What I believe

Bertrand Russell

Summary

In "What I Believe," Bertrand Russell presents a profound exploration of his philosophical convictions and personal beliefs, articulating a worldview shaped by reason, humanism, and skepticism. Written in a concise and engaging style, this work reflects Russell's commitment to clarity and rational discourse, emerging from the context of early 20th-century intellectual thought. It addresses essential themes such as morality, religion, and the quest for meaning, as Russell confronts the complexities of modern existence through his distinctive blend of analytic rigor and poetic expression. Bertrand Russell, a towering figure in philosophy, mathematics, and social activism, wrote this work in an era marked by rapid scientific advancements and existential crises. His inclusive approach to philosophy was influenced by his upbringing in a prominent intellectual family, as well as his extensive engagement with political and social issues. Russell's lifelong pursuit of knowledge and truth is palpable in this book, as he strives to demystify life's fundamental questions for both himself and his readers. I highly recommend "What I Believe" for anyone seeking a thoughtful and accessible introduction to Russell's philosophical ethos. This book not only enriches our understanding of the interplay between belief and skepticism but also serves as an invitation to reflect on our own convictions in a world fraught with uncertainty.

Yearning - Race Gender and...

Bell Hooks

For bell hooks, the best cultural criticism sees no need to separate politics from the pleasure of reading. Yearning collects together some of hooks's classic and early pieces of cultural criticism from the '80s. Addressing topics like pedagogy, postmodernism, and politics, hooks examines a variety of cultural artifacts, from Spike Lee's film Do the Right Thing and Wim Wenders's film Wings of Desire to the writings of Zora Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison. The result is a poignant collection of essays which, like all of hooks's work, is above all else concerned with transforming oppressive structures of domination.

Rather than feeling the weight of it all, it’s easier to spend our days on autopilot, ignoring the noise inside.But what if the peace and relief we most long for comes from tuning in with what’s happening inside, instead of tuning it out?Join therapist Anna Christine (A.C.) Seiple on a compassionate, mindful exploration of the depths of our souls. With gentleness, wisdom, and expertise, A.C. invites us to connect with our body and get curious about the spaces within that feel most stuck―and find where we need safety, attunement and care.Rather than a prescriptive “how-to” guide, The Sacred Art of Slowing Down offers unique therapeutic prompts and contemplative reflections to help uscultivate new rhythms to work with what’s happening inside rather than feeling like we’re working against ourselvesholistically explore the cognitive, emotional, spiritual, and somatic strands of ourselves―connecting with and honoring the whole of our created beingbecome more comfortable with being instead of getting caught up in doing through experiential exercisesembrace God’s tender compassion and care―especially for the most wounded parts of usWhen we slow down to connect with the depths of our being, we are able to move through life in freer, more wholehearted―and whole-bodied―ways.

Learning Our Names - Asian...

La Thao, Linson Daniel, David de...

What's your name? 
 
 
 
Asian Americans know the pain of being called names that deny our humanity. We may toggle back and forth between different names as a survival strategy. But it's a challenge to discern what names reflect our true identities as Asian Americans and as Christians. In an era when Asians face ongoing discrimination and marginalization, it can be hard to live into God's calling for our lives. 
 
 
 
Asian American Christians need to hear and own our diverse stories beyond the cultural expectations of the model minority or perpetual foreigner. A team from East Asian, Southeast Asian, and South Asian backgrounds explores what it means to learn our names and be seen by God. They encourage us to know our history, telling diverse stories of the Asian diaspora in America who have been shaped and misshaped by migration, culture, and faith. As we live in the multiple tensions of being Asian American Christians, we can discover who we are and what God may have in store for us and our communities.
