Sinopsis

What is Critical Race Theory?
It may be one of the most widely referenced issues of the day, but it's also one of the least understood. In its translation from the academic world to the general public, Critical Race Theory (CRT) has inaccurately become a catch-all term for anything related to race. But what does it actually mean, and how should Christians engage it?
Ed Uszynski—whose PhD in American culture studies navigated readings in Marxism, Critical Theory, and Critical Race Theory—carefully unpacks what critical race theorists seek to accomplish and what Christians can learn from them. Uszynski generously explores CRT's roots, context, and central tenets, revealing how its insights are used and distorted but also how they might benefit the church. With responsible answers to legitimate concerns, Uszynski goes beyond the surface to provide a reliable path of just discernment and cultural engagement.

    Not That Wheel Jesus! - Stories...

    From the bestselling author of Holy Hot Mess, a laugh-out-loud look at what happens when life goes a direction we didn't expect and we are forced to reconsider the beliefs, assumptions, and stories that have always steered our course.  Mary Katherine Backstrom grew up the most basic of all youth group kids—pH level 14—and her faith only grew as she led youth ministry, served as a missionary, and went on to become a bestselling Christian author. She knew all the practiced, perfect Sunday school answers and was driving happily down the straight and narrow, until one day her young son asked a simple question: will my Jewish best friend go to hell? In the months and years that followed, that single question continued to snowball. MK challenged and reconsidered every part of the faith she’d been raised to accept so completely. Not That Wheel, Jesus! is Mary Katherine’s hilarious journey from certainty to doubt to going nuclear on the socials (“it was my heresy era”), and then of slowly and painfully finding her way back to a different, less defined faith. It’s the heartfelt and achingly honest story of a spirituality that went off the road and crashed and burned in spectacular fashion, right before God and everybody. And then, slowly, through grace and plenty of therapy, grew richer and deeper than she ever could have imagined.

    Womanish Theology - Discovering...

    Khristi Lauren Adams's faith was first shaped by her experiences as a Black girl—learning about Scripture from her grandmother, Mama Hattie; "playing church" with her seven cousins over summer vacation; and grieving the murder of her sixteen-year-old friend when she was just fifteen. 
     
     
     
    In Womanish Theology, Adams reflects on those experiences, inviting listeners to learn from a new perspective and guiding them to a deeper understanding of their own spirituality. 
     
     
     
    This groundbreaking book introduces a new branch of theological thought Adams calls womanish, as a play on the womanist tradition (the theology of Black womanhood). "Womanish," remembers Adams, is a term Black mothers used for young girls as they grew more interested in doing grown-up things. Adams draws on her own life story as well as the life stories of other Black girls to explore theological concepts such as Scripture, theodicy, salvation, prayer, neighborly love, and the image of God. 
     
     
     
    Through this journey, listeners will learn that theology is for everyone and that the whole community of God can learn from the spiritual insights of Black girls.

    Can a Jewish man and a Muslim fall in love and marry? Love and Hope Have No Borders: An Interfaith Love Story” is a heartwarming story that beautifully captures the power of love and highlights the unyielding spirit of those who dare to reach for it. Although all the characters are fictional, this novel has real-world implications. Meet Joe Gold, a Jewish medical student sent by his father to the Zaatari Syrian refugee camp after a long, loving relationship had ended. There, he meets Alina Aziz, a young Sunni nurse with a deaf brother, Ishmael, who lost his hearing during a bombing in Syria. Their love defies the odds of religion and culture, blooming in a place where hope is scarce. Their intertwining lives and relationships force them to explore their feelings for their faith and their love for each other. This includes learning that their religions, Judaism and Islam, have many similarities. They dream of residing in the USA with Ishmael, and Alina makes it clear that she can’t leave Zaatari without her brother. However, immigration laws may prevent their hopes of a life together in America. Joe goes on a quest to navigate bureaucracy, combat family biases, and bridge the gap between the two faiths. He recruits his dad to assist him. Can Joe convince his parents that marrying a Muslim woman is all right? Will they marry? Will they be able to have a new life in the USA?
