We all want to be loved, to be included, and to be safe. Often, life puts us in positions of deep pain, betrayal, and open vulnerability directly at the mercy of the cold, stiff, and unrelenting people with power. It is in these times that we have a choice—to lean into God or to grasp for worldly coping mechanisms to help us get through. Raped but Not Forgotten shows us how God meets us in the secret places and ministers to us in our deep need. Through the eloquent exploration of her own personal story and the biblical stories of sexual abuse, Jessie calls us to a closer trusting in God.

Autonomy is either relational or it does not exist at all. Absolute individualism is a mental construct abstracted from an irreducibly relational biosphere. Human life finds itself in and is realized by relationships with other beings. This book gazes on the fact that individualism is irredeemably contingent on relationality. Significant as self-consciousness is, consciousness of the other as a fellow self is a higher consciousness. It is the consciousness of the other selves that is the basis of ethics and morality.

Samuel Sutton Jr. grew up poor in Kinston, North Carolina. His childhood home had no central heat or hot water. He and his family walked seven miles roundtrip to church every Sunday.

"Wisdom is riding on a passenger train of time on a collision course with destiny, and we are all in for the ride. This book is about wisdom riding on this train." These words, as part of the introduction of the book, set the specific context and overall challenge and purpose for this book. Here, wisdom is likened to a lady riding on the train of civilization past prominence in a social, political, and spiritual direction. But the book argues in recent times, she has been forced to ride in the back of the train. Now we live in a vast field of folly. How do we find our way out?

Cyprus gained independence in 1960 without a strong national identity. Citizens considered themselves Greeks or Turks, not Cypriots. Ethnic pride, reinforced by proximity to both countries, inflamed the majority of the population, and was encouraged by the historic rivalry between the two homelands. While examining the nation-state as an institution, I discovered a mechanism I now call transnational nationalism. Analysis of the Cypriot crisis of 1974 gives further insight into cultural politics in lands such as Northern Ireland, Lebanon, Palestine, and Bosnia-Herzegovina.

The Biblical History of the Liberal, and of Conservatism came about through some discussion of the 2016 campaigns and the ways and means of the various parties in their attempt to be the winner in 2016. There was a noted difference in the way of those leaning to the leftward end of the political spectrum and of those leaning to the right side. There was quite a bit said regarding these two main ways, and the idea came across to make note of those observations. How far back did we go in our discussions? A ways, and in a general way, we went back to biblical times.

Much has been written about America and what it has meant, not only to the North American region but to the world as well. We tend to focus on the positives of who we are and our accomplishments. Not everyone feels the same, as there are many descendants of those who were displaced by the European settlers. Those descendants are with us and still struggling to make a living in what used to be their land. Their struggle has been mostly ignored. The opinions expressed by some of those people are documented in this book, and they wait for answers to their plea for acceptance.
