Now I was all about making it through by whatever worked. My pride went, somewhere in that long, hard first year. “Saved a little money.” Mostly by squatting rather than paying rent, eating at free kitchens. Me, a couple of illegal aliens, and a guy who was usually stoned. Found one after a while.” Crappy job, cleaning public bathrooms. I didn’t want anyone to see me walk out those prison gates an ex-con. After a moment he said, “When did you get out?” I could see a warped view of Adam, half his face, looking at me, his gaze steady but his lips pressed together uncertainly. There was a big teddy underneath it with this round little mirror on its stomach. He paused, like he was deciding what was safe to ask a wild man like me. I’ve missed you so fucking much!”Īdam was always braver than me. First time I saw him in years, and I about punched him. I dropped my fist and whirled away to hide the water in my eyes. “Sorry! God, Donnie, I’m really sorry, just don’t go yet. Adam flinched back, his empty palms held out. Fast as a snake, I hit his grip off my arm, harder than I meant to, my other fist coming up. ![]() ![]() ![]() Within the context of 1 Peter, it’s actually when Christians undergo suffering. And so it is in meaning to provide a reasonable defense with connotations of a legal case for why the Christian believes what the Christian believes. Now, Peter picks up that language in his epistle, in 1 Peter 3:15, which is sort of the classical apologetics verse where he says, “Always be ready to give an answer.” And that word to give an answer is an apologia. ![]() And so I think the first place we see the word used is in Plato’s Apology, where he’s telling the story of Socrates to give essentially a legal defense, which he calls an apology. In part one of this conversation, we talked about the “why” behind apologetics.Ĭhris Queen: What’s a good quick definition of apologetics?Įvan Posey: I guess to be a little bit historical, the word “apologetics” has a biblical basis, but it also has sort of a Greek philosophical basis. I’ve known Evan and his family for years, and he has given apologetics seminars at my home church. ![]() Evan Posey, executive vice president, provost, and assistant professor of theology and apologetics at Luther Rice College and Seminary in Stonecrest, Ga.

The series opens with Fogg at the stuffy Reform Club, where he spends his days reading newspapers. ![]() At stake is a wager of 20,000 British pounds: $3 million in today’s U.S. En route, they take all means of transport, while meeting increasingly dangerous obstacles. Shot on location on two continents, the Masterpiece series follows the trio’s expedition as they head east from London on October 5, 1872, intending to make it back to the Reform Club reading room by one o’clock on Christmas Eve. (Bly’s trip is documented in fascinating detail by the Heinz History Center in her hometown of Pittsburgh.) ![]() ![]() The eight-part drama draws on the author’s personal history of disappointment in love, and also gives a nod to New York World reporter Nellie Bly, who took a record-breaking around-the-world trip in 1890, inspired by Verne’s plot. Updating Verne’s ever popular tale of an epic road trip, Masterpiece introduces new themes, characters, and stories.

This book also has something that I’m very fond of in my books – strong secondary characters with their own personalities and stories to tell.īy the time you finish reading, you’ll feel that you know Esther’s maid and her eunuch guard as well as you know the primary characters. ![]() ![]() Full of intrigue, bad guys, and tension, it will keep you turning pages. And, in Wolf’s tale, he is something you might not expect of a king with a harem – faithful to the wife he loves.Ī Reluctant Queen is every bit as good as any Scottish Highlands romance novel I’ve ever read. She is brave, clever and intelligent.Īhasuerus is everything you want in a hero– attractive, strong-yet-kind, powerful, and witty. She is obedient to her guardian, Mordecai, and humble in her role as queen without being anyone’s doormat. It’s more one author’s interpretation of what the relationship between Esther and Ahasuerus might have been like.Įsther, as you would expect, is a strong character who displays compassion, grace, and a sense of humor. You’ll recognize the key players and the major details, but it’s not a repeat of the Biblical story with some extra embellishments thrown in. The story is a little different than you might remember the Bible. ![]() ![]() As Gentle, Judith, and Pie ‘oh’ pah travel the Imajica-from the darkness of its infernal regions into its visionary places-they uncover a trail of Dominion-spanning crimes and intimate betrayals that will lead them to a revelation so startling it will change the way you look at reality forever. They are worlds which are in many ways utterly unlike our own, but which are ruled, peopled, and haunted by species whose lives are intricately connected with us. That dimension-or Dominion, as it is known-is one of five in the great system called Imajica. At its heart lies the great sensualist and master art forger, Gentle, whose life of excess comes unravelled when he encounters two other unforgettable individuals: Judith Odell, whose power to influence the destinies of the men besotted by her is vaster than she knows, and Pie ‘oh’ pah, an alien assassin who comes from a dimension most of us don’t even know exists. Most of all, it’s a book of extraordinary characters. ![]() ![]() A book of ancient, mythological landscapes and even more ancient magic. A book of erotic mysteries and perverse violence. ![]() It’s an epic in every way vast in conception, obsessively detailed in execution, and apocalyptic in its resolution. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN a book like Transforming every expectation of fantasy fiction with its heady mingling of radical sexuality and spiritual anarchy, it has carried its millions of readers into regions of passion and philosophy that few books have even attempted to map. From master storyteller Clive Barker comes an epic tale of myth, magic, and forbidden passion-complete with new illustrations and a new Appendix. ![]() ![]() ![]() What a brilliant, emotive, empathetic and stirring adventure! It feels as though we are travelling with Martine, from Hampshire to the broad possibilities of South Africa, that we can scent the animals, and feel the heat and pulse. Yet who can she trust? Furthermore, how can she protect Jemmy, The White Giraffe? So what happens as the stories of the presence of the giraffe grow? Martine is aware of poachers- it’s how her grandfather lost his life. It seems as though the giraffe is able to help her discover a deeper history, of herself and then Sawubona, the animals and Africa. Martine is aware of the danger of sharing their encounters and then their almost intuitive bonds. What is the story? Thereafter, what does it mean when The White Giraffe appears to Martine? He seems to seek her out. Furthermore, when Martine meets a local mystic, who suggests she is linked to a mythical white giraffe, Martine’s grandmother is quick to shut down questions and stories. ![]() Yet Martine’s grandmother is unforthcoming about any of her history it’s as though she wants Martine to know nothing about her mother, nor of the reserve. Not only have they never met, but Martine had no idea of her certainly not that she ran Sawubona, a large game reserve. ![]() ![]() Tragedy strikes, leaving Martine with no choice but to leave England to live with her grandmother in South Africa. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I merge the abstraction of narrative with the physicality of objects. Although I work with emotionally heavy conceptual themes like loss, mortality, and the power and delicate nature of memory, my work is a reflection of my attempt to live my life in fragile exultation. I hope to reveal which parts of my life truly depict me and which parts I create to protect myself and base my gender identity on. Growing up queer, I sacrificed authenticity to minimize humiliation and prejudice. His objects and installations hope to explode process into an embodied visual narrative, a manifestation of our inner life.Īrtist Statement: My recent work is rooted in personal curiosity about how small, specific stories from my life as a queer person in the deep south of the United States might lead to wider conversations that become large installations and cloth prints that serve as axis points of innumerable relationships.I find political agency through the use of upcycling everyday clothes and constructed objects from thrift stores/trash/foraged materials. The work he creates function as spaces that allows the viewer to be guided through a thought process as well as evoking time and journey/text and image in an intimate fashion. His current works are explorations (visual) and meditations (poetry) centering on his ideas of spirituality, queer identity, death, shelter, and hope.
