    Have you ever looked at the effects of climate change and the apathy of so many around you and wondered, "What are we missing here?" 
 
 
 
Climate activist Kyle Meyaard-Schaap understands this feeling from personal experience. But in his years of speaking to and equipping Christians to work for climate action, he's seen the trend begin to shift. More and more young Christians are waking up to the realities of climate change. They want to help, but they're not sure how. 
 
 
 
Through stories from the field, theological and scriptural exploration, and practical advice, Meyaard-Schaap offers hope to Christians paralyzed by the scale of the crisis, helping us turn our paralysis into meaningful action. Following Jesus in a Warming World is a field guide for Christian climate action—one grounded not in a sense of guilt or drudgery, but in the joy of caring for creation.

    A transformative perspective on animal afterlife bridging theological reflection and moral actionWhat happens to our beloved companion animals after death? Do they and other animals have a place in the divine plan?A Heaven for Animals offers a groundbreaking theological rationale for the inclusion of animals in heaven, challenging conventional thinking about the role animals have in God's plan. Based on Biblical evidence and the doctrine of the Catholic Church, Christopher Steck reveals a radical vision of divine grace that extends far beyond human-centric perspectives, demonstrating how animals are intrinsically part of Christ's redemptive work.Accessible to both theological scholars and thoughtful listeners seeking deeper spiritual insights, this book provides a rigorous and compassionate framework for understanding the sacredness of all creation and the creatures within it. A Heaven for Animals invites listeners to reimagine their ethical responsibilities, suggesting that our treatment of animals should strive to reflect an anticipatory vision of God's inclusive kingdom―a transformative perspective that bridges theological reflection and moral action.

    What happens when you drop an agnostic Jewish surgeon in a century-old Catholic hospital, where the doctor meets dogma and falls for the CEO? A nun, for God’s sake.Dr. Martin Fischer, a white-coated Quixote, tilts his scalpel at the bloated underbelly of U.S. healthcare and fights for his patients. His only weapons are surgical skill and a pesky sense of righteous indignation that’s driving everyone nuts—including Marty.As he takes on a callous multi-billion-dollar medical corporation, a mercenary surgical group, and the thoroughly corrupt CFO of St. Salacious, an unplanned pregnancy threatens to excommunicate the entire hospital. Can they really do that? It’s either stress or God who intervenes. Did Jesus just wink at him from the cross?

    In St. Anselm of Canterbury's foundational theological work, Why God Became Man (Cur Deus Homo), delve into a profound and meticulously reasoned exploration of the Incarnation and Atonement. Written in the 11th century as a dialogue, Anselm addresses the fundamental question of why God, being omnipotent, chose to redeem humanity through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, rather than by a simple act of divine will. He masterfully articulates the satisfaction theory of atonement, arguing that humanity's sin incurred an infinite debt to God's honor, a debt only an infinite being—God Himself—could repay. This seminal text continues to be a cornerstone of Christian theology, offering timeless insights into the nature of God, sin, justice, and salvation.
