Fourteen contributors come together here to examine how Christians and their churches can or should find meaning in the concepts of Sunday and Sabbath in relation to the pressures of contemporary global culture. The editors weave together personal experience, suggested practices, and historical and ethical material to form a unique volume for today's church.

Disasters indicate the complex peril of earthly existence. Suffering and risk are global realities. Yet, the biblical depiction of persons and communities as "earthen vessels" also suggests that vulnerable creatures can be strengthened to receive and bear the grace and glory of God. Culp demonstrates how vulnerability to devastation and to transformation is the very basis for life before God. The glory of God may be witnessed in resistance to inhumanity and idolatry and expressed in delight and gratitude for the good gifts of life.

With scriptural teaching and broad-ranging application, this follow-up to Redeeming Science builds a Christian theology of language and reforms our thinking about words.
Language is not only the centerpiece of our everyday lives, but it gives significance to all that we do. It also reflects and reveals our all-sustaining Creator, whose providential governance extends to the intricacies of language. Writes Vern Poythress, "God controls and specifies the meaning of each word-not only in English but in Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Italian, and every other language. When, in our modernism or postmodernism, we drop him from our account of language, our words suddenly become a prison that keeps us from the truth rather than opening doors to the truth. But we will use our words more wisely if we come to know God and understand him in relation to our language."

It is such biblically informed insights that make In the Beginning Was the Word especially valuable. Words are important to us all, and this book-written at a level that presupposes no knowledge of linguistics-develops a positive, God-centered view of language. In his interaction with multiple disciplines Poythress offers plenty of application, not just for scholars and church leaders but for any Christian thinking carefully about his speech.

This book offers insight into the emergence of the Christian church after Mao's Cultural Revolution. While reports of Communist oppression have dominated American perceptions of church and state in China, this is an increasingly dangerous view as China changes. Dr. Marvin D. Hoff, as executive director for the Foundation for Theological Education in Southeast Asia, traveled at least annually to China for the period covered by this book. The original reports of his encounters with Chinese Christians, especially those involved with theological education, are a historic record of the churches growth-and growing freedom. Interspersed with Hoff's accounts are reports and essays by Chinese and other Asian Christians. Introductory essays are provided by Charles W. Forman of Yale Divinity School, Daniel B. Hays of Calvin College, and Donald J. Bruggink of Western Theological Seminary.

This unique volume invites readers into conversations on religion, theology, and social movements. The authors offer a variety of essays that not only contribute to creative thinking past long-standing impasses but also inspire new conversations. Some document historically inspired debates that helped shape the theological reflection of the time in which they occurred. Some imagine a dialogue that never happened but that the contributor wished had taken place. Still others take a thematic approach and create a dialogue between religions or theology and a pressing social or political issue. / Theology as Conversation is a creative and constructive work, a fitting tribute to Princeton Theological Seminary professor Daniel L. Migliore.

當人們聽到或者讀到「舊約倫理學」一詞，腦中很容易浮現一串問號，因為經文中不道德的部分讓人無法理解。於是，有些基督徒主張，舊約的道德律，要和禮儀律、民事律區分開來；前者如今還必須遵守，後者可以不用理會。也有人寧願只是恪遵新約倫理就好。但作者認為，舊約在聖經中的地位同樣重要，上述兩種看法對舊約並不公平。
但本書並非（如我們所認為的）要討論「舊約的倫理問題」。作者（萊特）先提出舊約倫理的神學、社會、經濟架構，接著再就一系列當代議題作深入的探討：經濟、土地與貧窮；生態與地球；政治與列國；法律與正義；社會、文化與家庭；個人自處之道。
對身處今日世界，立志作神子民，活出上帝心意的基督徒來說，舊約聖經是一群子民的故事。上帝呼召整個社會成為「屬祂的子民」，好使他們在世上的萬國中，成為「永生上帝的活見證人」。
本書前身是《認識舊約倫理學》（Living as the People of God, 台北：校園），該書自一九八三年問世以來，廣受好評。如今經過大幅修改，重新編排，納入作者另一本書Walking in the Ways of the Lord的素材，再加上學術界舊約倫理研究的最新綜覽，最後集結而成。全書清新易懂，適合一般基督徒閱讀，而且參考書目詳盡，學生也能從中獲益。

為什麼海斯這本探討新約倫理學的作品，能夠在問世至今的十餘年當中，引發未曾間斷的回響與討論，更被《今日基督教雜誌》選為「二十世紀百大好書」？
原來，透過這本思考縝密、情感豐富的鉅作，我們踏上了基督徒生命中最重要的一趟倫理旅程：
從第一世紀的新約處境，跨越到二十一世紀的當代生活。
第一站：深入的描述
重回新約時代的現場，看看馬太、馬可、路加、約翰、保羅和眾使徒如何輪番上場，各自以他們獨特的視野與筆觸，描繪出新約多元而豐富的倫理意境。
第二站：綜合的意象
繽紛多彩的新約敘事，共同訴說著群體、十架與新造的救贖故事；透過這三個焦點意象，我們真正看出了每一段經文的倫理含義。
第三站：詮釋的方法
與我們同行、對話的旅伴，乃是尼布爾、巴特、尤達、侯活士和費蘭札這五位功力深厚的神學大師；透過認真而激烈的討論，激盪出詮釋經文的合宜方式，用隱喻、類比和想像力，為不同的時空搭起橋樑。
第四站：實踐的行動
旅程的終點，就是我們所生活的時代。透過暴力、離婚、同性戀、種族歧視、墮胎這五個困難倫理議題的檢視，我們可以發現這趟穿越的旅程的確指出了今日我們應當如何生活。
這趟旅程的目的，不只是幫助我們如何透過聖經來討論是非對錯，更是要藉著全然浸潤在新約的倫理意境裡面，重新形塑我們觀看世界、觀看自我的角度。透過本書，我們將得著一種新的眼光，看見新約聖經乃是要呼召屬神子民這個立約的群體，參與在基督的十架當中，讓耶穌的受死與復活變成我們日常生活的模式，好預先表現出神的新創造，在這個混亂而充滿暴力的世界中，將真實的和平與盼望表露出來。

The father of the intelligent design movement, Phillip Johnson, thinks the new atheists are right! How? They've put serious discussion about God back on the public agenda. Despite their conclusions, folks like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Daniel Dennett are asking the right questions. They're making belief in any religion an issue again, especially in the university context where, for decades, questions about faith and reason have been taken off the table for serious discussion. Open debate is exactly what we need on the topics of God, evolution and creation. Together Johnson and John Mark Reynolds help us see the unique opportunity these vociferous and even evangelistic atheists are creating in their attempt to convert us to their unbelief. The authors show that we need not fear or react against these challenges. Rather they point to better ways to engage the opinions of this new, aggressive form of antireligious activity. With skill and insight they energetically take on the question of whether the evidence leads to a materialistic naturalism or points toward a creator God. Be informed. Be encouraged.
