Hadot shows how the schools, trends, and ideas of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy strove to transform the individual's mode of perceiving and being in the world. For the ancients, philosophical theory and the philosophical way of life were inseparably linked. Hadot asks us to consider whether and how this connection might be reestablished today.

The Book of Martyrs by John Foxe written in the 16th century has long been the go-to source for studying the lives and martyrdom of the apostles. Whilst other scholars have written individual treatments on the more prominent apostles such as Peter, Paul, John, and James, there is little published information on the other apostles. In The Fate of the Apostles, Sean McDowell offers a comprehensive, reasoned, historical analysis of the fate of the twelve disciples of Jesus along with the apostles Paul, and James. McDowell assesses the evidence for each apostle’s martyrdom as well as determining its significance to the reliability of their testimony. The question of the fate of the apostles also gets to the heart of the reliability of the kerygma: did the apostles really believe Jesus appeared to them after his death, or did they fabricate the entire story? How reliable are the resurrection accounts? The willingness of the apostles to die for their faith is a popular argument in resurrection studies and McDowell offers insightful scholarly analysis of this argument to break new ground within the spheres of New Testament studies, Church History, and apologetics.

Medical Materialities investigates possible points of cross-fertilisation between medical anthropology and material culture studies, and considers the successes and limitations of both sub-disciplines as they attempt to understand places, practices, methods, and cultures of healing. The editors present and expand upon a definition of ‘medical materiality’, namely the social impact of the agency of often mundane, at times non-clinical, materials within contexts of health and illness, as caused by the properties and affordances of this material. The chapters address material culture in various clinical and biomedical contexts and in discussions that link the body and healing. The diverse ethnographic case studies provide valuable insight into the way cultures of medicine are understood and practised.

Modern commentaries and scholars often discount the authorship of the Fourth Gospel completely as if no good evidence exists for the Apostle John, son of Zebedee, its traditional author. One prominent scholar even suggested that the Apostle John was illiterate. He cited Acts 4:13 as evidence for his argument. This short piece examines this an other authorship claims. For at least 1,700 years, the vast majority of churches around the world have held to traditional authorship. While modern scholarship has all but abandoned even the idea of John, son of Zebedee, as the Fourth Gospel's author, Christians for 1,700 years were not void of evidence, by which they backed their claims/assumptions. Can a true scholar hold to traditional authorship while remaining academic? Today, a need exists to revisit the facts of the traditional authorship of the Fourth Gospel. Kelly Seely examines a variety of internal and external evidence seeking to answer this question.
