  What if God is very interested in your waste? What if you looked out your window and saw Jesus going through your trash can? Would that surprise you? The greatest illusion of our time comes in the form of waste. From landfills, to micro-trash, to invisible emissions, to imperceivable pollutants, to the factories and shores we never see... it's all hidden away from our sight. However, the harmful effects of this global wastefulness reach far and wide. It's touching the lives of everyone you love, every place you've been, and every single thing you can imagine. What if your faith requires a greater awareness about the things you eat, buy, and throw away? Could it be that your salvation is tied to all of God's creation and that you have the opportunity to join God's work of restoration? While addressing the environmental challenges of our time, Garbage Theology seeks to connect our Biblical call to serve and keep creation with how we live our lives today. Through personal stories extracted from years of working in the trash and recycling industry while pastoring a local church, author Caleb Cray Haynes introduces and examines a theology of consumption and waste through the lens of Scripture and our story as the people of God in the context of our current global environmental crises. Rev. Caleb Cray Haynes is the Director of Nazarenes for Creation Care, the host of The ecoChristian Podcast, and the Community and Creation Pastor at Kaleo Nashville Church. He also is a co-author of Keeping Creation, a 5-week small group study on the Biblical call to tend and serve the earth. He is a Partner with the Evangelical Environmental Network, an Ordained Elder in The Church of the Nazarene, and holds an MA in Theology: Ecology from Nazarene Theological College in Manchester, UK. He resides in Nashville, TN with his wife Emily, and two daughters Story and Daily. More at CalebCrayHaynes.com

  Rewiring Democracy - How AI Will...

  In this advisedly optimistic book, Rewiring Democracy, security technologist Bruce Schneier and data scientist Nathan Sanders cut through the AI hype and examine the myriad ways that AI is transforming every aspect of democracy—for both good and ill.The authors describe how the sophistication of AI will fulfill demands from lawmakers for more complex legislation, reducing deference to the executive branch and altering the balance of power between lawmakers and administrators. They show how the scale and scope of AI is enhancing civil servants' ability to shape private-sector behavior, automating either the enforcement or neglect of industry regulations. They also explain how both lawyers and judges will leverage the speed of AI, upending how we think about law enforcement, litigation, and dispute resolution.Whether these outcomes enhance or degrade democracy depends on how we shape the development and use of AI technologies. Powerful players in private industry and public life are already using AI to increase their influence, and AIs built by corporations don't deliver the fairness and trust required by democratic governance. But, steered in the right direction, AI's broad capabilities can augment democratic processes and help citizens build consensus, express their voice, and shake up long-standing power structures.
