- Abraham s Tears - is the story about a Palestinian/Muslim family living near Detroit, an Israeli/Jewish family living near LA, an Australian/Christian and German/Atheist-Bahai families who, without knowing each other, independently arrive in the same place in Jerusalem, at the same time and experience the same horrific event. The survivors follow Mohandas Gandhi advice, An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind and seek to work to live together in peace rather than seek retaliation or retribution. Jamil Mansour and Jacob Goodman each learn something about their heritage which causes them to reassess exactly what religion is to them. Because of a biology/genetics college course Jamil who grew up believing he was a Shiite learns he was actually born a Sunni which he hated and repeatedly badmouthed. Jacob, who had been Bar Mitzvah and was now serving in the IDF, needed to have his blood tested to see if was a suitable bone marrow donor because his sister had aplastic anemia and learns he was adopted. He had been born to an Arab Muslim family! While the conventional wisdom that the Middle East conflict is either due to the ethnicity differences between Israelis and Palestinians or religious differences between Jews and Muslims, or both, a reasoned argument is set forth that Middle East conflict is neither an issue of ethnicity nor of religion but rather a matter that one party has something that they both want.

The first Civil War was the bloodiest conflict in American history–but the second civil war is worse. When Texas secedes from the Union, Henry and Suzanne Wilkins are as broken as the rest of America. They are breaking up, hurting, and longing for a way to make it right. Then Henry's clandestine counter-terror unit is ambushed and they must get home, crossing the bleeding country, hunted by the relentless and powerful Directors who will stop at nothing to prevent him from revealing the conspiracy that triggered the war. From the snow-swept slopes of the Rocky Mountains, to mangrove swamps deep in the Everglades back-country, Henry and Suzanne must protect what they love, facing terrible truths about themselves and those they trusted most. They are America–flawed and betrayed–but worth fighting for.

In the annals of Christendom, the epoch wherein Saint Augustine strode the earth was a crucible of spiritual fervor, wherein the depths of sin and the heights of sanctity commingled. 'Twas a period where the contours of early Church doctrine were shaped amidst tumultuous debates and fierce introspections. As we embark on dissecting the fabric of such an era, we find that penitence and piety were not merely aspects of religious decorum but vital strands interwoven into the very essence of Christian life. The rippling influence of Augustine's own journey-a path that saw him traverse the terrains of hedonism and emerge into the light of divine grace-is indelibly etched into the practices that define the Church today. His thoughts on penitence vermilion threads in the ecclesiastical tapestry, mark an evolution from ancient ritual to heartfelt contrition. Central to the observances of this period was the sacramental grace that flowed through the act of penance, cultivating a landscape abundant with the language of repentance. It's within this confluence of earthly failings and heavenly aspirations that Augustine's reflections resonate; his teachings gleam like beacons illuminating the pathways towards God's merciful embrace. Divine intercession is epitomized in portrayals of sacred figures across scriptural texts; Augustine's exegetical work embraced this dynamic robustly. He construed Old Testament passages as foreshadowing the Christian requisites for true contrition and viewed the acts of figures such as King David-his penitential psalms especially-as archetypal for Christian remorse and redemption (Brown, 2000). In Augustine's purview, penance wasn't solely a private undertaking; instead, it was interlaced with the communal fabric of the Church. His explications enshrined the idea that collective acknowledgement of transgression could lead to profound unity in seeking divine pardon. The resonance of Augustine's spiritual ethos is palpable when considering the universal signs of penitence-most conspicuously, in the ritualistic imposition of ashes. His influence colors the rite not as a mere tradition but as a symbol potent with meaning and a gateway to human humility before God's majesty (Russell, 1981). To fathom Augustine's weighty contributions to penitential doctrine, one must delve into the zeitgeist of his day-a time enshrouded with profound grappling between sin and righteousness. Augustinian thought elucidated the inexorable link between man's fallen nature and the sanctifying grace that beckons through penance. The textured understanding of such ancient piety cannot be overstated; it's through Augustine that one discerns the nascent forms of religious practices that now feel timeless. His portrayal of our mortal coil as a pilgrimage back to Our Creator is etched in his homilies and texts, which remain pivotal in Church teachings and personal meditations on divine forgiveness.

Ancient stories from the Bible offer lessons for today's world "Little has changed over the millennia. Our existence remains suspended between the realm of the eternal and the elemental plane of the material world. This tension pulls at our hearts and minds as we attempt to find our true selves in relationship to each other and to God. This is the crucible of our lives: the true test of our powers of strength and conviction in the face of adversity, our wrestling with the range of human emotion, from jealousy and rage to kindness, sacrifice, and generosity toward the ones we love." --from the Introduction With insight, thoughtfulness and wit, these provocative and entertaining re-imaginings of stories from the Bible highlight the ways God can work for and through us, even today: Barren and despairing Sarah becomes pregnant--learning that nothing is impossible. Jacob the trickster is, in turn, tricked into marrying the wrong wife--learning that what goes around comes around. Joseph is sold into slavery by his brothers, only to rise to wield power of life and death over them--learning that patience and integrity will win out in the end. Through multifaceted characters, original stories and vivid natural imagery, Caduto brings this ancient world to life. He immerses you in a richly-textured experience of another time and place. Within these pages you will come to see these familiar tales through new eyes.

In 1862, in the midst of a bloody civil war, President Abraham Lincoln and his wife Mary, suffered unspeakable heartache when their young son died. To combat her grief, First Lady Mary Lincoln became a devotee of Spiritualism making the White House a center for Washington, D.C.'s Spiritualist community. For decades historians have maintained that President Lincoln only attended a few seances in an attempt to protect his mentally unstable wife. This narrative is incorrect, using a host of previously neglected primary sources, historian Michelle L. Hamilton documents the numerous seances President Lincoln attended and the interest he had for the religion. Michelle L. Hamilton's "I Would Still Be Drowned in Tears" sheds new light onto the Lincolns' interest in Spiritualism and proves that Mary Lincoln might not have been the only Spiritualist in the White House. "Perhaps now we can frankly admit, without ridicule or condemnation, the role Spiritualism played in the lives of Abraham and Mary,"--William Weeks, Ph.D., San Diego State University

In this discursive commentary Joseph Blenkinsopp explores the story of Abraham -- iconic ancestor of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam -- as told in Genesis 11-25. Presented in continuous discussion rather than in verse-by-verse form, Blenkinsopp s commentary focuses on the literary and theological artistry of the narrative as a whole. Blenkinsopp discussses a range of issues raised in the Abraham saga, including confirmation of God s promises, Isaac s sacrifice and the death of Jesus, and Abraham s other beloved son, Ishmael. Each chapter has a section called Filling in the Gaps, which probes some of the vast amount of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic commentary that the basic Genesis text has generated through the ages. In an epilogue Blenkinsopp looks at Abraham in early Christianity and expresses his own views, as a Christian, on Abraham. Readers of Blenkinsopp s Abraham: The Story of a Life will surely come away with a deeper, richer understanding of this seminal ancient figure.

What does God require? A humble heart, a willing spirit, and a life that He can control. God called Abraham to be His chosen vessel. And from him came Isaac and Jacob, and Jacob became Israel, from whom the Messiah was born. Through the obedience of one man, God accomplished what He wanted. He loved His creation too much to let them be, so he came down and rescued his chosen ones from their own self destruction. God Almighty called Abraham when he was a pagan, deeply involved with the cult of his fathers era. He desperately wanted to get out, but that was his culture and attempting to escape would have left Abraham with nothing. His father owned everything and was in control of Abrahams life. And if he left, where would he have gone? How about you? Are you trying to escape from the One that can give you what world cant give you? The Bible is my inspiration. I took a journey with my Savior and He has guided me to write this book to let others know how much He loves us. God is serious about saving souls, for it is said in John 3:16, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting Life.
