Missing the Point

It’s Time to Usher in a New Generation of Christianity

By: Amy Skoll

We live in an era in which being a Christian is neither popular nor politically correct. As a millennial, author Amy Skoll is watching an entire generation question their faith and walk away from the church as they struggle to reconcile biblical truth with political and cultural trends. But Skoll believes that it is possible to be effective ambassadors for Christ in a world that does not understand Christian beliefs, customs, convictions, and experiences—in spite of the difficulties inherent in that role. Missing the Point, therefore, offers a fresh take from the perspective of a millennial on how to create an attitude shift among believers and to help them think about the areas of life in which they might be missing the point. As ambassadors for Christ, we do not want to come across as insensitive to the culture and belief systems of those around us. But at the same time, it is our job to accurately represent the gospel without succumbing to a watered-down, empty version of Christianity in the process. With the guidance provided here, you can refresh your faith, amplify your love for God, restore your hope, and feel empowered to take on the mission of Christ in a world that is increasingly in opposition to Christianity and what it stands for.

National and Transnational Memories of the Kindertransport

Exhibitions, Memorials, and Commemorations

By: Amy Williams,William Niven

The first transnational study of the memory of the Kindertransport and the first to explore how it is represented in museums, memorials, and commemorations.The Kindertransport, the rescue of ca. 10,000 Jewish children from the Nazi sphere of control and influence before the Second World War, has often been framed as a "British story." This book recognizes that even though most of the "Kinder" were initially brought to the UK and many stayed, it was more than that. It therefore compares British memory of the Kindertransport to that of other host nations (the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand). It is the first book to ask how the Kindertransport is remembered both in the countries of origin, particularly Germany, and in the host nations, as well as the first to analyze how it is represented in museums, memorials, and commemorations. Seeing memory of the Kindertransport in the host nations and in Germany as significantly different, the study argues that the different national memory discourses around the Nazi persecution of Jews shape the respective countries' images of the Kindertransport, and that those images in turn shape the discourses - especially in Britain. Yet while national memory frameworks remain crucial to how the Kindertransport is remembered, the book also documents the increasing significance of transnational memory trends that link the host nations with each other and with the countries fzi persecution of Jews shape the respective countries' images of the Kindertransport, and that those images in turn shape the discourses - especially in Britain.

Mythology in Our Midst

A Guide to Cultural References

By: Amy T. Peterson,David J. Dunworth

Though nearly everyone is familiar with such great mythological figures as Hercules, Icarus, and Medusa, one may wonder what relevance these ancient characters, and their stories, hold for modern readers. This unique reference book brings mythology to life for students by exploring the connections between ancient myths and contemporary culture. An introductory essay sets the tone with its overview of the myriad areas of human endeavors—including the arts, science, psychology, language and literature, consumer products, and other aspects of popular culture—that mythology has influenced. The user-friendly volume is comprised of 50 narrative essays that trace the cultural connections and offer a lively retelling of each myth. For example, readers will discover the derivation of Freudian psychoanalysis from the myth of Oedipus, and fans of popular film and fiction may be surprised to learn the mythological inspirations for works like Beauty and the Beast, The Matrix, or Michael Crichton's Eaters of the Dead. This engrossing book is enhanced with 25 original illustrations. Five fact-filled appendices offer glossaries and interesting mythological etymologies of commonplace words in nature, science, and everyday consumer products like Nike shoes and Olympus cameras. Whether for research or pure enjoyment, this accessible and informative book reveals the many unrecognized references to mythology that impact our lives.
