Splendid. Serious. Essential.
God’s Adversary and Ours by Philip G. Ziegler
"Simply fantastic. Concise, well-researched and argued, with a surprising takeaway and relevance regarding an underutilized doctrine. What more could one want from a work of theology?"

Terrific critical introduction to Thomas Kelly, offering a sharp rebuke of an earlier bibliographic account that looked skeptically at Kelly's reputation as a timeless devotional voice, arguing that he can be viewed as a man and thinker (solely) of h ...more

A Testament of Devotion by Thomas R. Kelly
"Art. What a beautifully written book. Kelly describes a Christian way of life quite different from what I've heard before, yet he writes in such a way that you know he's lived such a life - one that is deeply oriented towards the Center, and bursting" Read more of this review »

Ellen F. Davis
“Bonhoeffer’s permanent legacy as a theologian has been to show that in the modern world, as in Josiah’s and Huldah’s Jerusalem, fostering the discomfiting yet life-giving practice of reading the Bible against ourselves is a major public responsibility of the Christian teacher and theologian.”
Ellen F. Davis, Biblical Prophecy: Perspectives for Christian Theology, Discipleship, and Ministry

Teresa de Ávila
“But, as I know that strength arising from obedience has a way of simplifying things which seem impossible, my will very gladly resolves to attempt this task although the prospect seems to cause my physical nature great distress; for the Lord has not given me strength enough to enable me to wrestle continually both with sickness and with occupations of many kinds without feeling a great physical strain. May He Who has helped me by doing other and more difficult things for me help also in this: in His mercy I put my trust.”
Teresa of Ávila, Interior Castle

Rebecca  Ryder
“You’ve suffered a long time, yet you continue to stay, not because it’s easy but because you don’t want to hurt the people around you. Every day of your life so far, despite the pain, you have chosen to stay. People rarely talk about this side of suicide, but every time you make that decision not to end things, you’re making a sacrifice that most people can’t even begin to understand. You’re not a coward, you are not taking the ‘easy way out.’ You’re fighting a battle every single day, and you’re doing it out of love. I don’t think you realise just how brave that is. Not only is it an act of incredible selflessness, but it is something quite extraordinary.”
Rebecca Ryder, The Dream To End All Dreams
