Description
The doctrine of the Trinity has recently been rescued from relative obscurity in Christian theology, but its profound implications have not yet been fully realised. In These Three are One, David Cunningham articulates a Trinitarian perspective that challenges a wide range of modern assumptions about God and the created order.
Cunningham seeks to rehabilitate the Augustinian tradition of locating the "triune marks" left upon the world by its Creator. He explores ancient rhetoric, communication theory, and literature - as well as more traditional theological sources - in order to illuminate not only the Christian doctrine of God, but also its radical critique of contemporary culture.
According to Cunningham, Trinitarian theology challenges many of our most cherished practices, including our craving for violence, our neglect of children, and our misguided quest for homogeneity. His book confounds the popular notion that the doctrine of the Trinity is esoteric and irrelevant; on the contrary, it shows it to be at the very heart of Christian life and thought.

Powers and Submissions
In this book, Sarah Coakley confronts a central paradox of theological feminism—what she terms 'the paradox of power and vulnerability'. Whilst gender theory has in recent years given an increasingly nuanced account of the worldly 'powers' that serve to stifle human flourishing, feminist theology has been loath to acknowledge that form of surrender to divine 'power' which can alone sustain...Paperback$9999Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 3-4 weeks -
After Writing
After Writing provides a significant contribution to the growing genre of works that challenges modern and postmodern accounts of Christianity. Catherine Pickstock shows how Platonic philosophy did not assume a primacy of metaphysical presence, as had previously been thought, but rather a primacy of liturgical theory and practice. The author also provides a significant rethinking of Christian understandings of language,...Paperback$10499Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 3-4 weeks -
