When organizations are committed to gender equality, what gets in the way of their achieving it? How and why do well-intentioned people end up reinforcing sexism? Katie Lauve-Moon examines these questions by focusing on religious congregations that separated from their mainline denomination in order to support women's equal leadership. In Preacher Woman, Lauve-Moon concentrates on congregations affiliated with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship (CBF). Women are enrolling in Baptist seminaries at almost equal rates as men and CBF identifies the equal leadership of women as a core component of its collective identity, yet only five percent of CBF congregations employ women as solo senior pastors. Preacher Woman explores how congregations can be committed to ideas of gender parity while still falling short in practice. Lauve-Moon investigates how institutional sexism is upheld through both unconscious and conscious biases. In doing so, she demonstrates that addressing issues of sexism and gender inequality within organizations must extend beyond good intentions and inclusive policies.

WARNING: Peter warned that multitudes could be lead to their own destruction by misinterpreting some of Paul's letters. Speaking of Paul... "his letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort (untrained in the knowledge of the Torah) as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction. Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless... those who do not walk in the way of the Torah-Law]" (2 Peter 3:16, 17; commentary added). Why is Peter warning us of Paul's letters? Peter understood Paul's style of teaching, which was from an intellectual and philosophical Greek mindset. Peter knew that unschooled people and those unlearned in the ways of Torah would misunderstand them and would be misled by teachers who manipulate the letters to elevate and profit from them, ultimately leading many to their own destruction. ITZHAK BEN AARON LEVY was born and raised in Israel and comes to us from the priestly tribe of Levy. Rabbi Levy uses history and the Bible in the making of this book; his teachings fall in the middle between Judaism and Christianity, bridging the divide. Levy has chosen Paul's letters since they have been a pivotal point of controversy when compared to the other writers of the New Testament. Knowing that Paul was schooled in the Hebrew language, Levy has used Paul's translated letters from Greek to Hebrew in order to help the reader better understand Paul's Hebrew thinking. By doing this, Levy delivers the true intent of Paul's letters while removing the controversial shadow that was cast on Paul for 2,000 years, allowing the real Paul to come forth. "Thought provoking... enlightening... once I started reading, I couldn't put it down." -MSK "This book sheds much clarity on Paul the person." - B. Jensen "A truly enlightened deliverance of Paul." R. Welsh

The forty-one years between the Society of Jesus's papal suppression in 1773 and its eventual restoration in 1814 remain controversial, with new research and interpretations continually appearing. Shore's narrative approaches these years, and the period preceding the suppression, from a new perspective that covers individuals not usually discussed in works dealing with this topic. As well as examining the contributions of former Jesuits to fields as diverse as ethnology-a term and concept pioneered by an ex-Jesuit-and library science, where Jesuits and ex-Jesuits laid the groundwork for the great advances of the nineteenth century, the essay also explores the period the exiled Society spent in the Russian Empire. It concludes with a discussion of the Society's restoration in the broader context of world history.

Humanity is about to experience its greatest global event ever. This event is called the Rapture. Up to this point in time, we never had any solid analysis revealing when this event would really take place. But that is until now. The most important link to the Rapture is the Perfection of the Saints. There are the ones that will constitute the Bride of Christ. This book contains the necessary elements that would perfect these persons. Mathematical calculations and intricate interpretations of Biblical Scriptures are now presented. This information is tied back to the History of the Church. Everything now points to one year in particular. Would like to know in what year the Lord Jesus Christ will meet us in the Clouds? Then you need to purchase this book.

How can we develop and embody an ecclesiology, in contexts of urban marginality, that is radically receptive to the gifts and challenges of the agency of our non-Christian neighbours? Drawing on resources from political theologies, and in particular conversation with Graham Ward and Romand Coles, this book challenges our lazy understanding of receptivity, digging deep to uncover a rich theological seam which has the potential to radically alter how theologians think about what we draw from urban places. It offers a game changing liberative theology rooted not in the global south but from a position of self-critical privilege.
