Parenting
| With billions of dollars spent annually to educate children and youth, education is at the forefront of the news today. John D. Roth makes the case for a church-related alternative to the public school system-one shaped by the distinctive emphases of the Anabaptist-Mennonite tradition. Teaching That Transforms outlines a pedagogy that is consciously attentive to God's presence in the world, and that cultivates habits of worship, nurtures living traditions, and promotes caring and compassionate relationships. Roth offers an open, lively, vigorous, and honest conversation about the nature of our Christian witness to the world and about the future of the church.

Worship
| John D. Roth examines the traditions of Anabaptist-Mennonite worship. These practices, he argues, are part of an essential unity that transforms and renews the people of God and calls them to lives of integrity that are embodied with discipleship and mission. Roth reflects on distinctive Mennonite practices such as baptism, communion, foot washing, and common meals. | | | | Stories: How Mennonites Came to Be | View shopping basket | | by John D. Roth | |

Faith
| This short, engaging book gives a brief account of what
Mennonites believe. From the beginnings of the Anabaptist (or
Mennonite) movement in the 16th century, to biblical interpretation,
baptism, understandings of the church, ethics, and the complex question
of denominationalism, John Roth provides a solid framework for on-going
conversations about faithful discipleship in the Mennonite church
today. Copyright 2005 Herald Press. | | | | Engaging Anabaptism: Conversations with a Radical Tradition | View shopping basket | | by John D. Roth, editor | |

Theology
| After several centuries of indifference, misrepresentation, and
ridule, the Anabaptist tradition has come to enjoy new levels of
attention and respect from current leading theologians and ethicists.
Anabaptist-Mennonite theological themes, like the Old Order Amish, are
almost chic-the inspiration for numerous books, scholarly conferences,
and high-minded debate. Here, thirteen Protestant and Catholic
scholars reflect on how their understandings of the Christian faith
have been shaped by their encounter with the Anabaptist-Mennonite
tradition. Written in an engaging, autobiographical style, the
essays balance commendations with incisive critique. This collection
includes essays by Richard Mouw, Nancey Murphy, Samuel Escobar, Stanley
Hauerwas, James W. McClendon, Stuart Murray, and Richard B. Hays.

| Migrant Muses is a collection of critical essays and book reviews by writers and
scholars examining the present state of U.S. Mennonite literature. Many of the selections stem
from presentations given at the first-ever "Mennonite/s Writing in the U.S." conference at Goshen
College in 1997. Featuring an introductory essay by the distinguished late U.S. poet Denise
Levertov, the volume presents discussions of the works of Mennonite poets and novelists,
including Jeff Gundy, Jean Janzen, Julia Kasdorf, Janet Kauffman, Rudy Wiebe and Dallas
Wiebe. It also includes reflections on such topics as the artist and the community, Mennonite literary
"archetypes," faith and ethnicity, and women in Mennonite literature. Copyright 1998. | | | | Choosing Against War: A Christian View | View shopping basket | | by John D. Roth | |

Violence
| How might Christians look on the world differently if they-actually!-believed that God's love was indeed stronger than our fears?
In fresh, confessional language, Roth shares his convictions about
Christian pacifism, inviting others to consider this possibility, all
the while humbly admitting the difficulties. What would happen if
Christians assumed that their allegiance to God, their identity with
Christ, and their commitment to the church would inevitably lead them
to respond to the world's pain differently because of their faith? In
the face of violence, are there any options open to the Christian
believer other than the "default" impulse toward patriotic unity and a
steely determination to exact "an eye for an eye"? A must-read for
anyone concerned about the endless cycles of wars and violence, and the
possibility that God's love is stronger than our society's current
answers. Copyright 2002. | |
