Beschreibung

Dance in Politics explores the surprising and powerful connection between movement and political power, revealing how dance has been used throughout history for propaganda, national identity, and social control. The book argues that dance is not just an aesthetic pursuit but a political activity capable of shaping public opinion, reinforcing social norms, and even inciting or suppressing dissent.

 
For example, totalitarian regimes have utilized dance to glorify leaders and promote state ideology, illustrating its potential for manipulation.

 
Beginning with a theoretical framework that examines how movement conveys meaning, the book progresses through historical case studies. It analyzes how indigenous dance forms have been adapted to create unified national identities and investigates dance as a form of protest, such as in the anti-apartheid struggle.

 
By drawing connections with sociology, anthropology, and communication studies, Dance in Politics provides a nuanced understanding of how dance can bypass rational thought, appealing directly to emotions and fostering collective identity.

    Do you have a special needs child or know someone who is? Room at the Table: Encouraging Stories from Special Needs Families is rooted in the 2 Samuel 9 account of King David, who extended kindness to Jonathon's disabled son, Mephibosheth, and granted him a seat at the king's table. 
    Author Stephanie Pavlantos, the mother of Matthew with cerebral palsy and Starr Ayers, the mother of Ashley with Down syndrome, co-authored the collection of real-life experiences from families, guardians, caregivers, and individuals with special needs. These stories of hardship, courage, and blessings will encourage, enlighten, and equip readers for ministry in their communities. Room at the Table also contains a light-hearted look at life through the eyes of these extraordinary individuals. 
    Stephanie and Starr's vision is to increase awareness of the impact of mental and physical disabilities on families and caregivers. They aspire to promote understanding, diminish fears, and provide suggestions for ways people who know and love special needs individuals and families can minister to them. 
    Those with special needs are compassionate individuals who love freely and desire love in return. There is no need to fear them or allow their disabilities to intimidate you. As people made in God's image, their wants and needs are the same as yours and mine. 
    We are all children of God with special needs. Only Jesus knows the battles we have fought and won or lost, or the ones we are still fighting. When life or insensitive people hurt, wound, or leave us bitter, Jesus is the One who heals, loves, and restores us. 
    Room at the Table: Encouraging Stories from Special Needs Families will inspire and instill in you a greater desire to show the kindness of God to "one of the least of these." (Matthew 25:40 NIV). Whether you shed tears or laugh out loud, these stories will touch your heart.

    What would cause a proclaimed prophet to run away from everything he called home and dodge the 
    unyielding God of his tribe? Devoted to an uncompromising commitment to selfhood, Dr. Doug Wheeler 
    challenges the traditional assumption that Jonah was a miserable coward by examining him as a deeply 
    conflicted, courageous, and soulful man. With a poetic flair, Reimagining Jonah provokes and confounds 
    with language flavored by trauma and empathy, producing a richly contemplative and profoundly human 
    version of this well-known tale. 
    “Here is the story of Jonah like you have never heard it before! Doug Wheeler brings to his writing his 
    long wise years as a pastoral therapist. He knows that every story we tell — including Jonah’s — is thick 
    with subterranean transactions and freighted with background. It turns out that the story, in his gifted 
    artistry, is an account of being “born again” in freedom as a true self, engaged with the real world, and 
    partnered with the holy God who is well beyond all of our idols. Wheeler insists in an inescapable way on 
    our being participants in the narrative, with an earnest of good outcomes for our role in the story that is as 
    contemporary as it is ancient.” 
    — Walter Brueggemann, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, Columbia Theological Seminary
