In this incredible memoir, Nan brings gives unusual insights into pieces of American history that come alive.

Book Description
Lament is how you live between the poles of a hard life and trusting God’s goodness. Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God—but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow. Lament avoids trite answers and quick solutions, progressively moving us toward deeper worship and trust. Exploring how the Bible—through the psalms of lament and the book of Lamentations—gives voice to our pain, this book invites us to grieve, struggle, and tap into the rich reservoir of grace and mercy God offers in the darkest moments of our lives.

Book Description
Since the early 4th century, Christian pilgrims and visitors to Judea and Galilee have worshipped at and been inspired by monumental churches erected at sites traditionally connected with the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. This book examines the history and archaeology of early Christian holy sites and traditions connected with specific places in order to understand them as interpretations of Jesus and to explore them as instantiations of memories of him. Ryan's overarching aim is to construe these places as instantiations of what historian Pierre Nora has called “lieux de mémoires,” sites where memory crystallizes and, where possible, to track the course and development of the traditions underlying them from their genesis in the Gospel narratives to their eventual solidification in the form of pilgrimage sites. So doing will bring rarely considered evidence to the study of early Christian memory, which in turn helps to illuminate the person of Jesus himself in both history and reception.

Book Description
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON, EXACTLY LIKE GOD THE FATHER AND THE SON. SADLY, HE IS THE LEAST KNOWN OF THE TRINITY. YET, JESUS PUTS SUCH EMPHASIS ON HIM THAT MUST NOT ESCAPE HUMAN ATTENTION. FOR, TO KNOW GOD WITHOUT KNOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT, IS TO KNOW GOD, ONLY IN PART.
