Faith and Understanding $26 “Beginning with Augustine, philosophers and theologians have felt it necessary not only to cogently articulate the content of the Christian faith but also to defend philosophically the reasonableness of faith itself. Faith and Understanding is the first book-length study of the “faith seeking understanding” program and the central issues that arise from it-the relation between faith and reason, the claims of natural theology, and the pursuit of the vision of God.In Part One Paul Helm provides a general discussion of these themes, seeking both to contextualize the debate and to engage with contemporary philosophical discussion of the relation between faith, reason, and understanding.Part Two contains five case studies that illustrate the work of seminal figures in the tradition. They include treatments of Augustine on time and creation, Anselm on the ontological argument and the necessity of the atonement, Jonathan Edwards on the nature of personal identity, and John Calvin and the sensus divinitatis, focusing on the way in which Calvin has been appealed to by contemporary Reformed epistemology.Providing a modern treatment of an abiding theme in the philosophy of religion, this book is a clearly written introduction to the subject.” |

Different Gospel : Biblical And Historical Insights Into The Word Of Faith $16.95 “A DIFFERENT GOSPEL: UPDATED EDITIONForewarned is forearmedEvery Christian should read this book in order to be aware of the dangerous implications of the widespread and cultic Word of Faith movement preaching what is popularly known as “Name It and Claim It” theology. A DIFFERENT GOSPEL is a bold and revealing examination of the biblical and historical basis of this movement. This new and revised edition is complete with a foreword by Hank Hanegraaff, author of Christianity in Crisis, and a new afterword by D. R. McConnell.The author knows the movement first hand and has a heart for those snared by it. He is also an academically trained observer who has based this work on careful historical and biblical analysis. McConnell warns of the movement’s cultic nature in its doctrine of healing and its understanding of the atonement and demonstrates how far the movement’s doctrine of prosperity is from Scripture’s true teaching.A DIFFERENT GOSPEL, a book for the heart and mind, is must reading for those who seek reliable information about the Word of Faith movement.” |

God’s Truth Revealed: Biblical Foundations for the Christian Faith $14.99 “Spiritual seekers are looking for more than life experiences that continually fail to satisfy. This 12session study presents the basic beliefs of Christianity in a way that is engaging, personal, thoroughly biblical and ultimately satisfying. Through His Word, God makes Himself known to those who seek Him. With Scripture as its foundation, Gods Truth Revealed addresses common questions of seekers and new Christianslike Who is God? and Why am I here?

With the understanding that faith in God is not illogical, the study provides biblical, historical and scientific evidence to support creation; the reliability of the Bible; and the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. The author takes study participants on a straightforward journey through the Bible to understand the importance of knowing God, not just knowing about Him. Further, in each chapter the author provides a compelling story of a contemporary person who has become a Christian as an adult.

Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time: The Historical Jesus and the Heart of Contemporary Faith $14.99 “>Of the many recent books on the historical Jesus, none has explored what the latest biblical scholarship means for personal faith. Now, in “Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time, ” Marcus Borg addresses the yearnings of those who want a fully contemporary faith that welcomes rather than oppresses our critical intelligence and openness to the best of historical scholarship. Borg shows how a rigorous examination of historical findings can lead to a new faith in Christ, one that is critical and, at the same time, sustaining. >”Believing in Jesus does not mean believing doctrines about him,” Borg writes. “Rather, it means to give one’s heart, one’s self at its deepest level, to . . . the living Lord.” >Drawing on his own journey from a naive, unquestioning belief in Christ through collegiate skepticism to a mature and contemporary Christian faith, Borg illustrates how an understanding of the historical Jesus can actually lead to a more authentic Christian life–one not rooted in creeds or dogma, but in a life of spiritual challenge, compassion, and community. >In straightforward, accessible prose, Borg looks at the major findings of modern Jesus scholarship from the perspective of faith, bringing alive the many levels of Jesus’ character: spirit person, teacher of alternative wisdom, social prophet, and movement founder. He also reexamines the major stories of the Old Testament vital to an authentic understanding of Jesus, showing how an enriched understanding of these stories can uncover new truths and new pathways to faith. >For questioning believers, doubters, and reluctant unbelievers alike, “Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time” frees our understanding of Jesus’ life and message from popular misconceptions and outlines the way to a sound and contemporary faith: “For ultimately, Jesus is not simply a figure of the past, but a figure of the present. Meeting that Jesus–the living one who comes to us even now–will be like meeting Jesus again for the first time.”" |

Welcome to the Christian Faith $14 “We live in a world increasingly separated from the Christian tradition and the basic understanding of the faith that previous ages might have taken for granted. The voices of faith seem increasingly strident and off-putting to many. There is a need for a calmer, basic introduction to> faith that recognizes the value of doubt and the questions raised in a secular society. > A systematic introduction to Christianity for newcomers needs to begin with a discussion of faith itself, which this new book does. It then moves on to a discussion of such Christian basics as God, Trinity, Church, sin, atonement, prayer, and Christian living.” |

Truth Considered and Applied: Examining Postmodernism, History, and Christian Faith $29.99 “For philosophy and theology students, “Truth Considered and Applied” examines the leading theories of truth in relation to postmodernism, history, and the Christian faith. Author Stewart E. Kelly defends Christianity in the face of postmodernist challenges that would label such religious faith as merely one version of truth among many in a pluralistic world. Likewise, in looking at Christianity as a historical faith, Kelly supports the need for Christians to develop a hermeneutic that does justice to the biblical texts and our informed understanding of the past in general; because if a genuine past cannot be recovered in some meaningful sense, the claims of Jesus being incarnate and risen from the dead are seriously jeopardized.” |

Foundations of the Christian Faith $14.99 “Today, teenagers in church often have no concrete idea why they are Christians or what it really means to be a Christian. Statistics report large numbers of young people reject their faith as they move into college and adulthood. Many Christian books for children present Bible stories illustrating the power of Christian faith. Unfortunately, few talk about faith in a way that makes Christianity personal, yet are written so children and young teens can understand. Foundations of the Faith presents many of the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, beginning with sin and salvation, then continuing with relationships and responsibilities of a born-again believer. Finally, the book presents instruction on Christ and the Church. Geared for children ages 9-13, this book can be an effective tool, assisting young people to gain maturity in their Christian life. Alan R. Noble is a born-again Christian, schooled in the Word since childhood. He was very fortunate to sit under capable preaching and teaching throughout his life. His passion for the spiritual welfare of children grew out of his years of work experience, and his understanding of the Scriptures. He understands that children need to be instructed in the meat of the Word as well as the milk (Hebrews 5: 12-14). Mr. Noble was educated at William Paterson University, a liberal arts institute in northern New Jersey, and received a B.A. in education, with a certificate to teach elementary school. Later, he received an M.A. in Communication Arts, and a certificate in supervision. He worked as a teacher and coordinator before retiring after 31 years in public education. Currently, he and his wife spend winters in San Antonio, Texas, where hehas worked for several years in Christian education.” |

Readings in Historical Theology: Primary Sources of the Christian Faith $34.99 “Readings in Historical Theology provides direct interaction with sixty-six primary sources that have shaped the theological landscape of Christianity.

Lay has selected readings from the Old Testament up to the modern period, including: Ancient creeds, catechisms, and confessions Ancient apologetics, such as the writings of Justin Martyr and Augustine Writings on faith and learning by Origin, Thomas Aquinas, and others Church and church council documents Writings from the monastic tradition, including works by Jerome Reformation theses, catechisms, and confessions Writings of the protestant reformers, including Martin Luther and John Calvin Writings of the Great Awakening, including works by Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and others Writings on Christian nurture and hermeneutics, including John Wesley and Horace Bushnell Along the way the author provides introductions to the readings, and guided questions in most readings, as well. The selections are arranged thematically, and chronologically within each theme. A CD containing more than fifty additional readings is included at the end of the book.” |

A Cosmic Leap of Faith: An Authorial, Structural, and Theological Investigation of the Cosmic Christology in Col. 1:15-20 $125.41 Among the array of christologies embodied within New Testament literature, the so-called hymn of Colossians 1:15-20 offers a unique and invaluable contribution to contemporary theological and inter-religious discourse. This is because it conveys what is arguably the highest christological affirmation within the canon. Pizzuto contends that the hymn is a creative and faith-filled composition by the same deutero-Pauline author of the Colossians epistle itself and demonstrates that there is an inextricable relationship between the chiastic structure of Col 1:15-20 and a proper understanding of its provenance, authorship and theology. Although the hymn echoes theological motifs consistent with Second Temple Judaism and loosely reflects a number of syncretistic influences, it is fundamentally the novelty of the Christ-event, – the historical impact of Jesus of Nazareth – that has been most influential in determining the christological categories of Col 1:15-20 and its larger epistolary framework. Pizzuto thus defends the overall integrity of the hymn against those who would assert that it reflects a pre-Christian or pre-Colossians origin. He concludes that Col 1:15-20 represents something of a leap beyond Pauline christology into a new and unequivocal conviction of the cosmic implications of the Cross. |

A Guide to Isaiah 40-66 $8.95 Isaiah 40-66 is not only a well-known part of Christian scripture, but essential background for understanding the New Testament. It is also important because it grew out of the deepest crisis in Israel’s history. Modern Christians, too, live in a time of crisis, of deep social and political unrest. Like the Israelites in Babylon, we need to reconstruct our traditional faith, to ask who we are, who God is, and what we must do to serve Him.This guide offers detailed interpretation and commentary on the bible narrative which is supported by notes on the historical and literary background, and on the importance of Isaiah 40-66. Study material includes suggestions for research and discussion. |

A Pillar lf Light $25.95 In the spring of 1820 Joseph Smith Jr. emerged from a grove of trees with a message that would change the world and convert millions to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. This mere boy not only claimed that he had seen the God of heaven and the Savior of mankind, but he also said that they had told him the Christian faith was in dire need of renewal. As the foundation upon which Mormonism is built, Joseph Smith’s First Vision is canonized as scripture, taught to children, preached by missionaries, and frequently repeated in sermons by LDS Church leaders. President Gordon B. Hinckley explained the vital role of this historical narrative when he said that “our entire case as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints rests on the validity of this glorious First Vision.” In this rich in-depth study, author Matthew B. Brown helps the reader realize the First Vision more fully-with added detail, clarity, and understanding. He places events in historical context, answers criticisms, and compares and contrasts the various recitals of the First Vision, showing the remarkable harmony that exists between the accounts as well as the minor differences in the retellings. Gain deeper insight about one of the most important events in history in this fascinating well-researched volume by acclaimed LDS historian Matthew B. Brown. The most comprehensive book available that compares the various versions of the First Vision. |

A study of the patristic doctrine of free will. $49.99 This purpose of this work is to examine influential patristic writers from the first four hundred years of church history in an effort to understand what they meant when they spoke of free will. Richard Swinburne claims that the early church fathers held to a libertarian understanding of human freedom. He writes, "My assessment of the Christian theological tradition is that all Christian theologians of the first four centuries believed in human free will in the libertarian sense, as did all subsequent Eastern Orthodox theologians, and most Western Catholic theologians from Duns Scotus (in the fourteenth century) onwards."1 However, not all agree with Swinburne. To focus this discussion, three questions must be answered. The first question addresses the nature of the philosophical and theological context out of which the church fathers wrote. Bruce Demarest's claim that "Many early church Fathers, concerned to avoid pagan fatalism and Gnostic determinism, stressed the freedom of the human will and its ability to repent over the exercise of faith,"2 shows the importance of this question. If this is the case then one should consider if this discounts, or discredits what the early church fathers said about human free will. This is an historical question. The second question seeks to determine if the early church fathers, in claiming free will, meant freedom in a libertarian sense or in a compatiblistic sense. This is a definitional question. The third question to consider is whether the early church fathers believed that the free will that survived the fall was libertarian freedom or not. This is a theological question. If only compatibilist conceptions of freedom were possible as result of the fall, then Swinburne's claim would require modification, and the thesis of this paper would fail for want of the evidence. At issue in this current examination will be the nature of man's freedom, as expressed by these patristic writers. It |

An Educated Man: A Dual Biography of Moses and Jesus $26 From this prize-winning and best-selling author comes a magisterial new project: a dual biography, weaving together the preeminent figures of Judeo-Christian civilization and overturning the conventional view of Moses and Jesus as humble men of faith.Rooting the biographies of Moses and Jesus in their historical contexts, Rosenberg reads their narratives as cultural—rather than religious—endeavors. He charges that both Moses and Jesus were “educated” men, steeped in the literature and scholarship of their day. There were no old or new testaments for them, but rather a long history of writing and writers. When professors quote Moses in university courses, or pastors quote Jesus in sermons, they routinely neglect to inform us that Jesus himself is quoting the Hebrew Bible, often in the manner that Moses once quoted Egyptian medical texts. The remarkable ability of both men to recall and transform a wide range of sources is overlooked. Where did they get these profound educations? Part biography, part critical analysis, An Educated Man further challenges us to envision what defines “an educated man or woman” today—and how an understanding of our religious history is crucial to it. |

An Introduction To The Essential Doctrines Of Christianity $14.95 “My people perish from a lack of knowledge” (Hos. 4:6)Two major issues face the Church today: (1) False and unscriptural philosophies about truth such as political correctness, relativism, and pluralism have taken root not only among non-Christians, but among an increasing number of Christian’s as well, and (2) biblical, doctrinal, theological, and apologetic illiteracy among within the Church has reached epidemic proportions. Many Christian’s are unable to articulate what they believe or why they believe it, nor can they defend the essential doctrines of the Faith.This book was written for Christian’s who desire to gain a better understanding of the fundamental, historical, orthodox doctrines of Christianity. It is a resource designed to equip believers for service in the areas of apologetics and evangelism. If we are going to properly represent the King and His kingdom, then we must be a people of the Word, a people adequately equipped with TRUTH! This book is a must for those who wish to serve the Lord and be effective witnesses in this lost and dying world. |
