Sitting in and Speaking Out
In Sitting In and Speaking Out, Jeffrey A. Turner examines student movements in the South to grasp the nature of activism in the region during the turbulent 1960s. Turner argues that the story of student activism is too often focused on national groups like Students for a Democratic Society and events at schools like Columbia University and the University of California at Berkeley. Examining the activism of black and white students, he shows that the South responded to national developments but that the response had its own trajectory--one that was rooted in race. Turner looks at such events as the initial desegregation of campuses; integration's long aftermath, as students learned to share ...

The Atheistic Theist
What if the Gospel is not about making the Godless Godly, but making the godly godless? What if Jesus isn't interested in calling us to add one more deity to our list of priorities, but to abandon the notion of the divine as we've imagined it altogether, and to follow him down a path so contradictory to our concepts of God, that it looks more like forsaking him than following him? In The Atheistic Theist, Jeff Turner argues that the only way to find God is to lose God, and that many of us who think we've found God, have lost God. This book is a radical call to recapture the Church's ancient, atheistic legacy, and to purify our understanding of God by purging it of the notion of "god." It is a call to lose "god," and to find "God;" to follow Jesus, and to forsake our idols; to becomes atheists that we might become theists.
