A New History of Redemption The Work of Jesus the Messiah through the Millennia Gerald R. McDermott Taking inspiration from Jonathan Edwards, Gerald McDermott traces the redeeming work of the Messiah in the Bible and in Church history up through the new heavens and new earth. “This is a book with a bold agenda—to complete and extend an unfinished mas - terpiece by America’s greatest theologian. In these pages Jonathan Edwards comes alive in a new way, and we see how the drama of redemption informs all that he wrote. A tour de force!” —TIMOTHY GEORGE, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University “This is no mere rehash of Edwards. Instead, McDermott works to bring out the astounding beauty of redemption (a much-neglected category in Protestant- ism) for a new generation. A very encouraging volume.” —CARL R. TRUEMAN, Grove City College
Gerald R. McDermott (PhD, University of Iowa), an Anglican priest, teaches at Jerusalem Seminary and Reformed Episcopal Seminary (ACNA).

Mortal Goods Reimagining Christian Political Duty Ephraim Radner
What is our calling as Christians regarding the good life and engagement in the public sphere? In Mortal Goods , Ephraim Radner examines how we might more faithfully and realistically imagine our political vocation.
“In a polarized age when edifying discussions about religion and politics are in short supply, Radner asks us to rethink what we mean by ‘the good life.’ It begins with a self-imposed challenge to write a letter to his children about what makes life valuable. The letter he eventually pens, after pondering various God-given mortal goods, is worth the price of the book.” —KEVIN J. VANHOOZER, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School “Vintage Radner—erudite and incisive—with a twist: at times conversational and even personal.” —KATHRYN GREENE-Mc CREIGHT, priest affiliate, Christ Church, New Haven, Connecticut
Ephraim Radner (PhD, Yale University) is professor emeritus of historical theology at Wycliffe College, University of Toronto.
