Christmas Is Not Your Birthday
Every year, we say we’re going to cut back, simplify, and have a family Christmas that focuses on the real reason for the season—Jesus. But every year, advertisements beckon, the children plead, and it seems easier just to indulge our wants and whims. Overspending, overeating, materialism, and busyness rob us of our peace and joy and rob Jesus of his rightful role as the center of our celebration. This Christmas, cut through the hype that leaves you exhausted and broke at the end of the year. Instead, experience the peace of knowing that God is truly with us, the joy of giving sacrificially, and the love of a Savior who gave everything he had for us. In five short, engaging chapters, Pastor Mike Slaughter inspires readers to approach Christmas differently, and be transformed in the process.
Joy Comes in the Morning
Author and minister Kimley Dunlap-Slaughter takes readers on a journey through the Scriptures to find joy that lasts through trials and offers peace, faith, hope, and perseverance. They will discover how rooting yourself in God's Word, obedience to God, and trusting Him with your emotions will open them up to the joy God intended. Tools are given for learning how to rid one’s life of joy-robbers such as misery, greed, bitterness, depression, and lying.
Princess Diana the Lamb to the Slaughter
Born to privilege, living on the edge of the royal circle, Lady Diana Spencer assumed-like everyone else-that little adjustment would be needed to adapt to her new role, the Princess of Wales and future Queen of England. What everyone, including Diana, failed to factor in was that Charles, at age thirty-three, was not only a confirmed bachelor, surrounded from infancy with people to anticipate and provide his every need, he was also in a long-term, committed relationship. However, it was his duty to marry and provide an heir to the throne of England. Meanwhile, Diana, almost a generation younger, envisioned (as Edward VIII had) what a modern monarchy could be; how it could be relevant in today's complex society-a monarchy she was determined to have for her son. That these two forces-the status quo and the Modern England-should clash was inevitable, but no one was prepared for the cataclysmic climax in the story of the Queen England never had-Diana, Princess of Wales, the Lamb to the Slaughter.
A Passenger to Bali
This play was given by Orson Welles on the air, a dramatic, virile variation of the Flying Dutchman theme. It reads so much better than the average play that it should get a good general market, especially away from New York and vicinity. And this interest should be stimulated by the fact that it is to be played on Broadway by Walter Hueston. Another man without a country, this time an anarchist who is refused port the world over, is thereby made a permanent Jonah on a small freighter in the China Seas. It takes an act of God in the form of a hurricane to release the ship and its crew from the unease that the undesirable passenger creates. Well done.
Reading Slaughter
Reading Slaughter: Abattoir Fictions, Space, and Empathy in Late Modernity examines literary depictions of slaughterhouses from the development of the industrial abattoir in the late nineteenth century to today. The book focuses on how increasing and ongoing isolation and concealment of slaughter from the surrounding society affects readings and depictions of slaughter and abattoirs in literature, and on the degree to which depictions of animals being slaughtered creates an avenue for empathic reactions in the reader or the opportunity for reflections on human-animal relations. Through chapters on abattoir fictions in relation to narrative empathy, anthropomorphism, urban spaces, rural spaces, human identities and horror fiction, Sune Borkfelt contributes to debates in literary animal studies, human-animal studies and beyond.
