Additional New Releases from Wipf & Stock an Imprint of Wipf and Stock Publishers Tracking God An Ecumenical Fundamental Theology Ivana Noble “Here is theology as it should be today: ecumenical yet appreciative of particular traditions; critical yet rooted in professed belief; of the Church, but with eye and ear to the spiritual questions of a pluralistic world. Comprehensive in scope, the book also attends to nuances of well-selected sources spanning two millennia. Professor Noble, like Matthew’s scribe, brings out ‘what is new and what is old.’ Both theological students and seasoned scholars will find this a treasure.” —William H. Petersen, Emeritus Dean & Professor of Bexley Hall Seminary Ivana Noble is an associate professor of Ecumenical Theology at the Protestant Theological Faculty of Charles University, Prague and is Senior Research Fellow at the International Baptist Seminary in Prague. She is the author of Accounts of Hope (2001) and Theological Interpretation of Culture in a Post-Communist Context (2010). • Read Complete Description Dominion over Wildlife? An Environmental Theology of Human-Wildlife Relations Stephen M. Vantassel “Using both Old and New Testament references, Stephen Vantassel very effectively defends trapping, hunting, fishing, and all animal use from the claims of the Christian Animal Rights movement . . . This book is essential reading for Christians and non-Christians alike. Not only does it clarify the issue of animal use, it allows people to use the Bible to defend themselves from attacks by animal rights activists. And it enlarges our awareness of our relationship with the physical world. Vantassel has given us the gift of increasing our consciousness, thereby expanding our ability to worship God.” —Bob Noonan, Editor, Wildlife Control Technology Stephen M. Vantassel is Project Coordinator for Wildlife Damage Management at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. In addition to his numerous articles authored on the subject on the of humanity’s relationship to wildlife, he is the author of The Wildlife Removal Handbook, rev. ed., and The Wildlife Damage Inspection Handbook, rev. ed. He presently lives with his wife, Donna, in Lincoln, Nebraska. • Read Complete Description Pilgrims on the Silk Road A Muslim-Christian Encounter in Khiva Walter R. Ratliff “Walter Ratliff’s history of the Mennonite Great Trek to Central Asia offers a new angle of vision upon one of the most remarkable events of Mennonite history. Pilgrims on the Silk Road puts the Great Trek into the context of nineteenth-century imperial rivalry and of the Russian conquest of Khiva. The author tells tales of Muslim-Christian cooperation that resonate with meaning in our twenty-first century of religious polarization. Ratliff’s perspective is revisionist without being contentious. I hope this book will find a wide readership.” —James Juhnke, Bethel College, Emeritus Walter Ratliff is a journalist and religion scholar from Washington, DC. He holds degrees from Georgetown University, Wheaton College, and the University of New Mexico. He is the producer/director of the documentary “Through the Desert Goes Our Journey” (2008). • Read Complete Description My Brother’s Keeper Essays in Honor of Ellis R. Brotzman Edited by Thomas J. Marinello and H. H. Drake Williams “What a sparkling collection of essays that demonstrates scholarship in the service of the church at its best. They are competent, clear, and significant. Read with care. Several of these essays pack a punch. We may not always agree with them, but we will always be provoked by them to question our own thinking and align our own practice more exactly with the gospel.” —Derek Tidball, former principal of the London School of Theology. Thomas J. Marinello is Associate Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology, and the Director of Tyndale By Extension at Tyndale Theological Seminary, Badhoevedorp, the Netherlands.
