Philemon's Problem: A Theology of Grace - Paperback

by James Tunstead Burtchaell (Author)

First Things
"The jubilee edition of this remarkable book . . . reminds us again of the scope and sensitivity of James Burtchaell's mind. . . . With this book Burtchaell offers scholars and general readers alike a decidedly robust response to the problems of Christian brotherhood."

The Bible Today
"Burtchaell writes in a provocative style, and readers will find here substantive and challenging reading."

The Covenant Companion
"A rambunctious, provocative, in-your-face kind of book. . . . It would be a wonderful book for a theologically savvy book group. There is enough here to keep you arguing into the next millennium. Philemon's Problem is difficult to summarize and hard to put down. I highly recommend it."
