught at

James (Second Edition)

The genius of the letter of James lies in its powerfully simple

call for repentance, for action, for a consistent Christian life-

style . In this revised commentary Douglas Moo allows James’s

words to cut through our theological debates, our personal

preconceptions, our spiritual malaise and return us to an

invigorating, transforming Christianity . This second edition

in the storied Tyndale New Testament Commentary series

includes an updated and expanded introduction, analysis

and section-by-section commentary of the book of James .

“The Bible is being translated, commented on, read,

studied, preached and analyzed as never before . But it is

questionable whether it is being obeyed to a comparable

degree,” says Moo in the preface . “All this suggests that the

message of James is one that we all need to hear—and obey .”

Written for the educated layperson while also helpful to

pastors and scholars, the updated volume takes into account

new knowledge, critical questions, literary context and Bible

translations .

Douglas J. Moo (PhD, university of St Andrews) is the

kenneth T . Wessner Professor of New Testament at Wheaton

College . He has written numerous New Testament commen-

taries for the NIV Application Commentary series and the

Anthony R . Petterson

Haggai, Zechariah & Malachi

The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai, zechariah and

Malachi are set in times of great adversity . God’s people

were minnows in the vast Persian Empire, and the promises

of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jeru-

salem seemed far from their experience . These books, from

beginning to end, restate God’s intention to establish his

glorious kingdom, and explain what this means for the lives

of his people .

For Haggai and zechariah, the immediate challenge was

to rebuild the temple in view of God’s return . For Malachi,

the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had

infected the people’s attitudes towards God, and how this

needed to change in view of future judgment . God used

each of these prophets to remind the people of the true

king and to reorder their lives and their community in the

light of the reality of his coming kingdom .

In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary, Anthony

Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic

books, setting them in their wider biblical-theological

context . He shows the connections between the post-exilic

world and our own, and explains how these books contain a

vital message for the church today, living in the gap between

promise and reality .

Anthony R. Petterson is lecturer in Old Testament and

Hebrew at Morling College, New South Wales, Australia .

Previously he served as pastor of Hornsby Heights Baptist

Church, Sydney, and associate pastor of Grosvenor Road

Baptist Church, Dublin . He is the author of Behold Your King:

The Hope for the House of David in the Book of Zechariah, and

study notes on Haggai and zechariah for a new edition of

the NIV Study Bible .

N . T . Wright

The Challenge of Jesus

Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is

”Wright has produced a work of frankly evangelical

faith with strong historical integrity, because both are

necessary for serious study, uncomfortable as that

may be. . . . A refreshing and inspiring read for those

who take both conservative faith and historical schol-

arship seriously.”

Library Journal, January 2000

Today a renewed and vigorous scholarly quest for the

historical Jesus is underway . Now this paperback edition of

N . T . Wright’s classic work contains even more insight with

an all-new introduction by the author .

Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take

seriously the study of the historical Jesus . He writes, “Many

Christians have been, frankly, sloppy in their thinking and

talking about Jesus, and hence, sadly, in their praying and

in their practice of discipleship . We cannot assume that by

saying the word Jesus, still less the word Christ, we are auto-

matically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked

in first-century Palestine .”

The Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged challenge: to

grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the

Palestinian world of the first century, and to follow Jesus

more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twenty-

first century .

N. T. Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and

popular books, including Jesus and the Victory of God, Simply

Christian, The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said .

His N . T . Wright For Everyone Series includes commentaries

covering the entire New Testament .

Formerly bishop of Durham in England, Wright is

research professor of New Testament and early Christianity

at the university of St Andrews in Scotland . He was formerly

canon theologian of Westminster Abbey and dean of Lich-

field Cathedral . He also taught New Testament studies for

twenty years at Cambridge, McGill and Oxford universities .

Debra Hirsch

Foreword by Gabe Lyons

Redeeming Sex

Naked Conversations About Sexuality and Spirituality

“If you are willing to invest the time to listen—really

listen—to what Deb Hirsch is saying about the vexing

and complex nature of human sexuality, you won’t

fail to be moved by her allegiance to radical grace, her

trust in the potency of genuine hospitality and her

unyielding confidence in the power of God to recon-

cile, repair and renew us all.”

Michael Frost, author of Incarnate and Exiles

Nothing has exposed the gap between the church and

the broader society quite like the cultural argument over

sexuality . Relationships, identities, orientations and even

concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the

church and the world . In the fog of war and the cloud of

conflict, it’s increasingly hard to see our way clearly .

There is hope, however . Debra Hirsch has seen it

firsthand—in meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT

friends and neighbors, in Christian fellowships, and in move-

ments that have held a concern for people created in God’s

image and a high view of the Bible’s teaching on sexuality in

constructive tension . When you consider the world from the

perspective of God’s kingdom mission, it turns out the smoke

clears and a redemptive imagination takes root .

Discover a holistic, biblical vision of sex and gender that

honors God and offers good news to the world .

Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministries among

young adults, the poor and the LGBT community for

over twenty years . She is a minister of an eclectic bunch

of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los

Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed: Reactivating a Missional

Form of Discipleship (with Alan Hirsch) . She also serves on the

leadership team of the Forge Missions Training Network and

on the steering team for the Missio Alliance .

Noel Castellanos

Foreword by John Perkins, Wayne Gordon

Where the Cross Meets the Street

What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at

the Center

“Noel is a leader of the times and a champion of the

practitioner. This book takes twenty-five plus years

of experience and gives us lessons and testimony

to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it

relevant today.”

Leroy Barber, global executive director,

Word Made Flesh

The cross means more than we’ve let it mean .

Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful: these

are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church .

As central as these disciplines are, however, they are only

part of the story . And as Christian Community Develop-

ment Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has

learned over a lifetime of ministry and mission, the neglect

of the gospel’s full implications has contributed to the

erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and

other marginalized people .

Here Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a

narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to

embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples .

This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion,

confronts injustice and restores individuals and communi-

ties to wholeness . This is the whole work of the cross; this is

the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh .

Noel Castellanos works in Latino, urban communi-

ties across the country serving in youth ministry, church

planting, advocacy and community development . He is chief

executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor

of Chicago’s La Villita Community Church . He is the coau-

thor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

and Suburban Ministry.

Making Disciples Across Cultures

Missional Principles for a Diverse World

”Charles Davis applies a distinctively missionary

analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time.

But it’s not all critique and analysis: built on narrative

and experience, he lovingly provides the church with

a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable path-

ways toward renewal of church life and mission.”

Alan Hirsch, founding director of Forge Missional

Training Network and author of The Forgotten Ways

Culture affects how we make disciples . We often uncon-

sciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry

and mission, but in today’s global environment, disciple-

making requires the humility and flexibility to adapt

between different cultural approaches .

Charles Davis, former director of TEAM (The Evan-

gelical Alliance Mission), provides a framework for missional

disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts . With

on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience,

Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior,

individualism and collectivism, and truth and works to help

Christian workers minister more effectively .

Charles A. Davis (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity

School) is the former executive international director of

TEAM and has over four decades of crosscultural expe-

rience in global disciplemaking and missional church

planting . He was previously president of the Evangelical

Seminary of Caracas, and he is a member of the Global

Leadership Council of the Mission Commission of the World

Evangelical Alliance .

George Yancey

Hostile Environment

Understanding and Responding to Anti-Christian Bias

“The only good Christian is a dead Christian .”

In our heated cultural environment, comments like this

are increasingly common . Sometimes Christians are too

quick to claim that they are being persecuted . But Chris-

tians aren’t just being paranoid or alarmist . Anti-Christian

hostility is real .

Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of

Christianophobia, an intense animosity against Christians

and the Christian faith . Among some circles, opposition to

Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices

like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination . While Christian-

ophobia in the united States does not typically rise to the

violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of

the world, Christians are often still treated in ways that

perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture

war acrimony .

Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root

causes of Christianophobia, and he considers to what extent

Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian

hostility . At times, criticisms of Christians are justified, but

Christians can confront untruths without capitulation . In

this truthful yet hope-filled treatise, Yancey shows how Chris-

tians can respond more constructively, defusing tensions

and working toward the common good .

George Yancey (PhD, university of Texas) is professor of

sociology at the university of North Texas, specializing in

race/ethnicity, biracial families and anti-Christian bias . He

is the author, coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compro-

mising Scholarship: Religious and Political Bias in American

Higher Education, Dehumanizing Christians: Cultural Competition

in a Multicultural World, There Is No God: Atheists in America,

Beyond Black and White, Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Don’t

Marry One . He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting,

helping churches and ministries develop and sustain a multi-

racial emphasis .

Michael Hidalgo

Changing Faith

Questions, Doubts and Choices About an Unchanging God

“For those struggling with difficult questions about

God, faith and life overall, Michael Hidalgo offers

insights from Scripture, reflections from his own

journey and a healthy dose of humor to guide us all

toward a more robust faith in Jesus.”

Brad Lomenick, author, The Catalyst Leader

“There are so many things I am not comfortable with

claiming as 100 percent true, but I cannot say they are 100

percent false either . I cannot and will not go back to the

faith I have clung to for decades . I am done with it .”

This is not a declaration of being done with faith, but

it is a recognition that faith has to change . Many of us are

grappling with similar doubts . How much can we actually

know about God and our world? Who is right and who is

wrong? Whose “truth” is really true? Do I need God to live a

life that matters?

We have questions not because we reject faith in God, but

because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities,

new technology and new insights that demand new answers .

This changes how we live, communicate, think and believe .

We know we are moving from somewhere, but we don’t

exactly know what we are moving toward . That’s what this

book is about .

Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Commu-

nity Church, which under his leadership has grown from

forty people to over 1,500 . A graduate of Grand Rapids

Theological Seminary, Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson

as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids,

Michigan . With the ONE Campaign and Malaria No More,

Hidalgo has addressed thousands nationally . He writes regu-

larly for Relevant Magazine and Sojourners . Hidalgo, his wife

and three children live in Denver .
