We all have things in our life that we should know by now, but don’t. Absences in our knowledge and skillset that are frankly shameful in an adult. Things that would be too embarrassing to ask anyone to explain – except our very best friend. Listen in as Mel and Sue tackle their ignorance head on, asking each other to explain something that they still don’t know - but absolutely, as adults, should - from how to parallel park to fully understanding bread (why has it got all those holes in it? What, honestly, is yeast?).

The previous edition of this now-classic book revealed the existence and subversive manipulations of "economic hit men". John Perkins wrote that economic hit men (EHM) "are highly paid professionals who cheat countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars.

Step into the peeling corners of a sunlit nursery where shadows weave stories, and the wallpaper whispers secrets to the solitary occupant. The Yellow Wallpaper is a haunting exploration of the fine line between reality and madness, told through the intimate, unraveling voice of a woman confined by both a stifling room and the suffocating norms of her time. In this groundbreaking work, Gilman transforms the mundane into the menacing, using the seemingly innocent patterns of wallpaper to reveal a tapestry of despair, resilience, and suppressed creativity.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman, (1860 - 1935), gained much of her fame with lectures on women's issues, ethics, labor, human rights, and social reform. She often referred to these themes in her fiction. She is best remembered for her 1892 short story "The Yellow Wallpaper", which was based on her own bout with severe depression and misguided medical treatment.

It is very seldom that mere ordinary people like John and myself secure ancestral halls for the summer. A colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity—but that would be asking too much of fate! Still I will proudly declare that there is something queer about it. Else, why should it be let so cheaply? And why have stood so long untenanted? John laughs at me, of course, but one expects that in marriage. John is practical in the extreme.

If you long to know God more intimately, experience God more intensely, and commune with God more closely, Harrison Perkins has good news. While many Christians are waiting on God to show up in extraordinary experiences, God is already moving in ordinary ways. These blessings are available to us in the God-appointed practices we find in a good local church—the Word, the sacraments, and prayer. With clarity and warmth, Perkins unpacks how each of these means of grace uniquely draws us into communion with Christ, shaping our worship into a life-giving encounter with God's grace.

In The Fall of Rome, eminent historian Bryan Ward-Perkins argues that the "peaceful" theory of Rome's "transformation" is badly in error. Indeed, he sees the fall of Rome as a time of horror and dislocation that destroyed a great civilization, throwing the inhabitants of the West back to a standard of living typical of prehistoric times. Attacking contemporary theories with relish and making use of modern archaeological evidence, he looks at both the wider explanations for the disintegration of the Roman world and also the consequences for the lives of everyday Romans.
