Summary

As a student of Socrates, Xenophon, like Plato, is an authority on Socrates. Except for the dialogues of Plato, Xenophon's writings are the only surviving representatives of the genre of Socratic dialogue. These works include Xenophon's Apology, Memorabilia, Symposium, and Economist. The Symposium outlines the character of Socrates as he and his companions discuss what attribute they take pride in. In Economist, Socrates explains how to manage a household. Both the Apology and Memorabilia defend Socrates' character and teachings. The former is set during the trial of Socrates, essentially defending Socrates' loss and death, while the latter is a defense of Socrates, explaining his moral principles and that he was not a corrupter of the youth.

    Read by the author. 
Discover Jesus' goals of togetherness, oneness, and unity in an increasingly divided world. When you learn to confront the areas in your heart that might not love as Jesus loved, you can help build a flourishing, Christ-like culture. 
Throughout his ministry, Jesus specifically bridged the gap with the ostracized, outcast, and overlooked. He told his followers to do the same. The gospel message is for everyone—and our mission as believers is to make disciples of Jesus, not duplicates of ourselves. This requires us to live and love beyond our preferences, to build relationships with those who are different from us, and to go beyond the boundaries of unspoken rules and invisible lines. It's time to break the strongholds of division that have been passed down from generation to generation. 
In Love Outside the Lines, Jimmy Rollins willexpand the gospel message of Christ beyond the lines of cultural norms,show us how to follow in Jesus' footsteps by moving away from racial stereotypes and moving toward things that unite us,empower a culture of people willing to be part of the conversation on racial reconciliation,help us embrace the kingdom truth that we are better together than we are divided, andexemplify a life of dynamic diversity at church, work, and home. 
  
Join Jimmy on a powerful journey to rediscover the discipleship of diversity that leads to unity. Together, we will confront our comfort-zone barriers—both known and unknown—and take a detour to pursue the kind of diverse relationships and honest dialog that build a flourishing Christ culture. 
Reflection questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    Have you ever wondered why some people have a "golden touch", while others are constantly haunted by bad luck? If you count yourself in the first category, congratulations! You're already adept at creating conscious manifestations. In this case, the techniques in this Manifestation Book will help you fulfill (even) greater desires. Often, however, reality unfolds differently: You struggle and invest incredible effort to achieve your goals. But just when things appear to be improving, the next defeat, obstacle, or setback emerges. It feels like for every two steps forward, you're thrown three steps back. 
Author & Master of Manifestation, Neville Goddard, distilled the Law of Assumption (often regarded as the true Law of Attraction) and the Hermetic Laws to their core principles, achieving unparalleled success in manifesting. This success was not just personal but also extended to the thousands of students who mastered the art of manifestation through his teachings. Among his apprentices was Elmer O. Locker Jr. Elmer's grandson, David, has further enriched this Manifestation Book with many of his own experiences in manifestation. If you wish to harness the power of your consciousness (conscious and subconscious mind) to realize your desires, don't hesitate. Dive into the techniques & instructions provided in this book for manifesting.

    The Life Worth Living -...

    More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle said: "let there be a law that no deformed child shall live." This idea is alive and well today. During the past century, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. argued that the United States can forcibly sterilize intellectually disabled women and philosopher Peter Singer argued for the right of parents to euthanize certain cognitively disabled infants. The Life Worth Living explores how and why such arguments persist by investigating the exclusion of and discrimination against disabled people across the history of Western moral philosophy. 
 
 
 
Joel Michael Reynolds argues that this history demonstrates a fundamental mischaracterization of the meaning of disability, thanks to the conflation of lived experiences of disability with those of pain and suffering. Building on decades of activism and scholarship in the field, Reynolds shows how longstanding views of disability are misguided and unjust, and he lays out a vision of what an anti-ableist moral future requires. 
 
 
 
The Life Worth Living is the first sustained examination of disability through the lens of the history of moral philosophy and phenomenology, and it demonstrates how lived experiences of disability demand a far richer account of human flourishing, embodiment, community, and politics in philosophical inquiry and beyond.
