Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Today's neurological research has placed habit at the center of human behavior; we are what we do repetitively. When we want to add something to our life, whether it's exercise, prayer, or just getting up earlier in the morning, we know that we must turn an activity into a habit through repetition or it just won't stick.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Dorothy Lee examines evidence from the New Testament and church tradition to show that women were not only valued as disciples but also given leadership roles, which has implications for the contemporary church.'Although the ministries of women, ordained and otherwise, have been acknowledged by great segments of the church, rejection and resistance persist. In this fine volume, Lee presents a comprehensive and engaging case for the ordained ministry of women, drawing on evidence from Scripture, history, and the theological tradition. Her work challenges the idolatry of masculinity that continues to cripple men and women alike within the Christian community. A most welcome contribution.'--Beverly Roberts Gaventa, Baylor University'It is unfortunate that a thoroughly biblical and theological case still needs to be made for the full participation of women in leadership and ministry (whether ordained or lay), but the experience of many demonstrates this necessity. Lee brings together a knowledge of the scriptural and theological sources and a sensitive engagement with the many facets of the debate in this accessible and persuasive volume.'--Judith M. Lieu, University of Cambridge (emerita)'Lee's study of the Christian traditions surrounding the ministry of women makes a major contribution to an important debate. Lee's balanced starting point is that 'there is no single, unanimous voice on women's ministry throughout the history and experience of the church.' Her data from the New Testament, early church teaching, liturgical practices, and iconography articulates significant biblical and theological strands too long ignored or misinterpreted.'--Francis J. Moloney, SDB, Catholic Theological College, University of Divinity, Melbourne, Australia'This book could not be more pertinent in an age where, despite some advances, the struggle for female participation in church leadership and ministry is far from over. Lee's expertise as a biblical scholar shines as she walks us through passages and profiles of women, who in both the New Testament and church tradition encountered the Lord and engaged in his mission at different levels.'--Adesola Joan Akala, St. John's College, Durham University'Without apology, Lee clearly and comprehensively presents the case for the ministry of women. She invites readers to consider the arguments and investigate the rich array of sources. I look forward to recommending this to students as they enter the weighty and challenging, yet rewarding, process of discerning God's call.'--Amy Peeler, Wheaton College; associate rector, St. Mark's Episcopal Church.

The continued growth of poverty and homelessness in the richest country in the world is a moral failing and a social sin. The story Lindsey Krinks tells in her book is one of an important and needed ministry of work with the poor and homeless.'--Willie Baptist, activist, educator, author, and formerly homeless father'I took up this book expecting a study of the integration of action and contemplation.

This is a powerful book of stories that will keep you reading. Read. Be challenged. Act.'--Emilie M. Townes, dean and distinguished professor of womanist ethics and society, Vanderbilt University Divinity School'Thoughtfully crafted and powerfully told, Praying with Our Feet is a story of a movement growing from those who are homeless but not helpless coming together to demand dignity, life, and change. I thank Krinks for treating the lives and wounds of so many of God's people as serious and sacred, and for recognizing these people as moral and political agents of change.'--Liz Theoharis, cochair, Poor People's Campaign; codirector, Kairos: The Center for Religions, Rights, and Social Justice, Union Theological Seminary.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Pastor and author James Emery White leads his church and his life with a singular mission: to turn spiritual explorers into fully devoted followers of Christ. The obvious first step in this process is for someone to cross the line of faith--to say, 'I believe.' That was the heart behind his book Christianity for People Who Aren't Christians.

Often the great books on discipleship are deep but inaccessible. Others are easy to read but lack depth. Jim takes a wealth of knowledge and insight on the essentials of Christian discipleship and makes them wonderfully easy to understand but deep enough to authentically help you.'--Carey Nieuwhof, leadership author, podcaster, and founding pastor of Connexus Church in Barrie, Ontario'Living a life with Christ is not a onetime commitment. White reminds us it is a lifetime of intentional choices and disciplined practices that help us in our desire to be followers of Jesus.'--Suzanne Stabile, author of The Path between Us, coauthor of The Road Back to You, and host of The Enneagram Journey podcast'I have long loved the writings of James Emery White for his unique insights into the Christian faith and his knack for unraveling complex issues. Now he offers us an updated, refreshing guide for following Jesus in a confusing and sometimes hostile world. After 'I Believe' is a practical resource for spiritual growth. Compellingly straightforward, this book will help you align yourself to biblical truth to effect real life-change. Jim's chapter on prayer alone makes this book worth buying.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Compelling and wonderfully written''Thiessen's masterful study puts to rest the pervasive and false view that Jesus--as portrayed in the canonical Gospels--opposed the ancient Jewish purity laws. Thiessen argues convincingly that the Gospels depict Jesus not as dismantling the Jewish purity system but as destroying the forces of death that result in ritual impurity. The book is compelling and wonderfully written--a must-read for anyone interested in Jesus, the Gospels, and the ins and outs of ancient Jewish law and practice. It also makes a powerful case for the ongoing relevance of the Hebrew Bible for a historical understanding of Christianity and for Christians today.'--Adele Reinhartz, University of Ottawa'Matthew Thiessen's Jesus and the Forces of Death is a much-needed historical and theological intervention. For far too long, constricted ideas and damaging misinterpretations of first-century Judaism and Jesus's ministry have severely limited interpretation of the Gospels. From scholars to students, preachers to everyday Christians, readers will encounter a Jesus here who is far more faithful to his context and thus far more life-giving in his teaching and healing alike.'--Eric D. Barreto, Princeton Theological Seminary'Matthew Thiessen has written a thought-provoking and in-depth study on the Gospels' depiction of Jesus's work in relation to purity laws. Importantly, he demonstrates that the authors portray Jesus as acting wholly in accordance with Jewish laws. Thiessen's innovative interpretation of the Gospel stories is a welcome addition to the scholarship on purity in the New Testament. This study is sure to generate much discussion and debate.'--Cecilia Wassén, Uppsala University'For centuries interpreters of the Gospels have mistakenly thought that Jesus battled the Jewish ritual purity system, when, in fact, he battled ritual impurity itself. For Jesus and the Evangelists, as for most ancient people, ritual impurity was a real substance, a miasma. And according to the Gospel accounts, Jesus came to destroy it--so argues Matthew Thiessen in this brilliant book. If you read this book, you will learn a thousand new things.'--Matthew V. Novenson, University of Edinburgh.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'By displaying how an imaginative human spirit can be illuminated by the manifold sense of Scripture, and by activating tradition to dissolve lingering philosophical distractions, this stunning summa for a 'postliberal Catholicism' will at once subvert any tendency among the faithful to demand a facile 'fix, ' as well as offer lucid direction for anyone daring to undertake a pilgrimage of understanding--in and with the Christ.'--David B. Burrell, University of Notre Dame / Tantur Ecumenical Institute (Jerusalem)'Drawing deftly on Aquinas, Newman, Lonergan, Balthasar, and many others, Barron convincingly explains what a postliberal Catholic theology might be. But the great merit of this book is that he not only talks about what theology should be, he actually does it--above all in his lucid mystagogy on a series of Gospel stories and in striking meditations on the mind of Christ embodied in four great women saints of our time.'--Bruce Marshall, Southern Methodist University'It is crucial for Christians to apprehend the implications of Robert Barron's trenchant thesis: 'Modernity and decadent Christianity are enemies in one sense, but in another sense, they are deeply connected to one another and mirror one another.' Moving beyond the 'decadent Christianity' that mistakenly sought its very starting points in the epistemological and metaphysical dead ends characteristic of 'modernity, ' Barron expertly weaves together a robust short summa. Readers seeking spiritual and intellectual renewal will be revitalized by this much-needed book, which overflows with love of God and his path of salvation.'--Matthew Levering, Mundelein Seminary'Catholic theology stands at a foundational moment, and in this extended meditation on the figure of Christ, Robert Barron boldly argues for a Catholicism that rethinks the controversy between modern and postmodern thought through classic theological formulations. Broad in reference and informed by the homilist's touch, The Priority of Christ will be an important contribution to a conversation the Church must have.'--Richard A. Rosengarten, University of Chicago.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this volume from the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary, Paul Tanner argues that the book of Daniel is the Old Testament blueprint of the Bible's overarching eschatological narrative. Tanner examines key aspects of the book of Daniel such as the revelation of Israel's future in relation to gentile kingdoms, God's exaltation of Daniel as a channel through whom he reveals his will and God's sovereign control of the nations under whom Israel is being disciplined. Tanner provides exegetical insight to help readers better understand not only how God worked in Israel's history through Daniel, but how he sovereignly directs all of world history--for all time.
