The third of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse is supposed to bring inflation and famine on an unprecedented scale. But what is the real cause of inflation? What are the real causes of famine? Most famines are the direct results of government’s deliberate decisions. Germany sank into the most severe hyperinflationary period in recorded history after printing 1.3 trillion marks: that translates to about four trillion in today’s dollars. Ironically, that is almost exactly the same amount of money the United States government has printed since 2008.

This is a book about hope in the midst of a polarized culture. Camosy begins with a hopeful starting point in the midst of a crumbling US political culture: two of every three Americans constitute an “exhausted majority” who reject right/left polarization and are open to alternative viewpoints.

When we start with the wrong question, no matter how good an answer we get, it won't give us the results we want. Rather than joining the throngs who are asking, When will this economic crisis be over? Jim Wallis says the right question to ask is "How will this crisis change us?" The worst thing we can do now, Wallis tells us, is to go back to normal. Normal is what got us into this situation.

A very wise physician has said that "every illness has two parts - what it is, and what the patient thinks about it." What the patient thinks about it is often more important and more troublesome than the real disease. What the patient thinks of life, what life means to him is also of great importance and may be the bar that shuts out all real health and happiness....

Ahead of the pivotal 2020 elections, momentum is building across America to revisit the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that struck down laws protecting unborn children and their mothers nationwide. Life is Winning: Inside the Fight for Unborn Children and Their Mothers tells the story of how the pro-life cause went from an orphaned political “problem” to a winning issue embraced at the highest levels of the Republican Party, thanks to a small-but-ambitious group of pro-life women.

You have been lied to. UFOs are real, and not some figment of the public’s imagination, which we have been led to believe. This deception has gone on for far too long, and it’s time we, the public deceived, fight back. Philip Kinsella brings together several theoretical applications concerning what the UFO phenomenon may represent.

Racism is omnipresent in American life, both public and private. We are immersed in what prominent Black church leader Willie Dwayne Francois III calls white noise—the racist speech, ideas, and policies that lull us into inaction on racial justice. White noise masks racial realities and prevents constructive responses to microaggressions, structural inequality, and overt interpersonal racism. In this book, Francois calls people of all racial backgrounds to take up practices that overcome silence and inaction on race and that advance racial repair.

The Bible has been hijacked. We’ve all seen examples of sacred scripture being used to justify racism, sexism, reactionary politics, and violence. If you have ever found yourself wondering what Bible some of your fellow believers are reading, then you are not alone. With a foreword from Brian McLaren, Who Stole My Bible?: Reclaiming Scripture as a Handbook for Resisting Tyranny shows how the Bible is an inspiring handbook for finding your voice for speaking truth.

If you, like me, realize that God’s grace in allowing Jesus to take our punishment for sin means that He deserves no less than to be to first on our priority list, the hub that holds the spokes of our life wheel, the main thing (have I used enough Christian cliches here?), then the question becomes, what does this mean for me as a public school teacher? The courts have decided that we represent the government, and as such, we must be careful about how we live our faith in front of our students. How, then, do we follow the Great Commission and still teach with integrity?

This book will shake the foundations of science and reshape the official explanations about most of what we know. Huntington has a special talent for finding shockingly simple truths. He starts by explaining that all matter is made of material light particles (including antimatter and all subatomic particles), shows why the archaic electromagnetic theory of light is false, disproves the expanding universe theory with a few simple pictures, describes the possibility of neuron reading and writing, that a neutron is probably just a hydrogen atom, and many more important science truths.

Many Christian parents oppose our godless American culture, but how many of us are willing to put our money where our mouth is? In this spicy but short book, Douglas Wilson calls for Christian parents to remove their kids from public schools. Beginning with the commands in Scripture for parents to raise up their children in the “fear and admonition of the Lord”, he shows that parents cannot and should not send their children to be catechized by unbelieving teachers and peers.

What is the true nature and mission of the church? Is its proper Christian purpose to save souls, or to transform the social order? This question is especially fraught when the church is one built by an enslaved people and formed, from its beginning, at the center of an oppressed community's fight for personhood and freedom. Such is the central tension in the identity and mission of the Black church in the United States.
