Answers to teenagers’ 50 toughest questions: a rapid-response reference for youth leaders<\/a> \/by Phil Bell.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Authority, church, and society in George Herbert: return to the middle way<\/a> \/Christopher Hodgkins.\u00a0<\/strong>Argues that British writer Herbert (1593-1633) found his identity in nostalgia for comfortable old English ways: parish ministry; simple liturgy, poetry, and architecture; a constitutionally limited church and state, rather than rule by divine right. Explores the changes in his poetry and prose as interactions between rapidly changing times and his personal development.<\/p>\n

Confessions of a youth pasto<\/a>r \/”Doc” Hillliard].<\/strong><\/p>\n

Disciplinary measures from the metrical Psalms to Milton \/Kenneth J.E. Graham<\/a> (University of Waterloo, Canada).\u00a0\"\"<\/strong>Disciplinary Measures from the Metrical Psalms to Milton studies the relationship between English poetry and church discipline in four carefully chosen bodies of poetry written between the Reformation and the death of John Milton. Its primary goal is to fill a gap in the field of Protestant poetics, which has never produced a study focused on the way in which poetry participates in and reflects on the post-Reformation English Church’s attempts to govern conduct. Its secondary goal is to revise the understandings of discipline which social theorists and historians have offered, and which literary critics have largely accepted. It argues that knowledge of the early modern culture of discipline illuminates some important poetic traditions and some major English poets, and it shows that this poetry in turn throws light on verbal and affective aspects of the disciplinary process that prove difficult to access through other sources, challenging assumptions about the means of social control, the structures of authority, and the practical implications of doctrinal change.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Discovering and (re)covering the seventeenth century religious lyric<\/a> \/edited by Eugene R. Cunnar & Jeffrey Johnson.<\/strong>The purpose of this volume, is to discover and (re)cover the devotional lyricists who have historically been overlooked altogether or dismissed as not belonging to the first order of poets.<\/p>\n

Lovejoy.\u00a0<\/strong>his is the first technical volume to focus exclusively on the question of northern hemispheric migratory landbird declines and their conservation. More than one hundred leading scholars working in the Americas and the Caribbean report on the problems facing these birds and suggest strategies for research and conservation. The book details the basic ecology of many Neotropical migrant landbirds in both temperate and tropical regions.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The elegies, and The songs and sonnets<\/a> \/edited with introduction and commentary by Helen Gardner.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Billington.\u00a0<\/strong>this companion volume to the Library of Congress exhibition offers a fresh and intimate perspective on a man whose thoughts and words continue to affect history.

\"\"\u00a0John Donne and the Protestant Reformation: new perspectives<\/a> \/edited by Mary Arshagouni Papazian.\u00a0<\/strong>The collection includes thirteen essays that together place Donne broadly in the context of English and European traditions and explore his divine poetry, his prose work, the Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions, and his sermons. It becomes clear that in adopting the values of the Reformation, Donne does not completely reject everything from his Catholic background. Rather, the clash of religion erupts in his work in both moving and disconcerting ways. This collection offers a fresh understanding of Donne’s hard-won irenicism, which he achieved at great personal and professional risk.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0John Donne’s professional lives<\/a> \/edited by David Colclough.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>This volume makes a strong argument for the importance of Donne’s professional writings to our understanding of his oeuvre and of the culture of late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century England. Studying in depth his remarkable use of a wide range of terms and even whole vocabularies – legal, theological, and medical, among others – it shows how Donne moulded his identity as a professional intellectual with the languages that were at hand.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The Latin poetry.<\/a> A bilingual ed. translated by Mark McCloskey and Paul R. Murphy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Love known: theology and experience in George Herbert’s poetry<\/a> \/Richard Strier.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mental world of the Jacobean court<\/a> \/edited by Linda Levy Peck.\u00a0<\/strong>In this volume an international group of specialists in history literature and political theory set about reconstructing the mental world of the Jacobean court and challenging older orthodoxies on Jacobean politics, ideology, religion and culture. While the volume marks fresh departures in the study of the Jacobean court, it makes no attempt to offer a comprehensive study of the era. Rather, it presents chapters of original research, strongly interpretive in character, and sometimes in disagreement.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The most loving place in town: a modern-day parable for the church<\/a> \/Ken Blanchard & Phil Hodges.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Originals: how non-conformists move the world<\/a> \/Adam Grant. <\/strong>The New York Times bestselling author examines how people can champion new ideas–and how leaders can encourage originality in their organizations\u00a0\u00a0 In Originals<\/em> he \u00a0addresses the challenge of improving the world from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The road to character<\/a> \/David Brooks. <\/strong>A controversial and eye-opening look at how our culture has lost sight of the value of humility – defined as the opposite of self-preoccupation – and why only an engaged inner life can yield true meaning and fulfillment.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Scripture, culture, and agriculture: an Agrarian reading of the Bible<\/a> \/Ellen F. Davis ;\u00a0 foreword by Wendell Berry.\u00a0<\/strong>This book examines the theology and ethics of land use, especially the practices of modern industrialized agriculture, in light of critical biblical exegesis. Nine interrelated essays explore the biblical writers’ pervasive concern for the care of arable land against the background of the geography, social structures, and religious thought of ancient Israel. This approach consistently brings out neglected aspects of texts, both poetry and prose, that are central to Jewish and Christian traditions. Rather than seeking solutions from the past, Davis creates a conversation between ancient texts and contemporary agrarian writers; thus she provides a fresh perspective from which to view the destructive practices and assumptions that now dominate the global food economy. The biblical exegesis is wide-ranging and sophisticated; the language is literate and accessible to a broad audience.<\/p>\n

\"\"Shalom and the community of creation: an indigenous vision<\/a> \/Randy S. Woodley.<\/strong>\u00a0In\u00a0Shalom and the Community of Creation<\/i>\u00a0Woodley explores the Native American ‘Harmony Way,’ a concept that closely parallels biblical\u00a0shalom <\/i>as a way to\u00a0bring reconciliation between Euro-Westerners and indigenous peoples, a new connectedness with the Creator and creation, an end to imperial warfare, the ability to live in the moment, justice, restoration — and a more biblically authentic spirituality. Rooted in redemptive correction, this book calls for true partnership through the co-creation of new theological systems that foster wholeness and peace.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The temple: 1633<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\/ George Herbert.\u00a0The Temple<\/em>, a volume of lyrical poems, embodies expressions of Herbert’s personal struggles of faith and was used as a device of pastoral teaching. The book has a threefold structure in considering the significance of the symbols of the church architecture, the virtues of the Christian life, and the events of the Church\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Through a glass darkly: suffering, the sacred, and the sublime in literature and theory<\/a> \/edited by Holly Faith Nelson, Lynn R. Szabo, Jens Zimmermann. (TWU AUTHORS)<\/strong>The twenty-five essays in\u00a0Through a Glass Darkly: Suffering, the Sacred, and the Sublime in Literature and Theory<\/i>, written by international scholars working in the fields of literary criticism, philosophy, and history, address the ways in which literature and theory have engaged with these three concepts and related concerns.
