Medieval Lyric
"An essential volume for medievalists and scholars of comparative literature, Medieval Lyric opens up a reconsideration of genre in medieval European lyric. Departing from a perspective that asks how medieval genres correspond with twentieth-century ideas of structure or with the evolution of poetry, this collection argues that the development of genres should be considered as a historical phenomenon, embedded in a given culture and responsive to social and literary change.".

Ethics in Contexts
The essays in this volume are an expression of appreciation of Wendell Lee Willis, who recently retired after a distinguished career as a classroom teacher, colleague, and scholar. Current and former colleagues have written to advance Wendell’s research interests in the various contexts of early Christianity, particularly in the apostle Paul, New Testament ethics, and ecclesiology. Essays include discussions of issues related to Paul's correspondence with the church in Corinth and the depiction of Paul in Acts, Jesus’s parables, meals, and the religious and socio-political world in which Christianity arose.
The Outcast
"The typical modern American family; sibling rivalry, disobeying your parents, the confused rebellious teenager. Will he fit in or fall by the wayside forever? Everybody is so focused on Allison, Do we tell Mom and Dad she's dating that kid? Can we blackmail her into relaizing what's good and what's not? Scottie stays quietly in the background with little notice. He's the quiet, perfect kid; what could go wrong? Soon the others realize Scottie is acting... different than usual. It could just be a random teenage phase or getting used to high school, but... I can't explain it. I guess you could call it a gut feeling or whatever. Kurt Larsen, the school bully: I know I haven't been the nicest person to Scott but I'm worried about him. "Scottie! Oh, Scottie please, no." Scottie was slumped against the wall, a bottle lay just inches from his limp right hand. Will Scott survive Allie's drama?" An american family of 12 trying to find their own way in life and encountering hardships and bonds of love.
The New Testament Church
Christian communities today face enormous challenges in the new contexts and teachings that try to redefine what churches should be. Christians look to the New Testament for a pattern for the church, but the New Testament does not present a totally uniform picture of the structure, leadership, and sacraments practiced by first-century congregations. There was a unity of the Christian communities centered on the teaching that Jesus is the Christ, whom God has raised from the dead and has enthroned as Lord, yet not every assembly did exactly the same thing and saw themselves in exactly the same way. Rather, in the New Testament we find a collage of rich theological insights into what it means to be the church. When leaders of today see this diversity, they can look for New Testament ecclesiologies that are most relevant to the social and cultural context in which their community lives. This volume of essays, written with the latest scholarship, highlights the uniqueness of individual ecclesiologies of the various New Testament documents and their core unifying themes.
