2020 Publishers Weekly Book of the Year - Religion ★ Publishers Weekly starred review. The #MeToo movement has revealed sexual abuse and assault in every sphere of society, including the church. But victims are routinely ignored by fellow Christians who deny their accounts and fail to bring accountability to the perpetrators. All too often, churches have been complicit in protecting abusers, reinforcing patriarchal power dynamics, and creating cultures of secrecy, shame, and silence. Pastor and survivor Ruth Everhart shines a light on the prevalence of sexual abuse and misconduct within faith communities. She candidly discloses stories of how she and others have experienced assault in church settings, highlighting the damage done to individuals, families, and communities. Everhart offers hope to survivors as she declares that God is present with the violated and stands in solidarity with victims. Scriptural narratives like those of Tamar and Bathsheba carry powerful resonance in today's context, as do the accounts of Jesus' interactions with women. God is at work in the midst of this #MeToo moment to call the church to repentance and deliver us from violence against the vulnerable.
There's a Woman in the Pulpit by Rev. Martha Spong Pdf
Be informed and inspired, delighted and supported, encouraged and entertained by stories and prayers from the unique perspectives of clergywomen. "In ministry, we constantly balance the sacred and the ordinary, juggling the two as expertly as we manage a chalice and a [baby] bottle. Even as we do things as simple as light the candles, set the table, break the bread and pour the wine, we invite people into a holy moment.... The women [in this book] not only have a wellspring of deep wisdom, but they also have the ability to dish out their knowledge with side-aching humor.... I am thrilled that their great wisdom and intelligence will be bound into the pages that I can turn to, lend and appreciate for years to come." ―from the Foreword by Rev. Carol Howard Merritt Learn―and laugh―with these women of the church, bound together by a deep commitment to ministry, as they reveal what it really means to be a woman in the pulpit. Over fifty clergywomen representing fourteen denominations share the details of their intimidating balancing act―juggling the isolating expectations of perfection from their congregations and the shared human realities of everyday life. Intended for laypeople, women hearing a call to ministry and clergy of all denominations, these stories and prayers will resonate with, challenge, encourage and amuse anyone who has a passion for their work and faith.

Chasing Mystery is an exploration into how the Bible negotiates the presence and absence of God in the hopes of forging a path in the modern situation where absences often seem more pressing than presences. Amid the prevailing skepticism and restlessness, says Walsh, we must relearn the skill of trust in reading Scripture. The aim is to experience God through holy writing.
The three great immortal realms, the seven divine realms, and the countless planets orbiting around the Celestial Realm gave birth to powerful ancient gods that guarded the Heavenly God Realm to maintain the balance of the universe. However, 100,000 years ago, during the battle at dusk, there were no gods left in the universe, and a hundred thousand years later, on an inconspicuous planet, a youth unfortunately fell and resurrected from the Heavenly God Realm, becoming the peerless Divine Master who ruled the world from the ancient times.

Divine Love / Divine Intolerance by Darrell J. Ahrens Pdf
"What to tolerate; what not to tolerate?" This is perhaps the most important question our nation, as well as other Western nations, must consider today. What gives this question its crucial importance is the fact that how it is answered will determine the moral and ethical character of a nation and its people. It will determine the integrity and virtue, or lack thereof, of a nation's religious, political, educational, and sociological institutions and their policies, laws, beliefs, and practices. Concerning Western nations and societies, it will determine either faithfulness or unfaithfulness to their underlying religious, political, and historical foundations and heritage. In short, it will determine the very identity of a nation and people.
