From the origins of Stephen in the Synagogue of the Freemen and moving past the encounter with Jesus near Damascus, Tad de Bordenave outlines how we see Paul moving from the leading stalwart for Jewish exclusivity to the apostle to the nations. In this history, we see the same controversies that divided the early church continuing today.

God’s Other Children tells of seven groups of people who are largely unnoticed by the rest of the world. Tad de Bordenave draws on his experience of over two decades of pastoral ministry and his experience as first Director of Anglican Frontier Missions for a heart and a perception of those overlooked. The thread running throughout is the call to the church to “rise humbly, stand boldly, and make war on the oppressors of God’s children.”

AFM Founder and first director Tad de Bordenave argues that the proper and primary filter for reading St. Paul is seeing his determination that the grace of God be extended to all nations. This was his foremost teaching and the centerpiece of his ministry. Alongside the many outstanding emphases that guide the church, this should be out front—as teaching and as clarion call.

Over the last decades we have seen a surge in the number of converts from Islam to Christianity in various parts of the world. This book, based on years of field research among these ex-Muslim Christians, seeks to summarize and understand the contextual theologies that these converts are proposing in their songs, testimonies and sermons. The book is an edited version of Miller's doctoral thesis at the University of Edinburgh.

Have you struggled with making sense of suffering—whether in your own life, in the history of God’s people, or just in the world around you? What if you could come to see it as pain that is intended to be productive of new life? That is precisely what the writer argues in this study of the biblical perspective on suffering; these birth pains the key to a profound understanding of the place of suffering in God’s redemptive plan not only for humanity but for the cosmos, and especially in the life of the Church and the individual Christian.
