For five decades, Sojourners magazine has been deeply engaged with the world while calling its readers to a new kind of life and faith rooted in justice and peace. This legacy stands in stark contrast to our culture, which too often links a person's value to the amount they produce or consume, pushing each of us to do and be more, fraying our connections and deadening our souls. As Christian nationalism and authoritarianism gain more and more cultural power, we don't need less soul, but more. We need a more resilient faith that can resist power and principalities and prophetically imagine an alternative world, centered in justice and love. Integral to this kind of prophetic faith is a commitment to simple spiritual practices and communal connections. Even in the most dire and demoralizing times, practices of contemplation, sabbath rest, and community offer sustenance and power. Light for the Way is a powerful, yet meditative collection of pieces from the last fifty years of Sojourners magazine, exploring how contemplative practices, rest, simplicity, environmental engagement, and communal care are essential for sustaining our resistance and repairing our world. And Sojourners continues that work today. With essays from beloved spiritual writers, including Julia Alvarez, Margaret Atwood, Walter Brueggemann, Kaitlin Curtice, Rosemarie Freeney Harding, and Richard Rohr, Light for the Way is a soulful companion."-- Jacket flaps.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5499200</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5499200</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5499200147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Seeking Simplicity, Connection, and Repair in A Broken World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798889835417/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life After Life]]></title><description><![CDATA["Todays cultural imagination of heaven often involves little more than chubby cherubs in tunics, pearly gates, ethereal clouds, glowing halos, and ceaseless singing.

Founded by Mary and Benjamin Purnell in Benton Harbor, Michigan, in 1903, the House of David soon blossomed into a vibrant faith community and booming business enterprise. Its members (migrants from across the United States and immigrants from around the world) were Christian Israelites, members of a millennialist faith who seek to assemble the remnants of the lost tribes of Israel in a new Jerusalem and believe this ingathering of 144,000 will never die. They relinquished all assets, practiced celibacy, and renounced meat, hair-cutting, and traditional family ties -- in exchange for community, economic security, and the promise of immortality. Working in the commune's complex business enterprises, they sought refuge from the abuses of industrial capitalism even as they brilliantly seized on the opportunities the economy had to offer. They also eagerly embraced popular culture by running a successful amusement park, performing in the colony's touring musical groups, and playing on barnstorming baseball teams that were the delight of audiences nationwide. This new religion thrived into the 1960s - and lingers on as a tiny remnant today -- despite a steady stream of financial and sexual scandals, a torrent of litigation, and obsessive coverage in the press. It defied these odds, and survived repeated threats to its religious freedom, to become one of the longest lasting intentional communities in United States history"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5498857</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5498857</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sterne, Evelyn Savidge]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5498857147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Salvation, Scandal, and Survival in A Modern American Commune</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780197792339/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is God A Vindictive Bully?]]></title><description><![CDATA["Leading apologetics author Paul Copan examines challenging Old Testament texts, placing them in their larger historical and theological context to help readers reconcile the seemingly disconnected natures of God portrayed in the Old and New Testaments."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5475772</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5475772</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Copan, Paul]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5475772147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Reconciling Portrayals of God in the Old and New Testaments</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781540964557/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Christian Apologetics]]></title><description><![CDATA["The Christian faith offers people hope.

When Italian journalist Father Antonio Spadaro and Martin Scorsese first sat down together in Scorsese's home, neither could have predicted the depth of the conversation, intellectual exchange, or friendship that would result. While discussing the acclaimed director's film Silence, about the persecution of Jesuits in Japan, they began a dialogue about faith that continues to this day. In their often-profound conversations, he and Father Spadaro have left no stone unturned, discussing this relationship along with everything from Scorsese's childhood to the concept of the soul. And as a result of their long friendship and communication, Scorsese met with Pope Francis.

Join an unforgettable journey through the birth, ministry, and deathof the Messiah as found in the Old and New Testaments, and have your own life transforming experience. When reading the Bible we often miss essential details that add richness and significance, and therefore don't grasp the bigger picture. New York Times bestselling author Rabbi Jason, in his unique and engaging way, helps readers see God's story in high definition, enabling them to better understand thecultural and historical background of Scripture, God's intention for every detail, and how it applies to our lives. Revealing hidden gems of prophecy and promises, Transformed by the Messiah helps answerquestions such as : Why does Genesis 3 talk about the 'seed of a woman?' Is there any significance to the fact that Jesus was born in Bethlehem? Who are the shepherds and why was it important that the baby be found wrapped in swaddling cloth and laid in a manger? What does it mean to 'live from the eight?' How does Messiah's baptism set an example for us to emulate and what did it undo? Why were the disciples so willing to immediately drop their nets, leave their families, and follow Jesus? Did the Messiah have to die on a cross and why did he not rise until the third day? You'll also learn how to respond with faith, not fear ; trust God's plan, purpose, and provision ; and move forward in the power of the Spirit. If you need hope, or simply a better understanding of God's plan of redemption for all mankind and your part in it, Transformed by the Messiah will open your heart and mind to be able to live in the supernatural power of God's Spirit as you follow Jesus and His command to make disciples.

And when you know how deeply you're loved, you can step forward boldly, even when the odds are stacked against you.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5413320</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5413320</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tebow, Tim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5413320147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Recognize your Worth, Renew your Hope, Run With Confidence</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781400254200/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heart of A Stranger]]></title><description><![CDATA["From the first Asian American to be ordained as a rabbi, a stirring account of one woman's journey from feeling like an outsider to becoming one of the most admired religious leaders in the world Angela Buchdahl was born in Korea and grew up in Tacoma, Washington, the daughter of a Korean Buddhist mother and Jewish American father. Profoundly spiritual from a young age, felt a connection to God when only a child and felt the first stirrings to become a rabbi at age sixteen. Despite the naysayers and periods of self-doubt-would a mixed-race woman ever be seen as authentically Jewish and entitled to lead a congregation-she stayed the course, which took her first to Yale, then to rabbinical school, cantorial school, and finally to the pulpit of one of the largest, most influential congregations in the world. Today, Angela Buchdahl is revered by Jews and non-Jews alike for her invigorating, joyful approach to worship, and her belief in the power of faith, gratitude, and responsibility for each other, regardless of religion. She does not shy away from challenging topics, be it racism within the Jewish community to sexism she confronted when she aspired to the top job. Buchdahl has also been a sought-after leader and voice through some of the most challenging moments in recent history, from the murder of George Floyd to the hostage standoff in Colleyville, Texas to the horrors of October 7th. Buchdahl's consistent message is that it is up to us to strive for a world of more humanity, especially in today's challenging times. Angela Buchdahl has gone from outsider to officiant, from feeling estranged to feeling embraced-and she's emerged with a deep feeling of being bound to a larger whole and mission. Here, she has written a book that is both a memoir and a spiritual guide for everyday living, which is exactly what so many of us crave right now"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5415371</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5415371</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Buchdahl, Angela]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5415371147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>An Unlikely Rabbi&apos;s Story of Faith, Identity, and Belonging</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593490174/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Anxious Generation Goes to Church]]></title><description><![CDATA[A new generation is going to church. But is the church ready? Theculture is at inflection point. Nearly two-thirds of Gen Zers reported experiencing at least one mental health problem in the past two years. This statistic was lower for all older generations, including Millennials (51%), Gen Xers (29%) and Boomers (14%). Gen Z is the loneliest generation of Americans, lacking deep relationships and offline connection. Sixty-eight percent of Gen Z feel like nobody knows them well. That is one reason why this generation is called the anxious generation. Researchers have identified everything from socialmedia to pandemic lockdowns as the prime culprit of why Gen Z is struggling with issues like mental illness more than other generations. Thom Rainer views the church as God's Plan A for helping this generation discover their true calling and thrive in a purposeful and genuine faith community. In this book, Thom explores research that reveals that the anxious generation is yearning for meaningful community and is waiting to be invited in. The Anxious Generation Goes to Church : presents research on the anxious generation that engenders hope for the future of the church ; describes the unique challenges for the anxious generation as well as their dreams and goals ; provides strategy and inspiration for church leaders who want to prepare believers to provide help and hope"-- Back cover.]]></description><link>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5410331</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5410331</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rainer, Thom S.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://flatriver.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5410331147</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>What the Research Says About What Younger Generations Need (and Want) From your Church</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781496449221/MC.GIF&amp;client=lakep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Biblio Diet]]></title><description><![CDATA["Nutrition experts Jordan Rubin and Dr. Josh Axe offer a simple and holistic plan for building strength, health, and longevity.
