Benched Justice

How Judges Decide Asylum Claims and Asylum Rights of Unaccompanied Minors

By: Claire Nolasco Braaten,Daniel Braaten

This book delves into the complex and often politicized world of asylum claims and asylum rights of children seeking sanctuary in the United States. This eye-opening book asks two vital questions: do immigration judges base their asylum decisions on more than just the law, and how have federal courts responded to executive policies and programs that significantly affect the rights of these minors? With over 12,000 immigration court decisions and 200 federal court cases as its backbone, this book uncovers how both legal and political factors shape the fate of children seeking asylum. The findings reveal that while political factors do influence the decision-making process, courts still strive to protect the legal rights of unaccompanied minors, pushing back against some of the more harmful and legally dubious immigration policies pursued by various Presidential administration This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the intricacies of asylum claims and asylum rights of unaccompanied minors in the United States.

The Bible and Borders

Hearing God's Word on Immigration

By: M. Daniel Carroll R.

With so many people around the globe migrating, how should Christians and the church respond? Leading Latino-American biblical scholar M. Daniel Carroll R. (Rodas) helps readers understand what the Bible says about immigration, offering accessible, nuanced, and sympathetic guidance for the church. After two successful editions of Christians at the Border, and having talked and written about immigration over the past decade, Carroll has sharpened his focus and refined his argument to make sure we hear clearly what the Bible says about one of the most pressing issues of our day. He has reworked the biblical material, adding insights and broadening the frame of reference beyond the US. As Carroll explores the surprising amount of material in the Old and New Testaments that deals with migration, he shows how this topic is fundamental to the message of the Bible and how it affects our understanding of God and the mission of the church.

The Triumph of Grace

Literary and Theological Studies in Deuteronomy and Deuteronomic Themes

By: Daniel I. Block

The Apostle Paul's negative statements about the law have deafened the ears of many to the grace that Moses proclaims in Deuteronomy. Most Christians have a dim view of this book, which they consider to be primarily a book of laws. However, when we read or hear it read orally without prejudice, we discover that rather than casting Moses as a legislator, he appears as Israel's first pastor, whose congregation has gathered before him to hear him preach his final sermons. Accordingly, Deuteronomy represents prophetic preaching at its finest, as Moses seeks to inspire the people of God to a life of faith and godliness in response to God's repeated demonstrations of grace. Deuteronomy is a dead book for many, because we have not recognized this gospel; we have heard only law. The essays in this collection arise from a larger project driven by a passion to recover for Christians the life-giving message of the Hebrew Scriptures in general, and to open their ears to God's amazing grace in Deuteronomy in particular. The wide-ranging "meditations" in this volume do not all focus equally on the topic of God's grace, but this theme undergirds them all.

Effects of the Business Cycle on Social Indicators in Latin America and the Caribbean

When Dreams Meet Reality

By: Carlos A. Vegh,Guillermo Vuletin,Daniel Riera-Crichton,Jorge Pablo Puig,José Andrée Camarena,Luciana Galeano,Luis Morano,Lucila Venturi

After mediocre growth in 2018 of 0.7 percent. LAC is expected to perform only marginally better in 2019 (growth of 0.9 percent) followed by a much more solid growth of 2.1 percent in 2020. LAC will face both internal and external challenges during 2019. On the domestic front. the recession in Argentina; a slower than expected recovery in Brazil from the 2014-2015 recession, anemic growth in Mexico. and the continued deterioration of Venezuela. present the biggest challenges. On the external front. the sharp drop in net capital inflows to the region since early 2018 and the monetary policy normalization in the United States stand among the greatest perils. Furthermore, the recent increase in poverty in Brazil because of the recession points to the large effects that the business cycle may have on poverty. The core of this report argues that social indicators that are very sensitive to the business cycle may yield a highly misleading picture of permanent social gains in the region.

Reading the Bible Latinamente

Latino/a Interpretation for the Life of the Church

By: Ruth Padilla DeBorst,M. Daniel Carroll R.,Miguel G. Echevarría

The Bible is important to Latino/a Christians living in America, playing a central role in their lives and churches. These believers have unique experiences and backgrounds that influence the way they read, understand, and apply Scripture. Reading the Bible Latinamente encourages these readers to recognize and embrace their social location and lived realities in reading Scripture. Three prominent evangelical Latino/a scholars and ministry practitioners combine their diverse experiences and expertise in biblical studies, theology, and missiology to provide an accessible resource that speaks to the lives of everyday people. The authors discuss biblical interpretation from the Latino/a diaspora and provide examples from both New and Old Testament texts. Topics include reading in community and wrestling with identity and mission in the diaspora. Latino/a students and lay readers will be encouraged in their own reading of the Scripture and in the contributions they make to the North American and global church, while believers from other backgrounds will benefit from the perspectives and contributions of their Latino/a brothers and sisters.

40 dias de jejum e Oração

By: Daniel Fernando

Fizemos esse propósito com toda a nossa igreja pentecostal destruindo as obras do diabo, eu como o pastor da igreja fui direcionado pelo Senhor a fazer esse propósito com o tema saindo do deserto para bênção: Um dia em um sermão de domingo perguntei a igreja, quem na sua caminhada cristã já fez um propósito de 40 dias de jejum; a resposta foi que ninguém tinha feito. Então dai em diante começamos esse propósito para nos preparar para o nosso congresso, quatro anos de igreja.Entre nesse propósito e busque ao Senhor de verdade, Ele disse; quem busca acha. E você verá o Senhor agir ao seu favor. Se aproxime do Senhor. Faça igual Moisés, Elias, Ester, Jesus, paulo e outros mais. Quem é de Deus mortifica a carne com suas paixões, o jejum e um fortalecedor para o nosso espírito.

Imperio de Kovan

By: Daniel Igual Merlo

El emperador Mastuh ha muerto y deja un extenso imperio a su hija, Hansa. Esta es tan solo una niña y desde hace más de dos siglos no ha reinado una mujer en el imperio de Kovan. Al producirse la muerte del emperador, su hermano, Jonrrak, regresa de las conquistadas tierras de Cirimeria con la Legión Extranjera y da un golpe de estado en el imperio para derrocar a su sobrina y hacerse con el trono imperial. Un grupo de guardias logra salvar a la princesa y huir de la capital, Ciudad Baluarte. Sin embargo, la lucha se extiende por todo el imperio entre los partidarios de la princesa Hansa y los partidarios de Jonrrak. Las sacerdotisas del imperio, las célebres Korais, únicas capaces de utilizar magia en el imperio, también se posicionan a favor de uno u otro bando. El conflicto por el dominio de Kovan está servido. Es una lucha por el control de territorios y de ideologías. Sin embargo, también desde las fronteras exteriores del imperio acechan enemigos poderosos, dispuestos a destrozar al imperio. Daniel Igual Merlo. Nacido en Móstoles (Madrid) en 1987, es licenciado en Historia y Periodismo. Desde muy temprana edad su afición por la novela fantástica le llevó a escribir relatos de este género. Siempre busca en sus aventuras el nexo entre fantasía épica y el protagonismo colectivo de varios personajes cuyas historias se entrelazan en la trama principal. En ocasiones, sus relatos tienen un paralelismo con acontecimientos históricos. Tras su primera saga “Las aventuras de Alan Braw”, ahora en “Imperio de Kovan” nos muestra una historia épica en la que dos contendientes luchan por alcanzar el poder de un territorio existiendo en ambos bandos personajes inolvidables, tanto hombres como mujeres, que protagonizan toda la trama.

Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible: Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi

By: John W. Rogerson,M. Daniel Carroll R.

This extract from the Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible provides Rogerson and Carroll R.'s introduction to and concise commentary on Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. The Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible presents, in nontechnical language, the best of modern scholarship on each book of the Bible, including the Apocrypha. Reader-friendly commentary complements succinct summaries of each section of the text and will be valuable to scholars, students, and general readers. Rather than attempt a verse-by-verse analysis, these volumes work from larger sense units, highlighting the place of each passage within the overarching biblical story. Commentators focus on the genre of each text—parable, prophetic oracle, legal code, and so on—interpreting within the historical and literary context. The volumes also address major issues within each biblical book—including the range of possible interpretations—and refer readers to the best resources for further discussions.

Metasomatism and the Chemical Transformation of Rock

Metasomatism and the Chemical Transformation of Rock

The Role of Fluids in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Processes

By: Daniel Harlov,Hakon Austrheim

Fluid-aided mass transfer and subsequent mineral re-equilibration are the two defining features of metasomatism and must be present in order for metamorphism to occur. Coupled with igneous and tectonic processes, metasomatism has played a major role in the formation of the Earth’s continental and oceanic crust and lithospheric mantle as well as in their evolution and subsequent stabilization. Metasomatic processes can include ore mineralization, metasomatically induced alteration of oceanic lithosphere, mass transport in and alteration of subducted oceanic crust and overlying mantle wedge, which has subsequent implications regarding mass transport, fluid flow, and volatile storage in the lithospheric mantle overall, as well as both regional and localized crustal metamorphism. Metasomatic alteration of accessory minerals such as zircon or monazite can allow for the dating of metasomatic events as well as give additional information regarding the chemistry of the fluids responsible. Lastly present day movement of fluids in both the lithospheric mantle and deep to mid crust can be observed utilizing geophysical resources such as electrical resistivity and seismic data. Such observations help to further clarify the picture of actual metasomatic processes as inferred from basic petrographic, mineralogical, and geochemical data. The goal of this volume is to bring together a diverse group of geologists, each of whose specialities and long range experience regarding one or more aspects of metasomatism during geologic processes, should allow them to contribute to a series of review chapters, which outline the basis of our current understanding of how metasomatism influences and helps to control both the evolution and stability of the crust and lithospheric mantle.

The Lord Roars (Theological Explorations for the Church Catholic)

Recovering the Prophetic Voice for Today

By: M. Daniel Carroll R.

The world cries out for a prophetic word to the chaos, unrest, and destructiveness of our times. Can the biblical prophets speak into our world today? Old Testament ethicist M. Daniel Carroll R. shows that learning from the prophets can make us better prepared for Christian witness. In this guide to the ethical material of Old Testament prophetic literature, Carroll highlights key ethical concerns of the three prophets most associated with social critique--Amos, Isaiah, and Micah--showing their relevance for those who wish to speak with a prophetic voice today. The book focuses on the pride that generates injustice and the religious life that legitimates an unacceptable status quo--both of which bring judgment--as well as the ethical importance of the visions of restoration after divine judgment. Each of these components in the biblical text makes its own particular call to readers to respond in an appropriate manner. The book also links biblical teaching with prophetic voices of the modern era.

The Theology of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah

By: Daniel C. Timmer

The books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah address problems in and around ancient Judah in ways that are as incisive and critical as they are optimistic and constructive. Daniel C. Timmer's The Theology of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah situates these books in their social and political contexts, examining the unique theology of each as it engages thorny problems in Judah and beyond. In dialogue with recent scholarship, this study focuses on these books' analysis and evaluation of the world as it is, focusing on both human beings and their actions, and God's commitment to purify, restore, and perfect the world. Timmer also surveys these books' later theological use and cultural reception. His study brings their theology into dialogue with concerns as varied as ecology, nationalism, and widespread injustice. It highlights the enduring significance of divine justice and grace for solid hope and effective service in our world.

Empire Found

Racial Identities and Coloniality in Twenty-First Century Portuguese Popular Cultures

By: Daniel F. Silva

An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the Opening the Future project with COPIM.Empire Found: Racial Identities and Coloniality in Twenty-First Century Portuguese Popular Cultures examines how the discourses and narratives of Portuguese imperial exceptionalism and Portuguese racial identity, developed during the last centuries of Portuguese settler colonialism continue to inform an array of cultural production and consumption in the four decades since decolonization. By examining a range of contemporary popular cultural production (literature, football, musical production, and celebrity culture) in critical conversation with intellectual production of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Empire Found examines how narratives of Portuguese racial hybridity and indeterminacy operate alongside ongoing structures of coloniality and white supremacy in the realms of cultural production. I argue that these implied or overt historical dialogues carried out through cultural production are integral to the very reproduction of the Portuguese nation-state apparatus, as well as its racial structures and claims to whiteness in the wake of decolonization and marginal integration into the European Union.
