The Clash of Ideals

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopse

In a time of deep political division, America stands at a crossroads. Red and Blue America have become increasingly polarized, with little common ground and seemingly insurmountable differences.

This book delves into the causes and consequences of this polarization, exploring the role of political parties, the media, and social media in shaping public opinion. It examines the impact of political polarization on our democracy and our ability to solve the challenges facing our nation.

At the heart of the divide is a clash of values and beliefs. Red America, represented by conservatives, emphasizes traditional values such as patriotism, individualism, and free markets. Blue America, represented by liberals, emphasizes progressive values such as social justice, equality, and environmental protection.

These competing values often lead to gridlock in government, as politicians struggle to find common ground. This gridlock can have serious consequences, preventing progress on important issues such as healthcare, education, and climate change.

Political polarization also has a corrosive effect on our democracy. It makes it difficult for citizens to have productive conversations about politics, as they are often unwilling to listen to those who hold different views. This can lead to a breakdown in civil discourse and an increase in political extremism.

This book is a call for unity. It is a reminder that we are all Americans, regardless of our political beliefs. It is a plea for us to find common ground, to recognize that we share the same values and aspirations.

Only then can we heal our divisions and move forward as a united country.

Creation and Christian Ethics -...

Dennis P. Hollinger

Creation is a foundational pillar of the biblical storyline, yet it plays little role in contemporary evangelical ethics. Seeking to correct this oversight, Dennis Hollinger employs the creation story and creation themes throughout Scripture as a foundation for Christian ethics. 
 
After demonstrating why creation is theologically significant and important for Christian ethics, Hollinger develops major creation paradigms that provide ethical guidance on a wide range of issues, including money, sex, power, racism, creation care, social institutions, and artificial intelligence, among many others. Creation and Christian Ethics shows throughout that the triune God creates from love, and in that creation are moral designs for humanity's journey in God's world. 
 
Professors and students of Christian ethics will find this a valuable resource for the classroom, while pastors and church leaders will benefit from personal and small-group study.

You Got In! Now What? - 100...

James T. Hamilton

Once you've been admitted to college, the next step is to develop a strategy of how to find your best life there. But for decades, Professor James T. Hamilton has seen students struggle with their college journey. Some avoid challenging experiences, follow a path of familiar expectations, and rely on shortcuts. Others aim for perfection, ignore their friends and health, labor over what subjects to study, and neglect spending time outside the classroom. The pressure to make college valuable and interesting can feel overwhelming. 
 
 
 
If only students could learn how others have navigated these challenges. You could ask alums to look back on friendships and college-to-career paths and provide advice. Now, you don't have to wish because You Got In! Now What? tackles the burning questions you have. 
 
 
 
Hamilton designs lessons to help you find purpose, manage time, maintain friendships and family relationships, stay physically and mentally healthy, and choose classes, majors, and careers. Each lesson is accompanied by an essay based on research and reflections from students, alums, and professors to provide observations for how you can embrace the best that college has to offer. With these insights, you'll explore new ideas, meet people, have adventures, and most importantly, beyond just earning a degree, get an education.
