Theoogica, Historica & Ethica Studies The Mystery of God Theoogy for Knowing the Unknowabe New Reease Steven D. Boyer and Christopher A. Ha Mystery is one of the most overworked words in the Christian vocabuary, and yet it s essentia whenever we dare to speak about the God who is, as Luther says, both hidden and reveaed. This book is both an invitation to contempation and an exercise in humiity. Boyer and Ha bring together theoogy and spirituaity in a way that wi hep both seasoned traveers and new pigrims on the road of faith. Timothy George, Beeson Divinity Schoo, Samford University; genera editor, Reformation Commentary on Scripture Righty understood, mystery is a powerfu and iberating theoogica reaity. Boyer and Ha skifuy expore the wonderfu truth of mystery, empoying such topics as the incarnation, savation, and prayer as exampes of how it works in the church s confession and practice. In these pages there is rea wisdom. Key M. Kapic, Covenant Coege This book is a gem. Boyer and Ha dispay the beauty of historic Christian orthodoxy in cear, eegant prose. Skifuy avoiding the twin pagues of arrogant rationaism and anti-inteectua irrationaism, they demonstrate the tremendous potentia of the concept of mystery to iuminate centra doctrines and practices of the Christian faith. Schoars, pastors, and students aike wi reap rich rewards from this outstanding contribution to contemporary evangeica theoogy. Jeffrey P. Greenman, Wheaton Coege This is a wecome voume: a ceary written, insightfu approach to a difficut theoogica topic. I especiay appreciated and earned from its taxonomy of mysteries and its idea that as a theoogica category, mystery shoud be understood in reveationa and dimensiona terms. Those terms nicey carify and thematize what s distinctive about a Christian understanding of mystery and do so in a way that wi resonate with many of the book s readers. Kevin Hector, The University of Chicago Divinity Schoo The Mystery of God is a refreshing chaenge to evangeicas to reject rationaistic approaches to faith whie at the same time earning humby from the Great Tradition. Boyer and Ha mine riches from the Fathers that wi hep their readers appreciate the beauty of the Triune God and the orthodox tradition in which he is found. Gerad R.

Smith, series editor Phiosopher Bruce Eis Benson expores how the arts inform and cutivate service to God, heping the church to not ony think differenty about the arts but aso act differenty. He contends that we are a artists, that our very ives shoud be seen as art, and that we shoud ive iturgicay in service to God and neighbor. Working from the bibica structure of ca and response, Benson rethinks what it means to be artistic and recovers the ancient Christian idea of presenting onesef to God as a work of art. Rather than viewing art as practiced ony by the few, Benson argues that we are a caed by God to be artists. He reenvisions art as the very core of our being: we are God s own art, and God cas us to improvise as iving and growing works of art. Benson aso examines the nature of iturgy and connects art and iturgy in a new way. Liturgy as a Way of Life wi appea to phiosophy, worship/iturgy, art, music, and theoogy students as we as those who are interested in engaging issues of worship and aesthetics in a postmodern context.

Theoogica, Historica & Ethica Studies The Economy of Desire Christianity and Capitaism in a Postmodern Word New Reease Danie M. Be Jr. The Church and Postmodern Cuture James K. A. Smith, series editor In this addition to the award-winning Church and Postmodern Cuture series, Danie Be approaches capitaism and Christianity as aternative visions of humanity, God, and the good ife. He engages the work of two important postmodern phiosophers, Gies Deeuze and Miche Foucaut, to iuminate the nature of the postmodern word that the church currenty inhabits. Be considers how the goba economy deforms desire in a manner that distorts human reations with God and one another. In contrast, he presents Christianity and the tradition of the works of mercy as a way beyond capitaism and sociaism, beyond phianthropy and wefare. Endorsements There is no getting around the cry for a just Christian economics in Be s argument, nor the vision for a virtuous capitaism participating in the divine economy of savation. Be s passion is prophetic, and this book screams out to be read in the new era of austerity that a of us are entering now. A revoution is needed, and it has to begin with a right discipining of desire. Graham Ward, University of Manchester Dan Be persuasivey demonstrates that every economy presupposes a theoogy because they share in common the production, distribution, and communication of desire. Using Deeuze and Foucaut, without being used by them, he diagnoses the formation of capitaist desire and compares it to God s eccesia economy. This is the most thoroughy researched and accessibe book on theoogica economics avaiabe today. Its breadth is impressive, its argument compeing. It deserves to be widey read and used at a eves in the university and church. Readers wi be richy rewarded. D.

Theoogica, Historica & Ethica Studies Now in Paper The Bibe Made Impossibe Why Bibicism Is Not a Truy Evangeica Reading of Scripture Christian Smith This important book has generated ivey discussion and debate. The paperback edition incudes a new afterword in which the author engages conversations stimuated by the coth edition. Praise for The Bibe Made Impossibe 2011 Jesus Creed Book of the Year Evangeicaism is cracking apart not because of theoogica drift to the eft but because the ony theoogy that can sustain a genuine evangeicaism is to use the ony word appropriate a cathoic theoogy. Many who were nurtured in American evangeicaism (as Christian Smith was) and now find it seriousy deficient (as Christian Smith does) seem to be those on whom the ight has dawned. Here is a genuiney evangeica cathoic understanding of scripture. Scot McKnight, Northern Seminary Bibicism remains one of the most entrenched and pressing probems facing the church. In his characteristicay ucid, direct, and fair-minded fashion, Christian Smith asks questions about bibicism that need to be answered. Smith aso begins to articuate an aternative, Christcentered approach to bibica interpretation that is supremey constructive a truy evangeica account of scripture. Dougas A.

Rethinking Humanity, Socia Life, and Mora Good from the Person Up and Sous in Transition: The Reigious and Spiritua Lives of Emerging Aduts. His research focuses primariy on reigion in modernity, adoescents, American evangeicaism, and cuture. t Given the importance and infuence of evangeicaism in American reigion and cuture, this book is both a heathy corrective and a hopefu sign of positive deveopments within evangeicaism. Danie J. Harrington, SJ, America Ever the socioogist, Smith forces readers to confront and account for the stubborn fact that not everyone who ascribes supreme authority to what the Bibe says hears God saying the same thing. Even those, ike me, who are not persuaded by his truy evangeica aternative wi benefit from this strong dose of reaism about the way in which evangeicas actuay interpret and appea to the Bibe. Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Trinity Evangeica Divinity Schoo I do not think that bibicism has been quite as destructive as Christian Smith describes it in this book (for exampe, among evangeicas there is very itte pervasive interpretive puraism in understanding John 20:31). Despite this reservation, I think Smith has written an extremey vauabe book. Athough his account of the probems besetting bibicism is devastatingy effective, his appea for a Christ-centered approach to scripture is wise, encouraging, and even more effective. Mark A.

This book shows ceary the power of the Law of Love at work in Dickens s masterfu character portraits, and vindicates the conviction of G. K.

This book is about how we might recaim the negected common good and how faith might hep, instead of hurt, in that important task. In other words, how might our pubic ife be made better even transformed or heaed if our reigious traditions practiced what they preached? Starting in its members ives, its famiies decisions, its own work and vocations, the mission of its churches, synagogues, and mosques, and its coective witness, the faith community s infuence must be put at the service of this radica neighbor-ove ethic that is both faithfu to God and serves as the foundation for the common good.
