The solution is right in front of us - the Christian church, an outpost of the heavenly city among the cities of men.

However, many Christians are often disgusted by the barbarity and violence, put off by the emphasis on honor and man-centered glory, and simply baffled by the long and tedious descriptions of battle scenes and elaborate ceremonies. In this book written for high school students, Leithart gives a patient, yet criti ..." |

Leithart, Canon Press Paperback, 286 Pages, Published 1996 by Canon Press ISBN-13: 978-1-885767-23-3, ISBN: 1-885767-23-4 "Shakespeare was, as Caesar says of Cassius, "a great observer," able to see and depict patterns of events and character. He understood how politics is shaped by the clash of men with various colorings of self-interest and idealism, how violence breeds violence, how fragile human beings create masks and disguises for protection, how schemers do the same for advancement, how love can grow out of hate and hate out of love. Dare anyone say ..." |

Leithart Paperback, 350 Pages, Published 2018 by Baylor University Press ISBN-13: 978-1-60258-450-1, ISBN: 1-60258-450-8 "Gratitude is often understood as etiquette rather than ethics, an emotion rather than politics. It was not always so. From Seneca to Shakespeare, gratitude was a public virtue. The circle of benefaction and return of service worked to make society strong. But at the beginning of the modern era, European thinkers began to imagine a political economy freed from the burdens of gratitude. Though this rethinking was part of a larger process ..." |

But do you understand them?The Ten Commandments have become so familiar to us that we don't think about what they actually mean.

Their outward simplicity hides their inward complexity. Jesus himself sums up the entire law in a pair of commandments: Love God ..." |

Leithart Paperback, 279 Pages, Published 2000 by Canon Press ISBN-13: 978-1-885767-69-1, ISBN: 1-885767-69-2 "The best stories subtly weave themes and characters and symbols into a stunning final tapestry. For many Christians, sadly, the Old Testament is merely a jumble of moralistic stories and weird rituals, genealogies, and historical chronicles. What is the point of it all, and what does it have to do with Jesus? In this short and readable book, Leithart gives a sweeping overview of the Bible, its stories, and the patterns and symbols that ..." |

Leithart Paperback, 160 Pages, Published 2003 by Canon Press ISBN-13: 978-1-59128-006-4, ISBN: 1-59128-006-0 "How could a conservative Christian - an ordained minister with a beard, no less - be against not only Christianity, but theology, sacraments, and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative theological bricolage. Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture, church, and state, Leithart offers a series of short essays, aphorisms, and parables that challenge the current dichotomies that govern both ..." |
