Global Gospel, 2nd ed. An Introduction to World Christianity Douglas Jacobsen
This thoroughly updated second edition makes the complexity of world Christianity comprehensible. Highlighting Christianity’s four largest traditions (Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and Pentecostalism), Global Gospel describes both the shared history and the regional distinctives of Christian faith in Africa, Asia (including the Pacific), Europe, Latin America, and North America. “ Global Gospel should be required reading for those who seek to understand the world’s largest religion. This updated version of Jacobsen’s classic retains the clarity, accessibility, and accuracy of the first edition, while bringing readers up to date on contemporary developments in the world Christian movement. Students of all levels will enjoy Jacobsen’s clear writing, thoughtful analyses, and meaningful selection of photos and sidebars. A terrific starting point for understanding Christianity around the world today.” —Dana L. Robert, Boston University

The Justification of the Sinless On Supralapsarian Christology and the Goodness of the Incarnation Brendan Case STUDIES IN HISTORICAL AND SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY This book argues that God the Son would have become incarnate even if humanity had never sinned, for the incarnation benefits creation in many ways besides redemption; indeed, it is the ultimate reason for the creation of the cosmos itself. “A creative, rousing, contemporary defense of Robert Grosseteste’s supra- lapsarian Christology. Case shows his characteristic ingenuity and textual dex- terity in bringing to the present Grosseteste’s thirteenth-century arguments. This book duly honors the dynamic and creative thought of Grosseteste.” —Justus H. Hunter, United Theological Seminary “Once situated at the margins of theological discourse, supralapsarian Christology is enjoying a remarkable renaissance. The Justification of the Sinless is a truly excellent contribution to this conversation, excavating six arguments of one of its medieval pioneers, Robert Grosseteste.” —Edwin Chr. van Driel, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary
