› Find signed collectible books: 'The Act of Bible Reading: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Biblical Interpretation'Book summary:Many approaches for interpreting the Bible have been put forth in recent years. All have their strengths--and their weaknesses. The Act of Bible Reading combines the strengths of several of these approaches into one volume which will enrich our reading of the Bible. Gordon Fee and Elmer Dyck discuss history and canon, respectively, as contexts for interpretation, highlighting the importance of historical-grammatical interpretation within a canonical setting for understanding biblical texts. J. I. Packer explores the importance of theology, both as it informs and as it safeguards Bible reading. Craig M. Gay proffers key insights from sociology, especially the sociology of knowledge, as it cautions us to ask not only what the text says, but who says it says that and why should we believe what they are telling us it says. Facing the challenges of modern secular hermeneutics from Heidigger and Nietzsche to Derrida and Foucault, Loren Wilkinson counters the postmodern reaction against truth. James Houston argues that the aim of Bible reading must be godliness and not mere scholarship. And Eugene Peterson then responds to the collection of insights as a whole. For readers who want to take the next steps in understanding the Bible for themselves, here is here is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to benefit from the combined insight of a distinguished group of teachers.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Earthkeeping, Christian Stewardship of Natural Resources'Book summary:At a time when the world's resources are dwindling, much attention is being directed toward conservation of natural resources. The modern generation especially, after years of careless consumption, feels the responsibility for preserving the environment for future generations. And Christians have an added obligation in this regard, for when they affirm that God loved the world and that Christ died for the life of the world, they are speaking not just of humanity, but of the whole planet--indeed, the whole created universe. This book constitutes a holistic approach to the subject of Christian stewardship of natural resources. Drawing on economics, history, philosophy, and theology, as well as the natural sciences and environmental studies, it addresses the resource-use problems the world faces today. The book is the result of a year-long study by a group of Christian scholars and students. Brought together at the Calvin College Center for Christian Scholarship, the group was made up of scholars from various disciplines who were able to integrate their fields of specialization into an in-depth study of this very current issue. The authors' intent throughout is not to deal in specifics, such as what kind of car to buy, or what kind of legislation the government should pass. Rather, they consider the enormously difficult and important knowledge that in the gospel of Christ, God shows people not only how to attain eternal life, but also how to care for the creation in which He has placed us as stewards.
