One challenge facing today's readers and students of Scripture is how to make theconnection between God's Word and our everyday lives. The Connections seriesresponds to that call by exploring the relationships between the Bible and contemporarydisciplines. By integrating current Scripture scholarship with the concerns of other fields,such as ethical problems in light of Scripture, science and Scripture, contemporary socialchallenges and Scripture, and the Bible in non-biblical cultures, this series invites us to applyScripture to our daily realities for a wider and deeper appreciation of God's Word.

Contributors to this series bring their varied perspectives, knowledge, and life and faithexperiences to the volumes. Making the "connection" in another sense, Connectionslinks their perspectivesJewish, Muslim, and Christian; academic and pastoral; Word andtraditionas well as methodology, culture, ethnicity, gender, and age, thus inviting us tobroaden our knowledge and comprehension of the Bible and its applications to modern life.

Rather than adding to the potential confusion brought about by the ever-increasing number of study methods and perspectives, Connections builds bridges ofunderstanding for the reader revealing more of God's intent for us by encouraging us tostudy and reflect on the Word of God from the life experiences, outlooks, and wisdom ofmany people.

College teachers of theology and religion, upper-division undergraduate andgraduate students, and educated readers will appreciate the lively discussions this series issure to ignite.
