| Description: |
How does the ancient biblical text speak to us today? Michael Graves, an expert in ancient exegesis, describes how Old Testament texts interpret earlier Old Testament traditions, explores New Testament reception, and explains how insights from this process translate into present-day biblical interpretation.
Graves clearly explains and illustrates this approach with discussions of five themes: personal responsibility; sacrificial offerings; insiders and outsiders; marriage, polygamy, and divorce; and the afterlife.
The book demonstrates that learning from the biblical writers makes us better interpreters and teachers who are more adept at discerning the meaning of the text for our modern world. |

| Description: |
"Love is our only hope," Anne Lamott writes in this perceptive new book. "It is not always the easiest choice, but it is always the right one, the noble path, the way home to safety, no matter how bleak the future looks."
Lamott explores the transformative power that love has in our lives: how it surprises us, forces us to confront uncomfortable truths, reminds us of our humanity, and guides us forward.
Drawing from her own life and experiences, she delineates the intimate and elemental ways that love buttresses us in the face of despair as it galvanises us to believe that tomorrow will be better than today. |

| Description: |
Traditional forms of devotion to the Sacred Heart, have waned among Catholics in recent decades. That's understandable, writes theologian and Sacred Heart Religious, Mary Frohlich. In this book, she seeks to reinterpret a traditional devotion, making it more relevant and central to Christian spirituality in the 21st century.
Facing our impending ecological disaster, Frohlich sets out to discover the Heart of God as truly the heart of all creation.
Drawing upon recent theologies that have embraced the "new animism" that regards every being (including humans) as a node in webs of living relationality, Frohlich chooses twelve themes relevant to the concerns and needs of today's world and explores what story of the Heart of God may be told in relation to each one. |

| Description: |
Biblical utterance, offers imaginative probes into the mystery of God's creation and into human hurt and human hope. Thus the dialect of the Bible offers relational terms, so that lived reality characteristically concerns justice and righteousness, steadfast love, faithfulness, and compassion.
Insofar as the church relies upon and attests to this dialect, the church is sometimes seduced away from this relational dialect to speak in ways that are alien to the Bible and to the claims of the gospel.
Such seduction takes place, for example, when our nation is at war and the church is tempted to reflect and reiterate the force of that social reality. Or such seduction occurs with ideological conservatism that craves the language of certitude, or ideological liberalism that is easily bewitched by the rhetoric of psychology or the market. The church then loses its distinctiveness, its nerve and its courage for serious mission. |
