Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. This is the first in a series of books that tells the history of early modern England from the perspective of people living at the time. Norman Jones' account charts both the small changes and the large historical ones which dominated life during the 1560s. As the decade opened, the English were preoccupied with hunger, sickness and a depressed economy. At the same time, the 1560s saw the settling of a number of issues that had been plaguing Tudor England since the reign of Henry VIII. With the accession of Elizabeth I the Henrican succession was complete, Protestantism finally victorious and entangling dynastic wars ended. No sooner were these resolved, however, than they rose again in new forms as fear over the succession, religious dissent, and ideological commitment began to reshape foreign and domestic concerns. The high politics of the decade, as well as its religious history, concentrated on these issues. Norman Jones draws on both primary and secondary works to provide this account of life in the 1560s through the voices of contemporaries.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. How prevalent is homosexuality? What causes it? Is it a psychopathology? Can it be changed? Questions like these often accompany discussions of homosexual behavior. For answers we naturally look to scientific studies. But what does the scientific research actually show? More important, what place should this research have in shaping the church's response? Stanton Jones and Mark Yarhouse help us face these issues squarely and honestly. In four central chapters they examine how scientific research has been used within church debates--in particular within Methodist, Presbyterian and Episcopal contexts. They then survey the most recent and best scientific research and sort out what it actually shows. Next they help us to interpret the research's relevance to the moral debate within the church. In a concluding chapter they make a strong case for a traditional Christian sexual ethic. Church groups considering these complex issues will find helpful discussion questions at the end of each chapter. This book is essential reading for anyone involved in the church's debate over homosexual behavior. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Christians are supposed to forgive others as we've been forgiven. But hearing the call to forgive is different from knowing how to practice forgiveness at home and in the world. Forgiveness is about more than the isolated acts and words of individuals. To forgive and be forgiven, we need communal practices and disciplines for a way of life that makes for peace. Greg Jones and Celestin Musekura describe how churches and communities can cultivate the habits that make forgiveness possible on a daily basis. Following the Rwandan genocide, Musekura lost his father and other family members to revenge killings. But then he heard God tell him to forgive the killers. The healing power of forgiveness in his own life inspired him to work for forgiveness and reconciliation across Africa. Jones, author of Embodying Forgiveness, interacts with Musekura's story to show how people can practice forgiveness not only in dramatic situations like genocide but also in everyday circumstances of marriage, family and congregational life. Together they demonstrate that forgiving and being forgiven are mutually reciprocating practices that lead to transformation and healing.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This story is about a woman who lived through the terror of incest and overcame the devastation that comes with such a trauma. It is not a story of self-pity. It is a story of victory and offers hope to anyone who has fallen prey to the type of spirit that would try so viciously to destroy a person's very soul and rid them of their destiny. If you have loved, been rejected, divorced, had your dreams stolen from you, been used, abused, molested, raped, a victim of incest, you may find yourself in my story, THE STORY OF ME. My story is in no way intended to directly advise the reader of what he or she should do if they are struggling through the healing process in the aftermath of incest. I am telling how I struggled and grew through my own pain. It is intended to point the reader into the direction of Jesus Christ. He was my salvation and is my hope for tomorrow. This book is dedicated to the body of Christ and is intended to bruise the head of the Serpent as the Lord himself did over two thousand years ago. Spector, Joel (illustrator).…
