Trouble I’ve Seen
Changing the Way

Drew G. I. Hart is a blogger, PhD candidate in theology and ethics, and activist. His
blog, Taking Jesus Seriously, is
hosted by Christian Century,
and he speaks regularly at
churches, universities, and
seminaries. He and his family
live in Philadelphia.
What if racial reconciliation doesn’t look like what you ex
pected? The high-profile killings of young black men and
women by white police officers, and the protests and violence
that ensued, have convinced many white Christians to re
examine their intuitions when it comes to race and justice.
In this provocative book, theologian and blogger Drew G. I.
Hart places police brutality, mass incarceration, antiblack
stereotypes, poverty, and everyday acts of racism within
the larger framework of white supremacy. He argues that
white Christians have repeatedly gotten it wrong about
race because dominant culture and white privilege have so
thoroughly shaped their assumptions. He also challenges
black Christians about neglecting the most vulnerable in their
own communities. Leading readers toward Jesus, Hart offers
concrete practices for churches that seek solidarity with the
oppressed and are committed to racial justice.
What if all Christians listened to the stories of those on the
racialized margins? How might the church be changed by the
trouble we’ve seen?
Key Features
• Written by a well-known theologian and blogger
• Hard-hitting analysis of racial injustice in the 21st
century
• Call to action for Christians and creative proposals for
antiracist practices for churches
• Foreword by Christena Cleveland
“
This book is a gift from the heart of one of the
sharpest young theologians in the United States. Hold it
carefully, and allow it to transform you—and our bloodstained streets.

Revolution
Abundant Faith
Women’s Bible Study Series
Do you want to pay attention to how God’s words in the
Bible have meaning for women today? The Abundant
Faith: Women’s Bible Study Series takes participants on a
journey through Scripture, encouraging women to explore
their faith and connect more deeply with God. Each of the
thematic studies in this series invites women to take Jesus seriously and grow in faith.
Titles in this dynamic series include 12 study sessions and one worship service, all carefully designed to draw Christian women closer to God every day. Sessions include suggestions for a time of
gathering and worship, an in-depth look at Scripture, study questions to integrate life and faith, and
closing prompts such as prayers and blessings.
Key Features
• Women’s Bible study series that helps women delve deeper into Scripture and apply the teachings of Jesus
• Excellent for individual study, women’s groups, and retreat settings, the sessions nurture faith
in new and active ways and encourage women in their Christian walk

RELIGION / Biblical Studies / Bible Study Guides
Talking about money often makes us uncomfortable. But the Bible doesn’t shy
away from talking about wealth and what we should do with it. God cares
deeply that our money, on loan to us, is used to reflect love for all. This women’s
Bible study explores the blessings and responsibilities of money.
Courageous Women
2016. 80 pages. PB. 9781513800233. $9.99 USD/$11.99 CAD
Strong. Courageous. Persistent. Uncover stories of biblical women who acted
with unflinching courage—women who sought justice, spoke truth, and witnessed to God’s love. Each of the sessions in this 12-week Bible study profiles at
least one biblical woman who serves as a model to encourage and challenge us
in our Christian walk today.
Generous Gifts
2016. 80 pages. PB. 9781513800264. $9.99 USD/$11.99 CAD
Scripture reveals a God who has lavished many good gifts upon us—in creation,
healing, and relationships. In gratitude, we join with God to offer healing and
hope to the world. This women’s Bible study helps us learn ways to better appreciate the full range of God’s goodness and how to share that goodness with
others.
Wonderfully Made
2016. 80 pages. PB. 9781513800240. $9.99 USD/$11.99 CAD
When did you last care for yourself? To offer supportive care to others, we first
need to care for ourselves. This Bible study for women nudges us to care for
our bodies, minds, and spirits. Stories from the Old and New Testaments help us
rediscover the need for and benefits of self-care and personal wholeness.

Should I sign up our seven-year-old son for the travel team?
What should we do about our daughter’s Sunday morning games? Am I the only one longing for a sane balance between children’s sports, family time, and church
commitments?
David King and Margot Starbuck offer good news for
Christian parents stressed out by these questions and
stretched thin by the demands of competitive youth sports.
They believe that youth athletics should be a learning laboratory for wholesome relationships and character development.
Did you know your child can become a better athlete by not
playing one sport year-round? That investing money into
athletic pursuits in the hopes of a scholarship rarely pays off?
That you can say no to elite leagues and still say yes to your
child’s fun and fitness?
Join King, athletic director at a Christian university, and
Starbuck, an award-winning author and speaker, as they
investigate seven myths about what’s best for young athletes.
Discover with them what it means to not be conformed
to the patterns of the youth sports world. Listen in as they
talk to other parents, pastors, and coaches about the peril
and promise of children’s sports. Learn practical ways to set
boundaries and help kids gain healthy identities as beloved
children of God—both on and off the field, and whether they
win or lose.

Jessica Kelley is a writer,
speaker, and survivor of
child loss. She has degrees in
psychology and counseling
and has worked as a school
counselor. Born and raised
in the South, Jessica now
lives with her husband and
five-year-old daughter in

Does God’s perfect plan really include this?
When her young son was diagnosed with brain cancer,
Jessica Kelley couldn’t stomach Christian clichés. God’s will?
Divine design? The Lord’s perfect plan? In Lord Willing?,
Kelley boldly tackles one of the most difficult questions of the
Christian life: if God is all-powerful and all-loving, why do we
suffer? For Kelley, this question takes an even more painful
and personal turn: did God lack the power or the desire to
spare her four-year-old son?
For those dissatisfied with easy answers to why evil and
tragedy occur, Lord Willing? offers a refreshing, hopeful journey straight to the heart of God. Be prepared for something
more beautiful, more pure, and more healing than you can
dare to imagine.

Marty Troyer is a
husband and father, pastor
and writer in Houston, Texas,
where he’s served at Houston
Mennonite Church since
2008. He loves preaching
and working to make God’s
“kingdom come on earth
as it is in heaven.” His blog,
The Peace Pastor, has been
hosted by the Houston
Chronicle for more than two
years and shares a gospelcentered Jesus ethic. Troyer’s
blog has led him to countless
encounters across the city and
nation about what it means
to take Jesus’ call to peace
seriously.
As Christians, we pray for God’s kingdom to come “on earth
as it in heaven.” But what does that even mean? Would we
recognize God’s kingdom if it moved in next door?
Learn to see God’s work in your neighborhood, city, and
the world—and learn how to join it. With stories from his
own city of Houston, Texas, author Marty Troyer introduces
a theology of place that empowers us to truly see the work
of God where we live, work, and play. The Gospel Next Door
unpacks the gospel through the lenses of following Jesus,
making peace, and overcoming injustice. Those seeking to
connect more deeply with the world that God so loved will
find compelling stories and practical ideas for healing brokenness and imagining new life. Stop reading the gospel as if it
only pertained to the mission field and didn’t hold meaning
for the place you live. Start living out the kingdom of God
here and now.
Key Features
• Helps readers reimagine what the work of Jesus looks
like in their communities
• Highlights the gospel’s power to transform spiritual,
social, and systemic brokenness
• Explores contemporary issues through three distinct
lenses of Jesus, shalom, and restorative justice

Surprise!
Stories of Discovering Jesus
Jesus surprised and blessed the people he met, and with each
encounter people discovered more about Jesus. Surprise!
Stories of Discovering Jesus allows children to be surprised as
they discover Jesus, too! Each of the five stories in this Biblebased vacation Bible school kit tells about someone surprised
by Jesus. Surprise! invites children from preschool to grade 5
to come along on the journey, to open their eyes, and to see
what Jesus has in store!
The stories come from the Gospels and tell of Jesus surprising leaders in the temple with his wisdom as a child, Jesus
blessing children much to the surprise of the authorities, Jesus
feeding a large crowd with only five loaves and two fish,
Nicodemus seeking Jesus’ wisdom at night, and two travelers on the road surprised by Jesus after his death. With each
surprise, children will discover more about Jesus.
Children in grades K–5 will see Bible stories come to life
in the dramas during worship time, and will reflect on them
during three response times: Bible Response, Active Response,
and Creative Response.
Children ages 4–5 may participate in worship with the
older children or have their own worship time. They too will
share in the Bible story and engage in crafts, games, and
other activities.

RELIGION / Biblical Commentary / Old Testament
Purity, worship, obedience, and hope: 1 & 2 Chronicles called
the early Hebrew people to faithful practice of these things,
and they issue the same call to readers today. As August H.
Konkel writes in the 30th commentary in the Believers Church
Bible Commentary series, the Chronicler provided a unifying
vision of the community’s rich traditions in an era of despondency and apathy. Exile had robbed the people of Israel of
their wealth, and their return to the land of Judah had created resentment with the surrounding peoples. Struggling to
maintain their faith amid intense social pressures, the Hebrew
people needed to look to their past for lessons for the present. As two of the most overlooked books in the Christian
canon, 1 & 2 Chronicles are exemplary resources for those
who seek to be the people of God today.
August H. Konkel
is president emeritus of
Providence University College
and Theological Seminary
in Otterburne, Manitoba.
Konkel began at Providence
as instructor in Old Testament
in 1984; he served full
time as professor of Old
Testament until July 2001.
Konkel received his PhD from
Westminster Theological
Seminary in 1987. He is
author of a commentary on
Job and on 1 & 2 Kings and
has served as a pastor.

Rich Preheim is a freelance
writer, blogger, and historian.
He has served as director
of Mennonite Church USA
historical committee and as
a reporter and editor for the
Mennonite and Mennonite
World Review. Preheim’s writing has also appeared in the
New York Times, Washington
Post, Sojourners, Christian
Century, and Mennonite
Quarterly Review. A native of
South Dakota, Preheim has a
bachelor’s degree from Bethel
College and a master’s degree
in journalism from Indiana
University.
In 1841, four Amish Mennonite families left their homes in
southwestern Pennsylvania and traveled in horse-drawn wagons to Elkhart County, Indiana. Their journey was distinctly
American, as they joined a wave of white settlers searching
for new and cheaper lands where they could live, work, and
worship. It was also distinctly Anabaptist, as they sought to
live out complicated commitments to Christ, nonviolence,
and community. In this lively narrative, historian and journalist Rich Preheim investigates the heritage and innovations of
Indiana-Michigan Mennonite Conference, an area conference
of Mennonite Church USA, that have profoundly shaped
Mennonite faith and practice since the 19th century. Standing
at the crossroads of tradition and change, Mennonites in
Indiana and Michigan wrestle to pursue faithfulness to Christ
in the 21st century.
Key Features
• Engaging narrative history of Mennonites in Indiana and
Michigan from the 19th century to present
• Compelling case study of ecclesial identity and loyalty in
an era of waning denominationalism
• In-depth survey of Mennonite conflicts about women in
leadership, divorce, peace, and sexuality
• Volume 50 in the Studies in Anabaptist and Mennonite
History series

When did we become so tame? Why has the “good life”
come to mean a stress-filled addiction to screens and status,
fossils fuels and financial fitness? Can we break free to become the joyful and prophetic people God calls us to be?
Trek along with wilderness guide Todd Wynward as he “rewilds” the Jesus Way. Seek the feral foundations of Scripture
and the lessons that the prophets and disciples gleaned
from wilderness testing. Packed with inspiring stories of how
contemporary people and groups are caring for the land and
each other, Rewilding the Way issues a call to action. Read
about how reskilling and local food covenants are transforming churches, and how place-based activism and creative
housing are nurturing communities. Learn from those who
are recovering from affluenza, replacing visions of personal
wealth with the commonwealth of the earth and restoring
their humble place in the community of creation. Do you
despair about life on our changing planet? Join the hopeful band of seekers of God and makers of change who are
rewilding the Way.

In churches and kitchens and neighborhood centers across
the world, communities of Jesus-followers are crafting a vision
of radical service, simple living, and commitment to peace.
Many are finding a home in a Christian tradition almost five
centuries old: Anabaptism.
Who are the Anabaptists? What do they believe? Where
did they come from? What makes them different from other
Christians? And can you become an Anabaptist without leaving your own church?
Follow Stuart Murray as he peels back the layers to reveal
the core convictions of Anabaptist Christianity, a way of following Jesus that challenges, disturbs, and inspires. Glimpse
an alternative to nationalistic, materialistic, individualistic
Christian faith. If you are seeking a community of authentic
discipleship, heartfelt worship, sacrificial service, and radical
peacemaking, consider this your invitation.
New to the fifth anniversary edition:
• Voices and stories from young Anabaptists around the
world
• Reflections on the loss of the Christian majority
• Expanded resource guide for further faith and action

The Classic Bestselling Series
The Mennonite History of C. Henry Smith
Perry Bush
2015. 464 pages. HC. 9780836199864. $39.99/$47.99 CAD
PB. 9780836199628. $29.99/$35.99 CAD
BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Religious
Perry Bush is professor
of history at Bluffton (Ohio)
University. He is the author of
Rust Belt Resistance: How a
Small Community Took on Big
Oil and Won; Two Kingdoms,
Two Loyalties: Mennonite
Pacifism in Modern America;
and Dancing with the
Kobzar: Bluffton College and
Mennonite Higher Education.
He and his wife, Elysia, live
in Bluffton, where they are
members of First Mennonite
Church. They are parents of
two daughters and a son.
What does it mean to be Mennonite in the modern world?
And what is the witness of a peace church that is always at
risk of splintering? C. Henry Smith—son of an Amish family,
erudite historian, urbane bank president, and pioneer of
Mennonite scholarship—sought answers to these questions in
the middle of the 20th century, and his answers reverberate
through the church to this day.
In this engaging narrative biography, historian Perry Bush
chronicles Smith’s childhood in an Illinois farming community, his youthful turn toward intellectual inquiry, and his
confidence that Anabaptist faith and life offer gifts to the
wider world. By recounting the story of one of the foremost
Mennonite intellectuals, Bush surveys the storied terrain of
20th-century Mennonite identity in its selective borrowing
from wider culture and its tentative embrace of progressive reforms and higher education. Bush argues that Smith’s
body of historical writing furnished a new generation of
Mennonites with both an understanding of their shared past
and the tools to navigate an ever-shifting present.
Key Features
• Biography of one of the premier Mennonite intellectuals
in the 20th century
• Volume 49 in the Studies in Anabaptist and Mennonite
History series
“
The life of C. Henry Smith illustrates both the perils
and the rewards of navigating the straits between the
Scylla of tradition and the Charybdis of modernity. Perry
Bush brings this story vividly to life, and people of all
faiths will benefit from reading this excellent and wellresearched biography.
”
—Randall Balmer, author of Redeemer: The Life of
Jimmy Carter
“
Perry Bush’s biographical account situates C. Henry
Smith’s legacy as an influential historian in the early,
heady days of Mennonite higher education and in
the framework of American progressivism, with all its
contradictions and limitations. Peace, Progress, and the
Professor is an affectionate, compelling portrait of a
20th-century American Mennonite icon.

2015. 336 pages. PB. 9780836199093. $14.99 USD/$17.99 CAD
Ervin R. Stutzman is author of Tobias of the Amish,
a story of his father’s life and
community, and Emma: A

series is based on the life of

Hochstetler. Stutzman is executive director of Mennonite
Church USA.
Favorite Family Recipes
Unwilling captive or adopted son? Amish teen Joseph
Hochstetler is taken into captivity by Native Americans during
the French and Indian War. Initially he resists the Indians’ attempts to help him adapt to their ways—their food, games,
and relaxed pace of life.
Over time, the kindness of his adoptive Indian mother and
grandmother, a growing affection for life in the village, and
his unfolding romance with a young Indian woman begin
to work on his heart. His eyes newly opened to the wrongs
committed by the white settlers, Joseph determines never to
go back to his Amish community. But the encroaching British
army soon forces the Indians to give up their captives under
threat of death. Based on actual events, Joseph’s Dilemma
narrates one young man’s wrenching decision between his
Amish past, his Indian present, and an unknown future.
Key Features
• Continues the saga of the Hochstetler family begun in
Jacob’s Choice
• Meticulously researched and written by a descendant
of the Hochstelter family in counsel with historians and
Native Americans
• Engaging and entertaining for all readers and especially
history buffs
• A rare look at the overlap of Amish and Native
communities

RELIGION / Christian Ministry / Missions
Stanley W. Green is executive director of Mennonite
Mission Network, the mission agency of Mennonite
Church USA. Born in South
Africa, Green lived under an
apartheid system and first
came to faith while attending
evangelistic meetings.
James R. Krabill has been
a mission worker and a Bible
and church history teacher
in the Ivory Coast and has
worked in mission advocacy
and communication. He currently serves as senior executive for global ministries at
Mennonite Mission Network.
Does your church look and sound and feel like mission?
Mission happens when congregations fully align themselves
with God’s purposes. As the missional church movement
matures, Anabaptists bring a time-honored theological tradition, a contemporary spiritual vitality, and practical stories of
witness to the conversation. How are churches and individuals living out Christ’s call to engage locally and globally? And
how is it changing them in the process?
Featuring the voices of missional Mennonite leaders, Fully
Engaged offers stories and analysis about how mission is
taking shape in local congregations and contexts. A diverse
chorus of Anabaptist pastors and laypeople explores the
roots, tools, and applications of the missional movement.
From nurturing church planting to creating a missional culture
to preaching for missional engagement, Fully Engaged offers
insights and ideas for churches looking for direction.
Key Features
• Stories of congregations living out God’s call in their
neighborhoods and around the world
• Theological grounding for congregations seeking direction for mission
• Anabaptist wisdom applied to a larger conversation
among Christians
• Diverse roster of Anabaptist leaders provides concrete
guidance for churches

This book is a great reminder of the latent potentials
embedded into the Anabaptist tradition.

Jesus surprised and blessed the people he met, and with each
encounter people discovered more about Jesus. Surprise!
Stories of Discovering Jesus allows children to be surprised as
they discover Jesus, too! Each of the five stories in this Biblebased vacation Bible school kit tells about someone surprised
by Jesus. Surprise! invites children from preschool to grade 5
to come along on the journey, to open their eyes, and to see
what Jesus has in store!
The stories come from the Gospels and tell of Jesus surprising leaders in the temple with his wisdom as a child, Jesus
blessing children much to the surprise of the authorities, Jesus
feeding a large crowd with only five loaves and two fish,
Nicodemus seeking Jesus’ wisdom at night, and two travelers on the road surprised by Jesus after his death. With each
surprise, children will discover more about Jesus.
Children in grades K–5 will see Bible stories come to life
in the dramas during worship time, and will reflect on them
during three response times: Bible Response, Active Response,
and Creative Response.
Children ages 4–5 may participate in worship with the
older children or have their own worship time. They too will
share in the Bible story and engage in crafts, games, and
other activities.

Christians throughout the study as well, bringing
together the larger story of our human desire to
be faithful to God as the journey unfolds.

Creating a Scene in Corinth
A Simulation
Reta Halteman Finger and George D. McClain
2013. 264 pages. PB. 9780836197112. $17.99 USD/$21.59 CAD
Creating a Scene in Corinth imaginatively draws readers into
Chloe’s house church, which has just received a letter from
their church planter, the apostle Paul. Using group simulation,
the book brings to life scholarly research on how the gospel
penetrated the Roman Empire. As participants role-play early
believers and debate with each other, they gain new insights
and will never read 1 Corinthians the same way again.
First-century Corinthians were just as human as church
people today. They did not consider Paul’s letters authoritative Scripture when he wrote them, so lively group discussion
and debate are encouraged. This method of Bible study works
for many levels, from youth groups to adult Sunday school
classes, or in college and seminary courses.

Building on the practice of early Anabaptists to discern the
Scriptures together instead of individually, Dig In focuses more
on personal encounters with the texts than on scholarly study.
It asks participants to dig in to their context and experiences
as a lens for interpretation. The 13 sessions include video
segments with personal stories about how people across the
church have been affected by and interpret these Scripture
texts.
This group study comes out of two Mennonite church
efforts to engage Scripture: “Year of the Bible” (Mennonite
Church USA) and “Being a Faithful Church” (Mennonite
Church Canada). Each of the 13 texts chosen has a special
meaning for Mennonites.

En estos tiempos en que el trabajo, la diversión
y los aparatos electrónicos reclaman nuestra
atención, ¿cómo podemos oír y meditar sobre
la Palabra de Dios? ¡A escarbar! es un nuevo
recurso para grupos que desean reunirse en
torno a las Escrituras con el fin de oírlas de
manera renovada, reflexionar sobre las distintas
formas en que influyen en nuestra vida e invitar
al Espíritu a llevarlas a la práctica hoy.
Las trece sesiones se basan en pasajes bíblicos
clave que han sido importantes para los cristianos anabautistas a través de los siglos y que aún
nos desafían a seguir el camino radical de Jesús.
Cada sesión incluye tiempo para compartir historias, información de trasfondo bíblico, videos
cortos de personas comunes que interactúan con
los textos bíblicos, así como lecturas y respuestas
meditativas a las Escrituras. Advertencia: este
estudio no nos permite quedarnos en el pensamiento; nos moviliza a experimentar el obrar de
Dios en nuestra vida.

La relevancia de la enseñanza anabautista

John D. Roth
2015. PB 9780836199437. $12.99 USD/$15.59 CAD
Con los miles de millones de dólares que se destinan por año a la educación de niños y juveniles,
la educación está en la primera plana de las noticias de actualidad. John D. Roth defiende una
alternativa de la iglesia al sistema de la escuela
pública: la alternativa moldeada por el énfasis
distintivo de la tradición anabautista menonita.
Enseñanza que transforma describe una
pedagogía que toma en cuenta la presencia de
Dios en el mundo, cultiva hábitos de adoración,
nutre las tradiciones vivas y promueve relaciones
humanas de compasión y cuidado mutuo.
Roth ofrece un diálogo abierto, animado,
vigoroso y honesto acerca de la naturaleza de
nuestro testimonio cristiano al mundo y del
futuro de la iglesia.

Mennonite Girls Can Cook is a blog about recipes, hospitality, relationships, encouragement, and
helping the hungry—and now the authors of the blog have written two cookbooks. All royalties
from sales of both books are donated to nourish children around the world.
“
As I paged through the recipes and pored over the

about more than just recipes. It’s about hospitality versus entertaining; about blessing versus
impressing. It’s about taking God’s bounty and
cocreating the goodness from God’s creation
into something that can bless family and friends
and help sustain health and energy.
Life is a gift from God, so why not celebrate?
The bestselling authors of Mennonite Girls Can
Cook return with a second course in their new
Celebrations cookbook. Join the girls for brunch
celebrating a child’s birth, campfire cooking with
family, and even the more somber celebration
of a life well lived. Filled from cover to cover
with devotional reflections, personal stories, and
beautiful photos, this book contains much more
than recipes—it will soon become your kitchen
companion for life’s celebrations.

fruits, with less meat, saturated fat, and sugars.

At age 20, Saloma Miller left behind her Amish community in Burton,
Ohio, and boarded a night train for Vermont, where she knew no one.
In the pages of this poignant coming-of-age memoir, a former Amish
woman offers a universal story of overcoming adversity and a rare look
inside an Amish community. Readers will find in it a compelling true story:
of woundedness and healing, of doubt and faith, of leaving the Amish
church and returning and then leaving again, and of the often competing
desires for freedom and belonging.

In Ordinary Miracles, Mennonite minister and blogger Rachel S. Gerber
gives voice to the grit of parenting with stories of hope. Like the disciples
on the road to Emmaus, who failed at first to recognize Christ walking
beside them, Rachel learns to discover the gifts and holy calling hidden in
the events of harried family life.
Overburdened parents will find reassurance in Rachel’s own story of
how, in her darkest hour of disorientation, in the most mundane and ordinary days of motherhood, and in moments of exhilaration, joy and beauty,
God is present.

Does the criminal justice system actually help victims and offenders? What
does justice look like for those who have been harmed? For those who
have done harm? Twenty-five years after it was first published Changing
Lenses remains the classic, go-to text of the restorative justice field.
Now with valuable author updates on the changing landscape of restorative justice and a new section of resources for practitioners and teachers,
Changing Lenses offers a framework for understanding crime, injury, accountability, and healing from a restorative perspective.

In 1980, before living simply and “green” became trendy and popular,
Doris Janzen Longacre wrote Living More with Less, a practical guide for
living in simple, sustainable, and healthy ways—ways that keep the future
of the planet, and the plight of poor people, in mind.
Revised and updated by Valerie Weaver-Zercher, this 30th anniversary
edition is true to author Doris’ spirit of living in ways that keeps poor
people, God’s creation, and each other in mind—and is loaded with new
and practical tips in areas such as money, travel, clothing, housing, celebrations and recreation.
Biblical Studies
Creating a Scene in Corinth
A Simulation
Reta Halteman Finger and George D. McClain
2013. 264 pages. PB. 9780836197112. $17.99 USD/$21.59 CAD
Creating a Scene imaginatively draws readers into Chloe’s house church,
which has just received a letter from the apostle Paul. Using group simulation, the book brings to life scholarly research on how the gospel penetrated the Roman Empire.
First-century Corinthians were just as human as church people today.
They did not consider Paul’s letters authoritative Scripture when he wrote
them, so lively group discussion and debate are encouraged. This method
of Bible study works for many levels, from youth groups to Sunday school
classes, or in college and seminary courses.

In 13 chapters, David Ewert
shares guidelines on studying the
Scriptures. We who take the Bible
seriously want to understand the
texts correctly. We puzzle over differing applications of the Bible in
the church. Ewert helps us avoid
pitfalls in interpreting the Scriptures.

Before John Howard Yoder there
was Guy F. Hershberger, whose

Ervin R. Stutzman
2011. 424 pages. HC. 9780836195088
$39.99 USD/$47.99 CAD
The more things change, the
more they stay the same. From
Nonresistance to Justice explores
how this is true when it comes
to teaching about peace for the
former Mennonite Church, now
part of Mennonite Church USA. Has
the church changed in regard to its
beliefs and practices about peace
over the past one hundred years?
Yes. Has it remained the same? Yes.
Reading this book will show that
both are true.

What does it mean to “make
peace”? Between 1951 and 1976
some 1,200 young men refused
to join the military. Their religious
beliefs forbade their taking another
human life. Instead, they volunteered to build homes for WWII
refugees, taught African subsistence
farmers modern farming methods,
helped Greek villages preserve food
for the winter months, and built a
road through the Green Hell of the
Paraguayan Chaco.

stories of restored faith and love. Swartz’s engaging humor blends with his
own stories of triumph and tragedy, and helps readers understand their own
sense of place and how they’re shaped by those around them.
