  • Inspired Imperfection: How the Bible's Problems Enhance Its Divine Authority

    Inspired Imperfection: How the Bible's Problems Enhance Its Divine Authority

    In Inspired Imperfection, Gregory A. Boyd adds another counterintuitive and provocative thesis to his corpus. While conservative scholars and pastors have struggled for years to show that the Bible is without errors, Boyd considers this a fool's errand. Instead, he says, we should embrace the mistakes and contradictions in Scripture, for they show that God chose to use fallible humans to communicate timeless truths.

  • Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technology, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What to Do About It

    Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technology, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What to Do About It

    We have a universal yearning, writes David Zahl, not to be happy or respected so much as enough--what religions call "righteous." Today, we look to all sorts of everyday activities--from eating and parenting to dating and voting--for the meaning once provided on Sunday morning. Seculosity takes a thoughtful yet entertaining tour of American "performancism." Ultimately, Zahl brings us to a fresh appreciation for the grace of God in all its countercultural wonder.

  • The Homebrewed Christianity Guide to the Old Testament: Israel's In-Your-Face, Holy God

    The Homebrewed Christianity Guide to the Old Testament: Israel's In-Your-Face, Holy God

    The Old Testament bears witness to an in-your-face, holy God--a God who gets down and dirty with creation and history; a God who gets in people's face with love and law, with power and purpose. Yet Israel's in-your-face God is also "holy"--too other, too raw, too intense to be handled without oven mitts. Rolf Jacobson wrestles with this in-your-face God--the God who smiles on Abraham and Sarah, hides his face from Moses, and uses prophets to shout in Israel's face.

  • A Complicated Pregnancy: Whether Mary Was a Virgin and Why It Matters

    A Complicated Pregnancy: Whether Mary Was a Virgin and Why It Matters

    The virgin birth is a much-loved story in the Christian tradition, but many theologians dispute the tradition of the virginal conception on both historical and scientific grounds. A Protestant theologian, husband, and father, Kyle Roberts was growing unsure of his belief in Mary's virginity. So he set out to investigate the virgin birth from every angle. A Complicated Pregnancy records his fascinating journey through the evidence and the myth, through history, biblical interpretation, and church politics. His conclusion surprised him, and it will surprise you, too.

  • Bitten by a Camel: Leaving Church, Finding God

    Bitten by a Camel: Leaving Church, Finding God

    Kent Dobson climbed Mount Sinai in search of the God who had eluded him. Instead he got bitten by a camel. The senior pastor of one of the most prominent churches in America, Dobson was growing disillusioned with his faith. One Sunday, he preached, "I don?t know what the word God means anymore." He left the church, but his quest for God became more intense than ever. On the foundation of Jesus and the Bible, Dobson reconstructs a faith that is life-giving and true?true to himself and true to God.

  • Original Blessing: Putting Sin in Its Rightful Place

    Original Blessing: Putting Sin in Its Rightful Place

    Belief in the doctrine of Original Sin is firmly held by many Christians, but it turns out that it's not necessarily biblical. Further, argues Danielle Shroyer, it's bad for people and bad for the church. In Original Blessing, Shroyer shows not only how we got it wrong, but how we can put sin back in its rightful place: in a broader context of redemption and the blessing of humanity's creation in the image of God.

  • The Death of Race: Building a New Christianity in a Racial World

    The Death of Race: Building a New Christianity in a Racial World

    Brian Bantum says that race is not merely an intellectual category or a biological fact. It is a deeply theological problem, one that is central to the Christian story and that plays out daily in the United States and throughout the world. Our attempts to heal racism will not succeed unless we address a fallen understanding of our bodies. He examines the question of race, but through the lens of our bodies and what our bodies mean in the midst of a racialized world that perpetually dehumanizes dark bodies.
