    • Id Rather Teach Peace

      $19.00

      An acclaimed writer takes up the challenge of teaching peace.

      “Here is a dedicated teacher’s journal that will help all of us understand how we might live in a better world by trying to understand it, and by trying to make it more peaceful.” -Robert Coles

      When acclaimed Washington Post columnist Colman McCarthy was invited to teach a course on writing at an impoverished public school in Washington, D.C., he responded, “I’d rather teach peace.” Thus began the work he has passionately pursued for the past 25 years-teaching courses on nonviolence, conflict management, and peace studies. I’d Rather Teach Peace chronicles one semester in six of these schools, as students find themselves challenged and inspired by an unconventional course and by a man who believes that if we don’t teach our children peace someone else will teach them violence.

    • Israel Gods Servant

      $29.99

      Historically antiSemitism has been ingrained in much Christian theology and practise. Is this the result of NT teaching or an alien intrusion into Christianity?

    • Solomon Among The Postmoderns (Reprinted)

      $31.25

      1. Vapor’s Revenge
      2. The Elusive Word
      3. The Decentered Self
      4. Power Is With The Oppressor
      5. Eat, Drink, Rejoice

      Additional Info
      Solomon’s words from a famous passage of Ecclesiastes have been translated, “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.” But in Solomon among the Postmoderns, author Peter Leithart says those words are better translated as “Vapor of vapors, all is vapor,” emphasizing that human life is fleeting. Leithart uses this theme, as well as the entire book of Ecclesiastes, to indicate how Solomon resonated with postmodernism.

      Exploring the strengths and limits of postmodernism, he displays how the theory reflects an important biblical theme: the elusiveness and instability of the world. But he goes on to show that biblical faith takes us beyond cynicism and despair, exploring Solomon’s frequent call to “eat, drink, and rejoice.”

      A skilled theologian and widely published author, Leithart writes for audiences including professors and students of philosophy, apologetics, biblical studies, and theology, as well as laypeople seeking a biblical view of postmodernism. Those familiar and unfamiliar with postmodernism will learn from the book’s forthright exegetical approach, which is unique among the many books about postmodernism available today.

By scrutinizing sacred book interpretation in both the Islamic and Christian heritages, The Certainty Trap challenges contemporary religious fundamentalism and is a timely contribution to Muslim-Christian relations.

    • Spirit And The Politics Of Disabablement

      $48.33

      In this remarkable and incisive work, Sharon Betcher analyzes our world and God’s embodied presence in the light of her own disability and the insight it affords. She claims disablement as a site of powerful social and religious critique and reflection. With searing honesty, she reveals how our culture, only recently tolerant and supportive of disabled people, still fears them. The presence of disabled persons stands as a rebuke to our images of body and health, to the distorted values of our consumerist culture, and the globalized economy that embodies those values in unjust structures.

      Yet, Betcher claims, disablement has also revealed powerful alternative understandings of the body and body politic, in Scripture, in the actions of Jesus, in the healing work of the Spirit at work in a broken world. Brimming with insight, Betcher’s work is a revelation and a bracing challenge to all Christians.

Finally, she offers an understanding of the implications of such a program for the field and practice of biblical studies, an indispensable parner in challening the status quo.

    • As America Has Done To Israel

      $19.99

      God’s everlasting promise to bless those who bless Israel-and curse those who curse Israel-is still in effect today. Throughout its history, America has been in a unique position to bless the Jewish people, and has experienced many blessings as a result. In more recent years, however, America has failed to consistently stand by Israel and suffered dramatic disasters.

      In this interesting and thorough book, McTernan traces the history of the Jewish people in America and how America’s spectacular rise to power was tied to blessing the Jews. He examines America’s integral role in fulfilling God’s plan for the rebirth of the Jewish nation, and details the times when our nation defaulted on this call. Through a step-by-step analysis of political events, McTernan gives conclusive proof that God’s judgment on those who curse Israel is still active. In every case where America has failed Israel, it has faced dramatic consequences within 24 hours.

    • Confronting Kingdom Challenges

      $25.00

      Among the challenges facing the twenty-first-century church worldwide are theological uncertainty, divisiveness among Christians, the rise of paganism and New Age religions, AIDS, sexual abuse and trafficking, evangelizing the world’s great urban centers, and responding to ethnic and religious conflict.

      Clearly, there is no shortage of kingdom challenges. The chapters in this volume, written by some of the leaders of the global Reformed and evangelical church, provide superb analyses of these challenges and offer clear, biblical suggestions for answering them. Through their suggestions the contributors outline what is necessary to be a global evangelical Christian in the twenty-first century.

      The overarching theme of Confronting Kingdom Challenges is that of burden-sharing. Readers will see that no Christian, no church, no nation need face these kingdom challenges alone.

    • Focus : The Art And Soul Of Cinema

      $41.65

      People love films. Whether it is going out to the cinema or curling up at home with a DVD, movies are one of our favorite forms of entertainment. However, it is important that Christians learn to watch films thoughtfully rather than just seeing them as entertainment.
      This book prompts readers with questions to consider when they watch films. Being aware of what you’re watching rather than idly letting it soak in is essential to our Christian growth. We should understand the messages films communicate and how they relate to the good news of Jesus Christ.

    • America Youre Too Young To Die

      $20.61

      The ruins of the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah have been located along the western shores of the Dead Sea. They stand there in stark contrast to the mountains around them. God preserved the huge ruins of white ash as a reminder that God’s Word, the Bible, is not a fairy tale to be taken lightly. His Word is literal and absolutely true. Does the discovery of the cities destroyed by a literal and torrential rain storm of burning sulfur pellets have any implication for a modern, end-time nation that flaunts its immorality and perversion? Will the tragic story of Sodom and Gomorrah ever be repeated? The answer to these questions appears to be a tragic and resounding yes! The ancient prophets of God spoke of a mighty, end-time nation that they referred to as “the daughter of Babylon.” According to the prophets, that youngest and most powerful of nations will one day experience the same tragic fate as Sodom and Gomorrah.

    • Fear Of Beggars A Print On Demand Title

      $26.99

      In the twenty-first century, the gap between the haves and have-nots is lengthening once again, and to American eyes, poverty is no longer limited to third-world countries. Yet often modern Christian thought on property is premised on the exclusion of the beggar from economic morality. Kelly Johnson asks the important question Why does Christian ethics so rarely tackle the question of whether to give to beggars? Examining both classical economics and Christian stewardship ethics as reaction to medieval mendicant debates, Johnson reveals both modern anxiety about dependence and humility and the importance of Christian attempts to re-imagine property relations in ways that integrate those qualities. Studying the rhetoric and thought of Christian thinkers, beggar saints, economists and others, Johnson places greatest emphasis on the life and work of Peter Maurin. Challenging and thought-provoking, The Fear of Beggars will expand what counts as a topic for Christian economic ethics into a richer, more complicated discussion.

    • Emerging Heart : Global Spirituality And The Sacred

      $40.00

      Millions of Americans have adopted and adapted spiritual practices and virtues from a variety of traditions. What are they looking for? Theologian and retreat leader Beverly Lanzetta believes that our contemporary world desperately seeks a shared spiritual foundation adequate to meet our most pressing moral, religious, economic, and social issues. We need, she argues, a spiritual vocabulary to describe the unspoken, to interpret our common humanity, and to articulate our earthly concerns in a way respectful and inclusive of all.

      Highlighting pioneers of global spirituality such as Thomas Merton, Thich Nhat Hanh, Abraham Heschel, Mohandas Gandhi, Howard Thurman, Bede Griffiths, and Dorothy Day, Emerging Heart shows how a variety of religious traditions emerge from and converge on a divine nature and mystic quality that creates a loving heart. Lanzetta first describes this phenomenon in her own experience and then elaborates on that mystical core, the notion of the divine, the new shape of interreligious dialogue, pioneers of this new global spirituality, and the personal, spiritual, and ethical challenges that it poses to us.

      This is a book of breathtaking insight and high moral ambition to restore our sense of human possibility and high purpose.

    • Selfish Genes And Christian Ethics

      $44.99

      The evolutionary origins of human beings, and in particular the origins of human morality, have always attracted debate and speculation, not just in the academic community but in popular science and the wider general population as well. The arguments and explanations put forward over the years seem to thoroughly catch the popular imagination, but there is the danger that these explanations tend to step outside the bounds of scientific theory and become powerful popular myths instead. In Neil Messer’s Selfish Genes and Christian Ethics, the author is challenging this tendency. Instead he provides a Christian theological anthropology, which, among other things, aims to give Christians and the churches the confidence to engage with assumptions that evolutionary theory and religious beliefs are untenable.

      This is a valuable resource for anyone engaged in the study of theology, providing the reader with the ability to consider both the theoretical and the practical questions raised by evolutionary discussions of ethics and morality.

    • Changing The Face Of Hunger

      $19.99

      If the Democratic party wants to learn how to court the evangelical community, they’d do well to learn from Tony Hall. As a Congressman, Tony Hall was reluctant to wear his faith on his sleeve. But if he was to be true to the faith he professed, he had to find a way to bring God into the political world in which he worked. He found the answer to this dilemma in one of the most awful places he’s ever visited-Ethiopia. He realized, as he watched a doctor combing the crowds of starving Africans looking for a half-dozen lives he could save, that he would travel among the hungry and bring their needs to the attention of Washington. He even went on a much-publicized 22-day fast to call for attention to these issues. Years later, and after traveling to more than 100 countries, Tony Hall has seen it all-desperation, honor, starvation, redemption, and hope. From the dark corners of a political prison in Romania to the barren landscape of famine-stricken Africa, people are suffering and we can help.

    • Lazarus At The Table

      $19.95

      Lazarus at the Table is the fruit of more than two decades of instructing students in the social teachings of the Catholic Church. For most of these years Bernard Evans has taught graduate students. Lately he also teaches lay Catholics engaged in parish ministry and enrolled in diocesan ministry formation programs. This book is written specifically for the latter group.

      Evans agrees with the bishops of the United States who insist that any Catholic education that does not include Catholic social teaching is not fully Catholic. And so he writes clearly, concisely, and convincingly about how Catholic social teaching addresses such contemporary issues as human dignity, abortion, assisted suicide and euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, the death penalty, war, family, marriage, poverty, superfluous income, just wages, unions, peace, solidarity, and many more. Excerpts from the church’s official teachings in papal documents abound throughout the book.

      $21.00

      Everyday people are considering the roles of men and women in the home and church. Evangelical feminists consider these roles interchangeable. In this helpful book, Wayne Grudem offers fifty biblical responses to feminists’ arguments. While the Bible teaches that God values men and women equally, their roles in home and church are complementary to each other, not interchangeable. Arguing against both feminism on the left and male chauvinism on the right, this to-the-point handbook is a valuable resource.

    • Won By Love

      $16.98

      In Roe v. Wade, perhaps the most controversial United States Supreme Court decision, Norma McCorvey fought for and won the right to secure an abortion. Though she never had an abortion, under the pseudonym “Jane Roe,” Norma reluctantly became the poster child for the pro-choice movement.

      Over the next two decades, Norma experienced the grief and despair of millions of women who chose to abort their babies; she witnessed the destruction of thousands of human lives in abortion clinics where she worked; and the “champion” of the pro-choice movement was soon being crushed by the weight of so much pain, so much death, and so many ill-considered “choices.”

      Finally, she began to break. She found out that the real choice she had been burdened with was not about abortion but about eternal life. It was a choice that would shock the world and change Norma’s life forever.

    • Evangelical Feminism : A New Path To Liberalism

      $25.00

      By critically examining the writings of egalitarians, Grudem shows that, while egalitarian leaders claim to be subject to Scripture in their thinking, what is increasingly evident in their actual scholarship and practice is an effective rejection of the authority of Scripture.

      Egalitarianism is heading toward an Adam who is neither male nor female, a Jesus whose manhood is not important, and a God who is both Father and Mother, and then maybe only Mother. The common denominator in all of this is a persistent undermining of the authority of Scripture in our lives. Grudem’s conclusion is that we must choose either evangelical feminism or biblical truth. We can’t have it both ways!

    • Gods Politics

      $14.95

      Since when did believing in God and having moral values make you pro-war, pro-rich, and pro-Republican? And since when did promoting and pursuing a progressive social agenda with a concern for economic security, health care, and educational opportunity mean you had to put faith in God aside?

      While the Right in America has hijacked the language of faith to prop up its political agenda-an agenda not all people of faith support-the Left hasn’t done much better, largely ignoring faith and continually separating moral discourse and personal ethics from public policy. While the Right argues that God’s way is their way, the Left pursues an unrealistic separation of religious values from morally grounded political leadership. The consequence is a false choice between ideological religion and soulless politics.

      The effect of this dilemma was made clear in the 2004 presidential election. The Democrats’ miscalculations have left them despairing and searching for a way forward. It has become clear that someone must challenge the Republicans’ claim that they speak for God, or that they hold a monopoly on moral values in the nation’s public life. Wallis argues that America’s separation of church and state does not require banishing moral and religious values from the public square. In fact, the very survival of America’s social fabric depends on such values and vision to shape our politics-a dependence the nation’s founders recognized.

      God’s Politics offers a clarion call to make both our religious communities and our government more accountable to key values of the prophetic religious tradition-that is, make them pro-justice, pro-peace, pro-environment, pro-equality, pro-consistent ethic of life (beyond single issue voting), and pro-family (without making scapegoats of single mothers or gays and lesbians). Our biblical faith and religious traditions simply do not allow us as a nation to continue to ignore the poor and marginalized, deny racial justice, tolerate the ravages of war, or turn away from the human rights of those made in the image of God. These are the values of love and justice, reconciliation, and community that Jesus taught and that are at the core of what many of us believe, Christian or not. In the tradition of prophets such as Martin Luther King Jr., Dorothy Day, and Desmond Tutu, Wallis inspires us to hold our political leaders and policies accountable by integrating our deepest moral convictions into our nation’s public life.

    • Suburban Christian : Finding Spiritual Vitality In The Land Of Plenty

      $32.99

      IVP Print On Demand Title

      Suburbia: Paradise or Wasteland?

      Suburbia is a place of spiritual yearnings. People come to suburbia looking for a fresh start, the second chance, a new life. It embodies the hopes and longings of its residents, dreams for the future, safety and security for their children, and the search for meaningful community and relationships. Yet much in our suburban world militates against such aspirations, and people find themselves isolated and alienated, trapped by consumerism and materialism. Is there hope for a Christian vision for the suburbs?

      Al Hsu unpacks the spiritual significance of suburbia and explores how suburban culture shapes how we live and practice our faith. With broad historical background and sociological analysis, Hsu offers practical insights for living Christianly in a suburban context. Probing such dynamics as commuting and consuming, he offers Christian alternatives for authentic spirituality, genuine community and relevant ministry. And he challenges suburban Christians to look beyond suburbia and marshal their resources toward urban and global justice.

      Suburbia may be one of the most significant mission fields of the twenty-first century. Here is guidance and hope for all who would seek the welfare of the suburbs.

    • Hunger For The Word Year C

      $19.95

      We have all experienced hunger, whether it’s a need for spiritual guidance or physical nutrition. Our hunger for God’s Word can benefit those needing material sustenance. God’s Word calls us to nourish the hungry and poor, just as it nourishes our faith and sustains us in our struggle for justice. Hunger for the Word explores the Lectionary with a focus on anti-hunger advocacy, social activism, and political issues affecting marginalized people. Using insights, images, and stories from pastors, professors, and laity active in anti-hunger campaigns, this ecumenical book offers devotional connections to inequality issues, as well as themes to help in our struggle to understand and eliminate injustice. Hunger for the Word, edited by Larry Hollar of Bread for the World, brings concern for hunger and fairness into our daily religious life. With weekly sermon/homily reflections, Hunger for the Word is an invaluable resource for pastors, liturgical ministers, and those interested in justice-oriented Bible study and spiritual growth. Also includes suggestions for musical worship, and ideas for children’s sermons to help spread God’s Word of activism, compassion, and integrity throughout the congregation.

    • Look Behind The Facade

      $44.98

      Islam has hidden behind a faAade of goodness for too long. Too many people are falling for the sanitized and false version and continually suggest that Islam is a religion of peace and goodwill. Perhaps due to the fear of terror or familiarity, we seem only able to question the veracity of Christianity but shy away from asking the hard questions of Islam. The time has come to look behind that faAade and view the malignity at the core of Islam. If the free world hobnobs with a repressive system, it will itself become repressive. Make no mistake about it, if upholding freedom in free societies continues to be confused with permissiveness where everything is allowed to flourish, and the distinction between right and wrong continues to be blurred, then like a toad sitting in a warm pan that will boil, the free world will be cooked – using its own fire. Orthodox Islam is the force driving terrorism and unless it is discredited intellectually, the fire of hate and death that it has unleashed will not go away. The terrorists are not abusing Islam; they are the true Muslims who are overwhelmingly supported by the Quran and the examples of their Prophet, Muhammad. Other Muslims are in a state of denial. If Islam is good and true and if reasonable people can find it to be so, why does it entrap converts with the threat of death for apostasy? Why do Muslims claim that the Bible has been changed when the Quran says that no one can change the words of God? Why must we regard the Quran as truthful when it is full of plagiarism, anachronism, false information and hate? Why should we regard Islam as peaceful when it advocates the killing of Jews and infidels in cold blood? How can we trust its ethics when it allows Muslims to lie in its defence? Why must we not fight against it when it denies those in its domain the freedom of speech and the right to follow the dictates of their conscience? Why must God be labelled as unfaithful, inconsistent and a deceiver so that Muhammad can pass as divine messenger?
