The Later Christian Fathers: A Selection from the Writings

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bettenson, Henry, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The century and a quarter following the Council of Nicaea (A.D. 325) has been called the 'Golden Age of Patristic literature.' It is this period that Henry Bettenson covers in this companion volume to The Early Christian Fathers, selecting from the writings of Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa, Jerome, Augustine of Hippo, Cyril of Alexandria, and other Fathers of the Christian Church. Their central concerns were formulating the doctrine of the Trinity after the Nicene conclusions, and enunciating the doctrine of the divinity and humanity of Christ. The writings served to clarify if not to solve the issues and they continue to be valuable and relevant for all who wish to understand the Christian doctrine. As in The Early Christian Fathers, Mr. Bettenson has translated everything afresh and provided some brief sketches of the lives of each of the Fathers represented in the selection.

The Genesis of Ethics: On the Authority of God as the Origin

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Reed, Esther D., PUBLISHER: Pilgrim Press, The Genesis of Ethics soundly addresses the controversial concept of God's authority and reframes the concept as separate from authoritarianism. Esther D. Reed views ethics as the practical expression of divine-human reciprocity -- not as an isolated part of Christian life. "God's authority is not of a controlling or hegemonic kind, but of the dialogic, answerable kind, which draws human persons into relationship, " writes Reed. Reed proclaims that God's Word calls us to life, and the way we answer with our lives is the embodiment of Christian ethics and moral theology. The book presents and expounds upon a critical question -- How is the church to exercise authority in ways that promote the growth of personal freedom in Christ while preventing its teaching authority from becoming authoritarian?

A Story to Live by

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Galloway, Kathy, PUBLISHER: United Church Press, When she was young, Kathy Galloway found that a poem by Walt Whitman gave her a sense of truth. As she grew and reflected on the poem, she discovered three "convictions": that the beingness of the world is good, that its intrinsic worth is in its relatedness, and that nothing is more miraculous than the ordinary. These three convictions are part of the story she lives by. In this book, Galloway uses her experiences to help us contemplate three basic questions: What is my story? What has helped shape my story? and How does my story relate to the stories of others? Drawing on her knowledge of Celtic spirituality and her deep sense of social justice, she addresses such themes as the search for roots, the role of work, and the need for values.

Thomas Lawrence

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ashton, Geoffrey, PUBLISHER: Chaucer Press, Sir Thomas Lawrence painted some of the best known and loved images of the Regency period, Cherry Ripe, Pinkie and Master William Lambton (The Red Boy) which became some of the most famous images of Victorian and early twentieth century times. However, Lawrence's real genius was to bring to life a huge cross-section of late Georgian and Regency society. These range from the elderly and kindly Queen Charlotte, wife of George III, to the swashbuckling grandees of parliament and church. Lawrence had an uncanny ability to bring society to life, even when he was painting the Archbishop of Canterbury. Today, he is also regarded as the leading portrait painter of the whole of Europe of his time, and is best seen in the Waterloo Chamber at Windsor Castle, where the Pope presides over the allied monarchs of Europe who defeated Napoleon. This beautifully illustrated book contains some of his finest work.

Sacred Violence: African Christians and Sectarian Hatred in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Shaw, Brent D., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, One route to understanding the nature of specifically religious violence is the study of past conflicts. Distinguished ancient historian Brent D. Shaw provides a new analysis of the intense sectarian battles between the Catholic and Donatist churches of North Africa in late antiquity, in which Augustine played a central role as Bishop of Hippo. The development and deployment of images of hatred, including that of the heretic, the pagan, and the Jew, and the modes by which these were most effectively employed, including the oral world of the sermon, were critical to promoting acts of violence. Shaw explores how the emerging ecclesiastical structures of the Christian church, on one side, and those of the Roman imperial state, on the other, interacted to repress or excite violent action. Finally, the meaning and construction of the acts themselves, including the Western idea of suicide, are shown to emerge from the conflict itself. Acquista Ora

The First English Bible: The Text and Context of the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dove, Mary / Dove, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The Bible was translated into English for the first time in the late s by John Wyclif and his supporters. In the first study of the Wycliffite Bible for nearly a century, Mary Dove explains why people wanted an English translation, why many clergy opposed the idea, and why the Church's attempt to censor the translation was unsuccessful. Based on intensive study of the surviving manuscripts, Dove takes the reader through every step of the conception, design and execution of the first English Bible. Illuminating examples are included at every point, and textual analyses and a complete listing of surviving manuscripts are appended. Despite the meagre and inadequate resources with which the Wycliffites carried through their enormous enterprise, and the disagreements and changes of direction it involved, Dove demonstrates that the first English Bible initiated a tradition of scholarly, stylish and thoughtful biblical translation, and remains a major cultural landmark.

Imitating God in Christ: Recapturing a Biblical Pattern

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hood, Jason B., PUBLISHER: IVP Academic, Should we imitate Jesus? Some Christians answer with a cheerful "Yes," seeing it as the sum of the Christian life. Others believe we should rely on the work of Christ alone, throwing off any hint of the moralism or "works righteousness" they associate with imitating Jesus. Jason Hood takes us on a tour of what the Bible has to say about imitating Jesus. He draws our attention to what Paul told the Corinthians he taught "everywhere in every church." And after following the theme throughout the New Testament, he looks at it from a historical and contemporary perspective. The result is the recovery of a biblical pattern, and a challenge and corrective to embracing moralism on one side and fearing moralism on the other. Here is a reliable theological foundation for imitating Jesus today, one that reshapes our thinking and challenges us in our discipleship.
