Practicing Christian Doctrine An Introduction to Thinking and Living Theologically, 2nd ed. Beth Felker Jones Updated and revised throughout, this second edition also includes a new section on gender and race and new end-of-chapter material connecting each doctrine to a spiritual discipline. “Already one of the most sound and readable theology texts available, the second edition now enlarges spiritual disciplines and social issues to be even more engaging, relevant, and inspirational.” —W. BRIAN SHELTON, Asbury University “I have been using this book in my theology classes for years. Readers don’t have to follow Jones on every point in order to appreciate the way she even- handedly treats the evangelical options on each doctrine. This book is, in my estimation, simply the best and most accessible introduction to theology for students new to the discipline. My students love it.” —R. LUCAS STAMPS, Oklahoma Baptist University

Beth Felker Jones (PhD, Duke University) is professor of theology at Northern Seminary.

Abundantly More The Theological Promise of the Arts in a Reductionist World Jeremy S. Begbie In a culture that so often seems to shrink and flatten our vision, the arts can break our imaginations open. In conversation with multiple art forms, Jeremy Begbie helps us see this world and ourselves as infinitely richer than we could ever imagine: as created and redeemed by the inexhaustible love of God. “Begbie articulates a creative, constructive pneumatology that deepens our understanding of the resonance between theology and the arts. A remarkable achievement that breaks new ground.” —JAMES K. A. SMITH, Calvin University; editor in chief, Image “A must-read for theologians and church leaders.” —W. DAVID O. TAYLOR, Fuller Theological Seminary

Jeremy S. Begbie (PhD, University of Aberdeen) is Thomas A. Langford Distin - guished Research Professor of Theology and McDonald Agape Director of Duke Initiatives in Theology and the Arts at Duke Divinity School.
