Martha from the Margins
In the popular imagination Martha has become synonymous with the harried housewife, fretting over excessive preparations. The Martha known to early Christians is far removed from this stereotype. Martha was better known for her role in the story of the raising of Lazarus and as apostle and witness of the resurrection. This book gathers and assesses the early traditions about Martha in text, liturgy and iconography. It shows that the significance of Martha has been seriously underestimated and recovers an important and widespread tradition of Martha as apostle and authority figure for early Christians. The analysis of Martha traditions with attention to issues of gender and authority render this book an important contribution to studies on women in early Christianity.

The Book of Christian
The book begins chronicling the character of Christian. It starts with a look into His privileged upbringing in middle class America. It describes Christian’s faith as being extremely real and visceral. Christian moves to Boston and one day prays this prayer: “God I want you to unify all Christians into one movement and I want to lead it.” God answers His prayer and shows Christian a passage of scripture that said, “If you obey my commands like David did, I will be with you like I was with David, will build you a house like I built him and will give Israel to you.” On this same day Christian was anointed with oil, confirming God’s call. He meets a girl and through her enjoys a fi...
Faith-Based ACT for Christian Clients
Faith-Based ACT for Christian Clients balances empirical evidence with theology to give clinicians a deep understanding of not just the "why" but also the "how" of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Christian clients. Chapters include a detailed exploration of the overlap between ACT and the Christian faith, case studies, and techniques that are explicitly designed to be accessible to non-Christian as well as Christian (including evangelical Christian) counselors and therapists. Chapters present the established research on mindfulness and ACT, including a nuanced, non-dichotomous view of complex issues such as medication, and lay a firm theological foundation through the use of engaging biblical stories and metaphors.
