Old Testament Studies John H. Walton Genesis 2–3 and the Human Origins Debate ”Scholarly and readable, the text seen through Near Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into Do We Have to Choose? For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly through the corridors of art, literature and theology. But for many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously the authority of Scripture, insisting on a “literal” understanding of Genesis 2–3 looks painfully like a “tear here” strip between faith and science. How can Christians of good faith move forward? Who were the historical Adam and Eve? In what cultural code was this couple, this garden, this serpent portrayed? With twenty-one propositions, John Walton now backlights this most elemental story with the ancient world of the biblical author, giving us the context and clarity to reset the discussion and move forward. Additionally, an illuminating excursus by N. T. Wright places Adam in the implied narrative of Paul’s theology. John H. Walton (PhD, Hebrew Union College) is professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and Graduate School. His books include The Lost World of Scripture, The Lost World of Genesis One, Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament, The NIV Application Commentary: Genesis and The IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament.

Burge “Fully true to the historical-cultural setting of the early first-century Roman empire, this story not only makes the New Testament world come alive but it creates one very plausible scenario of the career and B urGe A Week in the Life of a Roman Centurion A W e e k in the L i f e of a Roman Centurion family of the Capernaum centurion of Matthew 8:5-13 and Luke 7:1-10.” Craig L. Blomberg, Denver Seminary Enter a world of warfare and treachery, of duty and honor, of love and loyalty, interwoven with the inner workings of a Roman centurion’s household. And then trace it as the road curves toward little Capernaum. Follow the story of Appius, a proud centurion, and Tullus, his scribe and slave. From a battle with the Parthians, through a tragic personal crisis, to the gladiator arena at Caesarea Maritima, their tale finally leads to the backwater village of Capernaum on the shores of Galilee. There, in a culture not their own and during a week they will never forget, they encounter a Jewish prophet from Nazareth. In entertaining historical fiction, this fast-paced account gives us an empire-eye view of the world of the Gospels. Splashed with informative sidebars and images, we capture a view of Jesus’ world from the outer framework looking in. Gary M. Burge (PhD, University of Aberdeen) is professor of New Testament at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. Among his many published books are Theology Questions Everyone Asks (with coeditor David Lauber), The Baker Illustrated Bible Commentary (general editor with Andrew Hill), The New Testament in Antiquity (coauthored with Lynn Cohick and Gene Green), John: The Gospel of Life and the awardwinning Whose Land?

Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself Do we need the Old Testament? That’s a familiar question, often asked. But as an Old Testament scholar, John Goldingay turns that question on its head: Do we need the New Testament? What’s new about the New Testament? After all, the Old Testament was the only Bible Jesus and the disciples knew. Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God. Do we need anything more? And what happens when we begin to look at the Old Testament, the First Testament, not as a deficient old work in need of a christological makeover, but as a rich and splendid revelation of God’s faithfulness to Israel and the world? In this cheerfully provocative yet probingly serious book, Goldingay sets the question and views it from a variety of angles. Under his expert hand, each facet unfolds the surprising richness of the Old Testament and challenges us to recalibrate our perspective on it. John Goldingay (PhD, University of Nottingham; DD, Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth) is David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological Seminary. His books include The Theology of the Book of Isaiah, Key Questions about Interpretation, Models for Scripture and commentaries on Psalms, Isaiah and Daniel. He has also authored the three-volume Old Testament Theology and the seventeen-volume Old Testament For Everyone series. Goldingay also serves in pastoral ministry as an associate pastor at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, Pasadena. He holds membership in the Society of Biblical Literature and the Society for Old Testament Study, and serves on the Task Force on Biblical Interpretation in the Anglican Communion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies.

Morley Mapping Apologetics Comparing Contemporary Approaches Brian K. Morley ”The most complete and best analysis to date of my overall apologetic approach.” John Warwick Montgomery, Concordia University Everyone believes something. But how and why do people believe? What counts as evidence? How much can be assumed or believed by faith alone? In this comprehensive survey, Brian Morley provides an overview of Christian apologetic approaches and how they differ. He explores the historical and philosophical underpinnings of key figures and major schools of thought, from the presuppositionalism of Cornelius Van Til to the evidentialism of Gary Habermas. Moving beyond theory, Morley also demonstrates how each apologetic view works out in practical terms, covering the complexities of apologetics in a way that is accessible to the nonspecialist. Evenhanded and respectful of each contribution, this book provides the reader with a formidable array of defenses for the faith. Brian K. Morley (PhD, Claremont University) is professor of philosophy and apologetics at the Master’s College in Santa Clarita, California. He is the author of God in the Shadows: Evil in God’s World and has been a member of the Evangelical Theological Society, the Evangelical Philosophical Society and the Society of Christian Philosophers.

The need to reengage the deepdown things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom been more urgent. Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and Anglican traditions. The tradition of theological ethics, influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas, offers a distinct emphasis on the virtues and character formation. Now Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character, while also laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason and ethical living. Christians—whether of Anglican, Catholic or other traditions—interested in vigorously retrieving a great moral heritage will find here common ground for ethical reflection and discipleship. Daniel A. Westberg (DPhil, Oxford University) is professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House, a seminary of the Episcopal Church in Nashotah, Wisconsin. He grew up in Japan where his parents were missionaries, and after his ordination he served as an Anglican priest in the Diocese of Toronto for ten years in both rural and city parishes. He also taught ethics at the University of Virginia for eight years. Westberg is the author of Right Practical Reason: Action, Aristotle and Prudence in Aquinas and many articles in journals such as The Anglican Theological Review, The Thomist and New Blackfriars, as well as several short articles in The New Dictionary of Christian Ethics and Pastoral Theology.

David Buschart, Kent D. Eilers Theology as Retrieval Receiving the Past, Renewing the Church ”Thinking in the present is often animated, enriched and healed by thinking through the past; this book tells its readers why and how this is so.” Theology as Retrieval Receiving the Past, Renewing the Church John Webster, professor of divinity, University of St Andrews ”Tradition is the living faith of the dead.” —Jaroslav Pelikan The movement to retrieve the Christian past is a mode of theological discernment, a cultivated habit of thought. It views the doctrines, practices and resonant realities of the Christian tradition as deep wells for a thirsty age. This movement across the church looks back in order to move forward. David Buschart and Kent Eilers survey this varied movement and identify six areas where the impulse and practice of retrieval has been notably fruitful and suggestive: the interpretation of Scripture, the articulation of theology, the practices of worship, the disciplines of spirituality, the modes of mission and the participatory ontology of Radical Orthodoxy. In each area they offer a wide-angle view before taking a close look at representative examples in order to give finer texture to the discussion. More than a survey and mapping of the terrain, Theology As Retrieval inspires reflection, practice and hope. W.

But what if our view of sharing a testimony of faith is all wrong? According to Amanda Drury, testimony is not merely about describing something that happened in the past. It is a practice that forms our present and future identity. Testimony changes us, and without it we risk having a stunted and stale faith. Drawing on work in sociology, psychology and theology, Drury develops an understanding of testimony as an essential practice for Christian spiritual formation, especially for adolescents who are in the process of developing their identity. Recent studies reveal a staggering inability for adolescents to articulate their religious beliefs. Now more than ever, churches need to recover the practice of testimony as an integral part of communal worship.

She is assistant professor of practical theology at Indiana Wesleyan University and is ordained in the Wesleyan Church.

Even though people make moral decisions every day, many Christians lack both the ability to evaluate these decisions and a community of discipleship to help inspire a morally faithful life. Compared to the people around them, there is often no discernible difference in how Christians go about making moral choices. As a biblical and practical theologian with three decades of pastoral experience who has also spent years teaching ethics to undergraduates, Gary Tyra approaches the topic with the practical goal of facilitating moral formation and encouraging an “everyday” moral faithfulness. Tyra argues that Christians can have confidence in their Christ-centered, Spirit-enabled ability to discern and do the will of God in any moral situation. Moral faithfulness follows from a life of Christian discipleship. In an age of moral apathy and theological confusion, Pursuing Moral Faithfulness is a breath of fresh air and a sign of hope for the future. Gary Tyra (DMin, Fuller Theological Seminary) is professor of biblical and practical theology at Vanguard University. Tyra is the author of The Holy Spirit in Mission, Christ’s Empowering Presence, A Missional Orthodoxy, Beyond the Bliss and Defeating Pharisaism. Tyra has over twenty-five years of pastoral experience including his last position as senior pastor at Yorba Linda Community Church.

He received his PhD in practical theology with a concentration in homiletics, and continues to focus his teaching and consulting on the areas of speech, worship, missional theology and homiletics. ... We hear plenty of discussion about missional theology, missional leadership and missional church planting. But what about missional preaching? Now that the church in the West lives within a postChristendom context, how should preaching look different? What homiletical assumptions arose within Christendom but are no longer relevant for a missionary church? In The Mission of Preaching, Patrick Johnson develops the first missional homiletic, a model for preaching determined by the missionary encounter between the gospel and Western culture. Mobilizing the latest resources in homiletical theory and missional theology, he argues that preaching is a major form of the church’s witness to Jesus Christ, equipping the congregation for its witness to the world.

Interpreting the Prophets equips the reader with the knowledge and skills they need to interpret the Prophets in a faithful and accurate fashion. Beginning with the nature of the prophetic role and prophetic books in Israel, Old Testament scholar Aaron Chalmers leads the reader through the various “worlds” of Israel’s prophets—historical, social, theological and rhetorical—providing the basic contextual and background information needed both for sound and sensible exegesis and for sensitive interpretation and application for today. He concludes with a helpful chapter giving guidelines for preaching from the Prophets—including advice on choosing the texts, making appropriate analogies, and the potential problems and common pitfalls to avoid. Aaron Chalmers (PhD, Flinders University) is head of the School of Ministry, Theology and Culture at Tabor Adelaide, a multidenominational, evangelical college in Adelaide, Australia. He teaches in the field of Old Testament and hermeneutics and is passionate about helping Christians engage with the Hebrew Scriptures. He is the author of Exploring the Religion of Ancient Israel: Prophet, Priest, Sage and People. Ethics John E. Stapleford Bulls, Bears and Golden Calves J o h n E . S ta p l E f o r d (Third Edition) Applying Christian Ethics in Economics B u l l S, ”Keying the book to the leading textbooks, John BEarS Stapleford provides an indispensable resource for students and teachers of introductory economics courses—though the book merits study outside the classroom as well.” Kenneth G. Elzinga, professor of economics, University of Virginia and GoldEn C a lv E S ”The book takes seriously the authority of Scripture in critically reflecting on the core assumptions of economics while guiding readers in an irenic yet chal- applyinG ChriStian EthiCS in EConomiCS lenging manner.” Edd Noell, professor of economics and business, Westmont College Self-interest, economic efficiency and private property rights are among the most basic assumptions of market economics. But can an economic theory built on these assumptions alone provide adequate insight into human nature, motivation and ultimate goals to guide our economic life? John Stapleford says no, along with those economists who recognize the limits of their discipline. He insightfully shows us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with economic life and analysis. Writing from a Christian ethical perspective, he interacts with seven standard introductory economics texts, exploring the moral challenges embedded in various macro-, micro- and international economic theories and outlining a faithful response to them. The third edition includes two new chapters on economics as a science and global poverty plus expanded discussions of entitlements, government debt, healthcare reform and immigration reform. John E.

Molnar relies on the thinking of Karl Barth and Thomas F. Torrance in dialogue with other contemporary theologians (Catholic and Protestant) about divine and human freedom. Powerfully argued and meticulously documented, Molnar’s magisterial study begins with an extensive discussion of the role of faith in knowing God through his incarnate Word and thus through the Holy Spirit. He considers the divine freedom as the basis for true human freedom and discusses the perils of embracing a historicized Christology, expounding on how the doctrine of justification by faith relates to living in the power of the Holy Spirit and the economy of grace. Paul D. Molnar (PhD, Fordham University) is professor of systematic theology at St. John’s University in Queens, New York. He is the author of Incarnation and Resurrection, Karl Barth and the Theology of the Lord’s Supper and Thomas F. Torrance: Theologian of the Trinity, and has been published in journals such as the Scottish Journal of Theology, International Journal of Systematic Theology and Modern Theology.

Martin New StudieS iN BiBlical theology Bound for the Promised Land The Land Promise in God’s Redemptive Plan “[Martin’s] synthesis of the land promises, kingdom promises and eschatology is thought-provoking and sometimes moving.” From the preface by D. A. Carson Just as the Old Testament book of Genesis begins with creation, where humans live in the presence of their Lord, so the New Testament book of Revelation ends with an even more glorious new creation where all of the redeemed dwell with the Lord and his Christ. The historical development between the beginning and the end is crucial, for the journey proceeds through the land promised to Abraham. The Promised Land is the place where God’s people will once again live under his lordship and experience his blessed presence. In this stimulating study from the New Studies in Biblical Theology series, Oren Martin demonstrates how the land promise advances the place of the kingdom that was lost in Eden, also serving as a type throughout Israel’s history that anticipates the even greater land that will result from the person and work of Christ and be enjoyed in the new creation for eternity. Oren R. Martin (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is assistant professor of Christian theology at Boyce College at Southern Seminary. Martin has written articles for publications such as the Journal of Evangelical Theological Society, Trinity Journal, the Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood and the Gospel Coalition.

Elowsky Commentary on John, Volume 2 Cyril of Alexandria (ca. 378–444), one of the most brilliant representatives of the Alexandrian theological tradition, is best known for championing the term Theotokos (Godbearer) in opposition to Nestorius of Constantinople. Cyril’s great Commentary on John, offered here in the Ancient Christian Texts series in two volumes, predates the Nestorian controversy and focuses its theological firepower against Arianism. The commentary, addressed to catechists, displays Cyril’s breathtaking mastery of the full content of the Bible and his painstaking attention to detail as he offers practical teaching for the faithful on the cosmic story of God’s salvation. David R. Maxwell provides readers with the first completely fresh English translation of the text since the nineteenth century. It rests on Pusey’s critical edition of the Greek text and displays Cyril’s profound theological interpretation of Scripture and his appeal to the patristic tradition that preceded him. Today’s readers will find the commentary an indispensable tool for understanding Cyril’s approach to Scripture. David R. Maxwell (PhD, University of Notre Dame) is associate professor of systematic theology at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri. An ordained minister in the Lutheran Church and a trained organist, Maxwell has also done work on the theological symbolism of J. S. Bach’s Clavierübung III. Joel C. Elowsky (PhD, Drew University) is associate professor of historical theology at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.

This book is a wonderful legacy from one of the very greatest of Englishlanguage systematic theologians.” Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury edited by r o b e r t t. wa l k e r The late Thomas F. Torrance has been called “the greatest Reformed theologian since Karl Barth” and “the greatest British theologian of the twentieth century” by prominent voices in the academy. His work has profoundly shaped contemporary theology in the English-speaking world. This first of two volumes comprises Thomas Torrance’s lectures delivered to students in Christian dogmatics on Christology at New College, Edinburgh, from 1952 to 1978. In eight chapters these expertly edited lectures highlight Torrance’s distinctive belief that the object of our theological study—Jesus Christ—actively gives himself to us in order that we may know him. Thomas F. Torrance (1913–2007) occupied the chair of Christian dogmatics at the University of Edinburgh for twenty-seven years. He was the recipient of the Templeton Foundation Prize for Progress in 1978, and he served as moderator of the Church of Scotland and coeditor of the Scottish Journal of Theology. Robert T. Walker teaches theology at Edinburgh University. As T. F. Torrance’s nephew, Walker has gained an intimate understanding of Torrance’s theology, studying under him and hearing these lectures given in person.

Duguid The Song of Songs An Introduction and Commentary This Old Testament book, “the best of songs”, has fascinated and perplexed interpreters for centuries. We hear the passionate melody of romantic love and are confronted by erotic imagery, but whose love is described? Is it a couple’s love for each other, God’s love for his people, or a poem that speaks to love in all its dimensions? Iain Duguid’s Tyndale Old Testament Commentary explains how the Song is designed to show us an idealized picture of married love, in the context of a fallen and broken world. It also convicts us of how far short of this perfection we fall, both as humans and as lovers, and drives us repeatedly into the arms of our true heavenly husband, Jesus Christ. Series updates include discoveries from the Ancient Near East, a key emphasis on linguistics and a revised exegetical format. This volume includes introduction, translation, analysis and section-by-section commentary, with each section of scriptural text including segments on context, comment and meaning. Iain M. Duguid (PhD, University of Cambridge) is professor of Old Testament at Grove City College and pastor of Christ Presbyterian Church in Grove City, Pennsylvania. He has also served as a missionary in Liberia, taught at Reformed Seminary and Westminster Seminary California, and planted churches in Fallbrook, California, and Oxford, England. He is the author of Living in the Gap Between Promise and Reality and Hero of Heroes, as well as commentaries on Ezekiel, Daniel, Ruth, Esther and more.

Stulac, 978-0-8308-4016-8, $17.00 James (Second Edition) The genius of the letter of James lies in its powerfully simple call for repentance, for action, for a consistent Christian lifestyle. In this revised commentary Douglas Moo allows James’s words to cut through our theological debates, our personal preconceptions, our spiritual malaise and return us to an invigorating, transforming Christianity. This second edition in the storied Tyndale New Testament Commentary series includes an updated and expanded introduction, analysis and section-by-section commentary of the book of James. “The Bible is being translated, commented on, read, studied, preached and analyzed as never before. But it is questionable whether it is being obeyed to a comparable degree,” says Moo in the preface. “All this suggests that the message of James is one that we all need to hear—and obey.” Written for the educated layperson while also helpful to pastors and scholars, the updated volume takes into account new knowledge, critical questions, literary context and Bible translations. Douglas J. Moo (PhD, University of St Andrews) is the Kenneth T. Wessner Professor of New Testament at Wheaton College. He has written numerous New Testament commentaries for the NIV Application Commentary series and the Tyndale New Testament Commentary series, specifically on the Pauline and general letters. Since 2006, he has chaired the Committee on Bible Translation, the group of scholars charged with revising the text of the NIV, and is the coauthor of The Rapture: Pre-, Mid-, or Post-Tribulational? and The Law, the Gospel, and the Modern Christian: Five Views.

Petterson Haggai, Zechariah & Malachi The post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi are set in times of great adversity. God’s people were minnows in the vast Persian Empire, and the promises of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jerusalem seemed far from their experience. These books, from beginning to end, restate God’s intention to establish his glorious kingdom, and explain what this means for the lives of his people. For Haggai and Zechariah, the immediate challenge was to rebuild the temple in view of God’s return. For Malachi, the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had infected the people’s attitudes towards God, and how this needed to change in view of future judgment. God used each of these prophets to remind the people of the true King and to reorder their lives and their community in the light of the reality of his coming kingdom. In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary, Anthony Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic books, setting them in their wider biblical-theological context. He shows the connections between the post-exilic world and our own, and explains how these books contain a vital message for the church today, living in the gap between promise and reality.

Now this paperback edition of N. T. Wright’s classic work contains even more insight with an all-new introduction by the author. Wright challenges us to roll up our sleeves and take seriously the study of the historical Jesus. He writes, “Many Christians have been, frankly, sloppy in their thinking and talking about Jesus, and hence, sadly, in their praying and in their practice of discipleship. We cannot assume that by saying the word Jesus, still less the word Christ, we are automatically in touch with the real Jesus who walked and talked in first-century Palestine.” The Challenge of Jesus poses a double-edged challenge: to grow in our understanding of the historical Jesus within the Palestinian world of the first century, and to follow Jesus more faithfully into the postmodern world of the twentyfirst century. N. T. Wright is a prolific writer of both scholarly and popular books, including Jesus and the Victory of God, Simply Christian, The Original Jesus and What Saint Paul Really Said. His N. T.

Relationships, identities, orientations and even concepts such as gender have cut battle lines between the church and the world. In the fog of war and the cloud of conflict, it’s increasingly hard to see our way clearly. There is hope, however. Debra Hirsch has seen it firsthand—in meaningful lifelong relationships with LGBT friends and neighbors, in Christian fellowships, and in movements that have held a concern for people created in God’s image and a high view of the Bible’s teaching on sexuality in constructive tension. When you consider the world from the perspective of God’s kingdom mission, it turns out the smoke clears and a redemptive imagination takes root. Discover a holistic, biblical vision of sex and gender that honors God and offers good news to the world. Debra Hirsch has led churches and ministries among young adults, the poor and the LGBT community for over twenty years. She is a minister of an eclectic bunch of missional artists and vagabonds called the Tribe of Los Angeles and is coauthor of Untamed: Reactivating a Missional Form of Discipleship (with Alan Hirsch).

This book takes twenty-five plus years of experience and gives us lessons and testimony to how CCDA brings the cross alive and makes it relevant today.” Where the Cross Meets the Street What happens to the neighborhood when God is at the center Leroy Barber, global executive director, Word Made Flesh The cross means more than we’ve let it mean. Proclaiming the gospel and forming the faithful: these are the most practiced disciplines of the evangelical church. As central as these disciplines are, however, they are only part of the story. And as Christian Community Development Association (CCDA) CEO Noel Castellanos has learned over a lifetime of ministry and mission, the neglect of the gospel’s full implications has contributed to the erosion of communities and the languishing of poor and other marginalized people. Here Castellanos shows the strengths and limitations of a narrowly focused church and broadens our imaginations to embrace a gospel that proclaims Christ and forms disciples. This life-giving gospel also demonstrates compassion, confronts injustice and restores individuals and communities to wholeness. This is the whole work of the cross; this is the privilege of those who follow the Word made flesh. Noel Castellanos works in Latino, urban communities across the country serving in youth ministry, church planting, advocacy and community development. He is chief executive officer of the CCDA and was the founding pastor of Chicago’s La Villita Community Church. He is the coauthor of A Heart for the Community and New Models for Urban and Suburban Ministry.

Davis Making Disciples across cultures Making Disciples Across Cultures Missional Principles for a Diverse World Making Disciples ”Charles Davis applies a distinctively missionary analysis to the worn-out ecclesiologies of our time. But it’s not all critique and analysis: built on narrative across cultures Missional principles for a Diverse World and experience, he lovingly provides the church with a very useful diagnostic tool that gives us viable pathways toward renewal of church life and mission.” Alan Hirsch, founding director of Forge Missional charles a.

We often unconsciously bring our own cultural assumptions into ministry and mission, but in today’s global environment, disciplemaking requires the humility and flexibility to adapt between different cultural approaches. Charles Davis, former director of TEAM (The Evangelical Alliance Mission), provides a framework for missional disciplemaking across diverse cultural contexts. With on-the-ground stories from a lifetime of mission experience, Davis navigates such tensions as knowledge and behavior, individualism and collectivism, and truth and works to help Christian workers minister more effectively.

Sometimes Christians are too quick to claim that they are being persecuted. But Christians aren’t just being paranoid or alarmist. Anti-Christian hostility is real. Sociologist George Yancey explores the phenomenon of Christianophobia, an intense animosity against Christians and the Christian faith. Among some circles, opposition to Christianity manifests much like other historic prejudices like anti-Semitism or racial discrimination. While Christianophobia in the United States does not typically rise to the violent levels of religious persecution in other parts of the world, Christians are often still treated in ways that perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to culture war acrimony. Yancey unpacks the underlying perspectives and root causes of Christianophobia, and he considers to what extent Christians have themselves contributed to anti-Christian hostility. At times, criticisms of Christians are justified, but Christians can confront untruths without capitulation. In this truthful yet hope-filled treatise, Yancey shows how Christians can respond more constructively, defusing tensions and working toward the common good. George Yancey (PhD, University of Texas) is professor of sociology at the University of North Texas, specializing in race/ethnicity, biracial families and anti-Christian bias. He is the author, coauthor or coeditor of books such as Compromising Scholarship: Religious and Political Bias in American Higher Education, Dehumanizing Christians: Cultural Competition in a Multicultural World, There Is No God: Atheists in America, Beyond Black and White, Beyond Racial Gridlock and Just Don’t Marry One. He is the founder of Reconciliation Consulting, helping churches and ministries develop and sustain a multiracial emphasis.

I cannot and will not go back to the faith I have clung to for decades. I am done with it.” This is not a declaration of being done with faith, but it is a recognition that faith has to change. Many of us are grappling with similar doubts. How much can we actually know about God and our world? Who is right and who is wrong? Whose “truth” is really true? Do I need God to live a life that matters? We have questions not because we reject faith in God, but because we live in a rapidly changing world of new realities, new technology and new insights that demand new answers. This changes how we live, communicate, think and believe. We know we are moving from somewhere, but we don’t exactly know what we are moving toward. That’s what this book is about. Michael Hidalgo is the lead pastor of Denver Community Church, which under his leadership has grown from forty people to over 1,500. A graduate of Grand Rapids Theological Seminary, Hidalgo served alongside Ed Dobson as a teaching pastor at Calvary Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan. With the ONE Campaign and Malaria No More, Hidalgo has addressed thousands nationally. He writes regularly for Relevant Magazine and Sojourners. Hidalgo, his wife and three children live in Denver.
