They believe you can value anything (yes, anything!), whether that’s a daily latte, fancy dinners out, or vacations. But, despite what social media is saying, you don’t value everything.

  In their debut book, they share a plan for sifting through what’s not important to find the things you truly love spending money on. You’ll learn how toAnalyze your current spending and identify what you valuePrioritize your values when you can’t afford everythingIdentify the root causes of your impulse spendingMake your habit changes stick long-term

  O Reader, so special and dear!  
  Perhaps, in a corner, you sit today,  
  spirit broken, tears rolled, you sway.  
  A grain of sand, swept off, só confused;  
  struggling, searching, your heart suffered, bruised!  
  Many uncertainties weigh on your soul-  
  unexpected illness, violence, death a toll.  
  May poetic words ease your heart's silent plea-  
  heavenly comfort to help you be free!  
  To relax and smile through both joy and despair,  
  read Isaiah 43, find solace in prayer!  
  And may that tiny grain of silica becomes bright,  
  unfolding like quartz, bringing beauty and light!  
  Wishes from my heart, 
  Johanita

  How should Christians faithfully engage with politics in an increasingly polarized and complex society?
  Faithful Politics by Miranda Zapor Cruz offers a thoughtful and balanced road map for navigating this challenging question. Rather than prescribing easy answers or simplistic checklists, this book invites readers into a reflective exploration of ten distinct approaches to Christian political engagement, providing meaningful tools for deeper understanding.
  In this book Cruz guides readers in forming a vision of citizenship that brings Christian convictions into political engagement while avoiding common pitfalls. Cruz also provides a measured, nonpartisan overview of different ways Christians have approached political participation. These ten views represent a range of theological approaches to the relationship between the kingdom of God and the country, including Anabaptist, social gospel, principled pluralist, and Christian nationalist. Cruz describes strengths and weaknesses of each view, with a focus on Christian faithfulness.
  In Faithful Politics, you'll find
  
  - Thorough Scholarship: Presents ten distinct approaches to politics, ranging from separatist to dominionist and more
  - A Balanced Presentation: Offers a nonpartisan perspective while addressing strengths and weaknesses
  - Scriptural and Theological Insights: Establishes guiding principles grounded in Scripture to help shape faithful political participation
  Cruz observes that in the United States Christians with shared faith convictions can often reach differing political conclusions. However, Scripture and theology provide guiding principles that shape our thinking and remind us that our ultimate citizenship is in the kingdom of God. Faithful Politics invites readers to learn from Christians of the past as we discern how to be salt and light in our own time and place.

  World War I: An Enthralling...

  World War I is infamous for revolutionizing modern warfare as we know it. 
  It is well known that World War I was kicked off by the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The world superpowers engaged in the bloodiest conflict in history at that time, with millions of casualties on either side. World War I transformed the socio-political landscape of the early 20th century and shaped the lives of countless people for decades to come.  
  However, there is much more to World War I than Franz Ferdinand’s assassination and the clash of the Entente and Central Powers. It was a conflict deeply rooted in hateful rivalries of the world’s most powerful states and came as a somewhat logical conclusion to the endless balancing and political maneuvering of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. And it would change the course of history forever.  
  This audiobook will dive into the Great War, exploring what caused it, how it unfolded, and its short- and long-term consequences. Here are some of the things you will learn about in this audiobook:  
  The long nineteenth century and how it affected the political landscapeGermany and Italy’s unification The state of European power politics New technological advancements that shaped the war The Austro-Hungarian problem and the start of WWI Military activities in all theaters of the war
