A superbly entertaining overview of the Church of England over the last fifty years

"Sabbath Rest" considers the theological foundations of Christian sabbath-keeping, in first and second temple Judaism, New Testament Christianity and in the early church.

The first textbook to engage with the crossover between the Bible and literature, covering all the key methods of literary criticism and presenting a truly inter-disciplinary approach.

Intended for those studying Christian ethics at upper undergraduate level, this book offers a discussion of Christian moral thought in a variety of key areas. It begins by asking 'What is Theological Ethics?' and proceeds to introducing different approaches to Ethics, Ethics in the Catholic and Protestant traditions and subjects.

A commentary, like each in the series, designed to serve readers by demonstrating the continuing intellectual and practical viability of theological interpretation of the Bible.

Resisting the urge to instruct with a more polemical voice, the SCM Studyguide to Church Leadership will encourage ordinands and trainee church leaders to reassess modern pressures and priorities and to re-orient creatively around the callings, giftings, and approaches that are suitable to Christ and particular to the Church.

An accessible, stimulating and interactive guide-book to the emergence of Christian identity, with particular attention to the earliest form of the Christian thought and doctrine.
