Were So Blessed
Sabotage At Cedar Creek
American In Persia
$21.58
Richard A. Kauffman tells stories of his encounters with Iranians, their culture, and their politics, to give witness to ways walls can break down when the stories, culture, and history of others are attended to.
Ever since the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the hostage taking of American diplomats in Tehran, there have been no diplomatic relationships between the U.S. and Iran. The image that many people in the West have of Iran is of a country run by radical Muslim clerics who support terrorism in the Middle East and are determined to build nuclear weapons that will pose a threat to Israel and beyond. This is only part of the reality.
Determined to get a fuller picture, Kauffman traveled to Iran as a journalist in 2008. What surprised him was how many total strangers approached him and his fellow travelers on the street, ensuring them of a positive image of their country-that they don’t hate Americans, they just have trouble with American political leadership. They showed the kind of hospitality for which Middle Eastern culture is known.
Kauffman is hopeful that Americans and Iranians aren’t doomed to be enemies and that mutual understanding is possible between Christians and Shi’a Muslims.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
