Transhumanism and the Image of God
Examining the transhumanist movement, biblical ethicist Jacob Shatzer grapples with the potential for technology to transform the way we think about what it means to be human. Exploring the doctrine of incarnation and topics such as artificial intelligence, robotics, medical technology, and communications tools, he guides us into careful consideration of the future of Christian discipleship in a disruptive technological environment.
Humanity
John Hammett’s and Katie McCoy’s Humanity is built on four assumptions: that humans are creatures, that they can only be understood in light of the intentions of their Creator, that the Creator’s intentions are revealed in the pages of Scripture, and that humans enjoy a truly and fully human life only when they live in accordance with their created nature. Thus, this work seeks to offer a biblical perspective on human nature as designed by God.

For Such a Time as This
What do you get when you add a Fortune 500 CEO to a veteran Muppeteer, both recently awakened in Christ? Steep them in the prophetic preaching of Times Square Church and the story of William Wilberforce. Simmer them in the spectacle of moral chaos in the West and the heroics of Anglican archbishops in the Global South. Before long, you have an inspired array of publications, productions, gatherings, and endowments. This is the ongoing legacy of Emmanuel and Camille Kampouris. The prophet Zechariah (4:10) assures us that the Lord can use small beginnings for great purposes. This book illustrates the way in which seemingly-minor divine appointments and providential junctures can open the way t...

The Digital Public Square
We now inhabit a digital world. Social media has changed and challenged some of our most basic understandings of truth, faith, and even the idea of a public square. In The Digital Public Square, editor Jason Thacker has chosen top Christian voices to help the church navigate the issues of censorship, conspiracy theories, sexual ethics, hate speech, religious freedom, and tribalism. In this unique work, David French, Patricia Shaw, and many others cast a distinctly Christian vision of a digital public theology to promote the common good throughout society.
The Ethics of Generating Posthumans
Should transhuman and posthuman persons ever be brought into existence? And if so, could they be generated in a good and loving way? This study explores how society may respond to the actual generation of new kinds of persons from ethical, philosophical, and theological perspectives. Contributors to this volume address a number of essential questions, including the ethical ramifications of generating new life, the relationships that generators may have with their creations, and how these creations may consider their generation. This collection's interdisciplinary approach traverses the philosophical writings of Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, and Heidegger, alongside theological considerations from Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. It invites academics, faith leaders, policy makers, and stakeholders to think through the ethical gamut of generating posthuman and transhuman persons.

Through thoughtful analysis and scriptural insights, Anderson equips readers to discern the signs of the times and apply a biblical worldview to contemporary issues. This book encourages believers to stay informed, be proactive, and seek God’s wisdom in addressing the moral and ethical dilemmas of today. "Discerning the Future" is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the future through the lens of faith, offering hope and guidance in uncertain times.
Created in the Image of God
All people have dignity because they are created in the image of God. This theological belief has been a liberating force among its believers, providing a myriad of beautiful implications in our world. On the other hand, where the idea of being created in God’s image has been misunderstood, the implications can be devastating. Created in the Image of God brings together leading experts to discuss what it means to be made in image of God and to bring clarity and guidance for implications in the midst of our cultural confusion. The overall approach of this work, though distinct and focused in each of the chapters, reflects a consensus understanding that men and women have been created in God...
