In Rhetoric of the Protestant Sermon in America: The Pulpit at the
Turn of the Millennium, ten scholars analyze notable sermons from
the fifty-year span between 1965 and 2015, during which the
Protestant sermon has undergone significant change in the United
States. Contributors examine how this turbulent time period
witnessed a variety of important shifts in the arguments,
evidences, and rhetorical strategies employed by contemporary
preachers. Because religious practice is inextricably tangled in
the culture, politics, and economy of its historical situation, the
public expression of a faith is certain to move with the times. In
their treatment of race, sex, gender, class, and citizenship,
sermons apply ancient texts to current events and controversies,
often to revealing effect. This collection, thoughtfully edited by
Eric C. Miller and Jonathan J. Edwards, demonstrates how the genre
of the Protestant sermon has evolved-or resisted evolution-across
the years. Scholars of religion, rhetoric, communication,
sociology, and cultural studies will find this book particularly
useful.

Rising Phoenix is the third book in the Visions of David Palmer
series. After neutralizing David Palmer, Falin and the Brotherhood
are preparing for the most destructive phase in their pursuit for
ultimate power and world dominance. Destroying the world's
economies and starting a world war that will leave freedom in
shambles will also propel Falin to the position of global dictator.
The only thing standing in Falin's way is the Alliance, and Falin
has concocted a plan to remove that final obstacle. The hope of the
world now hangs on whether David Palmer and Madlyn Walker can rise
like a phoenix from the ashes.
When David Palmer graduated from high school, married his high
school sweetheart, and enrolled in the University of Chicago with
enough college credit to be a junior, he was well on his way to
live the rest of his life in normalcy. Settling down, having three
children, and earning a middle-class household income were all the
adventure David wanted. In the wrong place at the wrong time, David
becomes captive to a tragedy that steals any hope that he will lead
a normal or quiet life. A victim of the latest public massacre,
David is left in a coma for ten months, only to wake and find that
the shooting has taken more from him than he imagined possible
while leaving him with an epileptic disability. With everything
taken from him, David resigns himself to a life with no purpose. At
least, that is how he planned to live until he finds that, in place
of what he has lost, he has been given a new gift - an
extraordinary gift that provides him with visions of the future and
compels him to pursue justice against those who altered his life.
The Triangle is the first book in The Visions of David Palmer
series.

Recoil is the second book in The Visions of David Palmer series, a
multi-book series from Stephen Reid Andrews Six months have passed
since David, Maddy, and Ridley defeated and exposed the domestic
terrorist organization known as the Triangle. With the occasional
help of David's brother, the league of friends have spent their
time using the foreknowledge of David's visions to anonymously go
about serving the desperate and destitute. Whether helping victim
or potential perpetrator, their objective and ultimate satisfaction
comes from using their limited resources and abilities to make the
world around them a better place. Unknown to the trio, David's
visions have routinely put the group at odds with some of the most
powerful people in the world. Because they have disrupted evil too
many times to be ignored, an organization much more dangerous and
menacing than the Triangle is about to go hunting, and David Palmer
is their target. Unfortunately, in the midst of the group's
struggles, when David's visionary powers are needed most, David
discovers that any help from his visions could also mean his death.
