    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
    Every adoption is rooted in loss.
    Adoption is often framed by happy narratives, but the reality is that many adoptees struggle with unaddressed trauma and issues of identity and belonging. Adoptees often spend the majority of their youth without the language to explore the grief related to adoption or the permission to legitimize their conflicting emotions.
    Adoptee and counselor Cameron Lee Small names the realities of the adoptee's journey, narrating his own and other adoptees' stories in all their complexity. He unpacks the history of how adoption has worked and names how the church influenced adoption practices with unintended negative impacts on adoptees' faith. Small's own tumultuous search for and reunion with his mother in Korea inspired him to help other adoptees navigate what it means to carry multiple stories. His adoptee-centered advocacy helps adoptees regain their agency and identity on a journey of integration and healing, with meaningful relationships in all their family systems.

    Susannah Griffith wishes she had spent less time thinking about forgiveness. But as a Christian minister, a biblical scholar, and a survivor of abuse, she has learned a lot about it. 
     
     
     
    In Forgiveness after Trauma, Griffith explores what the Bible says—and doesn't say—about the biblical call to forgive. She helps listeners understand this command in ways that are healing and restorative, framing it within broader concerns around lament, anger, accountability, release and rebirth, and reconciliation. 
     
     
     
    The result is what Griffith calls "trauma-informed forgiveness," which takes seriously God's forgiveness of sinners while centering survivors of abuse and aiding their healing. This view also empowers those who have been harmed in other ways by abuses of power and justice in religious institutions. 
     
     
     
    Listeners will resonate with Griffith's astute biblical analysis and personal reflection, which point to God's love—a love that never includes abuse and strives for justice for the vulnerable.

    Ancient Egyptian astronomy was deeply intertwined with the culture’s religious beliefs, daily life, and architectural marvels. Long before modern telescopes and advanced instruments, the Egyptians observed the night sky with precision, using it to navigate their world, mark the passing of time, and guide their spiritual practices. Astronomy was not merely a scientific endeavor but a fundamental aspect of their understanding of the cosmos and its connection to the gods. 
    The Egyptians viewed the stars, planets, and other celestial bodies as manifestations of divine power. Central to their astronomical system was the Sun, which they associated with the god Ra. Ra's journey across the sky each day symbolized the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. The Sun’s movement was used to structure the day and marked important moments in the agricultural calendar, such as the flooding of the Nile. The Egyptians also closely tracked the movements of the Moon and stars, which helped them define the months and seasons. 
    The study of the stars held profound religious significance for the ancient Egyptians. They believed that the stars were the eyes of the gods, observing and guiding humanity. Certain constellations, such as Orion, were particularly important, representing Osiris, the god of the afterlife. The Egyptians’ knowledge of the stars was so advanced that it influenced the alignment of their monumental architecture. The Great Pyramid of Giza, for instance, is aligned with remarkable precision to the stars, showcasing their ability to map the heavens and incorporate that knowledge into their constructions.
