  The Cure of Souls -...

  Hypocrisy replaces virtue when men cover their sins rather than confess them to God. This is all too common when men do not preach and practice a Biblical doctrine of confession. The challenge is first to restore the meaning of confession as taught in the Scriptures. As long as confession is seen as a Romanist doctrine, we have no hope of recovering this vital aspect of Christianity. 
  In this path-breaking volume R. J. Rushdoony examines the Biblical teaching on confession and sets it over against the errors of Romanism and the neo-Freudianism of modern Christian counseling. Despite the subject matter this book is remarkably readable and is sure to empower both clergy and laity as they discover the powerful tool of Biblical confession.

  The Sociology of Everyday Life -...

  Everyday life is often taken for granted, filled with routines and interactions that seem ordinary. However, sociology reveals that even the most mundane moments are shaped by broader social forces. From morning commutes to casual conversations, every action we take is influenced by cultural norms, social structures, and historical contexts. Understanding everyday life through sociology allows us to see how society operates at both individual and collective levels, uncovering patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed. 
  Sociologists study everyday life to explore how individuals interact, how social norms are maintained, and how power dynamics influence our behaviors. The interactions we engage in, whether greeting a coworker or ordering coffee at a café, follow unspoken social rules. These rules, shaped by culture and history, guide our behaviors without us always being aware of them. For example, the way we dress, speak, and behave in public is dictated by societal expectations, which can vary across different cultures and historical periods. By analyzing these seemingly simple actions, sociology provides insight into how larger social structures function. 
  The concept of the “sociological imagination,” introduced by C. Wright Mills, is central to understanding everyday life. It encourages individuals to connect their personal experiences to larger societal issues. For instance, someone struggling with job insecurity may view their situation as a personal failure. However, from a sociological perspective, their experience can be linked to broader economic trends, shifts in labor markets, and corporate policies. This shift in perspective helps individuals understand that personal troubles are often rooted in social structures rather than isolated events.

  The Fifth History of Man

  MD John Bershof

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Fifth History of Man has a few parting shots at viruses but mostly continues with the world of parasites, from tick disease that tick us off, Old Lyme, Connecticut and Lyme disease, toxoplasmosis, Crazy Cat Lady and her clowder of cats, then on into a discussion of the avatar of parasites: malaria. Our travels will venture down into the valley: Valley Girls, Valspeak, Valley Fever, fungus and fungal infections. We’ll jump into the biology of evolution, Darwin, Huxley and the great debates, the geology of earthquakes, volcanos, the Ring of Fire, and Johnny Cash, and then through the homos: Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Homo sapiens, and once the dust cleared how the opposable thumbs, walking erect, and bigger brains left one man standing, one woman, too. No discussion of human history can leave out the G.O.A.T. of French history, heck, of European history; the man, the legend, Napoleon Bonaparte, loved and admired by everyone, even his enemies. Our path will take us into war & military, World War I versus the 1918 Swine Flu, some Russian history and how Stalin got Lenin wrong.

  This book contains 6 titles of different hobbies to explore: 
  Bird Watching - Bird watching, also known as birding, is a recreational activity where individuals observe and study birds in their natural habitats. It can range from casual observation in one's backyard to more serious pursuits involving travel to specific locations to see rare or interesting bird species. 
  Genealogy - Genealogy delves into the complex web of family relationships and historical contexts that shape individual and collective identities. It often begins with an inquiry into one's own family background, such as understanding the origins and branches of one’s family tree. Researchers use various resources, including birth, marriage, and death records, census data, military records, and immigration documents, to trace the lineage and connections of family members across generations. 
  Larping - Live Action Role Playing, commonly known as LARP, is a form of role-playing game where participants embody their characters physically and interact within a structured narrative. Unlike traditional tabletop role-playing games, LARP involves players dressing in costumes, using props, and engaging in live-action scenarios that unfold in real-time. 
  Metal Detecting - Metal detecting involves using a metal detector, an electronic device designed to find metal objects nearby. These devices vary in form, from handheld wands to large industrial machines. 
  Podcasting - Podcasting has revolutionized the way we consume content, offering a platform for voices from all walks of life to share their stories, expertise, and passions with a global audience.
