You have been lied to about Christopher Columbus. You know the year he sailed the ocean blue. And maybe you heard that he committed crimes against humanity. But The Last Crusader sets the record straight. More than anything, Christopher Columbus sought the means to subsidize a new Crusade to free the Holy Land from the Moslem hordes. Yes Columbus hoped to open trade routes to the Indies, and he certainly aspired to the privileges and titles that come with discovering new lands. But Christian zeal for the Great Commission was the animating principle for a life of danger and risk and discovery.

The classic fantasy that influenced C. S. Lewis and Tolkien, considered one of George MacDonald's most important works, is the story of the young man, Anodos, and his adventures in fairyland which ultimately reveal the human condition. "I write, not for children," wrote George MacDonald, "but for the child-like, whether they be of five, or 50, or 75." All-at-once written with an innocent whimsy and soulful yearning, the heart of Anodos' journey through fairyland reveals a spiritual quest that requires a surrender of the self.

Divorce doesn't just end a marriage. It fractures identity, routines, faith, finances, friendships, and the version of yourself you thought you'd become. Single Man Walking Through Divorce is not a how-to manual or a polished success story. It's one man's honest account of what happens after everything falls apart-and how healing actually unfolds when there's no shortcut around the pain. George Lamelza doesn't write as an expert offering tidy answers from a distance.

The kind that asks you to keep going—not because it’s easy, but because it’s right. Strength is about what happens after the big moments. When the stage is gone and the room is quiet. When decisions must be lived out over ...

When people think of research, they often picture graphs, p-values, and percentages. These tools are important, but they do not capture everything. Why does a patient miss an appointment? How does a teenager describe living with anxiety? What makes a community trust—or distrust—its health system? These are questions that demand more than numbers. Qualitative research provides that “more.” It gives us methods to hear, interpret, and amplify human voices. It lets us step into lived experiences and translate them into knowledge that shapes better policies, stronger programs, and more ...
