Holy Rebellion


Book Description

"This scholarship operationalizes Cover's notion of "nomos and narrative" and develops tools to analyze shifting entanglements between religion, gender, and law. The authors propose a "narrative ripeness test" to assess how and when change processes within a minority cultural community may be affected - accelerated or hindered - by state intervention"--




Called to Rebellion


Book Description

Every woman is Called to Rebellion. At stake is control of her heart. Mixing Scripture with humorous and poignant personal anecdotes, Sandy Snavely shows how every aspect of a woman's heart is a battlefield to be won or lost for Christ. By stripping away the superficiality that permeates their lives, readers come to realize their true identity in Christ and rebel against the impostor who robs them of true joy. Women who recognize Satan's influence in their roles as wives, mothers, and friends will find new ways to defeat the evil one and trust the Lord. The journey begins on page 1 by getting face-to-face with God and accepting His call to rebellion.

The Prayer-book of Queen Elizabeth, 1559


Book Description

This book is the 'compromise' text put before Elizabeth's Parliament in 1559. It did not reinstate the Second Edwardian Prayer Book in its entirety, but incorporated elements from the First Edwardian Prayer Book so worship was not as Reformed as many clerics wanted. It was passed in law on April 28th, 1559 to be used from St John the Baptist's Day (June 24th). This current book is the text of that 1559 book, except that the Bible readings are not given in full, only the references. It also has appendices of prayers composed and added during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I for various occasions (e.g. the accession of the Queen, thanksgiving after a rebellion) or for specific groups such as the defence forces.

Love, Sex, and Happily Ever After


Book Description

What do you do if you want a marriage that doesn’t just survive, but thrives? That doesn’t just begin romantically but ends magnificently? Answer: You do something different. You’ve seen marriages fail time and again. Even relationships you thought were bulletproof don’t last–or maybe worse—fade away to a cold, gray lovelessness. It’s no wonder that for today’s generation, “getting what you want” is often a substitute for love, and disillusionment about marriage is the new normal. But you can have a long-term, love-blessed marriage. Whether you’re still considering it, are about to be wed, or have been married for a while and want to make changes, Love, Sex & Happily Ever After delivers an infusion of hope. Author Craig Groeschel clearly and honestly lays out the choices and commitments you can make now to change the way you think and act—to build the relationship you want for the rest of your life. With an invigorating mix of personal story, practical guidance and biblical truth, Craig invites you into a candid conversation about first dates, sex, communication, integrity, forgiveness, and commitment. Along the way, he shows how you can build a soul-enriching, God-honoring relationship with the one you love…and believe together again in your very own “happily ever after.” Previously released as Going All the Way
