  What is Critical Race Theory? 
   
   
   
  It may be one of the most widely referenced issues of the day, but it's also one of the least understood. In its translation from the academic world to the general public, Critical Race Theory (CRT) has inaccurately become a catch-all term for anything related to race. But what does it actually mean, and how should Christians engage it? 
   
   
   
  Ed Uszynski—whose PhD in American culture studies navigated readings in Marxism, Critical Theory, and Critical Race Theory—carefully unpacks what critical race theorists seek to accomplish and what Christians can learn from them. Uszynski generously explores CRT's roots, context, and central tenets, revealing how its insights are used and distorted but also how they might benefit the church. With responsible answers to legitimate concerns, Uszynski goes beyond the surface to provide a reliable path of just discernment and cultural engagement.

  Family of Spies - A Cold War...

  Steve B. Davis

  In the summer of 1950, federal agents arrived at a modest apartment in lower Manhattan and arrested an electrical engineer named Julius Rosenberg on charges of passing atomic bomb secrets to the Soviet Union. Six weeks later, they came for his wife Ethel — a seamstress and mother of two small boys aged seven and three — and took her from the courthouse door in circumstances that the FBI's own internal documents would later reveal had nothing to do with the strength of the evidence against her and everything to do with what the government needed her to be.
   
  Three years later, on the evening of June 19, 1953, the United States government executed them both.
   
  
   
  What happened in between — the fabricated testimony, the compromised judge, the private conversations between prosecutor and bench before a single witness had been sworn, the brother who sent his sister to the electric chair and later admitted he had lied — is one of the most documented, most contested, and most consequential miscarriages of justice in the history of American law.  
   
  
   
  Family of Spies is the complete, documented account of what the United States government did to Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, why it did it, and what the record it left behind demands of everyone who reads it. 
   
  The verdict was returned in 1951. The questions it failed to answer have never stopped accumulating.

  A skilled storyteller, Holmes presents a riveting account of the wars, intrigues and personalities that contributed to Rome's decline, with entire chapters devoted to single battles.' Kirkus Reviews 
   
   
   
  Why did Rome Fall? 
   
   
   
  In this gripping retelling of one of the most momentous chapters in history, Nick Holmes presents a new interpretation of an old story. The fate of Rome was decided not just by emperors, soldiers, and barbarians but also by an environmental disaster. 
   
   
   
  A catastrophic megadrought on the Asian steppes in the fourth century AD forced the migration of entire peoples—Huns, Goths, Vandals, and others—west into the Roman Empire. They met an empire weakened from war with Persia. Rome's misfortunes multiplied as it made tactical errors on the battlefield. Civil war, religious unrest, and political incompetence compounded a worsening situation. The result was one of the greatest disasters in the ancient world—the sack of Rome by the Goths in AD 410.

  The ruins of ancient Athens, Luxor, and Rome are familiar cornerstones of world history, visited by travelers from across the globe. But what about the cities that have dropped off the map? Where are they, and what can they tell us about our past? 
   
   
   
  In this compendium of forgotten cities, Philip Matyszak explores the trials, tribulations, and triumphs these cities faced. Lost Cities of the Ancient World brings to life the sites and settlements across Europe, the Middle East, and beyond that time forgot, from the sunken city of Pavlopetri in the Mediterranean to the deep cave dwellings of Derinkuyu in Turkey. Four thousand years of human history are covered in this volume, offering unique insights into forgotten cities and ways of life. 
   
   
   
  Matyszak reveals a dynamic network of peoples and cultures who fought and traded between themselves, exchanging inventions, ideas, and philosophies, with the result that people as far apart as Catalhöyükin Turkey and Skara Brae in Scotland's Orkney Islands shared a common heritage. By examining the motivations that first drew populations to gather and settle together, as well as the challenges that led to their cities' abandonment, this striking and often surprising book offers us a fresh perspective on our urban origins.
