A Christian Vision of Human Sexuality
Center for Pastor Theologians Series
Edited by Gerald L. Hiestand and Todd Wilson
Humans are sexual creatures.
Our sexuality can be a beautiful and mysterious expression of what it means to be human. But it can also become distorted and sinful.

paperbackFaith-Rooted Organizing
Mobilizing the Church in Service to the World
by Rev. Alexia Salvatierra and Peter Heltzel
With so many injustices, small and great, across the world and right at our doorstep, what are people of faith to do? Since the 1930s, organizing movements for social justice in the U.S. have largely been built on assumptions that are secular origin—such as reliance on self-interest and having a common enemy as a motivator for change. But what if Christians were to shape their organizing around ...
