As we turn the page next week, I think it appropriate to review the year’s literature in the broad field of Stone-Campbell studies. Though the publishers seem to have scaled back the volume of new titles, several significant studies came our way this year.

The success of the column—not only is it a local favorite, many out-of-towners regularly read it online—evinces Nashville’s locals, natives and friends [...]
Book Review: Hebrews: Ancient Encouragement for Believers Today
Posted in Bible Study, biblical studies, book reviews, books, Churches of Christ, Hebrews, mac-writing, teaching, theology on 29 March 2009 | 7 Comments »
In short, I highly recommend Edward Fudge’s new commentary on Hebrews. I have found it intellectually rigorous, exegetically responsible, theologically rich and pastorally sensitive. I review this book from the perspective of one who has taught Hebrews on numerous occasions in both academic and congregational settings. In my own ministry I have attempted to do what Fudge proposes to [...]

Last week I quickly surveyed a few books published in 2009 which I think merit attention for their contribution to Stone-Campbell studies. I neglected to include a milestone publication in Biblical studies. About this time last year ACU Press issued The Transforming Word, a one-volume commentary on the Bible. It is a landmark achievement in [...]
