Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The most divisive and damaging aspect of the church in America is the combination of racism and white supremacy that has been woven into the fabric of the church to the degree that one cannot discuss the church in America apart from this sin. Nowhere is this clearer than in American Methodism, including The United Methodist Church. That denomination, which has been divided for decades over issues regarding human sexuality and homosexuality, is a product of a long history of racism and white supremacy. While initiatives have been taken to address these matters, there has not been any effort to help the church focus on being anti-racist in its practices or public witness at every level, including local church levels. This is a book that identifies this sin and offers an innovative look at the mission of the church, based on biblical witnesses to new life with the resurrection. It offers proposals for reparations and renewal that will come when the church woke.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Entire neighborhoods in cities across the United States have become open-air asylums, drug markets, and impoverished wastelands--where death, misery, crime, addiction, encampments, fires, disease, and even human waste aren't just tolerated but normalized. How is this possible when billions of taxpayer dollars have been funneled into homelessness initiatives such as "Housing First"? The truth is that the money poured into this issue from taxpayers, non-profits, and private charities alike has mostly made homelessness worse overall. And governments' failures haven't just wasted taxpayer dollars--it has cost lives and undermined human dignity. This isn't just incompetence. It's immoral and unjust. And it must end. In Beyond Homeless: Good Intentions, Bad Outcomes, Transformative Solutions, Mary L. G. Theroux, Lawrence J. McQuillan, Adam B. Summers, and other scholars present a better approach rooted in proven solutions. This groundbreaking new book, based on years of research, is exactly what's needed to address the crisis. With forewords from acclaimed addiction medicine specialist and TV host Dr. Drew Pinsky, and licensed master social worker Scott Ackerson, the book gathers experts on every aspect of homelessness to present a stirring condemnation of the status quo--and an inspiring vision for the future. Drawing on real-life stories, cutting-edge research, and alternative programs with metric-driven successes, they make the case for individualized, holistic interventions that actually work. Discover: How "Housing First" initiatives have become governments' default response to homelessness--and why they fail Why permanent supportive housing (PSH) isn't just ineffective but dangerous How political interests fuel the homelessness-industrial complex resulting in ever-increasing spending while falling further behind The inspiring success of real alternatives such as Haven for Hope in Texas and Union Rescue Mission in Los Angeles Policy changes that would truly ease the crisis for the unhoused and housed alike--without breaking the bank The difference between responsible and irresponsible forms of harm reduction And much, much more. At the heart of this crisis are real people--those experiencing homelessness and the residents who see their neighborhoods crumble. Both have paid a high price for failed policies. Both deserve better. The good news? We can do better. Beyond Homeless: Good Intentions, Bad Outcomes, Transformative Solutions shows us how.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Finally, the truth from a Washington insider: An audacious and desperately needed primer on how America's Ruling Class have upended the Constitution and taken over our country--and how we must unite to regain control of our liberty. A Ruling Class have emerged in America against the hopes and designs of our Founders. Over the last hundred years, they have rejected the Constitution and expanded their own power, slowly at first and now rapidly. These people think that they are smarter than the rest of us--so smart that they can run our lives better than we can. But for all the power and resources at their command, they have failed. Miserably. Society has become increasingly unequal, even as we're promised equality. Our government finances are out of control, our basic infrastructure is broken, and education is unaffordable and mediocre. And yet the Ruling Class think the solution is for us to allow them ever more control. We can stop this--but to do so we must unite. In this immensely valuable book (MarketWatch), Lawrence Lindsey lays out his plan for how we can use common sense to change the way our country is run, eliminating government waste and fraud and the bureaucratic nightmares made possible by overregulation (Kirkus Reviews). We must reawaken the spirit upon which America was founded, with liberty for every person to pursue their own dreams.…
