Scandalous Obligation: Rethinking Christian Responsibility

by Eric R. Severson

Responsibility is routinely overlooked, manipulated, and oversimplified. In Scandalous Obligation, Eric Severson explores the scope of Christian responsibility. This book delves into the slippery nature of obligation, the dilemma of competing calls for justice, and the perilous temptation to dismiss or avoid responsibility. Using examples from popular culture Severson casts an expansive and often daunting vision of responsibility that challenges the status quo. This book presses readers to consider the many complications that arise when Christians begin to understand the extent of their responsibility for the suffering that abounds in the world. It explores how Christians are to turn this approach to responsibility toward the clouds of injustice and pain that hang over our world today. With a brilliant use of Scripture, illustrations, and insights from classical literature and philosophy, Eric Severson makes us aware in this book that sin is not simply the breaking of rules, but is living with indifference to the needs of others when confronted by those needs. '--Tony Campolo, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, Eastern University, Author, Adventures in Missing the Point, Red Letter Christians. "In an era when so many Christians confuse their ethics with their politics, Severson summons the followers of Christ to once again take note of the 'alien at the gate.' Scandalous Obligation is a disturbing wake-up call to a church grown self-absorbed and complacent."--Karl Giberson, Vice President, BioLogos Foundation, Co-author, The Language of Faith and Science

The Devil and the Giro: Two Centuries of Scottish Stories

by Carl Mcdougall

Carl MacDougal has assembled a collection of Scottish short stories from the past 2 centuries which will appeal to a wide variety of reader. Drop in to the over 700 pages to read haunting tales of the supernatural, like the story of a sensitive girl born to fall in love with a man only she can see through a library window at twilight. Enjoy the Gudewife's comic instructions on how to Hammer a husband in to docility and obedience. Ponder the inevitability of death, as a son learns that preventing the death of one, can cause the deaths of all. Consider social commentary as a child refuses to parrot his catechism at Sunday school and a man approaching middle age without ever having kept a job fantasizes a better future while steadfastly clinging to near starvation on the giro supplemented by handouts. Sample short stories by familiar authors like Conan Doyle and Robert Lewis Stevenson. Some stories are told in Scottish dialect as it has evolved over the past 200 years and others are modern addressing issues of racial tolerance and alcoholism. MacDougal's commentaries include short biographical information about each author, a summary of the author's writing career, style, and place in literary history, and an explanation of the nature and relevance of the story to follow. Collectively these stories showcase the Scottish character in the city and in the country, from childhood to old age in every conceivable social and economic circumstance. The editor suggests further reading for each author. A 4 page list of works by Scottish authors in the Canongate Classics is included at the end of the book.

The Subtleties of the Inimitable Mulla Nasrudin, and the Exploits of the Incomparable Mulla Nasrudin

by Idries Shah

The Mulla and his stories appear in literature and oral traditions from the Middle East to Greece, Russia, France -- even China. Many nations claim Nasrudin as a native son, the Turks going so far as to exhibit a grave with his date of death as 386. But nobody really knows who he was or where he came from. According to a legend dating from at least the 13th century, Nasrudin was snatched as a schoolboy from the clutches of the "Old Villain" -- the crude system of thought that ensnares man -- to carry through the ages the message of how to escape. He was chosen because he could make people laugh, and humor has a way of slipping through the cracks of the most rigid thinking habits. Today -- as they have for centuries -- the Sufis use these stories as teaching exercises, in part to momentarily "freeze" situations in which states of mind can be recognized. In these delightful volumes, Shah not only gives the Mulla a proper vehicle for our times, he proves that the centuries-old stories and quips of Nasrudin are still some of the funniest jokes in the world.
