    What would cause a proclaimed prophet to run away from everything he called home and dodge the 
    unyielding God of his tribe? Devoted to an uncompromising commitment to selfhood, Dr. Doug Wheeler 
    challenges the traditional assumption that Jonah was a miserable coward by examining him as a deeply 
    conflicted, courageous, and soulful man. With a poetic flair, Reimagining Jonah provokes and confounds 
    with language flavored by trauma and empathy, producing a richly contemplative and profoundly human 
    version of this well-known tale. 
    “Here is the story of Jonah like you have never heard it before! Doug Wheeler brings to his writing his 
    long wise years as a pastoral therapist. He knows that every story we tell — including Jonah’s — is thick 
    with subterranean transactions and freighted with background. It turns out that the story, in his gifted 
    artistry, is an account of being “born again” in freedom as a true self, engaged with the real world, and 
    partnered with the holy God who is well beyond all of our idols. Wheeler insists in an inescapable way on 
    our being participants in the narrative, with an earnest of good outcomes for our role in the story that is as 
    contemporary as it is ancient.”

    "Euthydemus" is a dialogue by Plato, believed to have been written in the mid-4th century BCE. The dialogue centers around two sophists, Euthydemus and Dionysodorus, who arrive in Athens and begin to teach their brand of argumentative philosophy to young students. Socrates, the main character and interlocutor in the dialogue, engages with the sophists and exposes the flaws in their reasoning. Throughout the dialogue, the sophists engage in a series of complex and often confusing arguments, using various techniques to confuse and deceive their opponents. Socrates attempts to show that their arguments are fundamentally flawed and that they rely on false premises and circular reasoning. Overall, "Euthydemus" is a powerful critique of the sophists and their brand of rhetoric, and it highlights the importance of critical thinking and logical reasoning in the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom. Read in English, unabridged.
