Practicing Gospel is a collection of four new and eight previously published essays on the subjects of practical theology, homiletics and worship, Christian education, and pastoral care. Edward Farley offers a more faithful approach to the tasks of ministry for seminarians and pastors too often tempted to equate pastoral care with popular psychology, good preaching with snappy public speaking, or Christian education with flashy curriculum. By holding theology and practice in an inescapable partnership, Farley rightly re-focuses the church's life on its proper object and subject--a mysterious transforming God.

Christians are called to be thankful. What we believe about God is evident in how we exhibit thankfulness for all he has done. In this book, pastor Sam Crabtree encourages us to express glad-hearted thankfulness for God's unending provision in all circumstances. Through the daily practices of expressing gratitude—saying "thank you" to a neighbor, serving others in practical ways, or simply thanking God for his many gifts—we recognize the absolute and total lordship of God and his sovereignty over all things.

What did God use to draw a radical, committed unbeliever to himself? Did God take her to an evangelistic rally? Or, since she had her doctorate in literature, did he use something in print? No, God used an invitation to dinner in a modest home, from a humble couple who lived out the gospel daily, simply, and authentically. With this story of her conversion as a backdrop, Rosaria Butterfield invites us into her home to show us how God can use this same "radical, ordinary hospitality" to bring the gospel to our lost friends and neighbors. Such hospitality sees our homes as not our own, but as God's tools for the furtherance of his kingdom as we welcome those who look, think, believe, and act differently from us into our everyday, sometimes messy lives—helping them see what true Christian faith really looks like.

The Gospels And Christian Life reads the four canonical Gospels as handbooks for religious formation through communal practices. The book focuses on the communities that produced each gospel, the dynamic energy each gospel displays for creating and sustaining community life, the different interpretations of the person of Jesus, and the different systems of organization and leadership each gospel promulgated. The authors carefully describe the social context of each Gospel and delineate the practices the texts prescribe. Each gospel has an imaginative portal, an introductory chapter introducing the necessary background for understanding the social, intellectual, and religious setting for each gospel. Their reading of each Gospel builds on these foundations to illustrate the nature and scope of the community's practices. Their work starts from the assumption that the communities did not look to the Gospels for biographical data on the life of Jesus to offer the reader a powerful reading of each Gospel community, its unique practices, and the way people were trained to become members of it. This book is aimed at undergraduate and graduate teachers and students, pastors, and the general audience eager for new ways to understand the New Testament.

How might practice theories and engagement with practice contribute to and advance theological study of religion and religious life and practices? This volume explores and discusses how theological engagement with practice, theoretically as well as empirically, might profit from theories of practice developed in disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, education and organisational studies during the recent decades, but so far scarcely employed within theology. In part I, the volume unfolds key components of practice theory, especially as they have more recently been developed within sociological practice theories, reflect on their significance and potential with regard to theology. In part II, these perspectives are employed in the study of concrete religious practices - established as well as experimental religious practices, and collective as well as individual ones. By unfolding connections between theology and practice theories, and reflecting on practice theories' analytical and theoretical potential for theological study of religion, the book will be of interest for any scholar in the study of contemporary religion and practical theology.

From major issues such as the threat of terrorism or the war in Iraq, through to social issues such as abortion or euthanasia, contemporary Christians are faced with almost daily quandaries. Often the first person a Christian will turn to in times of trouble or uncertainty is their local priest. In this day and age priests need to be able to address any number of problems and questions that parishioners have, often with little in the way of counseling training. This book, written by two respected authors - one a preacher, the other an ethicist, will go a long way to not only helping priests to provide moral discernment, but to actively welcome helping people through difficult times

From the vantage point of living on another continent and being able to look at US Christianity more objectively, Ryan Porter identifies the Gospel deficiency in current Western Christianity - we are Gospelsick. Using his lens of medicine, he both diagnoses the church’s illness and provides the treatments needed to recover from the deficiency. Gospel Deficiency (n.): the inhibition or minimization of the gospel of Jesus Christ in the lives of His followers (those in the church), characterized by increased fear and obsession with worldly interest, and leading to a decrease in the benefits of the world-changing gospel in us and in our proclamation of it to others. Gospelsick: A Missionary Doctor’s Prescription for Church Revival offers a powerful prescription for revitalizing the Church in today's world. Drawing from his experiences as a medical doctor working overseas in Africa, Ryan Porter provides a fresh perspective on the state of the Church and offers practical strategies for igniting a revival of faith and passion. Gospelsick is more than just a critique—it is a prescription for revival. Dr. Porter outlines practical steps that churches and individuals can take to foster spiritual renewal and revitalization. Honing in on issues such as discipleship, faith, mission, evangelism, and community, he provides a roadmap for reclaiming the vibrant, transformative power of the Gospel.

Our treatment of animals is a gospel issue, Andrew Linzey contends, because those individuals and institutions that could have become the voice of God's most vulnerable creatures have instead justified cruelty and oppression. He offers an inspiring personal account of the gospel truths that have sustained his commitment to the cause of animals for more than twenty-five years.
