Intercessory Prayer
How is prayer possible? How does prayer work? Why is it necessary to ask for God's gifts? Intercessory Prayer attempts to provide answers to questions about the nature of intercessory prayer. Critically examining biblical teaching and modern theological and philosophical thinking, this book shows how intercessory prayer may be seen as one of the means by which God enlists the freely-given cooperation of human persons in the realisation of the divine purpose. Clements-Jewery adopts a process view of the universe to show how intercession both makes certain possibilities greater and strengthens the likelihood of response, so that people who pray may have every confidence that their prayers will make a difference to the world through the God who both influences and is influenced by the creation.
Living with God
What is the relation between human life on earth and 'life' after death in the theology of Saint Thomas Aquinas (1224/5-1274)? In this study this question is dealt with from the perspective of the foundations, dynamism and perfection of the human relationship with God. It is shown how Aquinas' ('negative') theological analysis of 'life' as a name of God works out in qualifying his account of both human life on earth and 'life' after death as two interrelated modes of living with God. Written at an accessible level and having the width of a thematic study on the key-word 'life', this book can also be read as an introduction to the theology of Thomas Aquinas.
Scholasticism Reformed
The essays collected in Reformed Scholasticism continue Willem van Asselt's endeavours towards a reassessment of (Reformed) scholasticism through various historical case studies and theological analyses, while they also criticize various aspects of this reassessment.

Weal and Woe
This book explores the connections between salvation and evil in their Christian, religious, and non-religious shapes. How are our biographies embedded in the Christian tradition and the surrounding culture? How do we deal with experiences of evil and how do we yearn for or enact shalom? The Kampen research group in practical theology and ethics explores these concepts and argues for a multidimensional understanding.
