The Church before Christianity / Wes Howard-Brook.

For early Christians "church" - from a world meaning "called out" - was not simply a Sunday morning battery charge for Monday morning's return to empire, but the basis for a complete society grounded in the presence of the Risen Jesus. Taking up where Albert Nolan left off, in his classic Jesus Before Christianity, Wes Howard-Brook shows how the "church before Christianity" can inspire and challenge a new awakening among Christians today.

Born in Civil War–era Cincinnati in 1857, William Howard Taft rose rapidly through legal, judicial, and political ranks, graduating from Yale and becoming a judge while still in his twenties. In 1900, President William McKinley appointed Taft to head a commission charged with preparing the Philippines for US-led civil government, setting the stage for Taft’s involvement in US-Philippine relations and the development of his imperial vision across two decades. While biographies of Taft and histories of US-Philippine relations are easy to find, few works focus on Taft’s vision for the Philippines that, despite a twenty-year crusade, would eventually fail. William Howard Taft and the Philippines fills this void in the scholarship, taking up Taft’s vantage point on America’s imperialist venture in the Philippine Islands between 1900 and 1921.Adam D. Burns traces Taft’s course through six chapters, beginning with his years in the islands and then following it through his tenure as President Roosevelt’s secretary of war, his term as president of the United States, and his life after departing the White House. Across these years Taft continued his efforts to forge a lasting imperial bond and prevent Philippine independence.Grounded in extensive primary source research, William Howard Taft and the Philippines is an engaging work that will interest scholars of Philippine history, American foreign policy, imperialism, the American presidency, the Progressive Era, and more.

Helping Howard explores the fraught lifetime marriage of a straight older man, his younger gay wife, and the daughter that survives them.An anti-romantic romance, this book tells the tale of The Author who awakens Howard into consciousness in order to become her accomplice in figuring out what happens next. Their ongoing dialogue pushes the story forward through quarrelsome, humorous, psychological cliffhangers. Playing with, and exposing, the creative process adds another dimension to the narrative as The Author creates a relationship with her main character, which in turn, reflects on who she is. Helping Howard is about people struggling with understanding their own barriers to achieving and sustaining intimacy. It's a complex story of human longing and unmet desire.--From the moment the Author hustles Howard out of bed and into the kitchen to make breakfast, we know we're on a literary adventure like no other. The Author wants her story; Howard wants to understand who he is and what he's done with his one wild and precious life. By turns comic, poignant, lacerating and profound, HELPING HOWARD probes the complex and ever-changing nature of love, and seeks to understand, in the deepest way possible, the ties that bind. Schloss has written a remarkable story; hers is a nimble, inventive and wholly original voice. -Kitty Zeldis, author of Not Our KindWhat a gorgeous novel Romantic, deeply humane, astonishingly clever and moving - this is a love story between author and character that continually makes one gasp, even as it delivers great truths. Thank you, Sally Schloss, for writing it. -Bonnie Friedman, bestselling author of Writing Past DarkIn Sally Schloss's insightful and engrossing novel, an Author writes a novel while regularly checking in with its real-life titular character. Howard is a kind and singularly tolerant man who has greatly compromised himself within his marriage. He nervously waits as the Author unveils each new phase of his life. Their ongoing conversation affords Howard-and the reader-a unique chance to see how his choices have at once enriched and undermined him. Schloss's writing is meticulous. -Patricia Grossman, author of Radiant Daughter.For those of you who delve into transactional dynamics as a profession this book is a fascinating must read. The characters engage in the all too typical tendencies of repeating the same patterns of behavior, thoughts, and feelings with their inevitable undesirable outcomes. The book sympathetically dramatizes how these underlying negative core beliefs affect these characters' lives over the course of their thirty-five-year marriage. -Robert Pazulinec Ed.D.

I am the believer and I am still here.I have seen and felt many failures along the way, and I am still here.I have seen the best and the worst come and go.I have seen great ones fall and stay down.I have seen small ones rise to the occasion and benefit us all.I am the believer and I am still here.Are you a believer?Sometimes it may seem like God is not listening to our prayers. With all of the pain and sorrow in this world, it is hard to believe there is hope on the horizon. Billy Howard's poetry is a reminder that God never promised us a world without pain, sadness, or hopelessness, but we must remember to look at all of the blessings he gives us that outweigh the painful moments.About the AuthorBilly Howard enjoys church activities, picnics, fishing, sports, and TV. He lives in Danville, KY.
Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation Against America

Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States has sold more than 2.5 million copies. It is pushed by Hollywood celebrities, defended by university professors who know better, and assigned in high school and college classrooms to teach students that American history is nothing more than a litany of oppression, slavery, and exploitation. Zinn's history is popular, but it is also massively wrong. Scholar Mary Grabar exposes just how wrong in her stunning new book Debunking Howard Zinn, which demolishes Zinn's Marxist talking points that now dominate American education. In Debunking Howard Zinn, you'll learn, contra Zinn: How Columbus was not a genocidal maniac, and was, in fact, a defender of IndiansWhy the American Indians were not feminist-communist sexual revolutionaries ahead of their timeHow the United States was founded to protect liberty, not white males' ill-gotten wealthWhy Americans of the "Greatest Generation" were not the equivalent of Nazi war criminals How the Viet Cong were not well-meaning community leaders advocating for local self-ruleWhy the Black Panthers were not civil rights leaders Grabar also reveals Zinn's bag of dishonest rhetorical tricks: his slavish reliance on partisan history, explicit rejection of historical balance, and selective quotation of sources to make them say the exact opposite of what their authors intended. If you care about America's past--and our future--you need this book.

A city boy with an attitude is forced to spend the summer with his missionary grandmother. His howling has some dire consequences. Howard, a 12-year-old beasty brat-an only child-lives in a city apartment with his single-parent mom. When he becomes too much of a pain for her to handle, she sends him for the summer to her mother in a small rural town. Howard tries to bug his retired-missionary grandmother enough that she'll get sick of him and send him packing back to his city friends. It's a battle of wits and wills that confronts him with some dire consequences. However, not used to being listened to, his mind and heart are opened in ways he never expected. Howard discovers his grandmother's hidden talents and the legacy of his own favorite pastime. Learning about himself, his family history, overcoming his whiny behavior and making new friends at the church he didn't want to attend, transforms a resistant brat into a likable boy with a caring heart and a bright future.
