Samuel Davies was an academic, evangelist, Presbyterian minister and poet. He was one of the earliest missionaries to slaves in the British colonies, and a strong advocate for religious freedom. Davies’ sermon, ‘Jesus Christ, the Only Foundation’, was delivered on February 13, 1757. The sermon is based on Isaiah 28:16-17 and 1 Peter 2:4, 6, which interprets the original as a reference to Jesus Christ. Davies explains the phrase ‘foundation stone’ in great detail, by discussing its properties and its power as a house built upon a rock, in contrast to one built on sand.

According to Smokie Norful, sometimes our lives feel like a pot of rice in his grandmother's kitchen: hissing, boiling over, about to explode and create panic.

Nearly 40 million people in the United States live below the poverty line - about $26,200 for a family of four. Low-income families and individuals are everywhere, from cities to rural communities.

Public policy has purposefully erected barriers that deny access to basic needs, creating a society where people can easily become trapped - not because we lack the resources to lift them out, but because we are actively choosing not to.

This book is packed with short, biblically based, gospel-centered, topical chapters addressing the issues grieving people face.

In Crackup, Samuel L. Popkin tells the story of how the Republican Party fractured into uncompromising groups with irreconcilable demands. Changes in campaign finance laws and the proliferation of mass media opened the way for newly energized groups to split the party. The 2002 "McCain-Feingold" campaign finance reform bill aimed to weaken the power of big corporations and strengthen political parties by ending corporate donations to the parties. Instead, it weakened legislative leaders and made bipartisanship toxic.
