We're joined this week by author and professor, Mark D. Baker, to talk about themes from his new book, Centered-Set Church: Discipleship and Community Without Judgementalism (available now from InterVarsity Press). In his book, Baker shows how Scripture presents an alternative to either obsessing over boundaries or simply erasing them. Centered churches are able to affirm their beliefs and live out their values without such bitter fruit as gracelessness, shame, and self-righteousness on the one hand, or aimless "whateverism" on the other. We'll talk about what this means for churches, and explore some communities who are trying to reimagine what it means to center ourselves around Jesus Christ.

We're joined this week by author and professor, Rev. Dr. Jennifer Garcia Bashaw, to talk about themes from her new book, Scapegoats: The Gospel through the Eyes of Victims. Bashaw uses René Girard's arguments to show that Jesus's whole public ministry (not only his death) combats the marginalization of victims. These scapegoat stories work together to illuminate an essential truth of the Gospels--that Jesus modeled a reality in which victims become survivors and the marginalized become central to the kingdom. This book is available now from Fortress Press.

Loving mercy. Walking with humility. Loving others. Loving God. This powerful book is available now from Herald Press.
