The Holy Piby
The Holy Piby by Robert Athlyi Rogers, first published in the 1920s, is a foundational text of Afrocentric spirituality and one of the earliest works to shape the Rastafarian movement. Written as a "Black Man's Bible," the book presents a radical theological vision that centers the divinity, dignity, and destiny of people of African descent.Rogers crafted The Holy Piby as a sacred text of liberation-calling on Africans and the African diaspora to reclaim their spiritual and cultural identity apart from colonial and Eurocentric religious structures. Through allegory, prophecy, and exhortation, the work celebrates Ethiopia as a symbol of African pride and divine origin, proclaiming the unity of Black people under God's purpose.Long suppressed by colonial authorities for its revolutionary message, The Holy Piby remains a cornerstone of Pan-African and Rastafarian thought. It continues to inspire readers as a declaration of faith, empowerment, and resistance against oppression.

Three Dialogues Between Hylas And Philonous In Opposition To Sceptics And Atheists
Three dialogues between Hylas and Philonous in opposition to sceptics and atheists presents a conversational exploration of how reality is understood and what can truly be known. Through a sequence of intellectual debates, the work challenges the assumption that the physical world exists independently of perception. Instead of accepting that objects have an existence outside the mind, the discussion argues that everything known is shaped through ideas formed by sensory experience. The work also examines how doubt can influence thought, urging readers to reconsider their certainty about the external world. By contrasting intuitive belief with philosophical reasoning, the book encourages deeper reflection on what people assume to be true simply because it feels familiar. The unfolding arguments guide the reader toward the realization that perception and reality are inseparable, proposing that the world is not independent of the mind but sustained through the act of perceiving. The dialogue invites readers to examine how assumptions shape understanding and how reality may be far less material than it appears.

Draper highlights the shift among educated classes in Europe and America away from traditional religious authority, noting how the expansion of scientific understanding challenges established doctrines. The narrative focuses on the historical and contemporary implications of this antagonism, particularly examining the role of religious institutions in resisting or accommodating scientific progress. Through detailed analysis of key events and intellectual debates, the book illustrates how the conflict has shaped cultural, philosophical, and social development. Draper presents the struggle not merely as historical but as an ongoing dialogue, prompting reflection on the balance between faith, reason, and humanity's quest for truth.

Hidden within the household of her father, Joseph of Arimathea, a wealthy councilman of the Sanhedrin, her days are measured in herb gardens and healing tinctures, in the steady work of hands trained to help others, and in the quiet safety of a world made small.Then Andrew of Bethsaida arrives at her father's gate with urgent business for Joseph and talk of a teacher who calls ordinary people to extraordinary purpose.

Time of Textiles in Ancient Greece
Textiles accompany us throughout our lives, au fil du temps, from the cradle to the grave. Aspects of time, seasons and chronology play an important role when exploring textiles and clothes in antiquity. The time of textiles appears highly gendered, embodied, tangible, and concrete. Textiles follow their own timeframes and paces, and they connect us to the past in an intimate and diachronic way because we still wear woven fabrics, as people did in antiquity. Textiles themselves are ephemeral and rarely survive in archaeological contexts. But when they do, they can show evidence of a long life. This book is about the time of textiles in ancient Greece: how time was articulated and conceived via clothing and textile production and how clothes conveyed time, seasons, ages, lifetimes and chronological periods. Textiles moreover symbolized eternity and destiny, as the spinning goddesses of fate called Moirai by the ancient Greeks. These goddesses spin, measure and cut the thread of a person's life. The book invites university students in history, archaeology and classics, as well as interested readers, craft communities and Humanities scholars to reflect on diverse dimensions of time in ancient Greece through the study of textiles and clothes.
From Eternal to Everlasting
The Middle Ages witnessed a shift in thinking about the way God is related to time. For most of the earlier Middle Ages, scholars had followed an earlier patristic tradition of describing God as eternal and thus as timeless or outside of time. In the early thirteenth century, however, members of the Franciscan order, who played a significant role in the development of the recently-founded universities, re-defined God's relationship to time in terms of his everlastingness. On their account, God is infinite in temporal duration, rather than simply 'timeless', since he has no beginning and no end. So construed, God encompasses and is able to relate to every moment in time in a way that the Franciscans believed was not possible on the eternalist account. This book will discuss some of the factors that contributed to their shift in thinking about God as everlasting instead of eternal. Among these, the book will identity a transition in defining the basic nature of God as either simple (for proponents of eternity) or infinite (for proponents of everlastingness) as well as the Franciscan adoption of the metaphysics of the eleventh-century Islamic philosopher, Avicenna.
Does God Approve of AI? AI and the Mind of God
Does God Approve of AI? AI and the Mind of God explores one of the most important questions of our time: How does faith fit into a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence? As technology transforms how we live, work, and understand the world, many believers are uncertain about where God stands in this rapidly evolving landscape.In this insightful and spiritually grounded book, Robert Armstrong examines AI not as a threat to faith, but as a powerful extension of the creativity God placed within humanity. Through accessible explanations, rich biblical reflection, and thought-provoking commentary, Armstrong invites readers to see technology through a divine lens. Each chapter explores a new dimension of AI's role in God's design-from the divine blueprint written into human creativity, to the moral responsibility behind innovation, to the spiritual implications of intelligent machines.Instead of fear, this book offers clarity. Instead of confusion, it offers direction. And instead of viewing AI as a rival to God, it reveals how technology can become a tool for healing, teaching, justice, and global connection-when guided by values rooted in Scripture.Perfect for Christians, leaders, educators, and anyone seeking a faithful perspective on the future, this book provides hope, understanding, and a deeper vision of God's purpose in the digital age.

Martyrs to the Unspeakable: The Assassinations of Jfk, Malcolm, Martin, and Rfk
"A staggering achievement. In this incredible saga of mid-twentieth-century America, Jim Douglass links the deaths of four of our greatest disrupters to a government mindset that set out to destroy them before they could change the world we knew. Douglass makes history truly alive in a way that helps us really remember what these stories mean for our country."--Oliver Stone Here at last is the long-awaited sequel to James Douglass's bestselling work, JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters. That book, unlike most books that posit a conspiracy in JFK's assassination, focuses less on "who dunnit" as on "why they dunnit." Douglas's answer was to trace the steps by which JFK moved from being a traditional Cold Warrior to a prophetic commitment to peace, willing to risk his own life in order to avoid nuclear war. In particular JFK's partnership in pursuit of peace with ostensible adversary, Nikita Khrushchev, caused him to be regarded as a traitor by elements of the military-industrial-intelligence complex who deployed the mechanisms of the National Security State--which had previously targeted foreign "threats"--to neutralize the President of the United States. This new volume necessarily returns to the story of JFK, and demonstrates how the same story was enacted again and again in the deaths of his brother, Bobby Kennedy, as well as the killings of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. In each case, American figures who made a prophetic commitment to peace and social transformation were regarded as enemies of the state who had to be eliminated. Douglass believes that this hidden history holds a key to recovering and advancing their mission, and setting our country and the world on a path to peace.

After the White Smoke Cleared
A person cannot see inside another person's heart or mind when they first meet that person. All they see is a pretty painted picture of that person on the outside like the icing on a cake, very sweet, but what they cannot see is that the sweet cake is decayed on the inside. When you first meet someone, you only see the outside appearance; you do not see the flaws and baggage that come along with that person because you are distracted by their attraction. You strike up a conversation only to find out that you have something in common, and you say to yourself, This is my soulmate. Little do you know that the person who you think is your soulmate has ulterior motives because you think now you know them better. After you fall in love with them, you still don't know them. It is only after you got married and lived together that you began to get to know them, and all their flaws and baggage began to show. Then the white smoke begins to clear, and by then, it is too late now because your heart has got involved. You are hooked, and it is hard to break away from them. And the only one who could get you out of that white smoke is God.

Art and Faith
From a world-renowned painter, an exploration of creativity's quintessential--and often overlooked--role in the spiritual life "Makoto Fujimura's art and writings have been a true inspiration to me. In this luminous book, he addresses the question of art and faith and their reconciliation with a quiet and moving eloquence."--Martin Scorsese "[An] elegant treatise. . . . Fujimura's sensitive, evocative theology will appeal to believers interested in the role religion can play in the creation of art."--Publishers Weekly Conceived over thirty years of painting and creating in his studio, this book is Makoto Fujimura's broad and deep exploration of creativity and the spiritual aspects of "making." What he does in the studio is theological work as much as it is aesthetic work. In between pouring precious, pulverized minerals onto handmade paper to create the prismatic, refractive surfaces of his art, he comes into the quiet space in the studio in a discipline of awareness, waiting, prayer, and praise. Ranging from the Bible to T. S. Eliot, Mark Rothko, and Japanese Kintsugi technique, he shows how, unless we are making something, we cannot know the depth of God's being and God's grace permeating our lives. This poignant and beautiful book offers the perspective of, in Christian Wiman's words, an "accidental theologian," one who comes to spiritual questions always through the prism of art.

Encountering the Supernatural
Encountering the supernatural is powerful and exciting. It is also very real. Yet in western society this is looked on skeptically. Everything is viewed through the filter of logic. To an unspiritual mind the supernatural is illogical and therefore rejected.Sociologists studying western culture call it the "excluded middle". We exclude the supernatural out of our western mindsets. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist! On the other hand the youth culture of today has no problem with the supernatural. This is evidenced by their embrace of the Harry Potter and the Twilight series of books and movies that dominate their focus and the media. Some of the most popular computer games have the supernatural as its base! The rise in the popularity of the New Age with people of all ages in our culture tells us that there is a genuine hunger for the supernatural.Inherent in western culture is the desire to control and explain everything. This is the complete opposite mindset needed to encounter the supernatural. The supernatural is very important for you and me. It is the only way that you will discover your true meaning and purpose in life. It will cause your spiritual intuition, your creativity and the power of your conscience to be awakened! Most importantly it will introduce you to the son of God who is the true source of spiritual power! So within this context the supernatural is very logical and does make sense. We just need to open ourselves up to it's amazing possibilities.'Encountering the Supernatural' will take you on a journey. From the beginning you will learn how to be naturally supernatural. You will be shown how to step into the supernatural on a daily basis! And you will learn how to build an overt atmosphere of the supernatural around your life that you take with you every day.
