Anonymous Christians
This book explores the relationship of clergy to Twelve Step programs. Field research of pastors in the Florida Keys found that they are unsure if addiction is a disease or a sin, and whether the Twelve Steps are based on Christianity. Lessons learned include the validity of both traditional Twelve Step programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Christ-centered programs such as Celebrate Recovery, the coherence of sin and disease explanations of addiction, and the significance of modern addiction theory. The specific outcome of this study is the development of a course syllabus for clergy on addiction recovery through Twelve Step philosophy.
Anonymous
In Anonymous, learn to recognize the riches in the uncelebrated seasons of your life. When your potential is unseen and your abilities are unappreciated, use those times as opportunities to develop an unshakable identity and to find rest in God's timing—just as Jesus did. Unsettling spaces are actually the surprising birthplace of true spiritual strength. Most of Jesus’ first thirty years went unnoticed by the world, but that season of quiet anonymity prepared Him for true greatness...and made Him unshakable when His time had come. Using Jesus' hidden years as inspiration, Alicia Chole memorably demonstrates how to: Resist resentment when your accomplishments go unnoticed Repurpose your own hidden years and experience deep growth Resolutely live out God's dreams for you with integrity and confidence We all experience times of hiddenness, when our potential is unseen and our abilities remain uncelebrated. This book will encourage you to not rush through those times by reminding you that these anonymous seasons of the soul hold enormous power to cultivate character traits that cannot be developed any other way!

Faith Seeking Understanding
Daniel Migliore's Faith Seeking Understanding has been a standard introduction to Christian theology for more than a decade. The book's presentation of traditional doctrine in freshly contemporary ways, its concern to hear and critically engage new voices in theology, and its creative and accessible style have kept it one of the most stimulating, balanced, and readable guides to theology available. This second edition of Faith Seeking Understanding features improvements from cover to cover. Besides updating and expanding the entire text of the book, Migliore has added two completely new chapters. The first, "Confessing Jesus Christ in Context," explores the unique contributions to Christian ...
Embracing Obscurity
Argues for a life based on humility, service, and sacrifice instead of the accepted worldview of a life valuing fame and recognition.
The Anonymous Christian - a Relativised Christianity?
It is difficult today to reconcile the possibility of salvation for all while at the same time recognising the necessity of the Church for salvation. Karl Rahner's theory of the anonymous Christian provides a way of dealing with this dilemma. Hans Urs von Balthasar was not convinced and severely critiqued Rahner's position for over twenty years. In this work Conway examines their arguments and shows that they were not as far apart as they themselves may have thought. He concludes that a relativisation of the Church and Christ is not an inevitable consequence of providing a credible account of the possibility of salvation of the non-baptised.

The Anonymous Witness
It was on an otherwise uneventful Sunday morning in early Spring when the minister of a small Methodist church in Appalachia provided a sermon based on the 23rd Psalm of the Holy Bible. He reminded his meager congregation that they should not fear the act of witnessing for Jesus Christ, even if it takes them into the proverbial Valley of Darkness. Little did the pastor realize that his routine sermon would result in the book that you now hold in your hands - a revolutionary approach not only to witnessing, but to modern day Christianity itself. As a curious reader, you will soon recognize why this manifesto was written anonymously and you may even come to the conclusion that you too can be considered an "Anonymous Witness."
