Freaking Out

A Decade of Living with Terrorism

By: Joshua Woods

After 9/11, research on the perceived threat of terrorism moved in several directions. Some scholars examined the social construction of terrorism, scrutinizing the political rhetoric and media coverage associated with the threat. Other researchers investigated the public’s elevated worries about terrorism and their effect on public opinion, while still other analysts elucidated the post-9/11 changes in U.S. foreign and domestic policies. In Freaking Out: A Decade of Living with Terrorism, Joshua Woods unites these areas of research, interweaving the sociology and psychology of terrorism, to create a broader and more compelling explanation of how the attacks on 9/11 have changed American society. Offering a concise review of the shifting policy arena in the post-9/11 era, Woods chronicles not only major U.S. government actions, such as the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, but also less visible changes, such as shifts in immigration policy and the use and abuse of Homeland Security funding by state and local governments. Investigating the public’s response to terrorism, Woods examines the link between media coverage of terrorism and public perceptions of the threat, demonstrating how some news coverage elevates people’s worries more than others. The events of 9/11 influenced the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of public officials, members of the press, and ordinary people. The reactions of these groups are deeply interrelated, but the study of them has remained isolated and compartmentalized across several academic disciplines until now. Demonstrating the virtue of multidisciplinary synthesis, this book advances the growing field of terrorism studies in new directions.

Biologic Knee Reconstruction

A Surgeon's Guide

By: Brian Cole,Joshua Harris

Treatment of articular cartilage pathology in the knees of young and active patients is a challenging and controversial issue. Biologic Knee Reconstruction: A Surgeon's Guide is a how-to, step-by-step guide that addresses the evaluation and management of this unique patient population. Internationally renowned cartilage experts Dr. Brian J. Cole and Dr. Joshua D. Harris, along with their contributors, present information on normal and abnormal history and physical examination. The reader will learn proper decision-making using a patient-centered approach of treatment, increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome. In addition to radiographic assessment of articular cartilage, Biologic Knee Reconstruction discusses the use of biomarkers, defect classification, and patient-reported and surgeon-measured outcomes. Aggressive nonsurgical medical management, including medications, injections, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation, is also presented. Biologic Knee Reconstruction also discusses the management of concomitant pathologies such as malalignment, meniscal deficiency, and ligamentous instability. Selection of surgical cartilage restorative treatment options is multifactorial, requiring consideration of several patient-, knee-, and defect-specific issues. All contemporary open and arthroscopic cartilage techniques are presented in detail with high resolution figures. A unique feature of Biologic Knee Reconstruction is the presentation of several chapters discussing non-medical issues highly pertinent to the advancement and future of this field: funding of research and cost of new advanced technologies, regulation of advanced cellular, tissue, and genetic technologies, evidence-based medicine and clinical trial design and conduct, and the ethics of allograft tissues and stem cell use. Features: Technique preference cards from the experts performing cartilage surgery Patient education information The most up-to-date descriptions of advanced cartilage techniques Unique chapters not covered in books elsewhere, including: Biomarkers Patient-reported outcomes assessment Newer injection techniques (PRP, stem cells) One- and two-stage open and arthroscopic techniques using chondrocyte- and stem cell based cell therapies Costs and public and private funding of research Barriers to high-quality randomized trials Governmental regulation and availability/accessibility to patients Gene therapy and tissue engineering Ethics of articular cartilage surgery with stem cells, ex-vivo cell manipulation, and juvenile tissue sources With the most up-to-date content and step-by-step methods for surgical procedures, Biologic Knee Reconstruction: A Surgeon's Guide is the perfect addition to the bookshelf of the orthopedic surgeon, cartilage researcher, sports physical therapist, or athletic trainer who evaluates and manages this unique patient population.

Wrestling With Angels

What Genesis Teaches Us About Our Spiritual Identity, Sexuality and Personal Rel ationships

By: Naomi H. Rosenblatt,Joshua Horwitz

Wrestling with Angels For over twenty years, psychotherapist, lecturer, and Bible teacher Naomi H. Rosenblatt has been leading some of the nation's best and brightest minds through the Bible, from Wall Street boardrooms to weekly sessions in the U.S. Congress, in what William Safire has called "the best Bible class for the layman." Drawing upon insights into human nature gleaned from decades of private practice and a lifelong study of the Bible, she sifts through the Bible's epic stories, filled with vivid characters in dramatic circumstances, to show how the lessons of their lives empower us today as parents, spouses, businesspeople, citizens, and lovers. In Wrestling with Angels, she and her co-author Joshua Horwitz retell and interpret the multigenerational saga of the first family of the Bible, showing how their all-too-human struggles are decidedly relevant to the issues confronting us today. The Bible? Relevant today? Many readers will be surprised by how truly relevant the Book of Genesis is. It discusses, among other things, the first recorded case of sexual harassment; surrogate parenting and the problems it raises; siblings battling over the love of a parent; rape and its consequences; and vigilante justice. The issues faced by Adam and Eve, Abraham and Sarah, and their descendants are remarkably similar to those that arise in all of our lives, including: The strenuous demands of adulthood The challenges of faith The joys of sexuality The nature of leadership and heroism The responsibilities of parenting The role of values in building character The empowerment of a spiritual identity In this extraordinary book of timeless and profound wisdom, Naomi Rosenblatt invites both Christians and Jews to revisit our common spiritual heritage: "For the humanist, the religious, the agnostic, or the merely inquisitive, Wrestling with Angels is an open invitation to probe the mystery, the miracle, and the drama of adult life in an imperfect world." A book to be read again and again, Wrestling with Angels is a poignant and pragmatic guide to the bestselling self-help book of all time.

The Skeletons in God's Closet

The Mercy of Hell, the Surprise of Judgment, the Hope of Holy War

By: Joshua Ryan Butler

How can a loving God send people to hell? Isn’t it arrogant to believe Jesus is the only way to God? What is up with holy war in the Old Testament? Many of us fear God has some skeletons in the closet. Hell, judgment, and holy war are hot topics for the Christian faith that have a way of igniting fierce debate far and wide. These hard questions leave many wondering whether God is really good and can truly be trusted. The Skeletons in God's Closet confronts our popular caricatures of these difficult topics with the beauty and power of the real thing. Josh Butler reveals that these subjects are consistent with, rather than contradictory to, the goodness of God. He explores Scripture to reveal the plotlines that make sense of these tough topics in light of God’s goodness. From fresh angles, Josh deals powerfully with such difficult passages as: The Lake of Fire Lazarus and the Rich Man The Slaughter of Canaanites in the Old Testament Ultimately, The Skeletons in God's Close uses our toughest questions to provoke paradigm shifts in how we understand our faith as a whole. It pulls the “skeletons out of God’s closet” to reveal they were never really skeletons at all.

Heaven Quest: A Detour Home

By: Joshua Ledesma

Our life is broken up into three main parts: the past, the present, and the future. If you looked at a map of your life's journey, you'd see where you've been, where you are, and where you're going to be. Where we've been is deceived. Where we are is lost. And where we're going to be depends on what we learn from this point forward. Being lost doesn't exactly mean you're going the wrong way; it just means you need help getting pointed in the right direction. Heaven Quest will help you understand your place in God's world by first reviewing your past, then pointing out your current location and pointing you in the direction God wants you to be headed. Not only will you better understand where and who you are at this point in your life, it will show you how to become who God intended you to be. By looking at some of the greatest Bible heroes, you'll better understand the small things they did that helped them accomplish great tasks. Consider reading this book to be like the halftime of a big game. Only difference is, no matter how bad you were losing at the end of the first half, now the score is reset. You are starting with a clean slate. Using quoted Bible scriptures and easy-to-understand explanations, Heaven Quest is sure to open your eyes to what you've been missing in your Christian walk.

Purifying the Consciousness in Hebrews

Purifying the Consciousness in Hebrews

Cult, Defilement and the Perpetual Heavenly Blood of Jesus

By: Joshua D. A. Bloor

Joshua D. A. Bloor argues that the purification of the consciousness of sin, via Jesus' perpetual heavenly blood offering, is a vital motif for understanding Hebrews' sacrificial argumentation, and vice-versa. Jesus' 'objective' earthly achievements are many, yet only his 'subjective' heavenly blood offering purges the heavenly tabernacle and subsequently the consciousness of sin. Bloor views the Levitical cult as having a positive role in Hebrews, with Levitical 'guilt' foreshadowing and informing Hebrews' notion of the 'consciousness of sin'. Levitical sacrifices could purge the consciousness, but only Jesus' heavenly blood can offer complete perpetual purgation. This blood is a qualitative type of purgation which continually speaks in heaven, offering eternal assurance for the recipients regarding their consciousness of sin. Bloor begins with the 'defiled consciousness' and situates the world of Hebrews within cultic defilement, enabling the consciousness of sin and its cosmic implications to be properly understood. From here, the solution to a defiled consciousness is explored by examining Hebrews' cultic argumentation. Bloor highlights the distinctive purposes inherent in both Jesus' earthly and heavenly achievements, with the latter concerned particularly with Yom Kippur imagery and the purgation of the consciousness. Bloor concludes by differentiating between Jesus' session, present heavenly activity and perpetual heavenly blood offering. Throughout this volume, Bloor engages, critiques and advances current discourse concerning the nature and timing of Jesus' offering in Hebrews.

The Gift of Barzillai

The Importance of Walking in Covenant

By: K. Joshua Christiansen

The Gift of Barzillai is about Barzillai, a relatively minor Biblical person, who came alongside David, the most influential man of his time, spiritually walking with the king in a covenant relationship when David was traumatized. That led to Barzillai being singled out for a special blessing, which led to our being blessed with the Person of Jesus Christ. K. Joshua Christiansen has ministered with a number of churches, denominations, and parachurch organizations in many countries and is currently shepherding an intentional missional housechurch in New Hampshire that is known for taking the Bible seriously, praying for the nations, and encouraging each person to live missionally. He has a D.Min. from Fuller Theological Seminary. He and Marcia have been married for more than 40 years and have 7 children.

The Resistance

Becoming a Servant Leader Through the Beatitudes

By: Joshua Staton

The Resistance began as a small group study that focused on character development of leaders as Jesus taught in the Sermon on the Mount. Over time, the project narrowed the scope to address one of the primary roles of leadership: relationship building and improvement, not only in the workplace but in our homes and communities. This is done by taking an in-depth and objective based look at the qualities of character that Jesus taught in the Beatitudes and apply real life action steps to take regarding the various arenas we operate in on a daily basis. If you are a Christ follower, then you are a leader. Any area that you have a role of influence must be looked at thoroughly and an accurate assessment must be made. The goal of The Resistance isn't to build up already strong areas, but rather to confront weak areas and apply a gospel perspective to it in hopes of growth and a progressing spiritual maturity.
