聖書的激盪 : 在漢語語境中使用聖經 / 林子淳編.
香港 : 道風書社, 2023.

封底:

本書提供的是普世的宣教神學和東西交流史的一個個案。它的時間跨度很長,從七世紀的景教至今有一千三百多年;漢語基督宗教的來源也是很多元的;接收方的文化也是十分多元多變,包括儒家、佛道和民間宗教。

 

不同時代的漢語使用者在援引和解讀聖經時都出現相似的困惑:一方面他們欣悅新信仰帶來既有傳統中未有的概念;但另一方面不可能完全脫離本有的文化脈胳。如何達致有效接收?這既是釋經議題,也關涉本土神學與信仰踐行。漢語神學如何從中創意地建構出來是經久不衰的命題。

詩歌智慧書 / 謝挺著.
香港 : 中國基督教播道會文字部, 2023

封底:

「謝挺博士是學有專精的舊約學者,她在本書與中西學者切磋交流,提出最新的研究成果,以及值得討論的神學主題和問題。謝博士對經文的詮釋不僅根據經卷脈絡,還加上靈性的反思,内容深入淺出,實屬難能可貴。特別欣賞她對一些詩篇的示範解釋。」--邵晨光博士 菲律賓聖經神學院榮譽院長

 

「可用四句話來形容謝挺博士的新作:由廣入深、行文流暢、一目瞭然、滿有洞見。謝博士好像聖經的導遊,帶領讀者從森林外圍來到每棵樹下:在探討每卷書時,都先從背景簡介、中心主題、經文脈絡和大綱開始,然後才分析經文,最後更適切地應用到讀者的生活。」--陳錦友博士 恩福神學院和北美中華福音神學院客座講師

 

「謝挺博士擅長把舊約原文與教會生活的關聯作適切的解說。在這本書,謝挺博士巧妙地梳理詩歌慧書與其他舊約經卷的互動關係。本書反映了新舊轉接的研究動態,也展現了舊約教誨的傳承。從此,筆者的教學又多了一本內涵豐富的中文必讀書!」--吳慧芬博士 馬來西亞神學院舊約講師

Lights a lovely mile : collected sermons of the church year / Eugene H. Peterson.
Colorado Springs : WaterBrook, 2023

Back Cover :

Long before his iconic paraphrased Bible translation, The Message, Eugene H. Peterson (1932–2018) faithfully preached for decades to the small congregation of Christ Our King Presbyterian Church in Bel Air, Maryland.

As the seasons passed, along with the accompanying fasts and feasts, Peterson faithfully revealed ways to cultivate a robust, authentic life of faith, intimacy, obedience, and joy.

Now you can gain new insights into Peterson’s preaching and pastoral life through this collection of his most compelling yet never-before-published sermons.

Following the calendar of the church year, from the darkness of Advent to the light of Epiphany, the wilderness of Lent to the celebration of Easter, and the fire of Pentecost to the everyday glory of ordinary time, these remarkable sermons point to the eternity beyond our experience of time.

With his trademark wit and wisdom, Peterson shows how to pursue a “long obedience in the same direction” through all the seasons, colors, and rhythms of our lives.

Modern mystics : an introduction / by Bernard McGinn.
New York : Herder & Herder Book, 2023

Mysticism is not just a phenomenon of the past, but has been alive and flourishing in Chistianity, Judaism, and Islam over the past century, as well as in many of the other religious traditions. Best understood as a search for the transforming presence of God, the mystical tradition has necessarily undergone changes and developments as it has confronted modernity and its frequently anti-religious stance. Making use of ten exemplary mystics of the 20th century, including Catholic, Protestants, and Jews, this book argues for the continued importance of mysticism in the modern world and studies its ongoing transformations.
