Faith Greater than Our Challenges

Christian Living

“To fully understand this book, be sure to read it and do the personal application exercise. Edmonson interweaves Paul’s letter to the Philippians with the work of the psychologist and survivor of the Shoah Viktor Frankl and with a study of Frankl by Pattakos and Dundon to create a textile woven of psychology, theology, and deep faith. Drawn from sermons delivered during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is both well done and inspiring.”

Finding America in Leviticus

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“What is the relationship between religious ritual and nation building? Drawing on the Bible, rabbinic sources, and American law, Rabbis Michael Broyde and Reuven Travis show that biblical-rabbinic tradition shapes religion into a nation-building ritual. They then propose a fascinating reshaping of the American civil calendar to do just that. Every reader will have to rethink his or her position on American holidays.”
