Samantha Hannum is the kind of experienced, calm-under-fire paramedic you'd want if you were badly injured, but the crises and threats she faces each day have begun to erode her compassion and will. She's lost all sense of purpose, a dilemma that is affecting the relationships with her family, friends and the people she serves. Samantha and her rookie partner stumble onto a plot to distribute contaminated medicine. Their discovery puts the medics in grave danger and tests the limits of their cunning and loyalty. Set against the backdrop of a gang war and a violent protest against a local abortion clinic, it's difficult at times for the partners to know if there is an actual plot against them or if they're simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Samantha's world is brutal and unpredictable, but it is also a place where strangers care for others in the most extraordinary conditions. To triumph--and survive--Samantha must find a way to rekindle the humanity she believes she has lost.

"There are no words foul and filthy enough to describe war." So declared Geoffrey "Woodbine Willie" Studdert Kennedy (1883-1929), a decorated frontline chaplain whose battlefield experiences in World War I transformed him into his generation's most eloquent defender of Christian pacificism. Studdert Kennedy was also a tireless champion of the social gospel who wrote a dozen books, scores of articles, hundreds of poems, and preached countless sermons in both the UK and the US promoting economic justice. Studdert Kennedy's writing and preaching influenced an entire generation. William Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury, described him as a "true prophet." Even though he's fallen into obscurity with the passage of years, Studdert Kennedy's message still inspires the likes of Desmond Tutu and Jurgen Moltmann. This collection of Studdert Kennedy's work, the first in sixty years, seeks to introduce this most relevant of thinkers to our troubled times. The book pulls together Studdert Kennedy's most important writings on war and peace, poverty, the problem of evil, the church's role in the world, sin and atonement, the suffering God, love versus force as world powers, and the beloved community. Editor Kerry Walters introduces the texts with a biographical and thematic essay.

Jesus has actual real disciples today. They follow Him in their day to day lives. It is not just on twitter, facebook or other social media, but in choices one has to make daily, yes and in the relationships with those around you - ones you agree with and ones you do not agree with. Following Jesus does not entail a list of rules, do's and don'ts, no. It is a life lived in victory over sin, in joy to be on the earth, sharing the love Jesus has showered us with. It is great. I invite you to follow him fully, unhindered by traditions which nullify the word of God as Mark 7:13 says. Should you slip up at some point, do not lose heart, he picks you and turns you around and teaches you to live victoriously. Happy following.

While the Civil Rights Movement is remembered for efforts to end segregation and secure the rights of African Americans, the larger economic vision that animated much of the movement is often overlooked today. That vision sought economic justice for every person in the United States, regardless of race. It favored production for social use instead of profit; social ownership; and democratic control over major economic decisions. The document that best captured this vision was the Freedom Budget for All Americans: Budgeting Our Resources, 1966-1975, To Achieve Freedom from Want published by the A. Philip Randolph Institute and endorsed by a virtual ‘who’s who’ of U.S. left liberalism and radicalism. Now, two of today’s leading socialist thinkers return to the Freedom Budget and its program for economic justice. Paul Le Blanc and Michael D. Yates explain the origins of the Freedom Budget, how it sought to achieve “freedom from want” for all people, and how it might be reimagined for our current moment. Combining historical perspective with clear-sighted economic proposals, the authors make a concrete case for reviving the spirit of the Civil Rights Movement and building the society of economic security and democratic control envisioned by the movement’s leaders—a struggle that continues to this day.
