How might Christian ethics change if we identified human and divine nature with the freedom and power of creativity? What if God was not, first and foremost, the ethical authority of the universe, and we were not meant to be God's obedient followers? Holy Immoral retraces three familiar foci of the biblical narrative - the stories of the Garden of Eden, of the covenant on Sinai, and of the life and death of Jesus - to offer us a glimpse of a spirituality grounded in an interpretation of the self as the sacred, creative image of God, a self that it is our spiritual work to develop and enjoy. Part journal and part theology, this short, incisive analysis of biblical text throws into question some of the deepest assumptions held in Western Christianity about the self and God. Holy Immoral is a call to reflection, to discussion, and to a fresh, new way of thinking about Christian ethics.

Reasonable and Holy addresses the conflict over homosexuality within the Anglican tradition, demonstrating that the church is able to provide for and support faithful and loving relationships between persons of the same sex, not as a departure from that tradition, but as a reasonable extension of it. It offers a carefully argued, but accessible means of engagement with Scripture, the Jewish and Christian traditions, and the use of reason in dealing with the experience and lives of fellow-Christians. Unlike most reflections on the topic of homosexuality, Reasonable and Holy examines same-sex relationships through the lens of the traditional teaching on the “ends” or “goods” of marriage: procreation, union, the upbuilding of society, the symbolic representation of Christ and the Church, and the now often unmentioned “remedy for fornication.” Throughout, it responds to objections based on reason, tradition and Scripture. Based on a series of popular blog posts, it includes a number of independent, but related resources in the form of side-bars and single-page expansions of particular themes, suitable for reproduction as handouts.

If you are trapped in an immoral relationship, bound by a damaging behavior, or just heading down a path of destruction, there is help God still loves you, and He will give you the strength to change if you will return to Him. Counseling centers overflow with marriages splintered by infidelity, spouses addicted to pornography, and teenagers acting promiscuously. Yet, human sexuality is not wicked God invented it. Unfortunately, fallen humans and society have warped it into something God never intended. While not immune from temptations, Christians can learn to live as God intended. In Courage to Flee, Dr. Jeffrey Klick presents the challenges of human sexuality from a Biblical perspective. He defines the struggles that play out in our minds and assault our senses. Using the Word of God, he succinctly explains how to avoid and overcome sexual temptation, escape the traps of immorality, and raise our children with positive values. He writes with humor, using personal anecdotes and specific tools to help anyone who is honestly trying to stay or become morally pure. Dr. Klick s message is one of hope. God is not appalled by failure. He loves us and understands our frailties. Victory over the world s temptations is possible for those who seek His answers. With help from Courage to Flee freedom can be gained and forgiveness through a mighty God will become a reality.

This book shows just what cruelty and a critical look at the morals of Holy Scripture and argue that they're not all they're cracked up to be. You'll be gone into the Bible's most famous stories, in both the Old and New Testaments, and lays bare their bad ethics and terrible advice. Whether the good books are much more likely to lead us astray or teach us to be virtuous? Nevertheless, one thing is certain that anyone who reads this work will think twice before sending their children to Sunday School.

Keeping God at the Center is informative as well as instructional. It contains four kinds of teaching: first, insights derived from pondering the meaning of selected phrases and prayers from the traditional liturgy; second: four chapters on the personalist theology behind traditional Jewish prayer; third, meditations on the liturgy and clear instructions on how to pray certain prayers; and, fourth, instructions on how to pray certain prayers mystically. Both those well-acquainted with the prayerbook and those completely unfamiliar with it will be able to derive benefit from this book. It is a continuation of the main themes of Blumenthal’s earlier work in Jewish spirituality, theology, and mysticism.

How well do we know the most famous book of all time? "The Immoral Bible" offers a critical look at the morals of Holy Scripture, and argues that they're not all they're cracked up to be. At once honest, provocative and witty, James Rauthner guides us through the Bible's most famous stories, in both the Old and New Testaments, and lays bare their bad ethics and terrible advice. He demolishes the notion of the Bible as a moral guide, proving that the "Good Book" is much more likely to lead us astray than teach us to be virtuous.From Proverbs' absurd financial advice to Jesus' twisted family values, "The Immoral Bible" offers plenty of food for thought for Christians and non-Christians alike. One thing is certain: anyone who reads this work will think twice before sending their children to Sunday School."We need this book. When many people still believe their morality comes from the Bible, this book shows just what cruelty, revenge and wickedness this 'holy' book actually contains." -- Professor Susan Blackmore, author of "The Meme Machine"
