    Beyond Ethnic Loneliness

    The Pain of Marginalization and the Path to Belonging

    by Prasanta Verma

    "So what are you? Go back where you belong!"

    Majority white American culture has historically marginalized people of color, who at times feel invisible and alienated and at other times are traumatized by oppression and public discrimination. This reality leads to a particular kind of aloneness: ethnic and racial loneliness.

    2 Corinthians

    N. T. Wright for Everyone Bible Study Guides

    by N. T. Wright and Patty Pell

    Paul's second letter to the Corinthians explores the meaning of the cross in terms of personal suffering--his own, and that of all the Messiah's people.

    The Bible Questions

    Shedding Light on the World's Most Important Book

    Reading the Bible Between the Ancient World and Modern Science

    Christians often claim to hold a biblical worldview. But what about a biblical cosmos view? From the beginning of Genesis we encounter a vaulted dome above the earth, a "firmament," like the ceiling of a planetarium. Elsewhere we read of the earth sitting on pillars. What does the dome of heaven have to do with deep space? Even when the biblical language is clearly poetic, it seems to be funded ...
