\"\"\u00a0Ancient faith for the church’s future<\/a> \/ edited by\u00a0Mark Husbands\u00a0and Jeffrey P. Greenman.\u00a0\u00a0Husbands and Greenman bring together select essays\u00a0 which demonstrate the vitality and significance of the early church for contemporary Christian witness and practice.\u00a0\u00a0Fresh and forward-looking, this book leads the way toward a deeply rooted church that points beyond contemporary evangelical accommodation to civil religion, privatism and enlightenment methodologies toward its true vocation to bear vital witness to God’s present and coming kingdom.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The beauty of God : theology and the arts<\/a> \/ edited by Daniel J. Treier,\u00a0Mark\u00a0Husbands\u00a0and Roger Lundin.\u00a0These essays illuminate for us the Christian significance of the visual arts, music and literature, as well as sounding forth the theological meaning and place of the arts in a fallen world–fallen, yet redeemed by Christ. Here is a veritable feast for pastors, artists, theologians and students eager to consider the profound but not necessarily obvious connection between Christianity and the arts.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Calvin’s\u00a0Theology\u00a0and\u00a0Its\u00a0Reception\u00a0: Disputes, Developments, and New Possibilities\u00a0\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0\/Hesselink, I. John and\u00a0Billings, J. Todd. An essential collection of essays for the study of John Calvin’s theology. Husbands is among the leading Calvin scholars\u00a0 who examine the early and late reception-history of Calvin’s fundamental teachings, including reflections on the contemporary possibilities and limitations in developing Calvin’s thought.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The community of the Word : toward an evangelical ecclesiology<\/a>\/\u00a0Mark\u00a0Husbands\u00a0and Daniel J. Treier, editors.\u00a0In this volume, editors Husbands and Treier bring together thirteen scholars and teachers to explore the history of evangelical ecclesiology and the continuing discussion regarding the nature of the church, the question of sacraments, the relation of church to society, and the church’s moral character and missional witness.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Justification : what’s at stake in the current debates<\/a> \/ edited by\u00a0Mark\u00a0Husbands\u00a0and Daniel J. Treier.\u00a0\u00a0Husbands and\u00a0 Treier bring together notable evangelical scholars and teachers to address from biblical, historical, theological and ecumenical perspectives key questions that prevent complete unity between Roman Catholic and Protestant branches of the church and raise tensions even among Protestant denominations. Witnessing to certain signs of hope, these essays also acknowledge points of caution. But for every reader who is looking for guidance and orientation to this doctrine and current discussion, this book provides a wealth of charitable yet incisive insight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Women, ministry and the Gospel : exploring new paradigms<\/a> \/ edited by\u00a0Mark\u00a0Husbands\u00a0and Timothy Larsen.\u00a0The essays explore the current issue of women in ministry from several perspectives.<\/p>\n
