Ringleaders of Redemption

How Medieval Dance Became Sacred

By: Kathryn Dickason

In popular thought, Christianity is often figured as being opposed to dance. Conventional scholarship traces this controversy back to the Middle Ages. Throughout the medieval era, the Latin Church denounced and prohibited dancing in religious and secular realms, often aligning it with demonic intervention, lust, pride, and sacrilege. Historical sources, however, suggest that medieval dance was a complex and ambivalent phenomenon. During the High and Late Middle Ages, Western theologians, liturgists, and mystics not only tolerated dance; they transformed it into a dynamic component of religious thought and practice. This book investigates how dance became a legitimate form of devotion in Christian culture. Sacred dance functioned to gloss scripture, frame spiritual experience, and imagine the afterlife. Invoking numerous manuscript and visual sources (biblical commentaries, sermons, saints' lives, ecclesiastical statutes, mystical treatises, vernacular literature, and iconography), this book highlights how medieval dance helped shape religious identity and social stratification. Moreover, this book shows the political dimension of dance, which worked in the service of Christendom, conversion, and social cohesion. In Ringleaders of Redemption, Kathryn Dickason reveals a long tradition of sacred dance in Christianity, one that the professionalization and secularization of Renaissance dance obscured, and one that the Reformation silenced and suppressed.

A Warrior's Prayerbook for Spiritual Warfare

By: Kathryn McBride

INCLUDED ARE PRAYERS BY: Dr. Mark I. Bubeck, Dr. Neil T. Anderson, Brother Andrew, Nancy Leigh Demoss, Dr. Fred C. Dickason, Rev. Paul Estabrooks, Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, Stormie Omartian, Dr. Ray Pritchard, Dr. Marcus Warner, and others. Newly updated to include an “Introduction to Spiritual Warfare” by Dr. Marcus Warner. The Bible is clear — from the moment we draw our first breath, WE ARE AT WAR. Satan hates us and wants to destroy us — because the Lord loves us. A supernatural battle is waging all around us and if you are not a warrior, you will be a casualty. Christians must face this battle head-on by learning to put on the full armor of God every day. If we are not equipped properly, we will wonder why we live such defeated lives. Satan is alive and well and "prowling around like a lion seeking whom he can devour." We must use the weapons that God has provided for us to do battle for ourselves and for those that we love. A Warrior’s Prayerbook is a clear and concise resource designed to help you put on the full armor of God. This book is filled with doctrinally sound prayers, written by great men and women of faith, past and present, that will help you be a fearsome prayer warrior in your spiritual battle. ENDORSEMENTS A Warrior's Prayerbook will be a great help to many and a service to the Body of Christ. Many will have never seen anything like these prayers. They should not only be a help to those who use them but also a wake-up call and challenge to many who never thought of warfare and practical praying against evil. Kathryn has done a great work in compiling, organizing, presenting, and publishing this book. Good art work. Great need. Great taste. DR. C. FRED DICKASON Author and Fmr. Systematic Theology Chair – Moody Bible Institute, Chicago “The Christian life is not a playground; it is a battleground.” Warren Wiersbe We’re in a battle every day. If we take seriously Paul’s call to “Put on the whole armor of God” (Ephesians 6:11), then we know that we need to pray. But how should we pray when we go into battle? My friend Kathryn McBride has helped us hugely by compiling A Warrior’s Prayerbook for Spiritual Warfare. The first part of the book contains prayers from esteemed Christian leaders like Erwin Lutzer, Mark Bubeck, Fred Dickason, and Brother Andrew, arranged in categories such as “Affirm,” “Resist,” “Renounce,” and “Prayers for Others.” The book also includes the full text of many Scriptures on spiritual warfare along with very helpful quotes from noted Christian leaders. This is the most comprehensive guide to spiritual warfare praying that I have seen. We need a book like this so that when the enemy surrounds us, we will know how to get in contact with the Captain of our Salvation. Read it and you will be better prepared to stand strong when the devil attacks you and your family. DR. RAY PRITCHARD Speaker, Pastor, Author www.keepbelieving.com

The Political Uncommons

The Cross-Cultural Logic of the Global Commons

By: Kathryn Milun

In The Political Uncommons, Kathryn Milun presents a cultural history of the global commons: those domains, including the atmosphere, the oceans, the radio frequency spectrum, the earth's biodiversity, and its outer space, designated by international law as belonging to no single individual or nation state but rather to all humankind. From the res communis of Roman property law to early modern laws establishing the freedom of the seas, from the legal battles over the neutrality of the internet to the heritage of the earth's genetic diversity, Milun connects ancient, modern, and postmodern legal traditions of global commons. Arguing that the logic of legal institutions governing global commons is connected to the logic of colonial doctrines that dispossessed indigenous peoples of their land, she demonstrates that the failure of international law to adequately govern the earth's atmosphere and waters can be more deeply understood as a cultural logic that has successfully dispossessed humankind of basic subsistence rights. The promise of global commons, Milun shows, has always been related to subsistence rights and an earth that human communities have long imagined as 'common' existing alongside private and public domains. Utilizing specific case studies, The Political Uncommons opens a way to consider how global commons regimes might benefit from the cross-cultural logics found where indigenous peoples have gained recognition of their common tenure systems in Western courts.

Heathen

Religion and Race in American History

By: Kathryn Gin Lum

American ideas about race owe much to the notion of an undifferentiated “heathen world” held together by its need of assistance. This religious notion shaped American racial governance and undergirds American exceptionalism, even as purported heathens have drawn on their characterization as such to push back against this national myth.
