Synopsis

The I Ching, or The Book of Changes, is an ancient Chinese text that serves as both a divination guide and a philosophical treatise. Its complex system of hexagrams, formed by the interplay of yin and yang, reflects a profound understanding of duality and change in the universe. Through rich parables and commentaries, the text explores themes such as balance, moral integrity, and the cyclical nature of life. The stylistic elegance of the I Ching, characterized by terse yet evocative language, situates it within the broader literary tradition of classical Chinese philosophy, influencing both Eastern and Western thought over centuries. Though attributed to various sages within the Confucian and Taoist traditions, the true identity of its author remains anonymous, allowing the text to embody collective wisdom rather than individual ambition. The historical context of this work reflects ancient China's dynamic social fabric, with the text emerging from a synthesis of superstition, philosophy, and governance, which might have shaped its emphasis on harmony and ethical decision-making in an ever-changing world. I recommend the I Ching to readers seeking insights into the universal laws of change and balance. This timeless masterpiece not only offers guidance for personal reflection and decision-making but also serves as a philosophical anchor in tumultuous times, making it a vital read for scholars, practitioners of divination, and those interested in the intricate dance of fate and free will.

    It's time to move past talk. It's no longer news to most of us that our society has a deep-seated racism problem. Christians of all ethnic and economic backgrounds are tired of seeing the ugly legacy of racism play out before their eyes and feeling ill-equipped to respond. They watch as friends and family members leave the visible church over this issue, or fall prey to a gospel of White nationalism that is an affront to the cross of Christ.
    Racism presents itself as an undefeatable foe—a sustained scourge on the reputation of the church. In Faithful Antiracism, Christina Barland Edmondson and Chad Brennan take confidence from the truth that Christ has overcome the world, including racism, and offer clear analysis and interventions to challenge and resist its pernicious power. Drawing on brand-new research from the landmark Race, Religion, and Justice Project led by Michael Emerson and others, this book represents the most comprehensive study on Christians and race since Emerson's own book Divided by Faith (2001). It invites readers to put this data to immediate practical use, applying it to their own specific context.
    Compelled by our grievous social moment and by the timeless truth of Scripture, Faithful Antiracism will equip readers to move past talk and enter the fight against racism in both practical and hopeful ways.

    A Clear, Biblical Picture of God's Unconditional Love for His Children
    Many believers know that "God is love." But whether through cultural lies, false beliefs, or years of mulling over the tragedies of the world, it may be difficult to see the true, steadfast, and unchanging love of the Father. Thankfully the Bible offers a clear picture of what God's love looks like and how, through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, believers experience his affection for themselves. 
    Taking an accessible approach to biblical theology, author Sam Storms explores Scripture to address what God's love is and what it isn't. Drawing insights from the Psalms and the life of Jesus, Storms covers God's sovereignty and the saving power, longevity, and sin-killing nature of his love. The Steadfast Love of the Lord breaks down obstacles that prevent believers from accepting biblical truths and challenges the cultural lies that hinder them from accepting God's vast and unfathomable love.
    
    - Accessible: An introductory approach to biblical theology, this book is perfect for laypeople and thoughtful Christians 
    - Practical: Not only helps believers study the nature of God but helps them experience his affection for themselves 
    - Honest: From a biblical perspective, this book addresses the cultural lies of our age to explain what love is and what it isn't

    King Jesus

    “Both the knowledge of a scholar and the imagination of a poet are brought to bear upon Jesus as child, boy, and man. . . . A bold speculative adventure” (Harold Brighouse, Manchester Guardian).   In Robert Graves’s unique retelling, Jesus is very much a mortal and the grandson of King Herod the Great. When his father runs afoul of the king’s temper and is executed, Jesus is raised in the house of Joseph the Carpenter. The kingdom he is heir to, in this version of the story, is very much a terrestrial one: the Kingdom of Judah. Graves tells of Jesus’s rise as a philosopher, scriptural scholar, and charismatic speaker in sharp detail, as well as his arrest and downfall as a victim of pitiless Roman politics.   Bringing together his unparalleled narrative skill and in-depth expertise in historical scholarship, renowned classicist and historical novelist Robert Graves brings the story of Jesus Christ to life in a strikingly unorthodox way, making this one of the most hotly contested novels Graves ever wrote—and possibly one of the most controversial ever written. It provides a fascinating new twist to a well-known story, one that fans of this historical period are sure to love.   “This is not reading for the easily shocked; it definitely presents Jesus as a sage and a [poet], if not divine. It moves, as does all Mr. Graves’ writing, at a brilliant fast pace, and with a tremendous style.” —Kirkus Reviews

    As Christian women, we have been given a beautiful charge to delight in God and His Word. But if we’re honest, this is easier said than done. We find ourselves bombarded by busy schedules, overwhelmed with unexpected grief, carrying financial burdens, feeling an emptiness in our hearts and souls, and the list goes on. We genuinely want to find delight in the Lord and the life He has given us but some days have no idea where to start. Elle Cardel, founder of the Daughter of Delight ministry, would be the first to tell you that a life of delight is possible and there is joy to be found in delighting in God’s ways over our own–even when things don’t make sense. The more you get to know God as revealed through the Bible, the more you will come to genuinely embrace and grow in your delight in the Lord. In She Delights, through Elle’s personal story and unique teaching style, she will encourage you to  Learn what God’s delight in you actually looks like  Discover what it realistically looks like to have a heart of delight for God  Explore how God’s delight in you inspires, guides and transforms your delight in Him  Reflect on how a life focused on delighting in God looks different than a life centered on the world– and why that’s a good thing!  Let Elle come alongside you as you are challenged, encouraged, and equipped to pursue God in every season. As you embrace the call to delight in the Lord, may you find great joy in the truth that God delights in you, always.
