Way Into Narnia
$25.99With a new film version of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” due to be released later this year and more films on their way, C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia are back in the public eye. How did a middle-aged professor with no children write books that have become cherished classics of children’s literature? And why have they remained so popular? “The Way into Narnia” is the perfect companion for first-time visitors to Narnia, while full of fresh insights for those who have already traveled there often.
Exploring ideas from “On Fairy-Stories,” the influential essay by Lewis’s friend J. R. R. Tolkien, veteran Lewis scholar Peter Schakel suggests that the best way to enter Narnia is to read the Chronicles as fairy tales. Taking a chapter for each of the Chronicles, he walks readers through the works, concluding the tour with a unique and practical section of notes on all seven volumes. These annotations clarify unfamiliar words, pick out allusions, highlight significant details, and offer interpretive comments on problematic passages.This is the practical companion you will need for your next journey through the Chronicles of Narnia.

Her Heart Can See
$38.99Her Heart Can See offers an intimate, informed look at Fanny J. Crosby (1820-1915), the most prolific of all American hymn writers. Having lost her sight in infancy through a doctor’s negligence, Fanny went on to compose more than 9,000 hymns, as well as various other songs, cantatas, and lyrical productions. Crosby’s hymns, including such all-time favorites as “Blessed Assurance,” “Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior,” “Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross,” “Rescue the Perishing,” “Safe in the Arms of Jesus,” and “I Am Thine, O Lord,” continue to be sung around the world.
Celebrated in her own day for her gospel hymns, Crosby was also very publicly involved with New York City’s rescue missions and with other benevolent efforts. She rubbed shoulders with the likes of Henry Clay, Grover Cleveland, Winfield Scott, Dwight L. Moody, Ira Sankey, Jenny Lind, P. T. Barnum, and many other famous figures who people these pages. More than two dozen black-and-white photographs depict the people and settings among which Crosby moved.
Drawing on primary sources – including thousands of unpublished Crosby manuscripts – Edith Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable woman. Blumhofer responsibly limns Crosby’s life as a gifted nineteenth-century northeastern Protestant woman, in the process showing why “this diminutive woman” was – and is – so beloved.

Origins Of Tolkiens Middle Earth For Dummies
$22.99J.R.R. Toklien’s novels of Middle-earth-The Hobbit, The Lord Of The Rings trilogy, and The Silmarillian-have become some of the most famous, and most beloved, literary works of the twentieth century. And the Lord Of The Rings films by director Peter Jackson have re-ignited interest in Tolkien and his works, as well as introduced his stories to a new generation of fans.
Even if you’ve never read the novels and have only seen the films, you know that the world of Middle-earth is a complicated one. Tolkien took great care in representing this world, from creating new language to including very particular cultural details that add to the richness of the world’s fabric. Many other books have been written about Tolkien and his works, but none have come close to providing the kind of reference needed to comprehend the world of Middle-earth. That’s what veteran Dummies author and unabashed Tolkien fan Greg Harvey attempts to do in The Origins Of Tolkien’s Middle-earth For Dummies.

Global Bible Commentary
$45.99The Global Bible Commentary invites its users to expand their horizon by reading the Bible with scholars from all over the world and from different religious persuasions. These scholars have approaches and concerns that often are poles apart.

Each of the short commentaries of the Global Bible Commentary is a readily accessible guide for reading a biblical book. Written for undergraduate and seminary students and their teachers, as well as for pastors, priests, and Adult Sunday School classes, it introduces the users to the main features of the biblical book and its content.
Yet each short commentary does more. It also brings us a precious gift, namely the opportunity of reading this biblical book as if for the first time. By making explicit the specific context and the concerns from which she/he reads the Bible, the scholar points out to us the significance of aspects of the biblical text that we simply took for granted or overlooked.

Recultivating The Vineyard
$45.00Scott Hendrix argues in this book that the sixteenth-century Reformers all shared the same goal–to replant authentic Christianity in the vineyard of the Lord, the same European Christendom which, they believed, had been devastated by the medieval church. Thus he believes it is more accurate and useful to speak of one Reformation and to locate its diversity in the various theological and practical agendas that were developed to realize their goal of Christianization. Hendrix emphasizes the common concern of the reformers rather than the better known conflicts that developed among them, and he chooses the term “Christianization,” whose goal embraced Catholic as well as Protestant reform, for that concern in order to denote the unity in their goals and express both continuity and discontinuity between the Middle Ages and the Reformation.

$43.33The cross alone is our theology,” said Martin Luther. Yet over the last two decades, the idea of atonement has come under heavy attack from feminist theologians and others who argue that traditional formulations valorize suffering. Deanna Thompson takes up this challenge forthrightly in this creative and nuanced argument. Directly engaging with Martin Luther’s thought and his Heidelberg Disputation, as well as with feminist theologies, Thompson constructs a promising and life-giving theology of the cross.

Bonhoeffer Phenomenon : Portraits Of A Protestant Saint
$38.33Stephen Haynes offers a provocative assessment of the Bonhoeffer mystique, which interprets Bonhoeffer’s legacy through the medium of sainthood. Before casting an eye on the great pastor-theologian through a hagiographic lens, Haynes examines various receptions and appropriations of Bonhoeffer from different theological, ecclesial, and political contexts. Bonhoeffer is viewed from such divergent perspectives as radical theology and politics (exemplified in “death of God” theology), liberal theology and social ethics, conservative popular Christianity and evangelicalism, and lastly, the universal portrait of Bonhoeffer, which highlights his ecumenical significance. The Bonhoeffer Phenomenon provides an invaluable introduction to Bonhoeffer studies, while also offering its own unique analysis of Bonhoeffer’s life and thought.

We fight everything from simple misunderstandings to gross injustices. We experience health problems, economic downturns, and moral failure. From loved ones to leaders, we sometimes find ourselves deceived or betrayed. There are times and seasons in everyone’s life where it seems like there’s no one on earth to trust. However, we have a Heavenly Father Who loves and cares for us. As we grow in our personal relationship with God, He develops a history of Himself in each one of our lives as He leads us victoriously through life’s seasons and daily challenges. God in His Word teaches us how to forgive, how to cast aside bitterness, how to pray and how to go on. He brings victory into the darkest places. His purpose is not always to shield us from adversity, misunderstandings and heartache, but He walks with us and leads us through life’s difficult seasons in victorious ways. The Biblical Survival Manual is a unique compilation of God’s Word, providing guidance for us as we journey through life. Amongst other things, this manual serves as: A Book of Encouragement meant to strengthen those going through the difficult seasons of life A Book of Inspiration for those seeking to learn more about the mercy, faithfulness and love of God A Book of Prayer & Spiritual Warfare for those willing to enter into intercessory prayer for others A Book of Reconciliation for those seeking to return home after a prodigal’s journey A Scriptural Guide & Reference for all those seeking after God’s heart and desiring to know His truth This manual is meant to enrich and strengthen you in your own unique journey. Read it, enjoy it and treasure it! You will not only want copies of this valuable reference for yourself, but copies also for your cherished friends, family members and associates.

Roman Wives Roman Widows
$30.99In Roman law you were what you wore. This legal principle became highly significant because, beginning in the first century A.D., a “new” kind of woman emerged across the Roman empire a woman whose provocative dress and sometimes promiscuous lifestyle contrasted starkly with the decorum of the traditional married woman. What a woman chose to wear came to identify her as either “new” or “modest.”
Augustus legislated against the “new” woman. Philosophical schools encouraged their followers to avoid embracing her way of life. And, as this fascinating book demonstrates for the first time, the presence of the “new” woman was also felt in the early church, where Christian wives and widows were exhorted to emulate neither her dress code nor her conduct.
Using his extensive knowledge both of the Graeco-Roman world and of the New Testament writings, Bruce Winter shows how changing social mores among women impacted the Pauline communities. This helps to explain the controversial texts on marriage veils in 1 Corinthians, instructions in 1 Timothy regarding dress code and the activities of young widows, and exhortations in Titus for older women to call new wives “back to their senses” regarding their marriage and family responsibilities.
Based on a close investigation of neglected literary and archaeological evidence, “Roman Wives, Roman Widows” makes groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of first-century women, including their participation in public life as lawyers, magistrates, and political figures, which in turn affected women’s ministry in the Pauline communities.

From Preachers To Suffragists
$47.00The women’s rights movement in nineteenth-century America has primarily been interpreted as a secular movement. However, in From Preachers to Suffragists, Beverly Zink-Sawyer examines the lives of three nineteenth-century clergywomen–Antoinette Brown Blackwell, Olympia Brown, and Anna Howard Shaw–who, seeing their calling to the suffrage movement as an extension of their call to ministry, left the parish to join and become leaders in the movement. Zink-Sawyer tells the stories of their courageous lives, quoting their sermons and writings and tracing their struggles before and after ordination. In doing so, she persuasively demonstrates the vital importance of these leaders–of their religious rhetoric and their theological leadership–in shaping the movement as a whole, reclaiming its religious roots and making a major, even corrective, contribution to American history.

Use Of The Septuagint In New Testament Research
$33.99Too often the Septuagint is misunderstood or, worse, ignored in New Testament studies. In this book R. Timothy McLay makes a sustained argument for the influence of the Greek Jewish Scriptures on the New Testament and offers basic principles for bridging the research gap between these two critical texts.
McLay explains the use of the Septuagint in the New Testament by looking in depth at actual New Testament citations of the Jewish Scriptures. This work reveals the true extent of the Septuagint’s impact on the text and theology of the New Testament. Indeed, given the textual diversity that existed during the first century, the Jewish Scriptures as they were known, read, and interpreted in the Greek language provided the basis for much, if not most, of the interpretive context of the New Testament writers.
Complete with English translations, a glossary of terms, an extensive bibliography, and helpful indexes, this book will give readers a new appreciation of the Septuagint as an important tool for interpreting the New Testament.

Pocket Dictionary Of Ethics

But few of us arrive in our first ethics class–or take our seat on an ethics committee–with a grip on the range of ideas and thinkers, perspectives and pitfalls that make up this ancient conversation about what is good and right and moral. We may feel like college math students who slipped through high school without learning algebra.
The Pocket Dictionary of Ethics is a convenient boost to help you catch up.
Among the 300 definitions provided by Stanley J. Grenz and Jay T. Smith are
terms, from altruism to virtue
issues, from animal rights to war
ethicists, from Saint Augustine to Peter Singer
perspectives, from Aristotelianism to utilitarianism
marketplace specialties, from advertising to technological ethics

Pauls Metaphors : Their Context And Character
$43.00Paul’s writings are laced with vivid images from the bustling New Testament world. To understand these metaphors, David J. Williams delves into that Greco-Roman world and uses ancient sources to explore a wide variety of topics such as architecture, law, commerce, health care, and education. Williams studies this world in chapters with titles such as “Life in the City,” “Family Life,” “Slavery and Freedom,” “Citizens and Courts of Law,” “Travel,” and “Warfare and Soldering.”
Paul’s metaphors, set apart in bold type, are examined in the light of this background information and restored to their original vitality. Well-known metaphors-the Christian as a slave of Christ, the church as a body, Paul’s two natures being at war within him, the Christian as an athlete striving toward the prize, Jesus’ return as a thief in the night, Christians as adopted heirs of God-and lesser-known metaphors come to life for the modern reader through Williams’s careful exposition.
The main text is accessible to the general reader; scholars will appreciate footnotes that discuss the Greek text and provide resources for further study. Appendix 1 lists a select chronology of the Roman Empire and appendix 2 provides dates and descriptions of significant ancient authors and tests. Scripture, ancient source, and modern author indexes add to the usefulness of this work.

Father Found : Life And Death As A Prisoner Of The Japanese In World War 2
$36.23Father Found reconnects a son with his father, who had volunteered from the California National Guard in pre-World War II days for active duty in the Philippines. War commenced and after time on Bataan and Corregidor, the father became a POW in early 1942. Shifted through numerous POW camps over three years, he was placed on the last prison ship to Japan three weeks before American forces arrived in the area. After two different bombing attacks he died, seven months before war’s end. The author weaves the story through interviews with men who knew his father, who were in the same camps, and who experienced and endured similar conditions. The story is told primarily from first-hand reports, diaries, journals, and scraps of paper, often buried and later recovered or hand carried to liberation. The few twenty-five word POW cards that arrived from the camps are shared. Letters to the family from surviving friends give glimpses of life, friendships made, and stories told. The author examines the war years within the hopes, concerns, and feelings of both POWs and families at home. The author tells of his own journey over these years as his research and memory provided it.

Bonhoeffer : An Introduction Through Drama
$20.61Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German theologian executed on Hitler’s orders in the closing days of World War II. Striving to center his life on God’s will, Bonhoeffer returned to his native Germany just before the outset of the war. There he served in the so called “Confessing Church,” composed of churches whose pastors, among other things, refused to take an oath to Adolf Hitler. Eventually, Dietrich became involved in representing the German Resistance abroad, believing he had a Christian obligation to help overthrow an indelibly evil government. He was imprisoned in early 1943. Until late 1944, the Nazis failed to understand that Bonhoeffer had played a key role in the Resistance. Once his role surfaced, Dietrich was doomed to the fate of those involved in the July 1944 assassination attempt on Hitler’s life. The play Bonhoeffer focuses on Bonhoeffer’s spiritual struggles following his effort to communicate with the British government in 1942 until his execution in 1945. It provides a dramatic and instructive introduction to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, to his times, and to his witness against unremitting evil. Bonhoeffer lends itself to theatrical production, to altar dramas, and to reading by groups of people.

An expert on the context in which Christianity arose, Riley maps out a new understanding of the forging of Christianity, and conveys a vital message for today about the true nature of Christian faith as inherently diverse.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Critical History Of Philosophy 1
$52.48We will not hesitate to say that this is one of the most important books ever given to man. At age 83, it was no accidental production, but a profound masterpiece produced over fifty years of the most intense reflection and thirty years of teaching on the subject as president of colleges and as professor of mental philosophy while displaying the deepest virtue and usefulness. Before Critical History, all such philosophical histories were the gloomy revelation of the contradictory errors of men, and the natural result was pessimistic skepticism. But the author has rather sanctified the science–gleaning the truth from all who discovered it. At the same time, he more than just exposed the mistakes and sins of all contrary systems, but also gave us the reasons for departure and the fully justified–and undeniable–reality that fills in the void. This original analysis not only solves the great world problems but also gives hope to the student where all other histories have left us in contradictory despair.

10 Commandments And Their Influence On American Law
$19.99An in-depth study of how the Ten Commandments impacted the development of laws in America and influenced the legal philosophy of government framers. For example, the 4th Commandment-“Keey Holy the Sabbath” was cited in PENNSYLVANIA’S FRAME OF GOVERNMENT, April 25, 1682, Article XXII: “That as often as any day of the month….shall fall upon the first day of the week, commonly called the Lord’s Day, the business appointed for that day shall be deferred till the next day” and the US Constitution, 1787, Art.I, Sec. 7 “If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days (Sundays excepted)…the Same shall be a Law”. Read how the Ten Commandments affected the views of America’s leaders: “The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul. I don’t think we emphasize that enough these days.”-Harry S. Truman, February 15, 1950, Attorney General’s Conference.
