When I heard this I couldn’t help thinking of the IVP Academic catalog. So if you’ll pardon some oversimplifica- tion (psychologists, I look forward to your emails). “Autonomy” sparked thoughts about how creative, how innovative, and how thoroughly independent our authors are. We at InterVarsity Press relish the openness of the conversations our books participate in, even to the point that one book or its author might not always sit too easily next to another. (I’ll refrain from mentioning titles.) Or to put it another way, in these pages you’ll find no fewer thanthree unrelated historical novels about New Testament times, and they all take their own tack on the biblical data and its imaginative possibilities. The life of the mind has a life of its own, and we trust under the superintendence of the Lord that it’s worth following down many paths. “Mastery” is almost too obvious to comment on—and the profound competence of these books’ authors is inspiring. You’ll see veterans here who have cemented a reputation over decades of scholarship and teaching, like John Goldingay and Samuel Escobar, as well as younger scholars building on fresher foundations of exper- tise, like Bethany Fox and Jacob Shatzer. Whether it’s in counseling (Steve Greggo), history (Tracy McKenzie), rhetoric (Jim Beitler), or biblical studies and theology (too many to name!), these are experts worth attending to. “Relatedness” made me think of several dimensions of this catalog. We’re delighted to welcome to these pages a number of scholars well established in their writing careers but who are new to the IVP family, like Gwenfair Adams, Leo Sánchez, and Marilynne Robinson. But also, so many of these books make insightful moves to shine light from one domain of thought into another and in the process create new connections and conversa- tions between thinkers—and of course readers. Two new books in our CAPS series do this for psychology and spiritual formation, as does Jackson Wu with cultural and biblical studies, among others. Giving you the chance to encounter new thinkers and engage new ideas is what this is all about. May you find much intrinsic motivation here to go deeper and broader in your own thinking and doing.
