Book Description
This volume deals with the female dynasty of the House of David and its influence on the Jewish Messianic Myth. It provides a missing link in the chain of research on the topic of messianism and contributes to the understanding of the connection between female transgression and redemption, from the Bible through Rabbinic literature until the Zohar. The discussion of the centrality of the mother image in Judeo-Christian culture and the parallels between the appearance of Mary in the Gospels and the Davidic Mothers in the Hebrew Bible, stresses mutual representations of "the mother of the messiah" in Christian and Jewish imaginaire. Through the prism of gender studies and by stressing questions of femininity, motherhood and sexuality, the subject appears in a new light. This research highlights the importance of intertwining Jewish literary study with comparative religion and gender theories, enabling the process of filling in the 'mythic gaps' in classical Jewish sources. The book won the Pines, Lakritz and Warburg awards.

Book Description
The topic that speaks about how a Christian woman should be attired is a topic that it is constantly discussed in congregations. It is of great contradiction the use of any type of jewelry, like earring, chains or necklace, ornamental comb, hair nets, bracelets, etc. In reference to this, the opinions are divided; some people say that when a person comes to Christ, she goes being cleaned gradually of all kinds of garments, until the time comes that they have to sell or give away all types of jewelry they possessed before coming to Jesus’ feet. There are also those who believe that the transformation takes place internal, not external, in the heart, in the person’s character. Many people affirms that it is a sin and a lack of holiness if a woman use any type of jewelry, but others affirm that holiness doesn’t have anything to do with what the person uses on the eternal. So we have two at least two parties with two different opinions. But which one of them we should believe? Because, if both of them affirm to have bases in the Bible, then: how can we know, what is the will of God? The healthy doctrines are simple, clear and easy to understand, but those that cause divisions don’t belong to Christ, and in most of the cases the divisions are, because of the form so poor how those that affirm to be Christian study the Bible. The certain thing is: if the woman’s sanctification depends on part or in everything what she uses or stops using on the outside, then how to know which one of them has the truth?

Book Description
In Stumbling in Holiness, professor and theologian Brian P. Flanagan addresses the ways in which both holiness and sinfulness condition the life of the pilgrim church. The book is rooted in a liturgical-theological explanation of how the church prays through its continuing need for repentance and purification, as well as its belief in its present and future participation in the life of the Holy One. After reviewing some of the ways in which past theologians have tried to explain the coexistence of ecclesial holiness and sinfulness, Flanagan suggests that, even if we can have confidence that God will fully sanctify the church in the reign of God, our ecclesiology must always attend to both the sanctity we already experience in the church and the sinfulness that is part of our continuing journey toward that reign.

Book Description
"In this dark, when we all talk at once, some of us must learn to whistle." In this comprehensive collection of his work, Craig Keen's voice emerges as that of a theologian who has indeed learned to whistle. In a day when much of what passes for academic "theology" is careful to maintain a safe distance from any determinate act of faith or work of praise, Keen evinces a single-minded determination to think and to speak, to write and to live doxologically. And whether writing or lecturing, teaching or conversing, Keen understands theology to be nothing less than an invitation to work out one's faith with fear and trembling. Throughout this volume Keen argues that the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus disrupt all metaphysical attempts to determine the reality of "God," and suggests instead that theology is to be done liturgically and eucharistically--as the work of a people whose labor is carried out with open hands, free from all attempts to grasp and control. Keen discusses doctrinal issues--the Trinity, incarnation, creation--as well as a number of critical theological concerns--church and culture, justice, holiness, Christian education--in this light. The result is a profound set of reflections on the ways in which the word of the cross simultaneously transgresses our constructions of "God" and gives us to live transgressively in love.

Book Description
This book is written for the Christian who is struggling to reconcile the demands of the Scripture with his own condition. People love to say, "Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven" But, therein lies the rub. The Bible tells us to be holy and challenges us to purposeful perfection (maturity). Since holiness dwells in contradistinction to sin, we have begun with a discussion of the sin principle. What causes the Christian to sin after he has been saved? What is God's provision to "master over it?" God's desire is to have a walking, talking, relationship with Him by His indwelling Holy Spirit and to have complete victory over sin which "crouches at the door." Salvation is a big subject. It is more than just "getting saved" and living happily ever after. Salvation propels us by the grace of God through an often difficult life and into eternity. For now, we need encouragement, healing, correction and renewal under the tutelage of the indwelling Holy Spirit. He brings with Him every good fruit including joy through my circumstances, a love for people and the desire to know God. He removes the root(s) of sin so that my only desire is to be near Jesus, to bring Him blessing, honor, glory and power, because they belong to Him and Him alone.

Book Description
Academic theology is in need of a new genre. In "Transgressive Devotion" Natalie Wigg-Stevenson articulates a theological vision of that genre as performance art. She argues that theology done as performance art stops trying to describe who God is, and starts trying to make God appear. Recognising that the act of studying theology or practicing ministry is always a performance, where the boundaries between what we see, feel, experience and learn are not just blurred but potentially invisible, Wigg-Stevenson brings together ethnographic theological fieldwork, historical and contemporary Christian theological traditions, and performance artworks themselves. A daring vision of theology which will energise anybody feeling ‘boxed in’ by the discipline, Transgressive Devotion blurs borders between orthodoxy, heterodoxy and heresy to reveal how the very act of doing theology makes God and humanity vulnerable to each other. This is theology which is a liturgy of Divine incantation. In other words: this is theology which is also prayer.

Book Description
Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.
