Old Testament Studies
John H. Walton
Genesis 2–3 and the Human Origins Debate
”Scholarly and readable, the text seen through Near
Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into
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” understanding 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 Graduate 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.

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

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.

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 Goldingay turns that question on its head: Do we need the New
Testament?
What’s new about the New Testament? After all, the Old
Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew.
Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God. Do we need anything
more? And what happens when we begin to look 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 Communion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew

Apologetics
Brian K. Morley
Mapping Apologetics
Comparing Contemporary Approaches
Brian K. Morley
”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 underpinnings of key figures and major schools of thought, from
the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the evidentialism 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 Philosophical Society and the Society of Christian Philosophers.

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 deepdown 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 reflection 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.

tells its readers why and how this is so.”
Theology
as Retrieval
Receiving the Past,
Renewing the Church
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 movement across the church looks back in order to move forward.
David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied movement 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 reflection, 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 coeditor of and a contributor to Scholarship, Sacraments, and Service.
Kent D. Eilers (PhD, King’s College, University of
Aberdeen) is assistant professor of theology at Huntington
University. He is the author of Faithful to Save: Pannenberg on

Teaching Theology and Religion, American Theological Inquiry

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.

AmANDA HoNTz Drury
“Amanda Drury is one of the most creative and thoughtful people
thinking about youth ministry in North America.” —Andrew root
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. Testimony 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 essential practice for Christian spiritual formation, especially for
adolescents who are in the process of developing their identity. Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adolescents 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.

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.

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.
...
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 postChristendom 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 determined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and
Western culture. Mobilizing the latest resources in homiletical theory and missional theology, he argues that preaching
is a major form of the church’s witness to Jesus Christ, equipping the congregation for its witness to the world.

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 Testament 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.

”Keying the book to the leading textbooks, John

”The book takes seriously the authority of Scripture

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, motivation 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 theories 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.

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 discussion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incarnate 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.

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 (Godbearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople. Cyril’s
great Commentary on John, offered here in the Ancient Christian 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 practical 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
professor of historical theology at Concordia Seminary in St.

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 theological 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 University. As T. F. Torrance’s nephew, Walker has gained an intimate understanding of Torrance’s theology, studying under
him and hearing these lectures given in person.

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

The Song of Songs
An Introduction and Commentary
This Old Testament book, “the best of songs”, has fascinated 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 idealized 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.

James (Second Edition)
The genius of the letter of James lies in its powerfully simple
call for repentance, for action, for a consistent Christian lifestyle. 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.

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 Jerusalem 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.

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 automatically 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 twentyfirst 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 Lichfield Cathedral. He also taught New Testament studies for
twenty years at Cambridge, McGill and Oxford Universities.

“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 reconcile, 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 movements 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.

Disaster Ministry Handbook
”We are called to save both souls and lives, and this
book gives direction on how we can do both.”
Thad Hicks, divisional emergency disaster
services director, the Salvation Army
When floods or tornadoes devastate an area, or when shootings and violence shock a community, people turn to local
churches as centers for response and assistance. Knowing
what to do can be the difference between calm and chaos,
courage and fear, life and death. But few churches plan in
advance for what they should do—until the storm hits.
Don’t get caught unprepared. Jamie Aten and David
Boan, codirectors of the Humanitarian Disaster Institute,
provide this practical guide for disaster preparedness. Filled
with resources for emergency planning and crisis management, this book helps local congregations prepare for the
unthinkable, provide relief to survivors and help communities recover. The time to plan is now. Your church can help
prevent harm and save lives during a disaster.
Jamie D. Aten (PhD, Indiana State University) is the
founder of the Humanitarian Disaster Institute. He teaches
psychology at Wheaton College and previously served as the
assistant director of the Katrina Research Center.
David M. Boan (PhD, Biola University) is associate

What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at

“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.”
Where the Cross
Meets the Street
What happens to the neighborhood
when God is at the center
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 Development 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 communities 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 communities 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 coauthor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban

Culture affects how we make disciples. We often unconsciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry
and mission, but in today’s global environment, disciplemaking requires the humility and flexibility to adapt
between different cultural approaches.
Charles Davis, former director of TEAM (The Evangelical 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.

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 Christians 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 Christianophobia 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 Christians 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 Compromising 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 multiracial emphasis.

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.

The shift of Christianity from the Euro-American West to the Global South invites

the transformation of the whole person for service to God and neighbor.
Tremper Longman III
Psalms
The book of Psalms is the heart of the Old Testament. It also anticipates Jesus Christ.
In this Tyndale Old Testament Commentary, Tremper Longman interprets each
psalm in its Old Testament setting, summarizes its overall message and reflects on its
significance from a New Testament perspective.
Derek Kidner
Psalms 1–72, Psalms 73–150
“The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” “Thy word is a lamp to my feet.” “Search
me, O God, and know my heart!”
Such phrases leap to mind whenever Christians lift their hearts to God. For many,
the Psalms are the richest part of the Old Testament. Derek Kidner provides a fresh
and penetrating guide. He analyzes each psalm in depth, comments on interpretative
questions and brings out the universal relevance of the texts. He also gives special
help on the psalmists’ cries for vengeance.
Formerly part of the Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries series, these commentaries
will inspire and deepen personal worship.
