Women and C.S. Lewis is a collection of interviews and essays, from a group of distinguished scholars commissioned by the C.S. Lewis Foundation. Critics say Lewis was sexist in his views on women. Opinion pieces by both eminent Lewis scholars and newer thinkers review Lewis's personal relationships with women and treatment of women in his writings. The book is drawn together in a final section which examines whether Lewis's views are relevant or out of touch for the twenty-first century. Invited contributors range from scholars to bloggers and include Alister McGrath, Randy Alcorn, Monika Hilder, Colin Duriez, Crystal Hurd, Jeanette Sears, David C. Downing, Malcolm Guite, and others. Edited by Carolyn Curtis, veteran journalist and book author, and Mary Pomroy Key, Director, Special Programs, C.S. Lewis Foundation.

Dave Knight is a wayward child growing up in a military family during the 1950s. His older sister wants to kill him but settles for regularly beating him up. Other siblings join in the mayhem while their alcoholic father contributes to the chaos with his unique approach to parenting. As the Knight family moves from one army base to the next, Dave develops a give-a-damn attitude, which often leads to trouble. In high school, he joins other delinquents in a series of escapades, some dangerous, others funny, and a few that would be worthy of jail time should they ever be caught. After barely graduating, Dave is drafted into the army and sent to guard a nuclear weapons depot in Korea. There, he gets into trouble with his sergeant and tries to avoid dishonorable discharge.

What is hope? Where does it come from? How can believers face the future with confidence—not with blind optimism, but deep trust in God’s plans? In Hope 4 You, First Place 4 Health National Director Carole Lewis examines the theme of hope as presented in God’s Word, and illustrates what hope is and is not through the real-life experiences of Carole and a number of her friends in the faith. Carole leads readers on an exploration of Scripture, which identifies the Holy Spirit as the Source of all hope. With this understanding, believers can walk with God (which restores hope), work with God (which renews hope) and wait on God (which revives hope). Carole underscores that hoping is never passive or inactive; it is productive, meaningful and full of purpose. Hope motivates us to take practical steps toward our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual goals.
