Of Green Stuff Woven, by Cathleen Bascom, Bishop of Kansas. A fascinating novel about people saving the prairie.
La grazia como participación en la naturaleza divina según Tomas Aquino, by Marcel Sorondo Sanchez (I vetted the English translation, coming in 2024). A stunningly insightful investigation of Aquinas' understanding of grace.
Run, Rose, Run, by James Patterson & Dolly Parton. A fun mystery set in the heart of the country western music world.
Le frérisme et ses réseaux, by Florence Bergeaud-Blackler. How the Muslim Brotherhood is subverting democracy in Europe.
The Triune God (2 volumes) Bernard Lonergan, bilingual in Latin-English. His least-known masterpiece that completely recenters trinitarian theology. "Brilliant metaphysical fireworks" — Kate Sonderregger.
I want to read Beth Moore's book. I think there's more to her than I might have thought (uncharitably).
I can't resist tooting my own horn, since we are talking favorite books in 2023... For what it's worth, I published two books this year as well.
"Attentive, Intelligent, Rational, Responsible": Transforming Economics to Save the World, with John Raymaker (Marquette University Press).
Choose the Narrow Path: The Way for Churches to Walk Together, (Peter Lang). Volume 14 in the series, Studies in Episcopal and Anglican Theology.
and finally,
Le Livre de la Prière Commune (Church Publishing), a new translation of the 1979 BCP (I chaired the translation committee.)
