E-book The Gospel of John and Christian Theology

In recent years, the disciplines of biblical studies and systematic theology have grown apart and largely lost the means of effective communication with one another. Unfortunately, this relational disconnect affects more than just these particular fields of study; it impacts the life of the church as a whole. The first St. Andrews Conference on Scripture and Theology brought leading biblical sc…

E-book Conflict-Sensitive Conservation : Lessons from the Global Environment …

In recent years, rapid growth in practice and scholarship at the intersection of environment, conflict, and peace has given rise to the new field of environmental peacebuilding (Ide etal., 2021).

E-book Evolution: What the Fossils Say and Why It Matters

Donald R. Prothero’s Evolution is an entertaining and rigorous history of the transitional forms and series found in the fossil record.

E-book Red Dynamite : Creationism, Culture Wars, and Anticommunism in America

In a limited sense, this story is true. 1 Yet it is profoundly misleading. Based on the myth that Christian fundamentalists walked away from poli­tics for decades after the Scopes trial, our thumbnail sketch neglects a continuous pattern of Christian conservative political activism from the 1920s through the 1970s. And it misses the true origin story of this activ­ism b…

E-book Marketing

Marketing involves more than just activities performed by a group of people in a defined area or department.
