Authentic Spirituality: Moving Beyond Mere Religion

Baker Pub Group

This balanced approach to understanding the inspiration and authority of the Bible presents a "middle" position on biblical inerrancy that steers clear of pitfalls common to both ends of the spectrum. The authors defend the full authority and trustworthiness of the Bible against those who limit or dismiss its authority, yet they also reject the oversimplifications and false dichotomies found in fundamentalist appeals to verbal inerrancy in defense of the Bible's authority. They consider the whole doctrine of Scripture, including divine authority, human character, and spiritual dynamic, to resolve the biblical authority debate and provide the searching believer a discerning, functional trust in the Bible's relevance to everyday life. First published over twenty years ago--but all the more relevant for today's context--The Scripture Principle has now been revised to speak with new clarity on this perennial issue.

Histories of the Protestant Reformation focus on the protest movements of Luther, Calvin, or Zwingli. But another important Protestant group emerged at the same time. Historians refer to it as the Anabaptist movement, the Believers Church movement, or the Radical Reformation. While these radical Christians continue to exert an important influence on Western Christianity, they have often been overlooked. Dr. Callen's appraisal of the Believers Church brings this important movement into view. He explains why the Believers Church continues to be a vital force within Christianity. He compares the beliefs of the Believers Church with other branches of Protestantism and proposes an agenda for future dialogue between proponents of this "radical" form of Christianity and their cousins in the mainstream.

Radical Christianity: The Believers Church Tradition in Christianity's History and Future

Evangel Pub. House

Who is the God of the Bible? In this book Barry Callen presents the Triune God of loving grace. Callen contends that God's loving grace "is at the center of the answer" to all questions we humans have about God: about creation, divine revelation, incarnation, and any hope we have for salvation. Dr. Callen examines the nature and work of God and seeks to address the questions that many are asking today.

God as Loving Grace

Barry L. Callen

A study guide to accompany the book is available free upon request at time of order. In this book Barry Callen charts various eschatological models, identifies factors which influence one's interpretation of Scripture, and concludes that "the pressing issue of Christian 'eschatology'...is not speculating on details of God's coming future, but addressing how best to relate 'final things' and 'present responsibilities.'" This book will be useful to those with a strong scholarly interest in the subject of eschatology, while also being accessible to others who care deeply about the practical aspects of being faithful disciples of Christ in these "last days."

Faithful in the Meantime: A Biblical View of Final Things and Present Responsibilities

Here is the complex, fascinating, and often troubled story of the United States, especially as it has evolved in the last half of the twentieth century. The social, political, and religious dimensions of the nation's story are woven together, the way real life usually is. Throughout the book, reference is made to the members of one particular high school class--the 1959 class of Jackson-Milton High School in northeast Ohio. Their experiences of living through this period of U.S. history help to put a human face on this social history.
