  Create a Gospel-Centered Rule of Life
  Habits form us more than we form them. The modern world is a machine of invisible habits, forming us into anxious, busy people. We yearn for the freedom of the gospel but remain shackled by our screens and exhausted by our routines. How can we truly break free, find rest, and form a life that aligns our habits with our foundational beliefs?
  According to Justin Earley, the answer is a rule of life. The Common Rule's four daily and four weekly habits transform frazzled days into lives of love for God and neighbor.
  In The Common Rule, you'll find
  
  - doable, life-giving practices to find freedom and rest for your soul,
  - expanded content including study guide questions for individual reflection and group discussion, and
  - practical, accessible resources for building habits that bring life.
  Take the first step toward a life of intentionality and discover how simple, meaningful habits can transform your everyday moments into a rhythm of peace and purpose.
  "Full of glimpses of the life we were made for, and the simple choices that can take us in that direction. The habits described here, and the wisdom they embody, are the path toward sanity in a frenetic world." – Andy Crouch, author of The Tech-Wise Family and Culture Making
  "With his precise plan, Earley instructs Christians on how to create an environment for a healthy spiritual life." – Publishers Weekly Review, February 2023

  'Generous, moving and alive. A gift' - Tim Dee, author of Greenery
  'Intelligent, thought-provoking and always, always interesting' - Cal Flyn, author of Islands of Abandonment
  'Smyth writes with warmth and engaging perception about our relationship and understanding of the natural world on our doorsteps' - Jon Dunn, author of The Glitter in the Green
  'Fresh and tender and playful' - Patrick Galbraith, author of In Search of One Last Song
  Weren't they richer, rock pools, wasn't the seashore busier, when I was a kid?
  
  Richard Smyth had always been drawn to the natural world, but when he became a father he found a new joy and a new urgency in showing his kids the everyday wild things around them. As he and his children explore rockpools in Whitley Bay, or the woods and moors near his Yorkshire home, he imagines the world they might inhabit as they grow up.
  
  Through different objects discovered on their wanderings - a beech leaf, a jay feather, a limpetshell - Smyth examines his own past as well as that of the early natural historians, weaving together history, memoir, and environmentalism to form a new kind of nature writing: one that asks both what we have lost, and what we have yet to find.

  Silicon Sentience: The Looming...

  The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) marks one of the most groundbreaking and transformative developments in human history. From the early musings of philosophers to the creation of machines that can learn and adapt, AI has emerged as a force with the potential to reshape every aspect of society. The origins of AI can be traced back to the mid-20th century when scientists began to explore the idea of creating machines that could simulate human intelligence. However, it wasn’t until the invention of electronic computers in the 1940s that the possibility of artificial intelligence became a tangible pursuit. 
  The term "artificial intelligence" was coined in 1956 by John McCarthy, a computer scientist who is often regarded as one of the fathers of AI. This period marked the beginning of the AI revolution, fueled by a combination of new computing technology and an increasing interest in mimicking human cognitive functions. Early AI research focused on developing algorithms that could perform tasks like solving mathematical problems, playing chess, or even translating languages. These early experiments laid the groundwork for the sophisticated AI systems that followed. 
  In the 1960s and 1970s, AI research gained momentum as researchers developed expert systems that could make decisions in specialized fields like medicine and engineering. These systems relied on a set of rules and logical reasoning to emulate the decision-making abilities of human experts. However, progress was slow, and AI experienced what is often referred to as the "AI winter," a period of reduced funding and interest in the field, which occurred in the 1970s and 1980s.

  The Urban-Rural Divide -...

  The urban-rural divide is a concept that encompasses the differences between urban and rural areas in terms of population, economy, infrastructure, social services, and quality of life. As the world has rapidly urbanized in the past few centuries, the divide has grown wider, shaping the way people experience and interact with the world around them. Understanding the urban-rural divide requires looking not just at geographical distinctions but also at the historical, social, and economic forces that have led to the creation of these disparities. 
  At its core, the urban-rural divide refers to the uneven distribution of resources, opportunities, and access to services. Urban areas, often characterized by their dense population, advanced infrastructure, and proximity to economic opportunities, tend to attract people from rural areas in search of better livelihoods. On the other hand, rural areas are often defined by their smaller populations, agricultural economies, and more limited access to healthcare, education, and technological advancements. Over time, this gap has widened as cities have grown into centers of global commerce, culture, and innovation, leaving rural communities to face challenges such as depopulation, economic stagnation, and a lack of essential services. 
  This divide is not just a modern phenomenon. Historically, the urban-rural relationship has been shaped by factors like industrialization, the rise of agriculture, and migration patterns. During the Industrial Revolution, for example, many people from rural areas flocked to cities in search of work, marking a key moment in the expansion of the urban-rural divide. These migration patterns have continued in the present day, with rural populations in many countries continuing to shrink as more people move to urban centers for better prospects.
