Flat Earths and Fake Footnotes
We are all haunted by histories. They shape our presuppositions and ballast our judgments. In terms of science and religion this means most of us walk about haunted by rumors of a long war. However, there is no such thing as the “history of the conflict of science and Christianity,” and this is a book about it. In the last half of the twentieth century a sea change in the history of science and religion occurred, revealing not only that the perception of protracted warfare between religion and science was a curious set of mythologies that had been combined together into a sort of supermyth in need of debunking. It was also seen that this collective mythology arose in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by historians involved in many sides of the debates over Darwin’s discoveries, and from there latched onto the public imagination at large. Flat Earths and Fake Footnotes takes the reader on a journey showing how these myths were constructed, collected together, and eventually debunked. Join us for a story of flat earths and fake footnotes, to uncover the strange tale of how the conflict of science and Christianity was written into history.
Secret Exposed
While driving home one seemingly normal afternoon, friends Derrick and Peterson discover something mysterious. Derrick is a botanist and chemist, while Peterson is a plastic surgeon, so they might be the perfect pair to come upon a tree with a mysterious sap that vibrates and glows. Curious, they fill a pail to test later. Peterson soon notices that he splashed some of the sap on his arm, and his arm has now changed. The affected skin not only looks better but also feels better. Perhaps there is something supernatural about this sap? Before there is time to consider, an earthquake occurs that may or may not be related to the men's breakthrough. Enthusiastic about what they found, Derrick and Peterson agree on a worthwhile goal. It is possible they could create a wonderful, healing destination for mankind, but only following a rollercoaster ride of twists and turns.

When the Manna Ceased is the story of a woman who lost more than material things when her marriage failed. Walk with Rose as she learns to trust God again.
The Practice of Citizenship
In the years between the American Revolution and the U.S. Civil War, as legal and cultural understandings of citizenship became more racially restrictive, black writers articulated an expansive, practice-based theory of citizenship. Grounded in political participation, mutual aid, critique and revolution, and the myriad daily interactions between people living in the same spaces, citizenship, they argued, is not defined by who one is but, rather, by what one does. In The Practice of Citizenship, Derrick R. Spires examines the parallel development of early black print culture and legal and cultural understandings of U.S. citizenship, beginning in 1787, with the framing of the federal Constitu...
