Book Description
Eva Kushner demonstrates that, despite strong pressure to be a more rigorous science, recent directions in comparative literature have realized that the validity of knowledge must constantly be tested, becoming increasingly more open to individuality, difference, and life situations rather than proposing universalizing statements about literary values."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Ron Sider asserts that "by their daily activity, most 'Christians' regularly commit treason. With their mouths they claim that Jesus is their Lord, but with their actions they demonstrate their allegiance to money, sex, and personal self-fulfillment." In this candid and challenging book, Sider addresses an embarrassing reality: most Christians' lives are no different from the lives of their secular neighbors. Hedonism, materialism, racism, egotism, and many other undesirable traits are commonplace among Christians. Rather than simply a book bemoaning the state of American Christianity today, The Scandal of the Evangelical Conscience offers readers solutions to repair the disconnect between belief and practice. While it's not easy medicine to take, this book is a much-needed prophetic call to transformed living.

Book Description
In this refreshingly relatable memoir, David K. humanizes the experience of life with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. His many poignant recollections act as a prism, making the invisible visible, and demystifying the reality of having this neuromuscular disease. Among his many experiences: Being a "normal" college student: living away from home, staying in a dorm, learning independence, partying Confronting his early mortality at the age of 13, and being entirely unprepared to deal with it Kissing a girl for the first time at age 19, and realizing that women could indeed be interested in someone with a severe disability Learning he needed a ventilator the hard way: nearly suffocating when out with friends, and rushing home in a panic David does not sugarcoat anything, nor does he spout a lot of empty inspirational rhetoric. All he does is peel back the curtain and show what it's really like to live with a disability.

Book Description
Prisms: Reflections on the Journey We Call Life summarizes a lifetime of observing, engaging, and exploring why we are here, in service to what, and what life asks of us. These eleven essays, all written recently, examine how we understand ourselves, and often we have to reframe that understanding, the nature and gift of comedy, the imagination, desire, as well as our encounters with narcissism, and aging. James Hollis, Ph.D., a Jungian Analyst in Washington, D.C., explores the roadblocks we encounter and our on-going challenge to live our brief journey with as much courage, insight, and resolve as we can bring to the table.
