Living Hope
"Eschatology," the theological name for the study of the endtime, often conjures up frightening concepts of the rapture, the final judgment, heaven and hell, Armageddon, and the anti-Christ. Author David Jensen's theological approach offers a brighter perspective on the end-time as a time of hope when Christians will see the full glory of the Kingdom of God, the resurrection of the body, and Christ's promised return.
God, Desire, and a Theology of Human Sexuality
This work of constructive theology examines human sexuality in light of Christian faith and doctrine. Jensen moves beyond the hot-button social debates about sexual orientation and sexual practices to look for healing. The seven chapters consider Scripture and sex; the connections between the triune, covenantal God and human sexuality; Christ's incarnation and resurrection as affirming the beauty of flesh; eschatology and sexual identity; the ramifications of the Lord's Supper for human sexuality; vocation and Christian callings to marriage, celibacy, and singleness; and sexual ethics.

We spend most of our waking hours working, but we rarely consider its theological meanings or implications.

Darby Ray, lifts up key insights from Christian scripture and tradition and considers their implications for today's complex, globalized world of work.
Parenting
"This lively volume attempts to show how central Christian convictions inform the age-old practices of parenting and how the experience and practice of parenting shape Christian faith today. By paying special attention to some of the challenges and issues of parenting in a globalized world, the book offers a fresh vision of parenting that promotes justice, human flourishing, and recognition that all people are children of God" -- Publisher description.
Clothing
Reinhold Niebuhr argued that one of the fundamental challenges to human existence is the anxiety caused by our desire to be perfect and godlike while knowing we are limited and mortal. This book explores how human adornment practices negotiate anxieties about our finitude. Through our clothing, we often shield ourselves from feeling our human frailty and from having others detect our emotional, physical, and spiritual vulnerabilities. Looking at the incarnation as a form of dress, Saracino claims that getting naked with Jesus or embracing our vulnerability is our only hope at creating life-giving relationships with God and others in the global world.

A must-read for anyone interested in therapy and the healing process."--Henry Abramovitch, Founding President, Israel Institute of Jungian Psychology"Soul Circles offers a powerful visual journey into a living individuation process. The dialogue between the partners is fresh and informative, respectful of personal details while highlighting a transformational process captured in mandala imagery."--Joe Cambray, President, Pacifica Graduate Institute"Soul Circles is a beautiful document of the self-regulating function of the psyche and the healing that comes through accepting and giving space to the creative urge that accompanies this function. It demonstrates the importance of a relationship of trust and empathy for the unfolding of the inner process.
