  Patriots Before Revolution - The...

  The American revolutionaries—George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John and Abigail Adams—called themselves Patriots. But what exactly did it mean to be a Patriot? Historian Amy Watson locates the origins of Patriotism in British politics of the early eighteenth century, showing that the label "Patriot" was first adopted by a network of British politicians with radical ideas about the principles and purpose of the British Empire. The early Patriots' ideological mission was not American independence but, rather, imperial reform: Patriots sought to create a British Empire that was militant, expansionist, confederal, and free.Over the course of the next half century, these British reformers used print media and grassroots mobilization efforts to build an empire-wide political party with adherents in London, Edinburgh, New York City, and the new colony of Georgia. While building this party, the Patriots' advocacy drew Britons into a series of violent political conflicts over taxes and civil liberty, as well as three expansive global wars, the War of Jenkins' Ear (1739–48), the War of the Austrian Succession (1740–48), and the Seven Years' War (1756–63). Patriot ideas and organizations came to divide Britons on increasingly sharp political lines, laying the groundwork for the revolutionary decades to come.

  The Secure Soul - Finding Inner...

  A secure soul is built from the inside out. This book will guide you through the inner work of restoring your own sense of safety and trust—anchored in God's unshakable love—so that your foundation for all other connections becomes steady and strong. From this place, you can approach every relationship, every loss, and every new beginning with confidence. Even when trust has been broken externally, it can still be anchored securely within. 
  The ache of disconnection isn't only about feeling unseen by a parent, distant from a partner, or excluded by a friend. It's not just a byproduct of busy lives or too many notifications. It runs deeper. It's a spiritual ache that reminds us: we long for a connection that reaches beneath our defenses and restores us from the inside out. 
  Attachment isn't just something that happens between people—it's something that also happens within yourself. The same dynamics of fear and safety, pursuit and withdrawal, need and shame, get played out inside your own inner world. 
  When we begin to notice, tend, and nourish that inner ecosystem—gently, patiently, and in the presence of something greater than ourselves—we begin to re-cultivate something sacred: A home within ourselves. A secure base from the inside out. And a connectedness with God. 
  In The Secure Soul, Dr. Cook shows you how to:practice the ongoing rhythm of connection through learning how to recognize distance and be equipped to reconnect to the center of loving presence.recognize—the moment when you've shifted out of connection into anxiety, overwhelmedness, fear, distance, or shut down.return—to the sacred center within, to God's presence, to Love itself.identify the controller, shadow, and younger parts of yourself that make up the landscape of your soul.cultivate an inner sense of belonging and connectedness by diagnosing where you have become disconnected from your own soul. 
    
  Dr. Cook paints an intimate picture of what secure attachment can look like in your real life—not as a psychological label, but as an intimate invitation that is alive in every relationship, every silence, every longing, always unfolding in every moment you're alive. And it starts not only in the space between us, but deep inside your own soul.

  The Fall of Rome - The Birth of...

  At its height, the Roman Empire stood as one of the most powerful and influential civilizations in history. Spanning continents, from the windswept moors of Britain to the deserts of Egypt, Rome’s reach seemed boundless. The strength of the empire lay not only in its vast military conquests but in the complexity and efficiency of its administrative systems. Roman law, engineering, and political structure provided a level of organization that allowed a diverse collection of peoples and cultures to function under a single imperial banner. The Pax Romana, a period of relative peace lasting over two centuries, demonstrated Rome’s ability to maintain stability across its vast territories. 
  Roman culture was a dynamic blend of traditions inherited from earlier civilizations and innovations of its own. Latin served as the unifying language, enabling administration and communication across the empire. The arts flourished, with literature, sculpture, and architecture reaching impressive heights. From the poetry of Virgil and Ovid to the engineering marvels of aqueducts and roads, Roman achievements stood as symbols of sophistication. The grandeur of public spaces like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum reflected the empire’s emphasis on civic life and the power of the state. 
  Governance played a key role in the success of Rome. A highly structured bureaucracy allowed the empire to manage its provinces effectively, while a legal system based on Roman law continued to influence Western societies long after the empire’s decline. Though emperors held supreme power, the Senate, magistrates, and various local officials contributed to a layered political system that managed both urban centers and rural territories. Roman citizenship, which could be extended to people across the empire, fostered a sense of unity and shared identity among diverse populations.
