-2020 Winner of the Booksellers' Best Patti Shenberger Award for Best First Book THE BADDEST B**** IN ROCK IS RUNNING AWAY. AGAIN.It's been fourteen years since rock singer Adelia Winters escaped the small town of Cherry Lake. But thanks to her father's death (and punching the president of her record label #sorrynotsorry), she's back. But the last thing she wants is to face the secrets-and the best friend-she left behind. Perfectionist Conor Ross doesn't take chances. Not with his body, his photography career, and certainly not with love. Fourteen years ago, he'd taken a chance and it ended with his best friend trampling his heart on her way out of town. Never again. He doesn't do messy, and there's no bigger mess than Adelia Winters. Fate clearly isn't interested in what either of them want, and a storm lands Adelia on Conor's couch. Between whiskey hangovers and rock song sing-alongs, they are forced to confront their broken friendship and the passion still blazing between them. If they can heal the wounds of the past, they might just have a future, but Adelia's disintegrating career is pulling her away, even as the town-and Conor-are calling her home. TW: body dysmorphia, orthexia, loss of parent, hoarding, referenced child neglect, referenced abuse, referenced survival s*x How to Stay is a full-length, emotional, sexy, snarky, small town contemporary romance. This steamy friends to lovers second-chance romance will give you all the feels. Bring tissues. ★★★★★ REVIEWS "A rock and roll ballad in book form." -Goodreads Review "How to Stay is a sweet romance and a poignant character study that will keep the reader enthralled." A-] -Lisa Fernandes, All About Romance "Do yourself a favor and buy this amazing second-chance romance about two broken people who find their missing pieces once again in each other." -Lyssa Kay Adams, author of the Bromance Book Club "This story has all the feels, and the kind of writing that swept me away and made me forget I was even reading a book. It's so detailed and nuanced and thoughtful, it's hard to believe this is a debut." -Stacy Gold, blogger and author of the Emerald Mountain romance series "This is a well-crafted, dreamy love story with a spiny sense of humor and a heart in full bloom." -Goodreads Review "Every character is beautifully flawed in a way that makes them human. Mitchell's poetic voice and richly painted world takes this book from an ordinary indie debut to an extraordinary work of art." -Multi-Award-Winning Author, Heather Novak "The ending is happy but real. Life is messy, uncomfortable, complicated, sometimes sappy and ultimately beautiful." -Goodreads Review

The Aphrodite of Knidos and Her Successors

Christine Mitchell Havelock

Christine Mitchell Havelock's book takes a much- needed new look at some of the most famous icons of Western art: the nude statues that the Greeks produced to represent Aphrodite. The Aphrodite of Knidos, by master sculptor Praxiteles, is the leading example of this form. Other statues include the Capitoline and Medici Venuses, the Crouching Aphrodite and the Aphrodite of Melos--all of them indebted to Praxiteles.The author analyzes the meaning of the pose of the Aphrodite of Knidos, the significance of her nudity, and her architectural setting. A survey of the statue's reception and interpretation in Greek, Roman, and modern times offers an entirely new perspective on this major work of art.Among topics examined are Praxiteles' reported use of his mistress Phryne as his model, the "pudica gesture," and the importance of small-scale versions of statues for dating the larger sculptures. The author also considers the function and religious significance of the small statues, and she includes the cultural context offered by the erotic poetry of Propertius and Ovid, two Roman poets who were fascinated by the robing and disrobing of their mistresses.The Aphrodite of Knidos is a highly readable, broad-based volume of interest to anyone familiar with classical art and the ancient world. Christine Mitchell Havelock is Professor Emerita of Art History and Curator of the Classical Art Collection at Vassar College. She has written and lectured widely on Greek art.
Inventing Religion in the Persian Empire

Inventing Religion in the Persian Empire

Christine Mitchell

Bloomsbury Academic

This book argues that the kings of the Persian Empire, in contrast to their reputation as benevolent and tolerant rulers, exerted significant control over religious practices to the point of creating and regulating local religions. Recently published materials from different parts of the empire, along with well-known finds, show the Persian rulers and administrators as obsessive micro-managers in many areas: so why would religious and local cultural practices be any different? Drawing on case studies from different parts of the central and western empire—the areas with the most evidence— Christine Mitchell shows the impact the Persians had on their subjects in Persia, Babylonia, Anatolia, Egypt, and Judea. In deconstructing the myth of Persian imperial benevolence by critically reviewing the ideology of the Persian royal inscriptions, this book offers a new interpretation of the Empire’s religious policy, one that argues for a much closer engagement of the state with local religious practice. This book is essential reading for anyone studying in the theory and methodology of the study of religion, as well as the Persian Empire and religion in antiquity.

Paul, Christian Textuality, and the Hermeneutics of Late Antiquity: Essays in Honor of Margaret M. Mitchell
The essays in the present volume celebrate the work of Margaret M. Mitchell (University of Chicago) by engaging, extending, and challenging her ground-breaking research in three areas: (1) the letters of Paul the Apostle, both authentic and pseudepigraphic; (2) the emergence and rapid development of early Christian literary culture over the first few centuries of the cult's existence; and (3) Late Antique interpretive practices and perspectives, particularly among patristic readers of the scriptures.

What if Your New Man had a Stronger Core? In Christian Posture, author David Parker Mitchell presents eight core doctrines hidden in the first few verses of Hebrews 6 in the New Testament. Whether you are a new believer or a seasoned follower of Christ, mastering these doctrines is like strengthening your spiritual "core." Just as strong abs stabilize the whole body and encourage a strong balanced posture, these truths will strengthen your walk with God and equip you for victory in the spiritual warfare that surrounds this fallen world. Pastor Mitchell, 45 years in the ministry (33 as Sr. Pastor of Park Meadows Church) and a fourth-generation entrepreneur, and Founder and President of TRADEWAY, a Christian Investment Advisory Firm, has a strong influence in what Billy Graham once called "marketplace evangelism." In the book, Pastor Mitchell takes you on a Bible tour through the landscape of the Early Church, through the transitional Apostolic Age, and into the present mature church age, all the way to the future battle of Armageddon. Along the way, he unpacks proper Bible interpretation skills for you to learn and practice. Christian Posture delves into the magnificent Doctrine of Christ, exploring questions like: How do you know Jesus is the Christ? What distinguishes faith in Christ, faith OF Christ, and faith toward Christ? How many resurrections are there and when does the rapture occur? How many baptisms are mentioned in the Bible? The book also examines the Judgment Seat of Christ and the Great White Throne Judgment. It addresses the controversial topic of sign gifts-are they relevant for today? And perhaps most importantly, the book answers the question that many ask: Can I know that my salvation is secure forever? The majestic doctrines of salvation by grace through faith and its components are covered with precision by Pastor Mitchell. Whether you are a new Christian or a seasoned believer, David Parker Mitchell encourages you with the knowledge that when you know what you believe and why, and your walk reflects it, you have a super-power that has a positive effect upon the world. Strengthening your core beliefs from the Bible will enhance your influence, and help you transform your family, your work, and your community. Christian Posture reminds you who you are in Christ and calls you to walk tall and stand straight as you reflect the light of Jesus Christ into a rapidly darkening world.
