Making Sense Of Paul
Wiles introduces Paul's theology by helping readers bridge the gaps of time and place between twentieth-century Western readers and the first-century Mediterranean apostle. Wiles engages the reader in a meaningful way, relying upon solid interpretation coupled with modern analogies. Taking her cue from the notion that what may be familiar may not necessarily be understood, Wiles shows how assuming knowledge of Paul's thought world and language leads to confusion and misunderstanding. Thus "familiar" terms such as 'righteousness,' 'sin,' 'law' and 'grace' take on a new dimension under Wiles's guiding hand.
Making Sense Of The Trinity
Despite the common use of the phrase Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, many Christians and plenty of nonbelievers lack an understanding of the doctrine of the Trinity. This often is a barrier to faith or growth, but one that can be overcome when explored openly and thoroughly. The Trinity has much to teach us about the essence of God and our relationships with one another. In Making Sense of the Trinity, Millard J. Erickson demonstrates the biblical foundation, logic, and importance of the Trinity as he answers these three questions: - Is the doctrine of the Trinity biblical? - Does the doctrine of the Trinity make sense? - Does the doctrine of the Trinity make any difference? The book is the latest in Baker's 3 Crucial Questions series, which seeks to examine the most challenging aspects of Christian theology. Erickson's down-to-earth language communicates to laity, seminary students, pastors, and scholars alike. All four groups will appreciate the reliable guidance of this respected scholar.

And it is not only innocent children and others like them who suffer but also you and I. This book is for anyone who has ever wept and wondered, "Why?"Peter Kreeft observes that our world is full of billions of normal lives which have been touched by apparently pointless and random suffering. He then records the results of his own wrestling match with God as he struggles to make sense out of this pain and suffering.This account of a real and honest personal quest is both engaging and convincing. It delights as well as informs, much in the style of C. S. Lewis.
