Scripture: A Guide for the Perplexed

Given the extraordinary richness and range of contemporary theology, questions about the authority and inspiration of the Bible tend to garner ever-increasing variety, complexity, and controversy. Among those challenges include the questions posed by biblical criticism to the enterprise of Christian theology and the place of Scripture in the life of the contemporary church. Employing a range of conversation partners, this book will provide an up-to-date survey of the diverse ways in which contemporary theologians use the Bible “to think with.” The volume enables students to compare different approaches to the reading of Scripture. It also explores the ways in which the theological interpretation of Scripture can be both a critical and a spiritual exercise.

The Synoptic Problem: A Way through the Maze

Perhaps the greatest literary enigma in history, the Synoptic Problem has fascinated generations of scholars who have puzzled over the agreements, the disagreements, the variations, and the peculiarities of the relationship between the first three of our canonical Gospels. Yet the Synoptic Problem remains inaccessible to students, who often become quickly entangled in its apparent complexities. Now Mark Goodacre offers a way through the maze, explaining in a lively and refreshing style exactly what study of the Synoptic Problem involves, why it is important and how it might be solved in this readable, balanced, and up-to-date guide.

The Doctrines of Grace: Rediscovering the Evangelical Gospel

There is no question that we live in an age of weak theology and casual Christianity. We have substituted intuition for truth, feeling for belief and immediate gratification for enduring hope. Evangelicalism desperately needs to return to the doctrines that once before reformed the world: radical depravity, unconditional election, particular redemption, efficacious grace and persevering grace.
