The Life with God Bible NRSV--Old Testament

By: Renovare,Richard J. Foster,Dallas Willard,Walter Brueggemann,Eugene H. Peterson,Bruce Demarest,Evan Howard,James Earl Massey,Catherine Taylor

The Life with God Bible combines the depth of a study Bible with the warmth of a devotional Bible, offering a new way to discover the full riches of the Scriptures. According to Richard Foster, bestselling author and the project′s editor, the Bible is all about human life "with God." As we read Scripture, we should consider how God is with us in each story and allow ourselves to be spiritually transformed. Many people are looking for a new way to read the Bible, not as a text to be mastered. but as a story to enter into and a lifestyle to pursue. This unique Bible, previously published as The Renovare Spiritual Formation Bible and spearheaded by bestselling authors Richard Foster (Celebration of Discipline) and Dallas Willard (The Divine Conspiracy), introduces the concept of life with God - or the "with-God life" - a model for seeing the whole of Scripture as the unfolding story of God′s plan for our loving relationship with the Creator. This central theme weaves throughout the essays, introductions, notes, and exercises, powerfully revealing how God is present to his people today and throughout history. Yet our relationship with God should not be passive. Concrete practices - Spiritual Disciplines - have been used throughout church history to guide disciples of Jesus. This Bible integrates the Spiritual Disciplines into the Christian life by showing how they are central to the Bible′s teachings and stories. Abraham and Ruth, Moses and Deborah, Jesus and the disciples all provide amazing examples of the life-changing power of prayer, worship, fasting, celebration, and many other Spiritual Disciplines. Scripture thus becomes a primary means for the discovery, instruction, and practice of these disciplines as well as a tool for spiritual formation. Combining the highest possible biblical scholarship with the deepest possible heart devotion, this new Bible project seeks to nourish inner transformation by unlocking and revealing the profound resources within Scripture for changing our hearts and characters and bringing them in line with what God wants for our lives. The Life with God Bible will redefine what the Bible means for Christian discipleship.

North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885

By: Warren Eugene Milteer Jr.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885

By: Warren Eugene Milteer Jr.

In North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885, Warren Eugene Milteer Jr. examines the lives of free persons categorized by their communities as “negroes,” “mulattoes,” “mustees,” “Indians,” “mixed-bloods,” or simply “free people of color.” From the colonial period through Reconstruction, lawmakers passed legislation that curbed the rights and privileges of these non-enslaved residents, from prohibiting their testimony against whites to barring them from the ballot box. While such laws suggest that most white North Carolinians desired to limit the freedoms and civil liberties enjoyed by free people of color, Milteer reveals that the two groups often interacted—praying together, working the same land, and occasionally sharing households and starting families. Some free people of color also rose to prominence in their communities, becoming successful businesspeople and winning the respect of their white neighbors. Milteer’s innovative study moves beyond depictions of the American South as a region controlled by a strict racial hierarchy. He contends that although North Carolinians frequently sorted themselves into races imbued with legal and social entitlements—with whites placing themselves above persons of color—those efforts regularly clashed with their concurrent recognition of class, gender, kinship, and occupational distinctions. Whites often determined the position of free nonwhites by designating them as either valuable or expendable members of society. In early North Carolina, free people of color of certain statuses enjoyed access to institutions unavailable even to some whites. Prior to 1835, for instance, some free men of color possessed the right to vote while the law disenfranchised all women, white and nonwhite included. North Carolina’s Free People of Color, 1715–1885 demonstrates that conceptions of race were complex and fluid, defying easy characterization. Despite the reductive labels often assigned to them by whites, free people of color in the state emerged from an array of backgrounds, lived widely varied lives, and created distinct cultures—all of which, Milteer suggests, allowed them to adjust to and counter ever-evolving forms of racial discrimination.

Blood Theology

Seeing Red in Body- and God-Talk

By: Eugene F. Rogers, Jr

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Blood Theology

Seeing Red in Body- and God-Talk

By: Eugene F. Rogers, Jr

The unsettling language of blood has been invoked throughout the history of Christianity. But until now there has been no truly sustained treatment of how Christians use blood to think with. Eugene F. Rogers Jr. discusses in his much-anticipated new book the sheer, surprising strangeness of Christian blood-talk, exploring the many and varied ways in which it offers a language where Christians cooperate, sacrifice, grow and disagree. He asks too how it is that blood-talk dominates when other explanations would do, and how blood seeps into places where it seems hardly to belong. Reaching beyond academic disputes, to consider how religious debates fuel civil ones, he shows that it is not only theologians or clergy who engage in blood-talk, but also lawmakers, judges, generals, doctors and voters at large. Religious arguments have significant societal consequences, Rogers contends; and for that reason secular citizens must do their best to understand them.

The Nuremberg Fallacy

By: Eugene Davidson

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Nuremberg Fallacy

By: Eugene Davidson

Available for the first time in paperback, The Nuremberg Fallacy examines the inherent shortcomings of the Nuremberg "rules of war" and the War Crimes Tribunal's impossible expectations. In 1946, the Tribunal declared all aggressive war, war crimes, and crimes against humanity illegal. Yet the period since World War II has witnessed an unprecedented number of armed conflicts. In light of recent crises, including those in Rwanda, Bosnia and Serbia, and the Middle East, it is clear that the issues explored in The Nuremberg Fallacy are as relevant today as they were at the time of the book's first publication a quarter century ago. In this volume, Eugene Davidson continues his investigations begun in The Trial of the Germans (University of Missouri Press), which studied the Nuremberg trials themselves, by focusing on five major conflicts since the end of World War II: the Suez crisis of 1956; Algeria's war of independence; Israel's recurring (and ongoing) battles with its Arab neighbors, complicated and worsened by intervention of the superpowers; the wars in Southeast Asia; and the Soviet Union's suppression of Czechoslovakia and other border states of Eastern Europe. By exploring the roots and ramifications of these five conflicts, Davidson is able to chart the crosscurrents between large and small states, between individual nations and the United Nations, between the rules of Nuremberg and the significantly older rules of self- interest. The result is a thoughtful and thought-provoking study of the dynamics of war and peace in the post-Nuremberg world. The rules of war proclaimed at Nuremberg--observing the flag of truce, prohibiting attacks on surrendered enemies, treating prisoners of war and civilian populations humanely--have become virtually irrelevant in modern guerrilla warfare. If anything, Davidson suggests, conditions have actually become worse than they were before the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal. The continuing importance and relevance of The Nuremberg Fallacy is best summarized in the final sentences of Davidson's text: "The survival of a nation cannot be successfully entrusted to simplistic formulae or to principles that reflect unworkable doctrines. No computers have been programmed for the wisdom that remains essential for survival. People still have to provide that from their own inner and outer resources, no matter how far the weapons may seem to have outdistanced them.

A scintillating analysis of the dangers of the Oslo Peace Process and the chance for the current crisis to lead to Israeli renewal and world peace. "Professor Narrett's articles are insightful, scholarly and graced by literary style and originality. He is a man of truth who displays impressive erudition in writing on the Israeli-Arab conflict." -Professor Paul Eidelberg, President, Foundation of Constitutional Democracy, author, Judaic Man, Jewish Statesmanship "Eugene Narrett writes with a great deal of knowledge and intelligence, and far more understanding of the issues than many so-called 'Middle East experts.'" -Professor Rael Jean Isaac, editor, The Outpost, author, Israel Divided "Professor Narrett is one of the few academics who has had a clear understanding of the dangers inherent in the "peace process" from the outset. His prophetic writings lucidly present complex issues, displaying profound understanding, depth of feeling and love of Israel. We are fortunate to have this extraordinary collection, an invaluable resource to the concerned reader." -Helen Freedman, Executive Director, Americans for a Safe Israel "One of the most prolific and intelligent Zionist thinkers in the United States today, Eugene Narrett's comments on the politics of the Middle East should be required reading. His keen eye and sharp wit make him a great American and Jewish resource." -Professor Steven Plaut, University of Haifa "I have avidly followed Professor Narrett's work. His scintillating analysis will be proved right after all the politicians and international statesmen will be shown to have been dead wrong. His wise and insightful writings are a badge of courage." -Miriam Samsonowitz, Studio Har Chotzvim, Jerusalem, Israel

THIS POETIC BOOK This is a book of poems to give you a lift, And it's my appreciation of God's gift. For I enjoy writing poetry just for fun; I'll write about anything or anyone. I don't care what the subject might be; I'll turn it around until it suits me. I hope you find this book to be a joy for you; Then, I have accomplished what I wanted to do. I'm writing this book with friends and relation in mind; I wanted it to be in poetry, making the words rhyme. I'm certainly not writing for fame or even glory; I just want to tell about things in a poetic story. This book will hopefully inspire, make you laugh or cry; Being so grateful, I want to encourage others, so I'll try. The Webb of Life is poems of people and events important to me; Look at your life and perhaps you, too, God's blessings will see. This book turned out to be a lot more than I had planned; Now it'll be wonderful to get it into some other hands. For I want you to remember when I'm dead and gone, That, hopefully, this poetic book will carry on.

The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War

The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War

By: Eugene Berwanger

During the American Civil War, the British legation and consuls experienced strained relations with both the Union and the Confederacy, to varying degrees and with different results. Southern consuls were cut off from the legation in Washington, D.C., and confronted their problems for the most part without direction from superiors. Consuls in the North sought assistance from the British foreign minister and followed the procedures he established. Diplomatic relations with Great Britain eased tensions in the North; the British consuls in the South were expelled in 1863. Eugene H. Berwanger uses archival sources in both Britain and the United States as a basis for his reevaluation of consular attitudes. Because much of this material was not available to earlier historians of British-American diplo-macy, the author expands upon their conclusions and suggests reinterpreta-tions in light of the new information. The first comprehensive investigation of Anglo-American relations during the Civil War, The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War will interest scholars of American history and diplomatic relations.
