		<description><![CDATA[From the get-go one can appreciate the thoughtfulness put into organizing such a large work. Barth begins with definitions and pointed summaries of what follows. He defines dogmatics as, &#8220;the scientific self-examination of the Christian church with respect to the content of its distinctive talk about God&#8221; (3).  As with all starting points and definitions, [...]]]></description>

R. Daniel Kirk over at Storied Theology (@jrdkirk).  I hope to post [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is said that Karl Barth is the most important theologian of the 20th century, yet the size—and the cost!—of his work means most people haven&#8217;t actually read him thoroughly.  So we rely on others interpretations, or short excerpts, to make up our minds about Barth.  Well, not anymore!  Christianbook has released a new pre-order [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I Told Me So is a read that I recommend if you&#8217;re ready to quite possibly become undone.  It&#8217;s a book about how self-deception works in our personal lives, namely that we make ourselves believe certain things that aren&#8217;t necessarily true.  Most of the time it&#8217;s to cover up our sin and, if I understood [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Written by N.T. Wright, the Last Word: Scripture and the Authority of God—Getting Beyond the Bible Wars is a brief sketch of a theology of the Bible and a proper hermeneutic for engaging the text, both for the church and scholarship.  First Wright starts by reclaiming God&#8217;s authority in the Spirit through Scripture; the Bible [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Written by Bruce W. Longenecker with Ben Witherington III, this work is a helpful window into 1st century mediterranean life and epistolary conventions.  It&#8217;s a fictitious (though historically realistic) exchange of letters between Luke the biblical author and Antipas, a Roman nobleman.  For those who really enjoy the works of Francine Rivers or other authors [...]]]></description>
