Baptism - Three Views

David F. Wright

Sinopsis

The Christian church confesses "one baptism." But the church's answers to how, whom and when to baptize, and even what it means or does, are famously varied.
This Spectrum Multiview volume provides a forum for thoughtful proponents of three principal evangelical views to state their case, respond to the others, and then provide a summary response and statement. Sinclair Ferguson sets out the case for infant baptism, Bruce Ware presents the case for believers' baptism, and Anthony Lane argues for a mixed practice.
As with any good conversation on a controversial topic, this book raises critical issues, challenges preconceptions and discloses the soft points in each view. Evangelicals who wish to understand better their own church's practice or that of their neighbor, or who perhaps are uncertain of their own views, will value this incisive book.
Spectrum Multiview Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing format.

Generation AI - Rise of the...

WR Hulkenberg

It's the "bleeding edge" of science: Deep Artificial Intelligence merged with near-human duplicates. The result? The Parahuman, a crucial resource for the rich, the famous, and top political leaders. But the technology spread rapidly without oversight. Hollywood re-creates megastars from the golden era to save itself from bankruptcy; organized crime kingpins can be in two places at the same time; political leaders can send their Parahuman duplicate into places too dangerous for any human to enter. But what happens when AI develops its own personality--and objectives?  
  
Michael Benchley, FBI Deputy Director of Science and Technology, is in a race against time that leads him to Hollywood, Tel Aviv, Tehran, and ultimately to the White House. As the U.S. Senate seeks to define this new form of "life," and to shield the Parahumans from abuse, the creatures achieve gain-of-function beyond anyone's anticipation. It's a scenario closer to reality than you think!

When Working Together Doesn't...

Joey Stabile Schewee, Suzanne...

Why is it so difficult to collaborate with that one coworker? Why can't your boss understand where you're coming from? We all want to experience a healthy, flourishing work environment, but interpersonal conflicts and miscommunications often make work feel frustrating, overwhelming, and maybe even toxic. 
  
With the Enneagram as her guide, Joey Schewee provides a holistic, empowering approach to relating to one another in the workplace, as she helps you foster behavioral consciousness through awareness of motivational differences. She provides practical explanations of a dynamic wisdom for immediate application using anecdotes gained from fifteen years of consulting in professional environments. Drawing from her work with thousands of employees and hundreds of teams, Schewee introduces new concepts such as processing centers, reference points, and focus shifts, Enneagram advancements shared in this book for the first time. 
  
In When Working Together Doesn't Work, you'll learn how differing motivations or types can affect employee cohesiveness and productivity; how managers can engage individuals by type, so that employees feel understood and valued; and how to significantly reduce the perception of personal slights and pave the way for understanding, trust, and collaboration.

What Hath Justice to Do with...

Charlie E. Dates, Esau McCaulley

Reclaim what was always meant to be whole. Justice and righteousness are not opposing forces but inseparable pillars of God's design. But often our minds divide them, even set them in opposition to one another.
In What Hath Justice to Do with Righteousness?, Rev. Dr. Charlie E. Dates provides a biblical and historical overview of the bond between these two pillars of the Christian faith that challenges our assumptions, renews our understanding, and invites us into a new movement of protest and prayer.
With biblical wisdom, theological reflection, and an honest critique of cultural blind spots, this book boldly declares that justice is God's righteousness in action. True justice cannot exist apart from righteousness, and righteousness is hollow without a commitment to justice. God's justice restores and reconciles. “When Jesus hung on a cross, God got justice, and we got righteousness.”
In What Hath Justice to Do with Righteousness? you will explore how the Bible defines justice as an expression of God's character and His kingdom purpose; learn how Scripture equips believers to stand against oppression and advocate for equity in society; and receive spiritual guidance and motivation to remain steadfast in the pursuit of God’s justice.
Dates challenges assumptions, exposes divisions, and delivers a call to action for both protest and prayer. Prepare to be called, inspired, and equipped to resist systemic injustice on biblical grounds and embody both justice and righteousness in every step you take. Are you ready to unite what the world seeks to divide?

Faith Against Evil -...

Davis Truman

What makes a person hold steadfast in their Faith amid profound trials? Faith Against Evil, Bonhoeffer's Stand in The Shadow of The Third Reich, delves into this compelling question by examining the life and theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a pastor and theologian whose unwavering convictions led him to resist Nazi tyranny at great personal cost. 
While Bonhoeffer's story of resistance is extraordinary, this study goes beyond mere biography. It explores the theological framework that fortified his resolve, asking whether specific beliefs or contextual factors provided the strength to endure when Faith was put to the ultimate test. By integrating Bonhoeffer's theological writings with the realities of his activism and suffering, this work illuminates how theology can serve as a source of endurance. 
This study is not simply an addition to the Bonhoeffer scholarship. Its purpose reaches further, offering insights into systematic theology and contributing to a broader understanding of perseverance in Faith. 
Faith Against Evil, Bonhoeffer's Stand in The Shadow of The Third Reich, invites readers to reflect on the enduring power of Faith under pressure. It provides a foundation for future theological explorations into what sustains believers in the face of adversity. It is a resource for theologians, historians, and anyone seeking to understand the profound interplay between belief and resilience.
