Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When we talk about social justice, some people squirm. Others get excited. Still others aren't quite sure what it means-but they know Jesus probably had something to say about it, right? Jesus and Social Justice is a Bible study for people who are curious, committed, cautious, or confused - and hopefully a little of each. This study is rooted in a simple premise: Jesus wasn't just concerned with personal salvation - he was passionate about systemic transformation. He healed individuals and confronted empires. He forgave sinners and flipped tables. He spoke tenderly to the poor and challenged the powerful. In short, Jesus was deeply involved in the work of justice. But let's be clear: social justice isn't a modern political invention that we're reading back into the Gospels. It's baked into the Hebrew Scriptures - think of the prophets crying out for widows, orphans, and the poor - and Jesus picks up that same megaphone. His teachings, healings, parables, and even his table manners all point toward a new kind of world: one where the last are first, the humble are lifted, and the captives are freed. This Bible study explores ten key moments in the Gospels where Jesus acts as a model of justice in action. Each session will focus on one scripture passage, asking questions like: - What was Jesus trying to accomplish here?- How did this challenge the social systems of his time?- What does this say to us about how we live today?And because this is a Bible study and not a book club - we don't stop at discussion. Each session includes practical application, spiritual reflection, and a little homework (don't worry, there's no grading curve). We're not studying Jesus like a historical figure in a museum - we're following him into the streets, into the systems, into the hard places where faith meets action.For many readers, you will be familiar with the concept of faith active in love. Some of you, not so much. But that's what this study is all about. Not just "thoughts and prayers," but hearts and hands. It's not about arriving at perfect conclusions or checking off moral boxes. It's about wrestling with the real Jesus, whose compassion was as disruptive as it was healing.Throughout this study, you'll see how Jesus: - Prioritized the poor and marginalized- Spoke truth to power, especially religious power- Defied unjust social norms- Modeled nonviolence, forgiveness, and radical love- Invited unlikely people into the Kingdom of God- Challenged followers to count the cost of justice You'll also have a chance to explore how these stories speak to your community - your church, your city, your calling.No one is expected to come into this study already knowing all the answers - just come willing to ask the questions. Bring your curiosity. Bring your faith. Bring your coffee. Let's study Jesus not just to admire him, but to follow him more faithfully, and to learn how the Gospel really is good news for the poor.

Urban Myths of Los AlamosStories the Atomic City Told ItselfLos Alamos is where the twentieth century learned how to end the world.It is also where people learned how to live with that knowledge.Urban Myths of Los Alamos is a haunting, darkly funny, and deeply human collection of folklore born in one of the most secretive places in American history. From the earliest days of the Manhattan Project through the Cold War and beyond, residents of the Atomic City filled the silence with stories-some whispered, some joked about, some half-believed, and some that refuse to disappear.Inside these pages you'll encounter: - Ghosts in laboratory tunnels and monsters at cemetery gates - The Demon Core and the deadly blue flash - A manhole cover that may have beaten Sputnik into space - Scientists who cracked safes for sport and hid files beneath floors - Evacuation drills that rewired instinct-and once left a family behind - Ducks that vanished, sirens that felt different, and tunnels that may go everywhere - Babies born with a post office box instead of a birthplace - Bats, Martians, flying propane tanks, and early computers that discovered vodka - The myths children absorbed, the jokes newcomers were told, and the stories no one officially confirmedThese are not official histories. They are not meant to be fact-checked into submission.They are coping mechanisms-the folklore of a town built on secrecy, pressure, brilliance, and unimaginable responsibility. In Los Alamos, where answers were often too classified, too technical, or too terrifying to hold directly, stories did the work answers couldn't.Written with warmth, wit, and reverence for the people who lived these legends, Urban Myths of Los Alamos explores why certain places feel "off," why some stories persist long after their origins fade, and how humor, exaggeration, and imagination helped an extraordinary community survive the weight of what it knew.Whether you're a history enthusiast, a folklore lover, a fan of the uncanny, or someone drawn to the human side of science, this book offers a rare invitation inside the unofficial Los Alamos-the one that exists between reports and recollections, between truth and memory.Welcome to the Atomic City.Relax. Enjoy the view.And remember: if someone tells you something strange with complete confidence. there's probably a reason they're smiling. Urban Myths of Los Alamos is book of myths from one of the most secretive places in American history. From the the Manhattan on, residents of the Atomic City filled the silence with stories that refuse to disappear. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "The Word became flesh and moved into the neighborhood." - John 1:14What does it really mean for God to become human?In Love Made Flesh, Mark David Albertson takes readers beyond the nativity scene to explore the radical reality of divine love-love that risks, waits, weeps, and stays. Blending theology, storytelling, and gentle humor, Albertson reveals a God who trades glory for grit and holiness for humanity.Through deeply relatable stories and biblical reflection, you'll discover: The God who still shows up in barns, hospital rooms, and broken hearts.Why real love always involves risk-and why that's good news.How the Incarnation continues every time we embody compassion.That faith isn't about avoiding pain, but learning to love through it.Perfect for Advent reflection or year-round inspiration, Love Made Flesh reminds us that the miracle of Christmas never ended-it's still happening, every time love takes human form.What if the Christmas story wasn't about magic-but about love so vulnerable it changed everything?In Love Made Flesh, Mark David Albertson invites readers to rediscover the Incarnation as the heart of God's love story. From the manger to the cross, from the laughter of a baby to the tears of a dying Savior, this is the story of a God who doesn't hover above our pain but moves into the neighborhood, sleeves rolled up.Each chapter weaves Scripture, personal reflection, and modern parables that show divine love not as theory, but as something raw, risky, and breathtakingly real. You'll meet the God who gets dirt under His nails, the parent who waits by the window, and the love that keeps showing up long after the miracle glow fades.This isn't just a Christmas book-it's a devotional for every season, reminding us that love still takes on flesh whenever we dare to live with open hearts.For readers of Henri Nouwen, Barbara Brown Taylor, and Philip Yancey.
