How can Paul rejoice when hes got nothing to rejoice about? How can he talk about joy when hes in prison?

Paul highlights four reasons why joy fills his heart: because of the Gospel partnership he shares with his friends in Philippi; because of the unity that they experience in Christ; because of their confidence in Jesus; and because God has given them peace beyond understanding. These themes correspond with the four chapters of the letter, and form the organizing principle of this book.

From Patmos to Paradise: John's Vision of Heaven

John's Vision of Heaven

By Alaharasan, V. Antony J.

$14.95 01 Jan 2009 Paperback Paulist Press

Many people avoid reading the Book of Revelation. It just seems too frightening. It is filled with blaring thunder, strange beasts, mayhem and death. Indeed, Revelation describes a brutal adversary that is in utter rebellion against the good and seduces many to turn from the truth and embrace the darkness. But Fr. Antony Alaharasan shows that the book is full of love, hope, mercy and spectacular insight into the wonders of heaven. Indeed, Fr. Antony manages to convey a sense of the ecstasy that John was caught up in when he experienced the vision and gives us a hint of what God has in store for us who love him. John, the disciple whom Jesus loved, authored the fourth Gospel, two epistles and the Book of Revelation also known as the Apocalypse. Because St. John wrote Revelation from his exile on the island of Patmos, Fr. Antony visited Patmos to view first hand the cave where John was imprisoned and the magnificent monastery built ten centuries ago to honor of this great saint.

The New Testament as Literature

A Very Short Introduction

By Keefer, Kyle

$11.95 27 Nov 2008 Paperback Oxford University Press

Looking at the New Testament through the lens of literary study, Kyle Keefer offers an engrossing exploration of this revered religious text as a work of literature but also keeps in focus its theological ramifications. Unique among books that examine the Bible as literature, this brilliantly compact introduction offers an intriguing double-edged look at this universal text - a religiously informed analysis using a literary framework - plot, character, narrative arc, genre - to illuminate the language, structure, and crafting of this venerable text. The book explores the major sections of the New Testament - the gospels, Paul's letters, and Revelation - as individual literary documents. Keefer shows how, in such familiar stories as the parable of the Good Samaritan, a literary analysis can uncover an unexpected complexity to what seems a simple, straight-forward tale. By the conclusion of the book. Keefer has shown that whether read as a single document or as a collection of works, the New Testament presents readers with a wide variety of forms and viewpoints, and a literary exploration helps bring this richness to light.

A Commentary

By Judith M. Lieu

$49.95 01 Nov 2008 Hardback Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.

The New Testaments three letters attributed to John have always provided remarkable theological riches for the Christian tradition, including the assertion God is love. Scholars have struggled to discern if these documents are from the same person who wrote the Gospel of John and have worked to see each of these writings within their own situation and context. Each letter shows how an early Christian author responded to threats against authority by recourse to the correct teachings of the faith and a proper understanding of the relationship between Jesus and God. Together, these letters argue for a bond of unity among believers, based on fidelity to the truth of God.

Activating the Secret of the Gospels

By Michael, Todd Michael, R. Todd

$14.95 01 Sep 2008 Paperback Jeremy P. Tarcher

"The Hidden Parables" is a complete retranslation of the parables used by Jesus to illustrate critical lessons about the nature of reality. These thiry-two enigmatic parables spoken by Christ reveal a hidden layer of meaning which shows that the parables are NOT a random collection of stories, but present a "unified system of knowledge,"
The integrated system of knowledge delineates the laws of thought formsaof controlled intentionsain creating more beneficial, more miraculous circumstances in our personal lives. The information presented is clear and very practical and bears an uncanny resemblance to cutting-edge self-help and metaphysical thought.
