Where Breaking Bad meets the burning bush, a modern-day story of miraculous redemption that only God could do.

What should we do? That is the question at the heart of the Christian life. Outlining the distinctive elements of Christian ethics, this updated edition of Moral Choices: Audio Lectures, designed to go alongside the Moral Choices, 5th Edition textbook, reflects upon a variety of ethical issues...

«La vita non è fatta di aggettivi ― buono, cattivo, intelligente, negligente, ribelle ― ma di verbi. Nascere, crescere, studiare, lavorare, amare, odiare, parlare, ascoltare. Se poi i verbi li coniughi, allora ti accorgerai del capolavoro che hai davanti.» Don Mazzi non si è mai lasciato fermare dalle etichette dei perbenisti e dei benpensanti, non ha mai smesso di cercare le persone nascoste dietro gli errori, gli insuccessi, le colpe.

Is real friendship too risky? We live in a world where real friendship is hard to find. Suspicious of others and insecure about ourselves, we retreat into the safety of our small, self-made digital worlds. Tragically, even the church can become a place that reinforces this isolation. Jesus models a much richer vision of friendship. Scott Sauls, pastor and teacher, invites you to see the breadth of Christ's love in this audiobook, Befriend.

Settlers dominated and divided, but Indigenous peoples won't just send them all "home." Weaving her own story with the story of her ancestors and with the broader themes of creation, replacement, and disappearance, Krawec helps listeners see settler colonialism through the eyes of an Indigenous writer.

Most of us don't need to make speeches. We need to make friends. This is the core message of Black and White: racism can be disrupted by relationships. If you will risk forging friendships with those who do not look like you, it will change the way you see the world, and that could change the world. The coauthors, Teesha Hadra, a young African American woman, and John Hambrick, a sixty-year-old white man, bring a confident and redemptive tone to this hope because that is exactly what they've experienced.

Colorblindness ignores the realities of race and the history of injustice. On the other hand, antiracism centers racial concerns and in so doing often alienates people who need to be involved in the process. Sociologist George Yancey offers an alternative approach to racial relations where all parties contribute and are mutually accountable to one another for societal well-being. He provides empirical rationale for how collaborative conversations in a mutual accountability model can reduce racial division.
