Book Description
In this book John Polkinghorne and Michael Welker explain how they understand faith in the living God. Between them, they offer a "binocular vision from [their] twin perspectives to yield helpful insight in relation to the important issues." Part of the fascination of this book is how two people with such different backgrounds approach central theological questions relating to the faith they both share. Their concerns are truth rather than polemics, reliability rather than simple certainty. They seek to anchor their thought in concrete particulars rather than abstract generalizations. They ask the questions that trouble the inquiring mind, and meet head-on the challenge as well as the reassurances of belief. This second edition provides a new Preface and updated bibliographies.

Book Description
This is a book about God. Not just any god, but the god that created Adam and Eve; the god of Abraham, the god of the Jews; the god of the Christians; and the god of Islam---without a doubt, the most influential figure in the history of human civilization. But what do we really know about him? Who is he? Where did he come from? What does he look like? What sort of character does he have? What, if anything, does he eat? Does he have a family? In what ways can he be said to even exist at all? Alexander Waugh has been asking questions like these for as long as he can remember. Now, having drawn from an enormous range of sources, from the sacred books of the Torah, the Christian New Testament, and the Islamic Qur'an, from the Greek Apocrypha and the ancient texts of Nag Hammadi to the Dead Sea Scrolls, he has sought out the answers. Using material gleaned from the diverse writings of saints, rabbis, historians, prophets, atheists, poets, and mystics, he has molded his findings into a singular, striking biographical portrait of God. Erudite, perceptive, and entertaining, God reveals many startling and unexpected characteristics of the divine being. From the simple stories of Genesis and Job, explored from God's own viewpoint, to the prophecies of Muhammad and Sybil and the intricate philosophies of Newton and Nietzsche, Alexander Waugh has left no stone unturned in his compulsive mission to create a fascinating and complex portrait of God, as humans have claimed to understand him.

Book Description
Attorney Ronald E. Richardson’s real passion is his faith in Jesus Christ aka Yeshua HaMashiach. His obsession with man’s inability to come to terms with the concept of being created to be God in the flesh has led him to publish his first book, Oneness With God: A Christian Attorney’s Analysis of What It Means to be Created in the Image and After the Likeness of God in 2006 with Beckham Publications Group, Inc. He was the first recipient of the Agape Gospel Academy literary award presented at the Apollo Theater in February, 2007. Since then, Richardson has embarked on a further theological exploration into the mysteries of God to be examined in his Revised Edition. Richardson, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, has decided to revise his current publication by inserting additional material and insight. In the revised edition described here, he modifies some of the content in the 2006 edition; he expounds upon new interpretations of scripture that will amaze and excite even the most ardent Christians and prepares the reader for the expansion of theme he will explore in the new title. Ron Richardson is convinced that God is orchestrating the timeliness and uniqueness of his vision; the substantial readership audience that exists for his platform, and his ability to captivate that audience by pursuing various marketing platform strategies. To be sure, the Association of American Publishers showed a year-to-date increase in the religion category of 2.9% in 2010. That survey does not include book club sales, organization sales, and other non-traditional distribution efforts not generally counted. Richardson sees his typical reader as a combination of the average worshiper seeking a more intimate relationship with his God; the professional and student scholar who are committed to improving their understanding of the Holy scriptures and the unsaved among mankind who seek an introduction to their Creator God and His unconditional love.

Book Description
Sergiej S. Slavinski presents the first major study of Francis Cheynell's 1650 treatise on the doctrine of the Trinity. Situating Cheynell in his historical context, Slavinski examines Cheynell's role in the Trinitarian controversies of the Civil War and Interregnum England. The book demonstrates the interplay between polemic and piety in a work of Reformed scholasticism, showcasing how Cheynell’s eclectic theological method in reading Scripture reinforced his conviction of the Trinitarian persons as one true God. Slavinski argues that Cheynell’s polemical-practical Trinitarianism has the idea of Trinitarian oneness as infinite simplicity at its core.
