“Kristy Woodson Harvey, Nancy Thayer, and Patti Callahan Henry fans should take note.” –Booklist

Systematic Theology: Mar 15/26

Systematic Theology (Volume 1)
Author(s): Paul Tillich
Publisher: The University of Chicago Press
Price: $3.99       (Limited Time Only)

“A great voyage of discovery into a rich and deep, and inclusive…vision and understanding of human life in the presence of the mystery of God.” — H. Richard Niebuhr, author of Christ and Culture

This is the first part of Paul Tillich’s three-volume Systematic Theology, one of the most profound statements of the Christian message ever composed and the summation and definitive presentation of the theology of the most influential and creative American theologian of the twentieth century.
In this path-breaking volume Tillich presents the basic method and statement of his system—his famous “correlation” of man’s deepest questions with theological answers. Here the focus is on the concepts of being and reason. Tillich shows how the quest for revelation is integral to reason itself. In the same way a description of the inner tensions of being leads to the recognition that the quest for God is implied in finite being.
Here also Tillich defines his thought in relation to philosophy and the Bible and sets forth his famous doctrine of God as the “Ground of Being.” Thus God is understood not as a being existing beside other beings, but as being-itself or the power of being in everything. God cannot be made into an object; religious knowledge is, therefore, necessarily symbolic.

“Beyond doubt the richest, most suggestive, and most challenging philosophical theology our day has produced.” –John Herman Randall Jr., author of The Making of the Modern Mind

Systematic Theology (Volume 2)
Author(s): Paul Tillich
Publisher: The University of Chicago Press
Price: $3.99       (Limited Time Only)

The second volume of the eminent Christian philosopher’s magnum opus, in which he explores humanity’s quest for Christ.
Paul Tillich’s Systemic Philosophy is the most comprehensive and definitive presentation of his groundbreaking theological message: his “method of correlation”, which finds the answers to humanity’s most urgent existential dilemmas in the principles of Christian revelation. In volume two of this three-volume work, Tillich comes to grips with the central idea of his system—the doctrine of the Christ.
Here, Tillich describes the human predicament as the state of “estrangement” from ourselves, from our world, and from the divine Ground of Being. This situation drives us to the quest for a new state of things, in which reconciliation and reunion conquer estrangement. This is the quest for the Christ.

Saving Leonardo: A Call to Resist the Secular Assault on Mind, Morals, and Meaning

Author(s): Nancy Pearcey
Publisher: B&H Books
Price: $4.99       (Mar 16 only)

Is secularism a positive force in the modern world? Or does it lead to fragmentation and disintegration? In Saving Leonardo, best-selling award-winning author Nancy Pearcey (Total Truth, coauthor How Now Shall We Live?) makes a compelling case that secularism is destructive and dehumanizing.

Pearcey depicts the revolutionary thinkers and artists, the ideas and events, leading step by step to the unleashing of secular worldviews that undermine human dignity and liberty. She crafts a fresh approach that exposes the real-world impact of ideas in philosophy, science, art, literature, and film–voices that surround us in the classroom, in the movie theater, and in our living rooms.
