Amish : Why They Enchant Us
$8.99
The Amish are one of America’s most fascinating and colorful religious
communities. But how does a traditional group that shuns high school,
computers, and the ownership of motor vehicles survive amid a high tech
society? This concise and authoritative overview describes both the
diversity and common practices of the Amish of North America as well as some
of the changes underway in their communities. In a lively text, Donald B.
Kraybill, a leading scholar of Amish culture explains many of their puzzling
practices and shows how the Amish flourish in the midst of modern society.
Some interesting facts from The Amish: Why They Enchant Us:
Many elderly Amish live in a Grossdawdy (grandparent) house or apartment
adjacent to the homes of one of their adult children.
Children in most Amish communities dress in similar styles to their parents.
Amish churches have been established in some 200 communities in about 25
states as well as in Ontario, Canada.
In some ways, the Amish trouble us, even torment us. We worry that without
modern technology, higher education, the latest fashions, and unfettered
freedom, they might, in fact, be just as happy, if not happier than the rest
of us. And so the Amish enchant and trouble us at the same time. They prod
us to reflect on the sources of meaning and purpose, on the roots of human
happiness.

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.
