Jesus Feeds the Dogs

In 1962, Don and Carol Richardson risked their lives to share the gospel with the Sawi people of New Guinea, a tribe known for their violent customs of cannibalism and treachery. The book recounts their extraordinary journey and how they used a redemptive analogy from the Sawi's own mythology, the 'peace child,' to introduce the Christian message. This analogy became a crucial stepping-stone for the gospel to enter the Sawi culture, leading to a spiritual and social revolution. The narrative includes the Richardsons' struggles, initial failures, and ultimate successes in communicating Christ in a meaningful way to the Sawi people, resulting in significant conversions and a transformation of their society.

In this book, George Eldon Ladd provides a clear and lucid examination of the biblical teachings about the second coming of Jesus Christ. Ladd sketches the history of interpretations of Christ’s second coming and argues that the 'blessed hope' is the second coming of Jesus Christ, rather than a pretribulation rapture. The book is written for a general Christian audience, aiming to guide readers in understanding the basic biblical teachings on this doctrine while promoting liberty and charity within the Christian community for differing views on the subject.

In 'Live Not By Lies', Rod Dreher warns American Christians about the dangers of what he terms 'soft totalitarianism', a form of totalitarianism that relies more on psychological manipulation than overt violence. Drawing on the experiences of Christians who lived under Soviet rule, Dreher provides practical advice on how to identify and resist this form of totalitarianism. The book outlines a method for resistance: SEE (acknowledge the reality), JUDGE (assess reality in light of Christian truth), and ACT (take action to protect truth). Dreher emphasizes the importance of spiritual preparation, family, church fellowship, and a willingness to suffer in order to resist the encroaching ideology.
