Compiled by his followers during his lifetime, the Book of Q (from Quelle, German for source) became the prime foundation for the New Testament gospels. Once lost, it has been reconstructed through a century of scholarship. In presenting his own translation, Burton Mack explains how the text of Q was determined and explores the implications of the discovery that Jesus was transformed into the dying and rising messianic savior of Christianity by the New Testament gospels.\" \"Instead of telling a dramatic story about Jesus' life as the Christian gospels do, the Book of Q contained only his sayings. The first followers of Jesus focused not upon his life and destiny, but on the social experiment called for by his teachings. Their book collected his proverbs, aphorisms, and parables to offer instruction in living authentically in the midst of a most confusing time.\" \"In The Lost Gospel, Burton Mack puts forth the first popular translation of Q as scholarly consensus has reconstructed it; shows that Jesus' life story as presented in the New Testament gospels was fictionalized for theological purposes; reveals Jesus to be a countercultural teacher and leader - subsequently mythologized into the Christ of the New Testament; depicts Jesus' followers not as Christians, but as disciples of a wise, antiestablishment teacher; they did not believe him to be the son of God, believe that he rose from the dead, or gather to worship in his name and concludes that Christianity is a mythologized religion (like Buddhism and other religions) rooted in a historical figure and teachings that in reality are quite remote from conventional beliefs.\"--Jacket.",1993,"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2kvtc4rvmkepgyx0e012m9.jpg?v=e8bca37700","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kx2kvtaejqr3p502ax1jh18s.png?v=0f52d53bcc","LKI2[%~8R7I=tP-TxDafEgnjNday","4.00",1,275,313,0,"complete",true,false,[17,17,17,17,17,17,17,14,17,17],[23],{"id":24,"slug":25,"name":26,"role":27,"bio":7},"01kx2kvtav2fh4xjp3f7kx2pf6","burton-l-mack-ndbt","Burton L.

K. Rowling’s Harry Potter novels have brought joy to children and adults alike. Many conservative Christians in the United States, however, have decried the books as wicked, as preaching witchcraft and the occult, and as glamorizing dishonesty. A minister in New Mexico held a “holy bonfire” on the Sunday after Christmas 2001, at which he publicly torched the Potter books, declaring them “an abomination to God and to me.” John Killinger, a Congregationalist minister and an academic in the field of contemporary literature, beautifully demolishes the objections of right-wing Christians to this bestselling children’s series. He compellingly argues that, far from corrupting children’s morals, the Potter stories actually influence young readers to follow the teachings of Jesus. He cites passage after passage to illustrate how the world of Harry Potter would be inconceivable apart from the strictures of Judeo-Christian theology and the way human existence should be approached by every follower of Jesus. Additionally, he reflects on the possibility that Harry Potter, like Dostoevsky’s Prince Myshkin and others, is a witting or unwitting Christ figure who actually battles the forces of darkness for the souls of the faithful. All through this extraordinarily well-written, compelling, and very entertaining little book, the author points out that stories like this are worth more than any sermon toward producing people who truly follow the lessons of Jesus. --Amazon review","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx29rqh6rj18d1dswpwds03p.jpg?v=fbba8ff9ca","LOP?s^WB%MxucuRjxtt7MHRjaxoe",2002,202,[223],{"id":224,"slug":225,"name":226},"01kx29rqgzhxp6vk8n8hkx13p0","john-killinger-9sdy","John Killinger",[228,229],{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":20},{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":125,"complexity":7,"audience":128,"mood":232,"themes":233,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[131,185],[],{"id":235,"slug":236,"title":237,"description":238,"primary_cover_url":239,"cover_blurhash":240,"first_publish_year":241,"community_rating_avg":242,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":243,"authors":244,"genres":249,"series":252,"enrichment":253},"01kx26p9x2tr7z6y7fjg1eczxc","the-modernity-of-witchcraft-politics-and-the-occult-in-postcolonial-africa-ayto","The Modernity of Witchcraft Politics and the Occult in Postcolonial Africa","To many Westerners, the disappearance of African traditions of witchcraft might seem inevitable wuth continued modernization.

The prevalence of witchcraft, especially in African politics and entrepreneurship, demonstrates the unlikely balance it has achieved with the forces of modernity.

Life in the crowded cottage is tense enough, and then, quite suddenly, Ruth, a Jewish girl from Germany, moves in. A German? The occupants of the house are horrified. But other impacts of the war become far more frightening. As death creeps closer to their door, life and morality during wartime grow more complex. Who is Ada now? How can she keep fighting? And who will she struggle to save?","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kwzrfwsyb925r8wy6448t7jj.jpg?v=560210795d","L5AU1^00O=V}03?^iuW90dt.VzR5",2017,"5.00",400,[362,366],{"id":363,"slug":364,"name":365},"01knqb0q7nm5z74yjeerbvs5zc","kimberly-brubaker-bradley-j9oc","Kimberly Brubaker Bradley",{"id":367,"slug":368,"name":369},"01kwzrfws4rhp2tv6zvjcwez93","josie-portillo-nffw","Josie Portillo",[371,375,376],{"id":372,"name":373,"slug":374,"is_fiction":19},54,"World War II","world-war-ii",{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":377,"name":378,"slug":379,"is_fiction":19},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",[],{"pace":162,"complexity":7,"audience":382,"mood":383,"themes":385,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"young_adult",[384,289],"emotional",[350,349],{"id":387,"slug":388,"title":389,"description":390,"primary_cover_url":391,"cover_blurhash":392,"first_publish_year":393,"community_rating_avg":359,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":394,"authors":395,"genres":400,"series":406,"enrichment":407},"01kx2gw7yvmx2nh237d8sbzjds","the-physick-book-of-deliverance-dane-ks0n","The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane","***A spellbinding, beautifully* written novel that moves between contemporary times and one of the most fascinating and disturbing periods in American history--the Salem witch trials.** Harvard graduate student Connie Goodwin needs to spend her summer doing research for her doctoral dissertation. But when her mother asks her to handle the sale of Connie's grandmother's abandoned home near Salem, she can't refuse. As she is drawn deeper into the mysteries of the family house, Connie discovers an ancient key within a seventeenth-century Bible. The key contains a yellowing fragment of parchment with a name written upon it: Deliverance Dane. This discovery launches Connie on a quest--to find out who this woman was and to unearth a rare artifact of singular power: a physick book, its pages a secret repository for lost knowledge. As the pieces of Deliverance's harrowing story begin to fall into place, Connie is haunted by visions of the long-ago witch trials, and she begins to fear that she is more tied to Salem's dark past then she could have ever imagined. Written with astonishing conviction and grace, *The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane* travels seamlessly between the witch trials of the 1690s and a modern woman's story of mystery, intrigue, and revelation. This description comes from the 2009 Voice hardcover edition.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2gw7z6fywbrw1fmf5ks5tx.jpg?v=e9e9f8ce52","LZGldwNeD*tj~mt6D+bED,t6RlIV",2009,384,[396],{"id":397,"slug":398,"name":399},"01kpan2kteaajjbywaqt2m4zp8","katherine-howe-zsqi","Katherine Howe",[401,405],{"id":402,"name":403,"slug":404,"is_fiction":19},212,"Historical Mystery","historical-mystery",{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":162,"complexity":7,"audience":128,"mood":408,"themes":410,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[409,255],"mysterious",[],{"id":412,"slug":413,"title":414,"description":415,"primary_cover_url":416,"cover_blurhash":417,"first_publish_year":418,"community_rating_avg":359,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":419,"authors":420,"genres":425,"series":434,"enrichment":435},"01kx2hzn0w4c7wjyfg5yht6gva","night-chills-n6km","Night Chills","Designed by top scientists and unleashed in a monstrous conspiracy, night chills are seizing the men and women of Black River--driving them to acts of rape and murder.

The result is pure Ackerman: a splendid, serious, scientific, poetic, playful, and lyrical \"tour d'horizon\" of love's many forms and faces. Ackerman draws on a variety of sources, both classical and from her immediate experience. The historical, cultural, religious, and biological roots of love are all explored and illuminated. She gives a fresh new reading to Freud (\"mapping the war zones of the heart\"), Stendhal (love as fantasy), and Proust (\"the erotics of waiting\"), and draws lessons from lovers across time. Her attention then moves to the physical - the chemistry, biology, and neurophysiology associated with love in the brain, mind, and body. She discusses the \"evolution of the face,\" the cuddle, both as caress and as chemical, and the customs of marriage. There are astonishments everywhere. Her distinctive touch, aided by her personal adventures and explorations, enriches our understanding of women and horses, men and mermaids, sex and flying, and other equally enticing subjects. The book begins: \"Love is the great intangible.\" Diane Ackerman then proceeds to make it more tangible, traceable, breathable, and ... well, lovable.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2m3eyqtmn59j653rzsp6q7.jpg?v=60ce28a326","LDQcn{IU~qt7?bofRjWBt7of-;xu",1994,358,[475],{"id":476,"slug":477,"name":478},"01kjr9ns73pxsf6a4jr6q01m3j","diane-ackerman-rfwd","Diane Ackerman",[480,484,488],{"id":481,"name":482,"slug":483,"is_fiction":20},96,"Psychology","psychology",{"id":485,"name":486,"slug":487,"is_fiction":20},92,"Science","science",{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":125,"complexity":7,"audience":128,"mood":491,"themes":492,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[131,185],[],{"id":494,"slug":495,"title":496,"description":497,"primary_cover_url":498,"cover_blurhash":499,"first_publish_year":500,"community_rating_avg":242,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":402,"authors":501,"genres":506,"series":512,"enrichment":513},"01kx28a6qnt1nyjg27tt7smz68","slave-women-in-caribbean-society-1650-1838-fkzi","Slave Women in Caribbean Society, 1650-1838","In this text the author sets forth and then evaulates the images of slave women accumulated in published sources and folklore.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx28a6r91ccg21v10sm77ff7.jpg?v=bd30174fa4","LHI$$hR*~CR%9ta#ofbIDikVtRWU",1990,[502],{"id":503,"slug":504,"name":505},"01kx28a6r2zzfb3ce47s3xqsa5","barbara-bush-62pp","Barbara Bush",[507,508],{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":509,"name":510,"slug":511,"is_fiction":20},83,"Sociology","sociology",[],{"pace":125,"complexity":7,"audience":128,"mood":514,"themes":516,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[515,185],"informative",[],{"key":518,"params":519,"works":520},"genre",{"genre":35},[521,549,574,602,623,650],{"id":522,"slug":523,"title":524,"description":525,"primary_cover_url":526,"cover_blurhash":527,"first_publish_year":528,"community_rating_avg":13,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":529,"authors":530,"genres":535,"series":545,"enrichment":546},"01kx2jas81bthe3f2t76pkcfkg","one-day-my-soul-just-opened-up-kptz","One day my soul just opened up","One Day My Soul Just Opened Up is a program of inspiration and motivation that will help you work through problems and improve your emotional and spiritual health.

Kushner, the author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People, a book that shows us how to be our best selves even when things don't turn out as we had hoped--that is, how we can overcome life's disappointments.Kushner turns to the experience of Moses to find the requisite lessons of strength and faith. Moses towers over all others in the Old Testament: he is the man on the mountaintop to whom God speaks with unparalleled intimacy, and he leads his people out of bondage. But he is also deeply human, someone whose soaring triumphs are offset by frustration and longing: his people ignore his teachings, he is denied entrance to the Promised Land, his family suffers. But he overcomes.Through the example of Moses' remarkable resilience, we learn how to weather the disillusionment of dreams unfulfilled, the pain of a lost job or promotion, a child's failures, divorce or abandonment, and illness. We learn how to meet all disappointments with faith in ourselves and the future, and how to respond to heartbreak with understanding rather than bitterness and despair.This is a book of spiritual wisdom--as practical as it is inspiring.From the Hardcover edition.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2c5hf481x60gbg0txxw5aj.jpg?v=84b9d34086","L*R.7Dt7oLof*JkCa|fkQmayjZf6",2006,231,[559],{"id":560,"slug":561,"name":562},"01kx2c5heynyztspa62kddc4jg","harold-s-kushner-kqnm","Harold S.
