Book Description
In The Saints' Inheritance, early revivalist J. N. Loughborough studies what awaits the saints after the second coming: their inheritance. Many have supposed that the saints are to receive a literal kingdom with literal territory, but carefully read the Biblical evidence that brought Loughborough to the conclusion that it is to be the "kingdom, and dominion, and greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens," which the saints of God will ultimately inherit as their eternal abode. . Follow the evidence that has led Loughborough to the claim that the saints' final reward is to be this earth redeemed from the curse, after the works of the Devil have been burned out of it, and when it stands as beautiful and glorious as when it came from the hands of its Creator, who pronounced it "Very good." As Dr. J. Cummings of England said, "We have got a notion as if there were something essentially impure and hopeless in what is material. But it is not so. Only exhaust from the earth the poison, sin - let the footfall of Him who made it be echoed from the hills and valleys once more, at dewy dawn, and at even tide, and this earth of ours will be instantly transformed into an orb, the like of which is not amid all the orbs of the universe besides."

Book Description
Read the book that's getting conversion therapy banned in Canada Winner of the Independent Book Publisher Award, Finalist for the Randy Shilts Award for Gay Nonfiction and the Saints and Sinners Emerging Writer Award. "Unforgettable... This book is appallingly appropriate in these times." — FOREWORD REVIEWS This resonant and acclaimed memoir recounts the six years that the author spent in a bizarre form of conversion therapy that attempted to "cure" him of his homosexuality, and the inspiring story of how he cast out shame and reclaimed his life. Kept with other patients in a cult-like home in British Columbia, Canada, Peter Gajdics was under the authority of a dominating, rogue psychiatrist who controlled his patients, in part, by creating and exploiting a false sense of family. Juxtaposed against his parents' tormented past–his mother's incarceration and escape from a communist concentration camp in post-World War II Yugoslavia, and his father's upbringing as an orphan in war-torn Hungary, The Inheritance of Shame explores the universal themes of childhood trauma, oppression, and intergenerational pain. “DEEPLY MOVING." — THE ADVOCATE “RAW AND UNFLINCHING" — KIRKUS REVIEWS “A HERO’S JOURNEY IN WHICH ANY READER, GAY OR STRAIGHT, CAN FIND INSPIRATION.” — LAMBDA LITERARY FOUNDATION All over the United States and Canada, districts, cities and states are banning conversion, ex-gay and reparative therapies. A powerful example of "healing through memoir," this book offers the most complete and compelling reason for those bans to date. A groundbreaking memoir, The Inheritance of Shame offers insights into overcoming all kinds of shame, especially that which has trickled down from previous generations, and into the complicated but all-too-worthwhile process of forgiveness.
