This book traces the trajectory of militant jihadism to show how violence is more intentionally embraced as the centre of worship, social order and ideology. Undertaking an in-depth analysis of militant jihadist groups and utilising the work of René Girard, Joel Hodge argues that the extreme violence of militant jihadists is a response to modernity in two ways that have not been sufficiently explored by the existing literature. Firstly, it is a manifestation of the unrestrained and escalating state of desire and rivalry in modernity, which militant jihadists seek to counter with extreme violence. Secondly, it is a response to the unveiling and discrediting of sacred violence, which militant jihadists seek to reverse by more purposefully valorising sacred violence in what they believe to be jihad. Relevant to anyone interested in Islam, philosophy of religion, theology, and terrorism, Violence in the Name of God imagines new ways of thinking about militancy in the name of Islam in the twenty-first century.

The problem of infertility has reached epidemic levels in our society. It is projected that 40 percent of women currently 25 and younger will have difficulty conceiving a child or reaching a live birth. Amanda Hope Haley had married David, the man of her dreams, and earned a master’s degree from Harvard. She and David purchased their first home and settled down to start a family. All her hopes and dreams were coming true according to plan—until the family didn’t happen. After spending seven years begging God for a child, Amanda discovered that God gives only one hope: Jesus. Amanda having a baby wasn’t to be her happy ending. Finding wholeness by hoping only in God was her happy ending! Using Amanda’s personal stories, and the stories of other women who have struggled to have children, Barren Among the Fruitful surrounds those women struggling with infertility or miscarriage with a sense of community while providing honest facts. It leads women from confusion to understanding. Each chapter is titled with a well-meaning, but sometimes thoughtless comment Amanda was offered during her seven-year struggle with infertility. Features include: Personal stories from women who have struggled with infertility or miscarriage An honest look at the problem of infertility Questions for individual thought or group discussion

The fourth set in the wildly popular Courtlight series, continue on with the challenges that have riveted readers of adventure fantasy for the entire series. Sworn To Quell Ciardis Weathervane must forge a new path with a palace in ruins, a rebellion falling apart, and a public wary of committing hearts and minds to Sebastian’s cause. All while the heavens and the earth collide. Sworn To Restoration After seeing the goddess for what she is, a bloodthirsty deity bent on breaking them, Ciardis puts a plan in motion to unleash a wave of magic across the land in quantities unlike anything since the Initiate Wars. If the deity wants a war, the humans are coming to win. Sworn To Justice As Ciardis fights a goddess with motivations purer than most, she learns that the imperial advisors by Sebastian’s side are the very opposite of above reproach. Mid-battlefield Ciardis realizes that the perils of the entrenched court have surrounded her on all sides when she most needs to stay strong. But nothing is permanent and everything is up for grabs as she faces down this new threat.

Atran argues that religion is a by-product of human evolution just as the cognitive intervention, cultural selection, and historical survival of religion is an accommodation of certain existential and moral elements in the human condition.
