Church and Culture: An Intensive Course on Contemporary Issues
How should Christians approach such important contemporary issues as war, race, care for creation, reproductive technology, gender, work, politics? In every culture, we face social trends and moral issues today that either the Bible does not speak directly about or that make biblical teaching difficult to apply. The editors of this unique collection first offer a general approach to church engagement
with culture, and then cites articles by over forty authors, giving readers the opportunity to consider different perspectives on specific topics. The book will be useful for teachers and students of theological schools, pastors, preachers, and Christians in general who want to more effectively influence society.

Church history in plain language
DescriptionContentAuthorDetailsBruce Shelley's classic one-volume history of the church is an easy-to-read guide to the global history of Christianity. The author takes his readers from the early centuries of the church to the modern era: he tells the story of real people, acting in concrete situations and events,
and reveals the circumstances and historical context of major periods or themes in Christian history.
The characters, the settings, and the plot make this history of the church a compelling and captivating tale. It is also intellectually compelling: here you will find an overview of the most important debates and periods of the Church up to the movements of the 21st century, the history of the spread of Christianity on all continents,
and the stories of women and non-Europeans who had a significant impact on the development of Christianity but who have been little discussed in previous church history reviews. All of this makes Shelley's History of the Church a wonderful guide to church history for any Christian!Read more

Biblical theology
DescriptionContentAuthorDetailsIn the list of theological disciplines, biblical theology occupies an intermediate position between exegetics and systematic theology. It differs from systematic theology not by the fact that it is more biblical or more committed to the truths of revelation, but by the fact that the principle of ordering the content of the Bible, which it follows, is historical rather than logical.
Systematic theology considers the Bible as a single whole and strives to present its teaching in its entirety in an ordered, systematic form, while biblical theology interprets its subject from a historical point of view, trying to demonstrate the organic growth, or development, of the truths of personal revelation from the initial, personal revelation that preceded redemption, sent down in Eden, to the completion of the New Testament canon.

Gerhardus Vos — (1862-1949) was born in the Netherlands and at the age of 19 moved with his family to Grand Rapids, USA. In 1883, Vos entered the Princeton Theological Seminary, knowing, in addition to his native Dutch, German, English, French, Latin, Hebrew and Greek at the time of admission. Later, he received a doctorate from the University of Strasbourg for studies in the field of Arabic language. In 1886 Abraham Kuiper strongly invited the twenty-four-year-old Vos to take the position of professor of the Old Testament at the Free University of Amsterdam, and Herman Bavink - at the University of Kampen. Due to family circumstances, Vos stayed in the USA. In 1892, he became the first professor of biblical theology at Princeton Seminary. His best friends were other Princeton professors: Benjamin Warfield and Woodrow Wilson (the future 28th president of the United States). Warfield once said to their mutual friend Louis Berkhof: "I think he (Vos) is the best exegete of those who taught at Princeton." Gerhardus Vos is considered the founder of the discipline of biblical theology in the Reformed tradition.
