Constantinople to Chalcedon
An exploration of the theological turmoil of the fifth-century church, and the impact it had on the future of Western Europe.
Paul as Pastor
When we think of the apostle Paul, 'pastor' is not usually the first word that springs to mind. He may seem too intellectual, too tempestuous and fiery, even too determinedly pioneering, to fall into the 'pastoral' category. This book demonstrates that, at heart, Paul was indeed too multi-faceted in both background and ministry to be defined by a single function. He was an apostle, prophet, evangelist, teacher - but he was also a pastor, as emerges from reading the epistles that record his teaching and care of the churches he planted or nurtured. Author Patrick Whitworth makes the case for Paul's extraordinary teaching - for which he is justifiably most celebrated - being a product of his pastoral care, which was itself a product of his pioneering and prophetic evangelism. Perhaps he was an unlikely pastor, but he was above all passionate, and an inspiration to pastors everywhere, to be studied and emulated, fathomed and then followed. The book includes a study guide with a wealth of questions for group discussion linked to each chapter.

Prepare for Exile
The Church today must throw off old attitudes, renew its spirituality and refocus its mission, if it is to flourish as it enters a new period of exile. Preparing for exile and living in it means learning from those who were 'exiles' in their own day - men and women who challenged the Church to reshape itself, to remain fresh and engaging. Exiles from the Bible and from all traditions of the Church are recalled: Benedict, who formed the Western monastic tradition; Catholic mystics, such as Teresa of Avila and John of the Cross, who encouraged a new spirituality; Luther, Pascal and Wesley who challenged the religious hegemonies of their day. While drawing strength from past experiences of exil...

Understanding Revolution
Understanding Revolution concisely, but thoroughly, explains one of the most fundamental sources of political change in the modern world. Designed to be accessible to undergraduate students, the book systematically explores such questions as: What should be defined as a revolution? Is there a typical pattern to the course of a revolution? What are the roles of ideologies, structures (e.g., the state, class structures, the international system), and individuals in shaping revolutions? What causes groups to mobilize behind revolutionary leaders? What happens after a revolutionary group assumes power, or fails?The discussion highlights points of agreement and debate within the social science literature, and brief case studies of revolutions and revolutionary movements bring concepts to life.
