Experience the stories of Lent in a vibrant, new way this spring as you Color Lent! The journey of Lent--from Ash Wednesday to Easter--is traditionally one of prayer, repentance, spiritual discipline, and meditation. But coloring? 
Now you're invited to add the spiritual practice of "coloring the Bible" on your Lenten journey. Engage both sides of your brain as you read the scripture and color your way through each day of Lent with evocative illustrations of God's Resurrection story, from the Old Testament prophecies of Emmanuel to Jesus' victorious appearances after his crucifixion to the loyal Disciples. Dozens of drawings will draw you deeper into the story and your own place in it. 
From the Introduction: "This moment of Easter is Good News for this Jesus, who is fully human and fully God, yet it is even better news for the world: God has not only moved into the world with humans but the fullness of God has taken on flesh. As you color these pages, then, consider how your fingertips, your palms, your body have now become the house of God, and following the stories of the Hebrew and New Testaments, consider how we might also walk the same journey of Jesus." 
Grab your crayons, colored pencils and pens, and prepare to deepen your journey to Easter this year with Coloring Lent.

Living Pulpit: Sermons That Illustrate Preaching in the Stone-Campbell Movement 1968-2018

Fifty years of preaching excellence in one volume. The Living Pulpit collects sermons from representative preachers in the Stone-Campbell Movement--pastors affiliated with the Churches of Christ, the Christian Churches/Churches of Christ, and the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)--over the past 50 years. The fourth volume in a series that began in 1868, this collection of sermons from 40 ministers, reviewed by a diverse team of scholars, captures the theological themes and changing approaches to preaching across the Movement's three streams. Emerging from an era of mutual suspicion, the three streams have developed a better understanding, shared mutuality and respect for each stream's unique qualities, and cooperated in many venues, qualities reflected in this collection. The Living Pulpit 2018 helps preachers and scholars recognize where preaching has been--and why it has been there--in each stream, and where preaching appears to be going in a new mission field for Christianity and the Unity Movement.

To Pave the Way for His People: A Life of Preston Taylor

Robinson, Edward J.

With this memoir, Keith Watkins has gifted us with a thoughtful and engaging account of his own theological developments over the last seven decades, and in so doing this professor-pastor offers us an autobiographical account that opens out to tell a broader intellectual history of Disciples since the 1950s, especially around the interrelated themes of the Eucharist and Christian unity. This theological memoir will be of interest not only to those who study Disciples history and thought-although it is a must read for them-but those with an interest in the fields of ecumenism, modern American religious history, practical theology, and eucharistic studies will find much to savor in these pages as well.
