A Rabbi and a Preacher Go to a Pride Parade

A Rabbi and a Preacher Go to a Pride Parade

Bert Montgomery

Smyth Helwys Publishing, Incorporated
2019
pokkari
Here, finally assembled together in one collection, are Bert Montgomery's LGBTQ-related musings, columns, and sermons. Bert uses humor, stories, and the Holy Scriptures to challenge the heresy of homophobia within the church and to call for full inclusion and affirmation-in both church and civic life-of our LGBTQ family members, friends, and neighbors. And yes, a rabbi and a preacher really did go to a Pride parade Bert Montgomery lives in Starkville, Mississippi, cheers for the Mississippi State Bulldogs, writes, teaches, and is even called "pastor" by a few hearty souls. His previous books include Psychic Pancakes & Communion Pizza, and Elvis, Willie, Jesus & Me.Praise for A Rabbi and a Preacher Go to a Pride Parade"Sometimes we make love sound so complicated, when it's all pretty simple. Hold a hand, walk a parade, or just simply say 'I want to be your friend.' Personable and sincere. Bert shares his heart for making every person in Starkville, Mississippi, his truly cherished neighbor. His writings remind me that the Christian experience isn't about building up a fence of protection, but rather daring to allow love to lead us out of hiding and into the light of a brilliant life." - Jennifer Knapp, musician
Ventoux

Ventoux

Bert Wagendorp

World Editions Ltd
2019
pokkari
A moving and hilarious feel-good novel about male friendship, romance, intrigue, treachery and cycling.During the summer of 1982, a group of friends — five boys and one girl — travel to French Provence, three of whom climb the legendary Mont Ventoux on their bicycles. A tragic accident claims the life of one of them, the promising young poet, Peter. Thirty years later, the old friends return to conquer the mountain and the demons of their past. Ventoux is both a hilarious and insightful portrait of a generation and a stunningly accurate depiction of male friendship. It's a glorious tragicomedy for everyone who loves to read a well-crafted feel-good novel and especially recommended for cycling aficionados who will recognise Mont Ventoux as the scene of many classic races. 'Wagendorp's book manages to be funny, shrewd, and moving, with a complex structure that never feels cumbersome, and a finale so intense that you want to read it very slowly, almost one word at a time.' — The Guardian 'A wonderful blend of humor, suspense, and poignancy, which will appeal to non-cyclists as well as those of us who understand what it takes to scale a mountain as evocative, daunting, and symbolic as Mont Ventoux."' — Felix Lowe, author of Climbs & Punishment

Introduction to Topology

Introduction to Topology

Bert Mendelson

2019
pokkari
Highly regarded for its exceptional clarity, imaginative and instructive exercises, and fine writing style, this concise book offers an ideal introduction to the fundamentals of topology. Originally conceived as a text for a one-semester course, it is directed to undergraduate students whose studies of calculus sequence have included definitions and proofs of theorems. The book's principal aim is to provide a simple, thorough survey of elementary topics in the study of collections of objects, or sets, that possess a mathematical structure.The author begins with an informal discussion of set theory in Chapter 1, reserving coverage of countability for Chapter 5, where it appears in the context of compactness. In the second chapter Professor Mendelson discusses metric spaces, paying particular attention to various distance functions which may be defined on Euclidean n-space and which lead to the ordinary topology.Chapter 3 takes up the concept of topological space, presenting it as a generalization of the concept of a metric space. Chapters 4 and 5 are devoted to a discussion of the two most important topological properties: connectedness and compactness. Throughout the text, Dr. Mendelson, a former Professor of Mathematics at Smith College, has included many challenging and stimulating exercises to help students develop a solid grasp of the material presented.
The Sign of the Cross: Recovering the Power of the Ancient Prayer
The sign of the cross finds its roots in the earliest centuries of the Church and is used today by millions of Christians worldwide. But it is all too easy to make this sign in a routine and superficial way at the beginning and end of a prayer, failing to recognize its true significance. In The Sign of the Cross: Recovering the Power of the Ancient Prayer, Bert Ghezzi reminds us that the sign of the cross is a prayer in itself--one that bears great spiritual power. Ghezzi offers a short history of the sign of the cross and then highlights several key truths to reflect upon as we make this sign. By making the sign of the cross, we open ourselves to God and confess our faith in the Trinity; we renew our Baptism, choosing to live the supernatural life that we received through it; we affirm and declare ourselves as disciples of Christ, and accept and embrace suffering in union with his suffering; we repel the devil, reminding him of the victory of Christ on the cross; and we resist our self-indulgence and tendency toward sin. The sign of the cross sums up our Christian life and vocation, and calls us to embrace the will of God and to reject everything that is opposed to it. This simple but profound act of faith affirms God's love for us and opens us up to the spiritual power he wants to release in our lives.
