July Updates and Latest Books

Greetings from Zondervan Academic!   We're in the middle of summer. For many, this is conference season! Three members of our team attended the inaugural Scottish Dogmatics Conference at King's College, University of Aberdeen, which was co-sponsored by Zondervan Academic and featured plenary speakers John Behr, Bruce McCormack, Amy Peeler, Fred Sanders, and Judith Wolfe. It was great to see old friends and meet new ones. Look for the conference proceedings to be published sometime next year. In the meantime, sign up to receive updates for the next Scottish Dogmatics Conference in 2026. Zondervan Academic is celebrating several new releases from this past month. In Jesus, Contradicted: Why the Gospels Tell the Same Story Differently, Michael R. Licona explains how the genre of ancient biography explains the differences in the four Gospel accounts of Jesus. There's also a video lecture series that accompanies the book, and you can watch the first session for free. Next, Doctrine, Spirit, and Discipline: A History of the Wesleyan Tradition in the United States, by Kevin M. Watson, offers a broad survey of the Methodist movement as it developed and spread throughout America, from the colonial era to the present day. Here's the author celebrating the release with John Welsey himself: The second edition of Basics of Verbal Aspect in Biblical Greek, by Constantine R. Campbell is also available, and Greek professors can request a free exam copy. Looking ahead to this month, we're pleased to release the first volume in the Studies in Method series, Modern Genre Theory: An Introduction for Biblical Studies by Andrew Judd. Different conceptions of narrative, poetry, gospel, epistle, wisdom, and apocalyptic texts lead to vastly different readings, and our disagreements about what the Bible means often boil down to different assumptions about what the biblical text is. Drawing on advancements in genre theory, this book does three things: Proposes a working definition of genre for biblical studies; Identifies 12 tenets of modern genre theory that follow from seeing genres in their historical and social contexts; and Offers 8 case studies in biblical exegesis to show how a better understanding of genre leads to a better understanding of the Bible. In this video, Judd explains a bit more about the book: Looking beyond July, the new academic year is quickly approaching. If you're teaching a new course or considering a new book for an existing course, we are happy to send you free exam copies. We'll also provide you with free Instructor Resources for books you adopt for your classroom. These free resources are newly available this summer for Biblical Critical Theory and Bridging the Testaments. Now is also a great time to pre-order some upcoming fall releases, which include the NIV Application Commentary on the Bible: One-Volume Edition; Robert R. Duke's Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic Dictionary, and Kevin Vanhoozer's highly-anticipated Mere Christian Hermeneutics: Transfiguring What It Means to Read the Bible Theologically. This book is the follow-up to the classic Is There a Meaning in This Text? From our sister imprint, Zondervan Reflective, new and forthcoming releases include Scot McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips' Invisible Jesus: A Book about Leaving the Church and Looking for Christ, Jemar Tisby's The Spirit of Justice: True Stories of Faith, Race, and Resistance, Gavin Ortlund's What It Means to Be Protestant: The Case for an Always-Reforming Church, and Sarah Irving-Stonebraker's Priests of History: Stewarding the Past in an Ahistoric Age.
