For Christians who know the pain, isolation, and loss of identity that comes with the ongoing struggle to be seen in churches and institutions full of barriers to belonging, you are not alone. Sometimes it can feel easier to walk away from faith completely. But there is another way. When it feels as though there’s no place left to belong, Jesus invites us into a love that knows no bounds and a community that truly liberates.In this hope-filled book, author Rohadi Nagassar brings the margins to the center to help readers rediscover a reality of love, belonging, and beauty through the journey of deconstructing, decolonizing, and reclaiming faith. For those on the margins struggling to find belonging, for everyone who wants to join in building radically inclusive communities where all people can live fully in their own skin—now begins a journey to find this freedom.

  The Great Famine of the 14th...

  The Great Famine of the 14th century did not erupt suddenly; it was the result of a long-simmering crisis deeply rooted in environmental, agricultural, and demographic factors. Europe, by the early 1300s, was already teetering on the edge of unsustainability. For decades, the continent had experienced a population boom, pushing communities to cultivate every inch of arable land. Marginal lands—forests, wetlands, and rocky hills—were cleared to make room for crops, but the soil was thin and poorly suited for long-term farming. This overuse exhausted the land, reducing yields and straining food supplies even in stable years. 
  At the same time, Europe entered a period of climatic deterioration now known as the Little Ice Age. Beginning in the early 14th century, temperatures across the continent began to drop slightly but consistently. This seemingly minor shift had devastating effects on agriculture. Cooler, wetter summers shortened the growing season and increased rainfall, which flooded fields and rotted seeds before they could sprout. Harsh winters extended well into the spring, delaying planting and shrinking the harvest window. These erratic weather patterns culminated in a series of catastrophic crop failures between 1315 and 1317. 
  Adding to these environmental pressures was a demographic crisis. By the turn of the century, Europe’s population had grown to levels unseen in centuries. Villages were packed, and food demand had reached unprecedented highs. Yet agricultural output could not keep pace. The productivity of medieval farming methods had plateaued, and innovations were slow to arrive. The result was a fragile system stretched beyond its limits. Even a single poor harvest could lead to hunger; multiple bad years spelled disaster.

  Cult Behavior - Psychological...

  Cults have existed throughout history, often drawing in intelligent, well-meaning individuals who become deeply entangled in their belief systems. Despite the common misconception that only the weak or naive fall into cults, research shows that anyone can be susceptible under the right conditions. Cults use psychological techniques to manipulate and control their members, fostering dependence, obedience, and unwavering loyalty. Understanding the psychology behind cult behavior is key to recognizing and protecting oneself from such groups.  
  One of the defining characteristics of a cult is its ability to influence thought and behavior through intense social pressure. Cults typically create an environment where members feel an emotional and psychological connection that overrides rational thinking. This is often achieved by isolating individuals from outside influences, reinforcing a sense of exclusivity, and instilling the belief that the group holds the ultimate truth. Once a person begins to accept these ideas, they are more likely to dismiss opposing viewpoints, even in the face of clear evidence. 
  Another psychological mechanism that cults exploit is the human need for belonging and purpose. Many people who join cults are searching for meaning, security, or a sense of identity. Cults capitalize on these needs by offering a tight-knit community, a higher purpose, and a leader who presents themselves as wise, enlightened, or even divine. This emotional connection makes it difficult for members to question the group's motives, as doing so would threaten their newfound sense of belonging.
