In Dear Genesis, Martin Luther demonstrates that the free Evangelical faith he championed is not a modern invention, but a belief rooted deeply in the very first book of the Bible. This faith transcends mere rituals and institutions, thriving instead in the genuine conviction of Christ within our hearts and lives. Genesis offers the only historical accounts from the first 2,364 years of the 4,004 years leading to Christ, making it as relevant today as it was during the Reformation. This second volume of Luther’s profound commentary on Genesis explores chapters four through nine, shedding ...

In the early days of ancient Greece, queer love was celebrated. The most famous warrior in antiquity loved another man, the poet whose lyrics were memorised by philosophers and kings sang of her desire for women. Men could swear oaths of undying love and live out the rest of their lives together in peace. What fragments survive of this ancient world all tell us one thing: it was not a sin to be queer.

In this riveting new book, John Rhodehamel argues that Booth’s primary motivation for his heinous crime was a growing commitment to white supremacy.
