Seeking a Sanctuary
The story of a large yet little-known Protestant denomination
Peaceful at Heart
While there are plenty of books by men, for men, on the topic of “Christian masculinity,” these books generally fail to address men’s propensities for violence and the traditional inequity between men and women, often endorsing inequity and sanctioning aggressive behavior as an appropriate “manly” response to conflict. Peaceful at Heart cuts through this conversation by offering a uniquely Anabaptist Christian perspective on masculinity. The vision of masculinity presented in this book is more peaceful, just, caring, life-giving for men, and more sensitive to women and children than both traditional images of masculinity and the hypermasculine images promoted by contemporary popular culture and wider evangelical Christianity. Peaceful at Heart addresses men and masculinity using Anabaptist theological themes of discipleship, community, and peace. As a collaborative project by men, for men, this book demonstrates through personal narratives, theological reflection, and practical guidance the importance of collective discernment, accountability, and mutual encouragement regarding how to live as a peaceful man in a violent world.
Embrace the Impossible
He was there. Immersed in the events and crises that shaped the Seventh-day Adventist Church over the past quarter century, he was no spectator, but an active participant. Speaking, writing, debating, defending-his voice was heard loud and clear.
The Bamboo House
A Bamboo House is flexible, even transitory. For Dorothy it involved twenty- two house moves across six countries. All in just thirty-three years. People who live in these houses may be either in or out of the Ivory Tower. On or off the payroll. Careers begin, grow, and sometimes change shape. Residents move from naivete to wisdom, while patience curbs selfishness. A Bamboo House is where youth becomes maturity, and love and marriage can happen. Children are born and become teenagers. Meanwhile, dear friends enrich the days and enlarge our horizons.

Anyone You Want Me to Be
JOHN DOUGLAS -- THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MINDHUNTER AND THE UNDISPUTED MASTER PROFILER OF SERIAL CRIMINALS -- TELLS THE CHILLING TRUE STORY OF JOHN ROBINSON, THE INTERNET'S FIRST SERIAL MURDERER. In Olathe, Kansas, a balding, pudgy father of four sits in prison convicted on three counts of homicide -- two of capital murder -- and suspected in at least five other disappearances. During the last half of the 1990s, John Robinson exploited the Internet's active world of sadomasochism with horrific results. By haunting chat rooms, he pinpointed vulnerable women who were looking for romance and stalked them on-line, nefariously convincing them of his maturity, sensitivity, and financial stability...
