Around the turn of the twentieth century, the formation of the U.S.-Mexico border through the rise of capitalism brought new forms of violence, this time codified in law, land surveys, and capitalist land and resource regimes-the markers of modernity and progress that were the hallmarks of Gilded Age America and Porfirian Mexico. Military units, settlers, and boosters dispossessed Southern Apache peoples of their homelands and attempted to erase the histories of Mexican colonists in the Lower Mimbres Valley region. As a result, people of multiple racial and national identities came together to forge new border communities. In Raid and Reconciliation Brandon Morgan examines the story of Pancho Villa’s 1916 raid on Columbus, New Mexico-an event that has been referenced in various histories of the border and the Mexican Revolution but not contextualized on its own-and shows that violence was integral to the modern capitalist development that shaped the border. Raid and Reconciliation provides new insights into the Mexican Revolution and sheds light on the connections between violence and modernization. Lessons from this border story resonate in today’s debates over migration, race, and what it means to be an American.

A harmony of the gospels is a compilation of the four gospel accounts into one accurate narrative. Since each of the gospels were centralized around one man, Jesus Christ, they can be harmonized together to create a unique gospel account that details the complete life and ministry of Jesus Christ without forfeiting the integrity of the original passages. The study materials presented within The Complete Guide to the Gospels range from, but are not limited to, exegetical interpretations of the original Greek New Testament text, apologetical defense for the ordinary Christian, diverse scholarly dialogues concerning isolated passages, and historical background information to better enlighten the scope of the passage being read. These study tools paired with the harmony of the gospels equips the reader with The Complete Guide to the Gospels
