C. K. Barrett's Commentary on the Greek text of the Gospel of John has long been recognized as a major contribution to theological studies and has become the standard work in the field.
Since its first publication, Asking the Fathers has been acclaimed as a classic introduction to the spiritual life in the Christian tradition. Now reissued as an SPCK Classic.
With his usual consummate clarity of thought and style, Michael Ramsey sets out to establish what the Spirit meant in the experience and the language of the early Christians. 'There are none from whom we can learn more about a theme so intimately linked with the coming of Jesus Christ.'
The last couple of years have not been easy. Everyone has been affected in some way by the credit crunch and we need to reorient ourselves. It's a comfort for Christians to remember that real life and fulfilment are to be found in relationships - in loving God and loving our neighbour. But in practice it's difficult not to be influenced by consumerism and individualism. How do we guard against this? How can we apply our faith in practical ways? What disciplines can we put in place to help us worship God in every area of our lives? These are the questions that Free to Love aims to answer. Well researched, inspiring, practical and engaging, it will prove of much value to Christians wishing to live in a more deeply considered way.
An extended conversation with God that ranges from complaint to joy, anger to love. Drawing upon a lifetime of such dialogues, Bill Countryman grapples with the reality of evil and loss, as well as hope and the possibility of fulfilment. The author's lyrical style owes much to the poetry of the Psalms, Job and the Song of Solomon.

Meister Eckhart, the fourteenth-century German mystic and theologian, is one of the most enigmatic and controversial figures in the history of the Church.

The text of the New Testament, drawn from the New Testament for Everyone series, fully integrated to smooth joins between sections and provide a level of internal consistency, for example in how individual Greek terms are rendered. It also represents Tom Wright's view of the New Testament, something that has helped to shape his theology.
A uniquely wide-ranging selection of prayers and readings drawn from all the major world religions and from over 25 nations.
An Almighty Passion celebrates the God who walks with us in our communities, forever reaching out with his all-embracing love. He is not, as this beautifully narrated collection of real-life stories demonstrates, a God who can easily be tied to a formula. Often we glimpse his glory where we least expect to see it: in the seemingly commonplace events of an ordinary Cambridge housing estate; on the freezing altiplano of Bolivia; in the blistering, dusty heat of the Argentine Chaco. Skilfully but simply, Alan Hargrave relates the great doctrines of the Church - Trinity, Incarnation, Passion, Resurrection - to the pain and the joy, the mundane and the surprising, the dull and the dramatic of the everyday life in which God Incarnate is to be found.
This is a short book focussing on the relationship between theology and prayer, and their effects on a Christian's life. It sets the reader tasks of self-examination and reflection in the light of Christian teaching.
