If the Foundations Are Destroyed
"Our dangers are of two kinds, those which affect our religion, and those which affect our government. They are, however, so closely allied that they cannot, with propriety, be separated. The foundations which support the interests of Christianity are also necessary to support a free and equal government like our own.... Whenever the pillars of Christianity shall be overthrown, our present republican forms of government, and all the blessings which flow from them must fall with them." -Rev. Jedidiah Morse, 1799 The author believes Rev. Morse's warning is still applicable today. The basic Biblical principles upon which American civil government were founded are rapidly disappearing in our society. Yet he doesn't simply point out the problem; he also explains how the reinstatement of specific Biblical principles into American society and government can reverse the damage. The foundations can be rebuilt. K. Alan Snyder is a department chair and professor of American history at Southeastern University in Florida.

In a Mirror Dimly
Through the years of his education, training, work as a family physician, and life situations, author Dr. Michael Fleming realized every experience had a story. In a Mirror Dimly, he shares a collection of these stories, reflecting his love for them and his talent for telling them. This compilation includes Fleming’s random thoughts and observations as he’s traveled his path: an early life filled with insecurity and shame; a young adult life with too much wasted; an adult life blessed with love and family, a wife, children, and grandchildren; and now his final seasons that have been given light through God’s grace. Derived from a life of curiosity, some of the stories are edgy and others not exactly politically correct. They represent a reflection of the many mentors who guided him, the experiences that molded him, the love of his life who traveled these paths with him, and the observations of someone who has ever been curious about “why” we are, and “how” do we make the best of it all.

In The Text in Play, Mike Higton and Rachel Muers conduct a series of experiments in the reading of Scripture. They experiment in the first place with a form of Christian theological exegesis of the Bible that they call "serious play"--a form of reading beyond the literal sense that is nevertheless serious about the ethical, historical, and textual responsibilities of the reader. They experiment in the second place with the practice called Scriptural Reasoning--in which Jews, Christians, and Muslims read and argue over their respective Scriptures together--and argue that the practice makes deep sense for "seriously playful" Christian readers. This constitutes the most detailed and developed account of Scriptural Reasoning yet published.
