This would be a really good book for Logos.

The oldest pre-pub on my list is Who's Afraid of Postmodernism?: Taking Derrida, Lyotard, and Foucault to Church (The Church and Postmodern Culture). I would hope that's not indicative of the market for postmodern resources.
Yes, lots of books by Stanley Grenz would be great additions to Logos:
Theology for the Community of God
20th-Century Theology: God and the World in a Transitional Age
Created for Community: Connecting Christian Belief with Christian Living
Women in the Church: A Biblical Theology of Women in Ministry (with Denise Muir Kjesbo)
The Millennial Maze: Sorting Out Evangelical Options
The Moral Quest: Foundations of Christian Ethics
Rediscovering the Triune God
Beyond Foundationalism: Shaping Theology in a Postmodern Context (with John R. Franke)
Reason for Hope: The Systematic Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg
He's written more, but those are the most significant ones, I think. And he died so young (55). Wonder what more he would have done if he'd lived?

Postmodernism is so 90's! [;)]
I have Grenz in paperback. I wish I could say he was a real help to me. Like you, MJ, I have Who's Afraid on pre-pub and wonder where it has gone.
Postmodernism is so 90's!
So what are we in now, post-postmodernism? [;)]
Yup, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-postmodernism
Oh, my! We just dismantled the modern church to build the post-modern church and now we have to dismantle that to build the post-post-modern church?? Uggh! It's hard keeping up. Can we at least keep the espresso machine?

Maybe if we go far enough, we'll get back to where we started.

With proliferation of mobile electronic devices, wonder about future of a mobile church virtually connected ? (post-modern PC era)
Also wonder about Logos mobile app and Proclaim presentation with sermon integration so Bible verses appear during message (perhaps in each person's preferred bible).
Keep Smiling [:)]
Proclaim supports the concept of "Signals" which allows things such as Bible references - or calendar schedules - to be sent to a Logos mobile app

[Y] for Grenz!
