Long ago in a faraway land, two little girls are born to different families in the town of Nazareth. As Mary and Mary Elizabeth grow up, they become best friends who both hope to be the virgin mother of the long-awaited Messiah. Mary Elizabeth has a natural exuberance for life. Mary, on the other hand, is reserved, quiet, and obedient. As the two girls mature into teenagers, each contemplates whether she is the Chosen One to bring the Christ Child into the world. Before Mary Elizabeth marries John, the bakers son, she has a vivid dream that seems to foretell of the Messiahs birth in a manger. Mary, who has just become betrothed to Joseph, the carpenters son, believes it is her best friend who will be Jesuss mother. But as Mary Elizabeth continues to be plagued by seemingly prophetic dreams, it is not until she is visited by the Lord that she finally receives the answer she needs. Two Girls from Nazareth shares a fictionalized adaptation of what might have happened between two teenage girls contemplating which one of them is the Chosen One who will birth the Christ Child.

Women have a strong desire for relational connections. Relationships between women can be especially enriching, but when conflict arises, they also can be especially damaging. Too many women approach conflict as if they were unbelievers-with gossip, spiteful actions, bitterness, and even hatred. In Peacemaking Women, Tara Klena Barthel and Judy Dabler offer a meaningful, lasting message to lead women out of conflict to a state of peace where they can live as representatives of Christ to one another and well as unbelievers. With advice that is firmly rooted in Scripture, the authors bring sound, practical help for women who want to know what the Bible says about conflict resolution and how to achieve peace in their relationships with God, self, and others.

It can always throw up surprises, as a lawyer's letter is about to prove.

A Times Higher Education Book of the Week Judith Butler elucidates the dynamics of public assembly under prevailing economic and political conditions, analyzing what they signify and how.

It does not turn its back on the circumstances of the material world or give any succour to those who wish to view the present (and the future) through the l...
