A masterclass in atmospheric suspense and domestic uneaseIt begins as an ordinary day of frayed nerves and suburban fractiousness. Following a sharp argument with his wife, Graham sets out across London with his young daughter, Jasmine. It is a journey born of a need for space on the surface, a simple drive to clear the air.But as they move through the city, the familiar begins to feel inexplicably foreign.The motorways are tightening. The air is changing. On every screen, in every shop window, a recurring image of a remote island haunts the broadcast an image that pulls Graham back toward a childhood he has tried to outrun.As the horizon darkens and the path home becomes increasingly uncertain, Graham is forced to navigate the shifting boundary between a fathers protective instinct and a world that is rapidly losing its grip on the known.The Island is a devastatingly controlled novella from one of the UKs finest poets. It is a story of what remains when the structures of the everyday fall away: the memories we cannot escape, and the desperate, quiet love between a father and his child.

Including People with Disabilities Is Essential to Your Churchs Witness God wants people of all abilities to be active participants in his kingdom. But churches have not always made it clear that people with disabilities are both part of Gods story and fully welcome in their communities. If the church is to be a credible witness, it must reach and include people with disabilities within its evangelism, mission, and everyday life. In Disability and Evangelism, Rochelle Scheuermann casts a vision for including people with disabilities in all aspects of evangelism, from how we understand and tell the gospel story, to how we evangelize to and with people with disabilities. This groundbreaking book invites us to reshape our evangelism theology and practice so that people with disabilities are central in all we think, say, and do. Scheuermann uncovers how Gods story in Scripture responds to the complexities of disability and provides both the means and message to share good news among people of all abilities. She then explores issues of evangelism practice, including how we understand conversion, an expanded understanding of accommodation, and pursuing interdependence in ministry. In Disability and Evangelism, you will gain a biblical understanding of both disability and evangelism; hear stories from people with a range of disabilities; study evangelism practices that go beyond traditional approaches that are key for doing evangelism with and among people with disabilities; understand why many people with disabilities feel excluded from and do not attend church; and engage with discussion questions ineach chapter. This book shows how the gospel really is good news for people of all abilities. Understanding and embracing disability is not only a matter of compassion and justice. People with disabilities will help the church to counteract faulty visions of power, autonomy, and self-promotion and to encounter the good news of Jesus more deeply. If youre looking for a resource that invites people with disabilities to be both recipients and active participants in Gods mission, Disability and Evangelism is for you. About the Series Center for Disability and Ministry books explore the intersection of disability and practical theology in partnership with the Center for Disability and Ministry at Western Theological Seminary. Co-edited by Benjamin T. Conner and John Swinton, this series explores key issues in disability theology through the framework of practical theology, aiming to increase knowledge as well as faithfully impact Christian practice.

Olá! Que bom te encontrar por aqui... de verdade. Abrir este livro é como aceitar um convite para sentar comigo, tomar um café quentinho... sabe aquele cheirinho reconfortante que preenche o ambiente? E um pouco disso que sinto ao te receber nestas paginas. A gente vai conversar sobre algo que, para muita gente, soa como um misterio intrigante, ou ate mesmo um peso no coraço: o Apocalipse. Por tanto tempo, essa palavra sozinha gerou medo, vises de caos... confesso que, la atras, eu sentia um arrepiozinho so de pensar nisso. Era um livro selado, profundo demais, complexo, cheio de simbolos que pareciam impossiveis de decifrar. Tipo aquelas caixas antigas, cheias de segredos que a gente no sabe por onde começar. Mas, veja bem... o convite deste livro e outro. No e sobre o fim pelo fim. E a Revelaço de Jesus Cristo. E sobre o desdobrar definitivo do plano de Deus, o ultimo capitulo da criaço. E e com essa lente que vamos olhar, com um cuidado meticuloso, buscando cada peça desse mosaico impressionante. Nossa jornada no vai ser uma linha reta e entediante, pode ter certeza. Vamos parar, refletir, talvez dar um passo para tras para entender algo melhor... como numa conversa boa, que flui, que tem suas pausas e seus momentos mais intensos. A gente vai passear pela sala do trono celestial, que e de uma gloria massiva, quase luxuosa no sentido mais puro e santo da palavra (longe de qualquer coisa decadente, claro!).

Todays computer scientists play the same role as the oracles of the ancient world and the astrologers of the Middle Ages. Modern predictions not only advise on war, crop output, and marriages, but algorithms and statisticians also now determine whether we can get a loan, a job, an apartment, or an organ transplant. And when we cede ground to these predictions, we lose control of our own lives.In this powerful, refreshing new look at the many ways prediction shapes our everyday lives, University of Oxford professor Carissa Veliz explains how putting too much stock in others predictions makes us vulnerable to charlatans, con artists, dubious technology, and self-deception. Examining a wide range of subjects both personal and societal, including medicine, climate, technology, society, and others, Veliz uncovers a number of insights: predictions about humans tend to be self-fulfilling; more data doesnt guarantee better outcomes; AI is more likely to increase risk than decrease it; and a free and robust society requires not more prediction, but better preparation.Veliz argues in this incisive and bracingly original book that the main promise of prediction is not knowledge of the future, but rather power over others. Prophecy is an invitation to defy those orders and live life on our own terms.

Told in her own words, this is the incredible true story of one young womans survival of Auschwitz and Belsen because she happened to play the cello.With a new foreword by Philippe Sands. Although my head was shaved and I had a number on my arm, I had not lost my identity totally. I may no longer have had a name, but I was identifiable .

A powerful debut compelled by questions of borders and displacement. In one story I stay in that city forever, in one I board, and in another I am still waiting.I am daybreak; I am everywhere.In The Tree Is Missing, Shannon Kuta Kelly explores the poetics of the border. The collection crosses through non-places, moving between the unnamed and unmapped spaces on the edges of the European city. With remarkable poise and restraint, these itinerant poems experiment with oral history and translation, traversing the borderlines of nation, language and time. They draw on folklore to evoke a world that feels current and present, but which can only be reached through storytelling. In doing so, Kuta Kelly explores the loss and displacement - the fracture of identity - necessitated by personal and political turmoil. She writes with a restless immediacy from within the histories that continue to shape us.
