Many Paths With Mary
$35.00
“The dynamic relationship of emerging popular piety and developing doctrine, in both its promise and peril, provides us with possibilities for thinking about how different cultures across the world already contribute to the Church, as they have down the ages.” –From the Introduction
Many Paths with Mary brings readers on an international journey, exploring how Mary, Mother of God, comes to be understood in different times and places: including 16th century Copacabana, Boliva, and Tepeyac, Mexico, 19th century Lourdes, France, and even more recently in Mexico. Michael J. Rogers explicates some of the many ways that the Holy Spirit speaks through the people of God when popular piety emerges in the meeting of distinct cultures, through moments of meaning, and amid ruptures in society. By demonstrating how popular piety can facilitate mutual understand and spiritual renewal, Rogers puts forth vital insights for forging a truly synodal Church, one that is able to “walk together” in the Spirit’s stirring call to all peoples, everywhere.

Simply Jesus : A New Vision Of Who He Was What He Did And Why He Matters
$15.99In Simply Jesus, bestselling author and leading Bible scholar N.T. Wright summarizes 200 years of modern Biblical scholarship and models how Christians can best retell the story of Jesus today. In a style similar to C.S. Lewis’s popular works, Wright breaks down the barriers that prevent Christians from fully engaging with the story of Jesus. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.

Surprised By Hope
$15.99For years Christians have been asking, “If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?” It turns out Christians have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven.
One of today’s premier Bible scholars and award-winning author N.T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian’s future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright shows that Christianity’s most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. First, he provides a magisterial defense of a literal resurrection of Jesus himself. This became the cornerstone for the Christian community’s hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Next Wright explores our expectation of “new heavens and new earth,” showing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the “second coming” of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise.
Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation – and if this has already begun in Jesus’s resurrection – the church cannot stop at “saving souls” but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God’s kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life.
Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but, before it.
