God, Grace and the Gospel
In "God, Grace and the Gospel," Daniel Thimell draws upon years of experience in the pulpit, hospital as well as the classroom, as he explores some of the most important questions regarding the nature of God and the Christian life. Drawing upon a vibrant Trinitarian-incarnational theology, this book shows that the basis for our life in Christ is not our performance, our piety, our even our best efforts, but the self-giving of God in the life, death and resurrection of his Son.
Ephesians
This commentary, written from a distinctively Pentecostal perspective, is primarily for pastors, lay persons and Bible students. It is based upon the best scholarship, written in popular language, and communicates the meaning of the text with minimal technical distractions. This author offers a running exposition on the text and extended comments on matters of special significance for Pentecostals. He acknowledges and interacts with alternative interpretations of individual passages, and his commentary also provides periodic opportunities for reflection upon and personal response to the biblical text.
Brevard Childs, Biblical Theologian
Originally presented as the author's thesis (Ph.D. - St. Andrews) under the title: Brevard Childs: the logic of scripture's textual authoriy in the mystery of Christ.
The Bible as Christian Scripture
This memorial volume both displays and evaluates the canonical approach of Brevard S. Childs, whose attention to history through time animated his interest in the Bible’s use in the church through the ages up to and including the present. Just as Childs wrote on a wide range of topics canonical and theological—both Testaments, Isaiah and Exodus, the Pauline letters, the history of biblical interpretation, biblical theology, and historical, theological, and methodological questions—the contributors to this volume, seasoned colleagues as well as younger scholars who studied with Childs, offer an international collection of historical, theological, and New Testament essays as well as contributions focused on the Old Testament. The contributors are Stephen B. Chapman, Brevard S. Childs, Don Collett, Daniel R. Driver, Mark W. Elliott, Leonard G. Finn, Mark Gignilliat, Bernd Janowski, Jörg Jeremias, Leander E. Keck, Neil B. MacDonald, David L. Petersen, Murray A. Rae, C. Kavin Rowe, and Christopher R. Seitz.
Redeemer, Friend and Mother
How wide a range of ideas was used by early Christians to proclaim redemption through Jesus Christ? What did the followers of Jesus do about concepts of shame, death, suffering, forgiveness, and friendship? And how did their beliefs relate to the lives and thoughts of actual persons in the Graeco-Roman world including women? Author J. Massyngbaerde Ford opens a new vista on the ancient world of Bible times.
The Grace of Sophia
Korean North American women live with a legacy of severe oppression, which has been passed down through generations. In Korea, women suffered under prevailing religious beliefs and cultural practices. When they immigrated to North America, they remained dominated and subordinated, due to barriers such as racism, classism, and sexism. Grace Ji-Sun Kim asks, what is the "good news" for these women, and how can they come to understand God is with them? Kim's visionary work is also a pioneering effort -- Korean North American women's theology is in an early stage of development and she is one of only a few Korean North American women theologians. Kim exposes an additional layer of oppression for...
Clearing a Space for Human Action
Clearing a Space for Human Action demonstrates how Karl Barth's concern for ethical description cannot be separated from his concern for a proper theological description of the God-human relationship. Early in his career, Barth attempted to describe human ethical agency in terms that respected the co-inherence of dogmatics and ethics, but in such a way that neither human nor divine agency suffered absorption into the other. This book's conclusion calls for a treatment of Barth's Dogmatics as a sustained theological ethical ontology. Only then can we hope to understand Barth's treatment of the human and the Divine in other parts of the Dogmatics.
