Providence : A Biblical, Historical, And Theological Account
$34.00Add to cartAddressing a topic of perennial interest in Christian theology, this volume offers a constructive account of the doctrine of providence. Mark Elliott shows that, contrary to received opinion, the Bible has a lot to say about providence as a distinct doctrine within the wider scope of God’s acts of salvation. This book by a leading scholar of Christian theology and exegesis is a capstone of years of research on the history and theology of the doctrine of providence.

Little Star
$15.99Add to cartTonight a king will be born, and all the stars in heaven are competing to see who can shine the brightest for him. But when the stars see the poor family huddling in the shabby stable, they begin to think that this baby couldn’t be a king after all! That is, all the stars except the smallest, loneliest star in the sky, Little Star. He recognizes the baby Jesus as the King of kings and understands His special message of love.
Read on to discover the extraordinary way Little Star serves his King on that cold, dark night. Certain to become a Christmas classic, this delightful tale connects the star atop the Christmas tree to the true meaning of Christmas–the birth of Jesus.

Genesis And Christian Theology
$39.99Add to cartIn recent years, the disciplines of biblical studies and systematic theology have grown apart and largely lost the means of effective communication with one another. Unfortunately, this relational disconnect affects more than just these particular fields of study – it impacts the life of the church as a whole. The third St. Andrews Conference on Scripture and Theology brought together leading biblical scholars and systematic theologians, seeking to bridge the gap between them, and this book is the result.
In Genesis and Christian Theology sixteen scholars consider Genesis – one of the richest resources for Jewish and Christian theological reflection – in dialogue with historical and contemporary theological reflection. The essays offer new vistas on familiar texts, reawakening past debates and challenging modern cliches.
