"With the exception of Samuel Adams, no name is oftener found in connection with the public acts of the day, than that of William Molineux, and his death ... was a great loss to the patriot cause."¿Francis S. Drake, nineteenth-century historianIf not for William Molineux, a man of determined spirit and rowdy imagination, the Boston Tea Party might never have happened. His fight for freedom is eerily similar to what Americans face in the opening decades of the twenty-first century.He and next-door neighbor John Hancock engage in illicit trade deals with Holland for a precious commodity-untaxed tea. When British troops set up camp within sight of Molineux's front door, he springs into action. His rabble-rousing ways lead to his being dubbed the author of the so-called Boston Massacre and culminate in the iconic Boston Tea Party. History comes to life in this family-friendly, liberty-loving novel that seeks to rekindle The Spirit of a Revolution.

It is possible to set aside the things that have held us back-unforgiveness is a big one-and grow toward maturity in our Christian faith. In a time when division runs rampant-even in the church-and believers shred each other publicly for differing opinions, one man bravely steps out to call Christians to unity in the One who binds them all together-Jesus Christ. Author James W. Walraven dares to suggest that Christians make wiser choices, forgive one another, and mature in their faith.Walraven, author of Will God Save Everyone, doesn't shy away from tough topics. He suggests that though doctrines diverge, rather than separate over differences, Christians rally around the truth of the gospel-believers should treat others better than themselves. In a me-first, turbulent culture, the biblical call to love one another is almost a radical concept, but Walraven is convinced unity can be achieved.In One in Christ, readers will discover, among others, what biblical unity looks like as seen in the relationship of God the Father and God the Son; causes of strife and how to deal with discord; ways to cultivate intimacy with God and other believers; the basis for and call to Christian unity; how to recognize and resist false teaching; what it means to mature in Christ. Written with strength through supporting Scriptures and other resources, yet with personal vulnerability, each chapter concludes with thought-provoking personal challenges designed to move believers closer to oneness in Christ.

After all, the Bible is clear that homosexuality is a sin, but how should Christians approach the people who are part of the  LGBTQ+ community? What kind of impact is the Church having on them? Are we building bridges or walls to the kingdom of God? The Acceptable Sin offers Christians a hopeful way forward in answering these questions.

"Astoria is the gateway by the sea, and Portland is the gateway by land. I suspect that Astoria will not be quiet and obscure for long." -George FlavelAstoria, Oregon, owes its existence as much to a little-known ship captain as its namesake, John Jacob Astor. Captain George Flavel happened upon the ramshackle village at the mouth of the Columbia River in the fall of 1849, bringing goods during the California Gold Rush. As he subsequently captained and piloted three different ships along the Pacific coast, he learned that the perilous Columbia River Bar, the "graveyard of the Pacific," barred the entrance to most mariners. Hazards abounded. Tides and currents merged with the river''s flow, storms, and winds to produce towering waves and an ever-shifting bar-a living, breathing peril to lives, shipping, and cargo. But Flavel recognized that a wise and knowledgeable pilot could master this peril and possibly build a career and a future.On the basis of his knowledge and sailing experience, the State of Oregon commissioned Flavel as a pilot. Then appointed harbormaster by Astoria, Flavel and the piloting team he built successfully guided hundreds of ships into the port over more than thirty years. Marrying the daughter of his boardinghouse host, he built businesses on the waterfront and increasingly led in his community and on the city council and school board, and he devoted his personal and professional life to his adopted home.Jon Drury, upon discovering that no book had been written about one of the most influential persons in Astoria''s history, remedies that with this account, which showcases Flavel''s courage, inspiring character, and professional excellence. The Flavel House, a must-see in Astoria, showcases the captain, his career, and the home his family built in the community they loved.
