A Groundbreaking New Work from CRAIG KEENER

The Mind of the SpiritPaul’s Approach to Transformed Thinking

Craig S. Keener978-0-8010-9776-8 • 400 pp. • $32.99c

COMING JUNE 2016

This major work by a leading New Testament scholar explores an important but neglected area of Pauline theology, Paul’s teaching about the mind.

In discussing matters such as the corrupted mind, the mind of Christ, and the renewal of the mind, Paul adapts language from popular intel-lectual thought in his day, but he does so in a way distinctively focused on Christ and Christ’s role in the believer’s transformation. Keener enables readers to understand this thought world so they can interpret Paul’s language for contemporary Christian life.

The Mind of the Spirit helps overcome a false separation between following the Spirit and using human judgment, and provides a new foundation for relating biblical studies and Christian counseling.

“An important book for anyone interested in the relationship of Pauline theology to its cultural context.”—Harold Attridge, Yale Divinity School
