Book excerpt: Reflecting on forty years of matrimony, John Piper exalts the biblical meaning of marriage over its emotion, exhorting couples to keep their covenant for all the best reasons. Even in the days when people commonly stayed married "'til death do us part," there has never been a generation whose view of marriage was high enough, says Pastor John Piper. That is all the more true in our casual times. Though personal selfishness and cultural bondage obstruct the wonder of God's purpose, it is found in God's Word, where his design can awaken a glorious vision capable of freeing every person from small, Christ-ignoring, romance-intoxicated views. As Piper explains in reflecting on forty years of matrimony: "Most foundationally, marriage is the doing of God. And ultimately, marriage is the display of God. It displays the covenant-keeping love between Christ and his people to the world in a way that no other event or institution does. Marriage, therefore, is not mainly about being in love. It's mainly about telling the truth with our lives. And staying married is not about staying in love. It is about keeping covenant and putting the glory of Christ's covenant-keeping love on display." This Momentary Marriage unpacks the biblical vision, its unexpected contours, and its weighty implications for married, single, divorced, and remarried alike.

Book excerpt: Christianity is a Permanent Thing; this work is about how Christians should defend Christianity and other Permanent Things in an increasingly hostile civilization. It is a continuation of the dialogue of Schaeffer, MacIntyre, Moore and Dreher and owes much to Eliot, Yeats and Kirk for inspiration. No book or idea stands alone, we all stand on the shoulders of giants and this is no exception. Herein I offer a contribution to the Benedictine approach to the dilemma Christianity faces of an increasingly post-Christian and perhaps potentially anti-Christian civilization. In our era, these concepts were first articulated in 1981 by Francis August Schaeffer, in A Christian Manifesto and Alasdair MacIntyre in After Virtue describing in detail the problems so eloquently penned by W.B. Yeats in 1919. Hoppe furthered the discussion in 2001 by pointing out the failure of Western Ideology and its implications. Others have since written on the subject, Lee Strang in 2006 called for a legal scholar to rise as a St. Benedict, Russell Moore offered an optimistic way ahead in 2015. Rod Dreher codified the idea in The Benedict Option into a realistic and workable concept in 2017. At the heart of it, all of these efforts have approached the idea of Christianity as a Permanent thing and wondered how Christians might defend permanent things in a changing world. Individuals like Mike Church, denied employment for standing upon principles, are living Benedictine lives, seeking to pursue their vocation in alternate ways and to make a difference. There are others, groups, and individuals. This offering owes to the intellectual and vocational efforts of others, their examples and their dedication. Retrenchment addresses three areas, the individual, local church and local community and discusses the problems we in Christianity have traditionally faced that prevent cooperation and love of our brothers and sisters in Christ. This is a less optimistic book that Dreher’s, things have progressed perhaps faster than could have been imagined in the two years since his book was written. I suspect others will write even less optimistic books in the years to come, things will get worse before they get better. But, there are things we can and should be doing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible-believing Christians agree that it is essential to act on Jesus' words while the present storm of marital unfaithfulness and divorce swirls around us. Yet there is uncertainty about Jesus' commands concerning divorce and remarriage. Do we truly understand the words of Christ (and Paul)? In Divorce and Remarriage: A Permanence View, the authors explain in detail why they believe that Jesus did not allow divorce for any reason and did not permit remarriage if a former spouse was living. This view proposes that the "exception clause" given by Jesus must be understood in its ethnic and exegetical context if Christ's intent for marriage is to be fully comprehended. The result is a perspective that harmonizes all of what Paul and the Gospels teach about divorce and remarriage. The authors' view is summarized in the following three statements: the one flesh-union created in marriage is permanent until death; initiating a divorce is never lawful; remarrying after divorce is an act of adultery if a former spouse is living.

Download or read book Uprooted written by Grace Olmstead and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A superior exploration of the consequences of the hollowing out of our agricultural heartlands."—Kirkus Reviews In the tradition of Wendell Berry, a young writer wrestles with what we owe the places we’ve left behind. In the tiny farm town of Emmett, Idaho, there are two kinds of people: those who leave and those who stay. Those who leave go in search of greener pastures, better jobs, and college. Those who stay are left to contend with thinning communities, punishing government farm policy, and environmental decay. Grace Olmstead, now a journalist in Washington, DC, is one who left, and in Uprooted, she examines the heartbreaking consequences of uprooting—for Emmett, and for the greater heartland America. Part memoir, part journalistic investigation, Uprooted wrestles with the questions of what we owe the places we come from and what we are willing to sacrifice for profit and progress. As part of her own quest to decide whether or not to return to her roots, Olmstead revisits the stories of those who, like her great-grandparents and grandparents, made Emmett a strong community and her childhood idyllic. She looks at the stark realities of farming life today, identifying the government policies and big agriculture practices that make it almost impossible for such towns to survive. And she explores the ranks of Emmett’s newcomers and what growth means for the area’s farming tradition. Avoiding both sentimental devotion to the past and blind faith in progress, Olmstead uncovers ways modern life attacks all of our roots, both metaphorical and literal. She brings readers face to face with the damage and brain drain left in the wake of our pursuit of self-improvement, economic opportunity, and so-called growth. Ultimately, she comes to an uneasy conclusion for herself: one can cultivate habits and practices that promote rootedness wherever one may be, but: some things, once lost, cannot be recovered.
