“Martin Albl has written a very helpful text for teachers of fundamental theology or introduction to theology courses. Reason, Faith, and Tradition is accessible and also scholarly, thoughtful, and thought-provoking. Apparent throughout is Dr. Albl’s conviction that faith and reason are not only compatible but necessary for sound intellectual development. Undergrads and entry level grad students alike will learn much from Albl’s post-critical theology.”

“I particularly liked the book by Mark Allman Who would Jesus Kill? I found that it does an excellent job of presenting the basics of just war and pacifism while at the same time making the subject currently relevant by tackling issues such as holy war and Muslim perspectives on war. I think that the discussion questions it provides would be a tremendous help in sparking classroom conversations and debates.”

"Green Discipleship will be a wonderful textbook for teachers and students. Faculty will find that the twenty-one essays cover a wide range of topics for a course on theology and the environment. Undergraduate students will find the essays written in a style that is accessible and with content that is informative. Helpful features that include review and reflection questions, an extensive glossary of terms, a bibliography, and an essay on library research make this volume a first-rate educational resource."

"This text is an excellent introduction to undergraduate theology. The scholars chosen for each section understand that most undergrads have never studied theology and are entering a new realm of knowledge. The material is thorough but written in language that the novice can readily understand. The reference librarian sections of each chapter are invaluable. If you need one text for an introductory course, this is the one."

"Among study Bibles, the Anselm Academic Study Bible stands out for its excellent translation and notes (New American Bible Revised Edition), fresh introductions to the biblical books, and articles on important and neglected topics such as the social context of the Bible, the Christian Bible and Jews, and contextual and transformative interpretation. Expertly edited and amply illustrated, the volume is a most welcome resource for students and interested adults.

"This book engages college students on many levels. It explores philosophical and theological principles in Christian ethics and applies them to topics such as the economy, the death penalty, war and military activity, medical issues, and sexual ethics. The principles of Catholic Social Teaching provide a solid foundation for each topic. This well-researched and well-written book challenges students to grapple with the Catholic Church’s perspective and their own stances."

"The introductory nature of this book would be espeically useful where its combination of foundational theology and theology of marriage could be the course focus. It is a foil for doing fundamental theology with strong material on marriage."

"Karen Elliott has given us a clear, concise, and biblical look at Paul and his views on women. Using strong biblical and scholarly sources, Elliott demonstrates that Paul supported women in governing positions in the Church, held them as equals in the proclamation of the Good News, and submitted to women himself. This important book provides the logic and the biblical support to understand Paul as a missionary in a patriarchal society who none-the-less believed the work of the Church is not gender specific."

“Whether one is a novice in the study of Sacred Scripture and especially the Gospels or wishes to review this study with up to date references Jesus in the Gospels and Acts is a good place to start. Author Daniel J. Scholz has made the task enjoyable with an easy style.”
