  The Second Book of Timothy is one of the three pastoral epistles traditionally attributed to Paul the Apostle. Addressed to Timothy, a fellow missionary it is traditionally considered to be the last epistle he wrote before his death. Although the pastorals are written under Paul's name, they are different from his other epistles, and since the early 19th century, scholars have increasingly seen them as the work of an unknown student of Paul's doctrine. They do not address Paul's common themes, such as the believers' unity with Christ, and they reflect a church hierarchy that is more organized and defined than the church was in Paul's time.

  Forgiveness - An Alternative...

  A deeply researched and poignant reflection on the practice of forgiveness in an unforgiving world 
   
   
   
  In this sensitive and probing book, Matthew Ichihashi Potts explores the complex moral terrain of forgiveness, which he claims has too often served as a salve to the conscience of power rather than as an instrument of healing or justice. Though forgiveness is often linked with reconciliation or the abatement of anger, Potts resists these associations, asserting instead that forgiveness is simply the refusal of retaliatory violence through practices of penitence and grief. It is an act of mourning irrevocable wrong, of refusing the false promises of violent redemption, and of living in and with the losses we cannot recover. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on novels by Kazuo Ishiguro, Marilynne Robinson, Louise Erdrich, and Toni Morrison, and on texts from the early Christian to the postmodern era, Potts diagnoses the real dangers of forgiveness yet insists upon its enduring promise. Sensitive to the twenty-first-century realities of economic inequality, colonial devastation, and racial strife, and considering the role of forgiveness in the New Testament, the Christian tradition, philosophy, and contemporary literature, this book heralds the arrival of a new and creative theological voice.

  The 19th-Century Famines in...

  In the 19th century, Finland was a region undergoing profound political, social, and economic transformation. Following centuries of Swedish rule, Finland was ceded to the Russian Empire in 1809, becoming an autonomous Grand Duchy under the Russian crown. This shift in governance marked a significant turning point in the nation's development, as it introduced new administrative structures and a degree of self-rule, yet still tied Finland’s fate closely to the broader political currents of imperial Russia. Despite this autonomy, many rural communities remained deeply influenced by traditional practices rooted in earlier Swedish governance and local customs. 
  Agriculture formed the backbone of the Finnish economy during this period, with the vast majority of the population engaged in farming or forestry. The rural landscape was dominated by small farms and tenant holdings, where subsistence farming was the norm. Crops such as rye, barley, and oats were staples, but yields were highly susceptible to environmental fluctuations. There was limited access to modern tools, techniques, or fertilizers, and storage methods were often inadequate, leaving communities vulnerable to failed harvests. The lack of agricultural diversity and technological stagnation only exacerbated the risks, particularly during years of poor weather or early frosts. 
  Economically, Finland was still in the early stages of development, with only a few urban centers and a limited industrial base. Trade remained modest, and most commerce was localized. The transportation infrastructure, particularly in the countryside, was underdeveloped, which made the movement of goods—especially food—slow and unreliable. The country’s dependence on its immediate environment for food and income meant that any disruption, whether climatic or political, could have devastating consequences. This fragility was compounded by population growth, which put increasing pressure on available land and resources.
