Synopsis

In "The Celtic Christianity of Cornwall: Divers Sketches and Studies," Thomas Taylor embarks on a meticulous exploration of the unique tapestry of Celtic Christianity as it flourished in Cornwall. With a blend of historical inquiry and spiritual reflection, Taylor delves into the region's ecclesiastical heritage, tracing the influences and practices that distinguish it from mainstream Christian traditions. His literary style is both erudite and accessible, reflecting his deep reverence for the subject matter, while rich descriptions and vivid anecdotes provide readers with a profound sense of place and culture. The book situates itself within the broader context of Celtic studies, contributing significantly to the understanding of regional spirituality and identity during a time of cultural exchange and transformation. Thomas Taylor was a prominent figure of the 19th century, serving not only as an author but also as a dedicated scholar of Celtic languages and traditions. His passion for Cornwall's rich cultural and religious history likely stemmed from his own Cornish heritage, which equipped him with a personal connection to the landscape and lore that he so eloquently portrays. Through extensive research and a genuine respect for indigenous practices, Taylor weaves a narrative that honors the life and legacy of Cornwall's Celtic heritage. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the intersections of history, spirituality, and local identity. Whether you are an academic seeking to deepen your understanding of Celtic Christianity or a casual reader captivated by regional folklore, Taylor's insightful sketches and studies offer a treasure trove of wisdom and discovery. The exploration of Cornwall's unique contributions to the broader tapestry of Celtic civilization makes this work an essential read for enthusiasts of religious and cultural studies alike.

    This contemporary classic by renowned scholar Gordon Fee explores the Spirit's significant role in Pauline life and thought. 
     
     
     
    After Fee published his magisterial God's Empowering Presence, he was asked to write a more accessible volume that would articulate Paul's priorities for experiencing the life of the Spirit in the church. Fee's bestselling introduction to Paul and the Spirit, Paul, the Spirit, and the People of God, went on to sell over 70,000 copies. This book by one of the greatest evangelical and Pentecostal New Testament interpreters of our time argues that the presence of the Spirit is, for Paul and for us, the crucial matter for the Christian life. 
     
     
     
    This edition features new study questions and a foreword by Dean Pinter, who commends the book to a new generation of readers.

    Lessons from the legacy of beloved Prof Howard Hendricks   Over the span of four years, journalist Maina Mwaura noticed an intriguing pattern while interviewing hundreds of prominent leaders: many of them were deeply shaped by longtime Dallas Theological Seminary professor Howard Hendricks. The Influential Mentor tells the story of Hendricks’ life while capturing his visionary character and leadership legacy. Hendricks, like all of us, struggled. He overcame a difficult childhood and battled depression. Parenting was a challenge. Yet he got up every week for sixty years to teach and mentor with incredible zeal and humility. This book combines the reality of struggle with the audacity of faith to empower others to lead in a manner worthy of Jesus Christ and His gospel.   But at its heart, this is a book about more than Howard Hendricks. It’s about well-tested methods that have shaped a movement—methods that will help today’s leaders weather cultural storms and be more effective. In a time where division seems the norm, renowned “Prof” Hendricks imparts a unifying influence. Mwaura shares interviews with Tony Evans, Robert Jeffress, Dennis and Barbara Rainey, Gene Getz, Andy Stanley, Jennie Allen, and more—each testifying to a life of spiritual, emotional, and physical perseverance.   As Christians apply the lessons of Prof Hendricks’ life, they too will be encouraged and strengthened to be a person of great influence for the cause of Christ! The Influential Mentor highlights the leadership success of a contemporary giant of the faith, while inspiring Christians toward the same faithful endeavor.
