Excerpt from Pious Frauds, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Find this running deep and strong. Here were plenty of stones. To reach them he had to scramble down the bank, which was some ten feet high, and did so, aided by the roots of an ancient pollard willow which stood, thick and stumpy, on the top. Another such flood as we had last year, my friend, he said to the tree, and down you'll come. Then he began searching for stones, musing half aloud as he went There must be no slipping, so these round fellows won't do. Ah! You look more.

Excerpt from Pious Frauds, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel On Saturdays the courts rose early, and it did him no harm to be seen on the river with his cousin. The silver spoon and the wooden ladle were, for once, in the same boat, and that a labour one. Ladle rowed stroke; Spoon had the bow oar. The water loo/red delightfully cool, the wash of the distant weir sounded cool, the next reach, where the willows threw their shadows over the flowery fringes of the bank's green mantle, promised coolness but out in the stream where they were, and rowing against it, the sun was unmistakably hot. Ladle, as is often the case, was out of condition, and puffed; Spoon, wirey little athlete, hadn't turned a hair. Ladle, who had started with a spirit, was ashamed to give in; Spoon.

Book Description
The present volume is the third in a five-volume study of church doctrine. The multivolume set covers the major parts of church doctrine: Canon, God, Creation, Reconciliation, and Redemption. The first volume begins with an introduction to the entire project on why doctrine matters, which stresses the ecumenical, global, and above all biblical horizons of church doctrine as a primary expression of Christian witness. The second volume discusses the doctrine of God. The purpose of this third volume is to reaffirm the traditional church doctrine of Creation, and yet to do so in a way that submits that tradition to the overruling, overpowering authority of Scripture. God the Creator, according to the Bible, owns the entire universe; it does not belong to humankind. We live in service of his covenant of grace; but we do so along with our fellow creatures in a common vulnerability and finitude. The volume addresses the question of how the church doctrine of Creation speaks to the manifold ecological crisis of our time. Church doctrine is not a luxury but a necessity for the living community of faith, by which its witness in word and deed is tested against the one true measure of Christ the risen Lord.

Book Description
While Kierkegaard's use of the Greek authors, particularly Plato and Aristotle, has attracted considerable attention over the years, his use of the Roman authors has, by contrast, remained sadly neglected. This neglect is somewhat surprising given the fact that Kierkegaard was extremely well read in Latin from his early youth when he attended the Borgerdyd School in Copenhagen. Kierkegaard's interest in the Roman authors is perhaps best evidenced by his book collection. In his private library he had a long list of Latin titles and Danish translations of the standard Roman authors in any number of different genres. His extensive and frequent use of writers such as Cicero, Horace, Terence, Seneca, Suetonius and Ovid clearly warrants placing them in the select group of his major sources. The chapters in this volume demonstrate that Kierkegaard made use of the Roman sources in a number of different ways. His readings from the Borgerdyd school seem to have stuck with him as an adult. He constantly refers to Roman authors, such as Livy, Nepos, and Suetonius for colourful stories and anecdotes. In addition, he avails himself of pregnant sayings or formulations from the Roman authors, when appropriate. But his use of these authors is not merely as a rhetorical source. He is also profoundly interested in the Roman philosophy of Cicero, Seneca and Marcus Aurelius. Similarly, just as he is fascinated by Tacitus' portrayal of the early Christians, so also he is amused by the humour of Terence and Apuleius. In short, the Roman authors serve to enrich any number of different aspects of Kierkegaard's authorship with respect to both content and form.

Book Description
The letters found in Volume II reveal inside accounts of how The Screwtape Letters came to be written, the early meetings of the Inklings (with J.R.R. Tolkien giving readings about "hobbits" and "Middle Earth"), how C.S. Lewis became popular through BBC radio talks, but mostly how this quiet professor in England touched the lives of many through an amazing discipline of personal correspondence.
