 | The Secular Mind by Robert Coles Coles discusses how, over two centuries, reason has replaced religion and how that change has effected men and women and their faith. He refers to a range of thinkers and writers--most of whom he has written on before--including Freud, Erikson, Kierkegaard, William Carlos Williams and Walker Percy. Looking to the future, he envisions the possibility of a world dominated by science, with the category of the sacred missing.

 | A Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew by Craig Keener This excellent commentary on Matthew offers a unique interpretive approach that focuses on the socio-historical context of the Gospel and the nature of Matthew's exhortation to his first-century Christian audience. By merging a careful study of Matthew's Gospel in relation to the social context of the ancient Mediterranean world with a detailed look at what we know of first-century Jewish-Christian relations, Craig Keener uncovers significant insights into the Gospel not found in any other Matthew commentary. In addition, Keener's commentary is a useful discipleship manual for the church. His unique approach recaptures the full shock effect of Jesus' teachings in their original context and allows Matthew to make his point with greater narrative artistry. Keener also brings home the total impact of Matthew's message, including its clear portrait of Jesus and its call for discipleship, both to the Gospel's ancient readers and to believers today.
