Wright, N. T. - The Millenium Myth
Wright, N. T. - The Millenium Myth
A great book about the confrontation between and the overlap of Christianity and Postmodernism.
Wright says Xty is the only answer to the challenge of Postmodernism, because Christianity is not a powerplay if displayed correctly. Christianity also identifies with the deconstruction of false powers. This is what Jesus did to Caesar in the cross.
A good short read.

Enns, Peter - Inspiration and Incarnation
Excellent book that helps show a very rational and historically minded conservative view of scripture.
By conservative I don't mean 6-day. I mean the canon is God's book, the Holy Spirit is the power behind the Word of God to his people.
The Principles of fundamentalism or modernism in reading the Bible are avoided.
