  Race complicates our relationships, even when we reject racism and seek to walk a better path together. How can we get our thinking—and our conversations—unstuck from entrenched patterns? In this book, four experts in psychology and social work present a model for how to build and deepen the cross-race relationships we want.
  The starting place, they testify, must be a biblical understanding of the problem of racial disunity, grounded in the grand narrative of Scripture, followed by practical insights about psychology and social behavior. This book is the culmination of professional—but also deeply personal—conversations the authors have had with each other, wrestling together over current events, their own stories, and their roles in the healing process. They combine biblical teachings with psychological science to help Christians develop the skills to discuss race and ethnicity.
  In each chapter, you will be guided through essential information, biblical examples, case studies, activities, and journaling exercises to prepare you to practice healing conversations. Using research from psychology, attachment theory, and emotionally focused therapy, this process will build your knowledge, self-awareness, other-awareness, and specific relational skills.
  Jesus embodied love, challenged injustice, welcomed those rejected by society, and engaged in healing conversations with everyone he encountered. The insights and practices in Healing Conversations on Race will help Christians grow in Christlikeness and follow his example.

  The History of the Peloponnesian...

  Thucydides

  The History of the Peloponnesian War is a historical account of the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC), which was fought between the Peloponnesian League (led by Sparta) and the Delian League (led by Athens). It was written by Thucydides, an Athenian historian who also served as an Athenian general during the war. His account of the conflict is widely considered to be a classic and regarded as one of the earliest scholarly works of history. The History is divided into eight books. 
  Analyses of the History generally occur in one of two camps. On the one hand, some scholars such as J. B. Bury view the work as an objective and scientific piece of history. The judgment of Bury reflects this traditional interpretation of the History as "severe in its detachment, written from a purely intellectual point of view, unencumbered with platitudes and moral judgments, cold and critical." 
  On the other hand, in keeping with more recent interpretations that are associated with reader-response criticism, the History can be read as a piece of literature rather than an objective record of the historical events. This view is embodied in the words of W. R. Connor, who describes Thucydides as "an artist who responds to, selects and skillfully arranges his material, and develops its symbolic and emotional potential.

  The Critique of Pure Reason

  Immanuel Kant

  The Critique of Pure Reason is a philosophical work written by Immanuel Kant, published in 1781. The book is divided into two main parts: the first part deals with what Kant calls "Transcendental Aesthetic," which is concerned with the nature of space and time and the way in which our minds perceive them. The second part deals with what Kant calls "Transcendental Logic," which is concerned with the nature of our understanding and how we reason about the world. 
  In the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant aims to investigate the limits and conditions of knowledge, particularly in the context of metaphysics. He argues that all knowledge must be based on experience, but that our understanding is not limited to the information that we can gain through our senses. Rather, he posits that we have certain innate concepts and categories that allow us to make sense of the world and that shape our perception and understanding of reality. 
  Kant's approach to metaphysics is known as transcendental idealism, which holds that the world as it appears to us is not necessarily the same as it is in itself. He argues that we can only know the world as it appears to us, not as it is in itself, and that our knowledge is necessarily limited by the nature of our minds and our perception. 
  Overall, the Critique of Pure Reason is a complex and influential work that has had a profound impact on philosophy, particularly in the fields of epistemology and metaphysics. It is considered a foundational text of modern philosophy and is still widely studied and debated today.
