Heart Soul Mind Strength - A Narrative History of InterVarsity Press 1947-2022

Andrew T. Le Peau, Linda Doll

Editorial: IVP

Sinopsis

"Some publishers tell you what to believe. Other publishers tell you what you already believe. But InterVarsity Press helps you believe."
J. I. Packer
The history of evangelicalism cannot be understood apart from the authors and books that shaped it. Over the past century, leading figures such as pastor-scholar John Stott, apologist James W. Sire, evangelist Rebecca Manley Pippert and spiritual formation writer Eugene Peterson helped generations of readers to think more biblically and engage the world around them. For many who take their Christianity seriously, books that equip them for a life of faith have frequently come from one influential publisher: InterVarsity Press.
Andy Le Peau and Linda Doll provide a narrative history of InterVarsity Press, from its origins as the literature division of a campus ministry to its place as a prominent Christian publishing house. Here is a behind-the-scenes look at the stories, people, and events that made IVP what it is today. Recording good times and bad, celebrations and challenges, they place IVP in its historical context and demonstrate its contribution to the academy, church and world.
In honor of IVP's seventy-fifth anniversary, senior editor Al Hsu has updated this edition with new content, bringing the story up to 2022 and including stories about contemporary authors such as Esau McCaulley and Tish Harrison Warren. As IVP continues to adapt to changes in publishing and the global context, the mission of publishing thoughtful Christian books has not changed. IVP stands as a model of integrative Christianity for the whole person—heart, soul, mind and strength.

The New World Order

H. G. Wells

The New World Order is a non-fiction book written by H.G. Wells and was published by Secker & Warburg in January 1940. In The New World Order, Wells proposed a framework of international functionalism that could guide the world towards achieving world peace. To achieve these ends, Wells asserted that a socialist and scientifically planned world government would need to be formed to defend human rights.Wells's motivation for writing The New World Order was based upon the outbreak of World War II. Wells was concerned that the Allies had no clear statement of aims for fighting in the war and that this would lead to the continuation of the pre-existing balance of power. In The New World Order, Wells writes that without a revolution in international affairs and the establishment of human rights, then further destructive wars were inevitable.

Human Rights - A Universal Fight...

Marcus Kline

This is a bundle of 5 books, which are the following:
· Children's Rights: Children represent the future of our societies, yet they remain among the most vulnerable and marginalized populations worldwide. The protection of children's rights has become one of the most critical global issues in the 21st century, demanding urgent attention and action.
· Human Trafficking: Human trafficking is one of the gravest human rights abuses of our time, affecting millions of individuals across the globe. It is a hidden yet pervasive crime that exploits people for labor, sex, and other forms of servitude.
· Organ Harvesting: Organ harvesting represents one of the most pressing and disturbing ethical challenges of our time. This practice involves the removal of organs from individuals, often without consent, for transplantation or sale on the black market. While organ transplantation has revolutionized modern medicine, saving countless lives, the dark underbelly of the industry reveals a stark contrast—one where human rights are systematically violated, and vulnerable populations are exploited.
· Sexism: Sexism, a deeply entrenched social issue, has been pervasive throughout human history, shaping the experiences of individuals and communities across the globe. At its core, sexism refers to the belief that one gender is superior to another, typically manifesting in the unequal treatment and opportunities given to individuals based on their gender.
· Racism: Racism has been a persistent and destructive force throughout human history, shaping societies, cultures, and institutions in ways that continue to reverberate today. It manifests in myriad forms—through prejudice, discrimination, systemic inequities, and violence—targeting individuals and groups based on their race or ethnicity.

Grayson Ace

Dr. Cage explores the minds (and bodies) of his patients, but is he brave enough to find love? 
Dr Hunter Cage is an Ivy League educated sex therapist who is not afraid to be hands-on, when the treatment plan calls for it. He knows that sex is an integral part of mental wellness and his unorthodox methods work. 
When he leaves small town Pennsylvania to launch a private practice in San Francisco, he looks forward to helping a larger client base with more varied treatment modalities. Dr. Cage is just what the gay men of San Francisco need—he successfully treats men who refuse to bottom (and top!) and sufferers of sexual addiction. 
There’s just one problem: he can’t treat himself. Instead, Dr. Cage scours dating apps for men he can spend the night with and send home the next morning. He even hooks up with a flight attendant he has only ever kissed at 36,000 feet. But love has a way of finding a person. Will Dr. Cage know it when he sees it? Or is he destined for loneliness? 
Let Dr. Cage write you a prescription for twelve steamy tales.
