The works of J.RR. Tolkien have not only redefined a genre of
literature and had a far-reaching impact on culture in the late
twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, but his name has joined
the ranks of authors such as Shakespeare, Milton, Dostoevsky,
Donne, and Dickens—authors who make us think differently about
the world, including the creator of the world and the meaning of
life. In Theology and Tolkien: Practical Theology, an international
group of scholars consider what Tolkien’s works (and Jackson’s
interpretations) can teach us about living out our theology in the
world. From essays on Tolkien’s insights into community, what we
can learn about our spiritual senses from encounters with the
Nazgûl, the pastoral wisdom of Treebeard, and the theological
value of food—including second breakfasts—we invite you to
journey with us through Middle-earth as we engage the applicability
of Tolkien’s works for theology and our world.
The Bible contains a sweeping story, but it's all too easy to
lose sight of the forest for the trees. Whether it's the dimensions
of Noah's ark or the regulations for sacrifices in the temple,
sometimes we miss the big picture when sifting through all the
important details contained in Scripture. Helping readers discover
the overarching narrative that binds the Bible together, this book
highlights 16 key verses that stand as "turning points" in the
biblical story line, enabling us to see God's incredible plan to
redeem his people from Genesis to Revelation. Whether it's the
creation of humanity, the establishment of the covenants, or the
coming of the Messiah, this book will help Christians see how God's
Word tells a single story about his sovereignty, glory, and
grace.
