Summary

In "The Kings of Israel and Judah," George Rawlinson presents a meticulous historical account that delves into the narratives of the monarchs who governed ancient Israel and Judah. Employing a scholarly yet accessible literary style, Rawlinson synthesizes biblical texts, archaeological findings, and historical interpretations, offering readers a comprehensive analysis of the socio-political landscapes of these two kingdoms. The work is situated within the broader context of 19th-century biblical scholarship, marked by Rawlinson'Äôs rigorous examination of the historical accuracy of scriptural accounts against contemporary historical narratives, enriching our understanding of this pivotal era in Jewish history. George Rawlinson, a distinguished English historian and scholar known for his expertise in Assyriology and biblical history, was deeply influenced by the archaeological discoveries of his time. His academic background and geographical travels, notably in the Near East, equipped him with insights into the complexities of ancient civilizations, informing his interpretations of the texts regarding the kings' reigns. Rawlinson'Äôs passion for bringing clarity to historical obscurities resonates throughout this work, as he strives to illuminate the connections between the rulers and their cultural legacies. "The Kings of Israel and Judah" is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of history, theology, and archaeology. Scholars, students, and general readers alike will find Rawlinson'Äôs blend of narrative and analysis not only illuminating but also indispensable for grasping the nuances of Israel'Äôs and Judah'Äôs royal histories, making it an essential addition to any historical library.

    In No Lasting City, Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt collects essays written over a twenty-five-year period that explore the relationship between theology, politics, and culture. Drawing on the Christian theological tradition and engaging thinkers from Augustine and Julian of Norwich to Max Weber and Michel de Certeau, Bauerschmidt sketches a picture of faithful engagement with politics and culture that has robustly Christological contours. The stories of Flannery O’Connor, the paintings of the Flemish Primitives, the curricula of medieval universities, and modern accounts of mystical experience all serve as points by which the path of God’s pilgrim city is charted, as a way both of understanding our past and present and of orienting us toward our hoped-for homeland.

    Breaking the Cycle of Silence is an introduction into child sexual abuse and child sexual abuse prevention. The latest statistics tell us that one out of three girls and one out of six boys will be sexually abused before the age of eighteen, destroying their lives in ways we can't even imagine. We also know that 90 percent of the time victims know their abuser.  
         Daniel Pearse is living proof of both these statistics. He and his brother were sent to live with a pedophile after their mother died. For nine years, Daniel suffered sexual, physical, emotional, mental and verbal abuse at the hands of his tormentor.  
    Like many abused children, Daniel then suffered in silence for decades as an adult. Now he's committed to stopping the cycle of abuse that causes so much pain. 
         Breaking the Cycle of Silence recounts Daniels harrowing story, gives his opinions on how to eliminate child sexual abuse, offers introductory educational  resources for the prevention of child sexual abuse. How to recognize child sexual abuse, disclosure and support for victims of child sexual abuse.  
         Breaking the Cycle of Silence proposes age-appropriate child sexual abuse prevention training and education in schools. It teaches children what is appropriate, shows adults the signs of abuse to look for, and offers sources for support for victims. With such training and education, we can identify and stop abusers, preventing them from claiming victim after victim for years.

    ECPA Top Shelf Book Cover Award
    Long before the words of the Bible were written, God's communication through the spoken word rang out loud and clear. Jesus in particular commissioned representatives to speak on his behalf even during the time of his earthly ministry. And yet today we are a reading culture. It is easy for modern Christians to take for granted that the Bible was handed down in written form, but the way we receive God's message is far different from how the original hearers would have heard it. These differences not only shape the way that we hear God's message to his people, but they put us at risk of misunderstanding his revelation.
    In Hear Ye the Word of the Lord, biblical scholar D. Brent Sandy explores how oral communication shaped the ways that biblical writers received God's message—and even more importantly, how the ancient and modern faithful receive it through hearing. Filled with helpful biblical insights related to oral communication and constructive ways for modern readers to become better hearers and performers of Scripture, Hear Ye the Word of the Lord provides a constructive way forward for readers interested in exploring how we can better hear God's Word.
