Sinopsis

Great Wall History explores the evolution of the Great Wall of China, highlighting its transformation from a defensive barrier into a global symbol deeply intertwined with Chinese history and cultural identity. The book challenges the notion of the Wall as a single entity, presenting it instead as a dynamic series of fortifications built across dynasties, adapting to changing military threats and technological advancements. Intriguingly, the Wall's construction involved an immense labor force, impacting China’s social and economic landscape, while its effectiveness varied against different invaders throughout history. 

 
The study progresses chronologically, starting with early earthen ramparts and culminating in the Ming Dynasty's iconic brick and stone structures. It analyzes the Wall's military role, its socio-economic impact, and its symbolic representation in art and culture. Drawing upon archaeological findings, historical chronicles, and military records, the book offers a unique perspective on the Wall as a reflection of China's relationship with the world. 

 
The fact-based approach offers insights into military strategy, wall construction, archaeology, and Chinese culture.

Beyond Her Yes - Reimagining...

Marisol Maldonado Rodriguez

Much pro-life ministry is focused on encouraging women to say yes to life rather than terminate their pregnancies. But what happens after that decision has been made? Who will provide that mother, who likely considered abortion because she could not see how she could afford to have a child, with the long-term emotional support, education, and guidance that will help her out of poverty? 
 
Economics and abortion are intrinsically linked, and if pro-life ministry is to make a real difference in the lives of women and families, it must expand its perspective beyond that initial yes in order to address the underlying problem of generational poverty. In Beyond Her Yes, cofounder of RENEW Life Center Marisol Maldonado Rodriguez helps you understand the full impact that poverty has on women making life decisions and then shows how a comprehensive approach to pro-life ministries can make a far greater impact. 
 
Saving the lives of the not-yet-born is just the first step. Discover how you can be part of saving entire families from a life of hardship and hard choices.
