This volume is a compilation of the lectures at TASI 2012, held in Boulder, Colorado, June 2012. The program comprises two parallel lecture series on particle physics and on cosmology. The particle physics lectures covers LHC related experimental techniques, phenomenology, as well as basics in physics beyond the standard model. The cosmology series give a general introduction to modern cosmology with special attention to the topics of dark matter, the microwave background and alternatives to the standard model of cosmology. The lectures are accessible to graduate students at the initial stages of their research careers.

Living In Kingdom Authority is a word of inspiration, empowering the believer to demonstrate the miraculous power of Jesus as his sent representatives. Beginning with Adam as God's glory bearer to creation, we show that by Jesus' restoration, this same purpose has been given back to the believers. With a solid biblical basis, we present practically what it means: to be in His image, to be apostolic and how to effectively demonstrate the power of His kingdom. Living In Kingdom Authority challenges some of the limiting religious traditions of modern Christianity, beginning by revealing what the bible says about tradition and its effects. Further, we counter the idea of the modern self-centered, consumerist, bless me, escapist gospel with the Gospels true purpose of Kingdom restoration. Living In Kingdom Authority will inspire, shock and challenge the believer to rise above their nominal christianity and step into the role they have been given by Jesus as his sent representative
