1 & 2 Thessalonians Belief: A Theological Commentary on the Bible Molly T. Marshall
Available Now!
In spite of their relative brevity, the letters to the Thessalonians wrestle with ideas and obligations that remain relevant today. They speak to a group of Christians struggling with thorny questions, such as: What are our obligations to one another as followers of Jesus? How do we learn to trust the truth of the gospel? Ideal for preachers, the volumes in the Belief series offer a fresh approach to all the books of the Bible.

Walking through the Valley Womanist Explorations in the Spirit of Katie Geneva Cannon Edited by Emilie M. Townes, Angela D. Sims, Stacey Floyd-Thomas, and Alison P. Gise Johnson
Available November 8
The late Katie Geneva Cannon was the founder of womanist ethics and the first African American woman ordained in the PC(USA). In this volume, leading womanist ethicists and theologians come together to continue Cannon’s work in four critical areas: justice, leadership, embodied ethics, and sacred texts.
This book shows how spirituality plays a vital role in remedying the experience of Black men feeling as though they are nothing more than a problem. By utilizing the biblical story of Ishmael’s experience in the wilderness, the book encourages Black men to embrace a life of faith that is dependent on the God who always sees, nurtures, and is in relationship with us and our gifts in the wilderness and the ghetto.
In this fortieth anniversary edition, West invites six prominent scholars—whose respective work are grounded in various aspects of black political, cultural, and theological thought—into dialogue with this work. Continuing and expanding on the revolutionary discourses that West introduced in the first published work, each new essay provides nuanced lens for thinking about movements of liberation in today’s African American communities.
