  • Hidden Holiness

    Unwrapping the Gift of God’s Presence

    by David M. Crump ...

Many may be surprised to learn that biblical holiness is not primarily about morality or personal behavior. Divine holiness, including holy behavior, both God's and ours, is rooted in the fact that God is Wholly Other, distinct from any and all created things. God is not holy because he never does ...

Throughout the ensuing service, you see them--and hear them. The presence of children in public worship is not only striking, but also increasingly strange in modern American church life. In fact, the idea of your ... Read more

    by Walter Brueggemann ...
    The Christian practice of hymn singing, says renowned biblical scholar Walter Brueggemann, is a countercultural act. It marks the Christian community as different from an unforgiving and often ungrateful culture. It is also, he adds, an "absurd enterprise in the midst of the hyper-busy, market-driven society that surrounds us. In this helpful and engaging volume, Brueggemann discusses both why we ...
