The Green Funeral - Honoring the...

Sequola Dawson, Dr. Jonathan C....

The care of creation is the responsibility of all Christians. 
Join Sequola Dawson in her insightful exploration of death rituals as she examines funerals, memorials, and burial practices, urging us to take ownership and recognize the vital interdependence between humanity, the earth, and all living organisms, advocating for a more ecologically responsible approach to caring for creation. 
 
The Green Funeral introduces readers to evolving attitudes toward death, the death care industry, and our faith. Dawson not only delves into burial traditions within the African American community but outlines innovative practices suited for a new generation of multicultural churchgoers and those who do not identify with any religious tradition. 
Dawson sheds light on the often-ignored economics behind the funeral industry, challenging us to consider the implications of "putting money in the ground." Many of us are unprepared for the death of a loved one, leaving us to ponder who bears the burden of caring for the deceased. With thousands of dollars spent on burials, Dawson argues for a more responsible approach--one that acknowledges the environmental impact of traditional practices and seeks to honor our loved ones without compromising the land they leave behind. 
Dawson's unique perspective on death stems from her experiences in academia, the military, family life, and engineering, as well as her journey as a cancer survivor. She artfully weaves together the languages of all these worlds collectively raising a voice for better creation care--even in death.

Unrepeatable Beauty: Inner...

Anonimo

Unrepeatable Beauty is a ceremonial invitation to recalibrate how we understand health, empowerment, and the female body. 
It dismantles the emotional architecture behind breast cancer— 
not through confrontation, but through clarity. 
This edition names what medicine often misses: 
• That breasts are not burden baskets 
• That emotional labor is not invisible 
• That sovereignty is not a side effect 
Through poetic diagnostics, mythic insight, and scroll-grade witnessing, Lena Elisabet invites readers to explore: 
• The biology of belief and the science of emotional containment 
• The cultural script of survival, gratitude, and reconstruction 
• The financial architecture of the breast cancer industry 
• The possibility that joy, boundaries, and inner radiance may prevent disease before it begins 
This is not a guide to surviving. 
It’s a guide to not collapsing in the first place. 
Can female empowerment and sovereignty cure breast cancer before it develops? 
This book doesn’t answer the question. 
It dignifies it.

The Scariest Planets We've Ever...

John Harpoon

The universe is filled with wonders, but some of its most fascinating worlds are also the most terrifying. While Earth offers stability, warmth, and an atmosphere that sustains life, countless exoplanets lie scattered across the galaxy with conditions that defy imagination. These distant worlds are not just inhospitable—they are the stuff of nightmares.  
  
The discovery of these hostile planets has revealed just how extreme nature can be. Some are scorched by relentless heat, while others are locked in frozen desolation. Toxic gases, deadly storms, and crushing gravity make these worlds far more menacing than anything we might encounter on Earth. Exploring these terrifying planets is not just about uncovering their horrors; it’s about understanding the universe itself.  
  
One key factor that determines a planet’s hostility is its proximity to its star. Planets that orbit too close are often scorched by intense radiation, while those too far away freeze in endless darkness. But even planets in stable orbits can become dangerous if their atmospheres are packed with poisonous chemicals or if they experience violent weather patterns. Some worlds are plagued by hurricane-force winds that rip across the surface, while others endure storms of molten glass that shred everything in their path.
