Regional concerns-climate change, conquest, migration,
displacement, resettlement, asylum, discipleship, and
others-challenge authors currently situated in Oceania to reflect
on the practices of biblical interpretation and to consequently
reread biblical texts with fluid understandings of borders and
belonging(s).
The similarities and difference of arrangement and order of
episodes in the gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke have always been
one of the major critera for resolving the Synoptic Problem. How
important, and how reliable are arguments based on such
considerations, and where might they lead? Here Neville reviews
these issues in detail, explaining the significance of his
conclusions for understanding the literary relationships among the
three Synoptics gospels, and particularly for the competing
theories of Markan priority (the standard two-source hypothesis)
and Markan posteriority (the Griesbach hypothesis).
Following on from the success of Promoting Positive Parenting,
David Neville, Dick Beak and Liz King have now written this book
which looks at the particular problems and challenges associated
with working with parents of teenagers. The Centre for Fun and
Families (from which the authors hail) is a national voluntary
organization which was established in 1990. Its objective is to
empower parents who are experiencing behaviour and communication
difficulties with their children and young people, through the use
of group work programmes. This book shares with readers the
theoretical ideas that underpin the work of the Centre and provides
a practical guide of how to undertake such a programme, thereby
enabling the reader to react sensitively and productively to
unforeseen circumstances which are inevitable when running groups.
Professionals coming to these methods for the first time can work
through the text safe in the knowledge that these are tried and
tested ways of working, which are known to be effective. At a time
when attention is focused on the importance of parenting and the
way in which children are brought up and guided into adulthood, no
practitioner working in this field should ignore the message within
these covers.

Grimsrud asks what Christian theology would be like if it
consistently took Jesus' central command to love God and neighbor
as the most important consideration. This is why Brenda Martin
Hurst, Pastor, Fraser Mennonite Church, says that "Grimsrud's
entire theology hinges on these love commands on which Jesus said
all the law and the prophets hang." Keith Graber Miller, Goshen
College, comments that "Nearly 40 years later, we have another
theological extension of John Howard Yoder's Politics of Jesus--an
expansive, accessible, provocative, practical, and practice-able
theology rooted in the life and teachings of Jesus." Christian
Early, Eastern Mennonite University, observes that "Grimsrud
recaptures a vision for theology that begins and ends with Jesus,
and in so doing manages to call back the discipline from its
metaphysical holiday to its home in the life of the messianic
community." David Neville, School of Theology, Charles Sturt
University, Australia, sees Grimsrud as returning "again and again
to Jesus' command to love both God and neighbor as the tuning fork
for setting theological convictions in their proper key."
