  A Christian Perspective on the Joys of Reading 
   
   
   
  In today's technology-driven culture, reading has become a lost art. With smartphones offering information at the tap of a finger, reading a book is often seen as a tedious and outdated activity. Christians are not immune to this problem, as many find it hard to read books—even the Bible—consistently and attentively. Recovering the Lost Art of Reading addresses these timely issues by exploring the importance of reading generally as well as studying the Bible as literature, giving practical suggestions along the way. In this helpful guide, Leland Ryken and Glenda Faye Mathes encourage a new generation of readers to overcome the notion of reading as a duty and learn to see it as a delight.

  The moderate American church is disappearing--and it's taking democracy with it. 
   
  Many people assume evangelicals are Republican, Democrats aren't religious, and moderate Christians no longer exist. But that wasn't always true. In the 1980s, evangelicals were just as likely sit beside a Democrat as a Republican at church. 
   
  What changed? 
   
  In this groundbreaking book, data scientist Ryan Burge reveals 
   
  ● how religious polarization reshaped America and caused many to leave church, 
  ● why faith became an identity in the culture wars, 
  ● the hidden truth that Americans are more moderate than the media suggests, 
  ● why polarization in our churches affects all aspects of social connection and community, and 
  ● a path forward for churches to bridge political divides. 
   
  This book reveals how political polarization transformed American Christianity over the past fifty years and why this divide impacts every aspect of society. Drawing on extensive data, Burge shows how churches that embraced conservative politics during the culture wars drove away millions of moderate and liberal Christians, hollowing out congregations that once bridged political divides. 
   
  Burge makes a compelling case that America needs churches now more than ever--not as political battlegrounds but as spaces where people of different backgrounds and beliefs can come together. Blending personal stories with rigorous, up-to-date research, The Vanishing Church offers hope that faith communities can help heal our divisions and restore the common ground essential for democracy to thrive.

  Frederick Stewart, born in Buchan, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, was the first headmaster of the HK Govt Central School for Boys (now Queen's College) and second Inspector of Schools. He was considered by contemporaries as the Founder of Hong Kong Government Education. At the Central School, his consistent policy was to educate pupils in Western knowledge, while preserving their Chinese identity, and he insisted on equal time for Chinese and English studies. A career change was forced by the intervention of Governor John Pope Hennessy who wished the teaching of English to be given prominence. Subsequently, Stewart, a modest and unassuming man, popular within Hong Kong and also at the Colonial Office, became Police Magistrate, Registrar General, then Colonial Secretary, acting as Governor of Hong Kong on several occasions. By the end of his life, Stewart’s intimate knowledge of Hong Kong was considered unequalled among non-Chinese in Hong Kong at the time. 
  "Dr Bickley's life of Frederick Stewart is beautifully written, eminently readable, and at times moving." — Lady Saltoun. 
  "To all intents and purposes, Stewart's life and work was lost to posterity until the publication of this biography — the product of some eight years of devoted research which spanned the globe. The end product is certainly worth the effort. We need more studies of this type if we are to understand fully the complexities of colonial rule. The life stories of men like Stewart highlight both the high and low points of colonial service, the personal sacrifices that were often made and the legacies left behind.[I] thoroughly enjoyed this book." — Clive Whitehead, University of Western Australia, Int. J. of Lifelong Education. 
  "Surely few will dispute her contention that Stewart's legacy to modern Hong Kong has become something of enduring value and interest." University of Edinburgh T. J. BARRON

  A lot of people have a short attention span, but there are many fascinating stories that should be shared. In The Way I Heard It (2019), TV and podcast host Mike Rowe has written down thirty-five short stories just as he would tell them aloud, full of meandering, exaggerations, wry humor, and accommodations for pesky facts. His subjects range from Beethoven to the baker on the Titanic. They include famous actors, artists, inventors, statues, a space dog, even Adolf Hitler. Each story is accompanied by another from Mike’s life and career, which he calls the glue that holds them all together.
