How you eat affects the planet – and everyone else on it. What you eat might literally cost the earth. It also has implications for your health, for the grower or producer, and for the way you think about the world. What in God’s Name Are You Eating? faces what many of us choose to ignore in the Western world: we, as adults, have allowed a childlike innocence to mask the real cost of the environment in which we are cocooned, while thousands elsewhere find themselves drought-stricken and starving. “What in God’s name are they not eating?” “Enough” is the simple answer and we are part of the reason why. The price of ‘life’, as we know it, is high. To those of us who have ‘life’, there is a moral imperative to enable others to share it rather than suppress them. With its advocacy of a globally responsibly discipleship, What in God’s Name Are You Eating? enables us to see how the world’s peoples can have life and a long future. While the reflection is rooted in radical Mennonite Christianity, the challenge is to those of faith – and those of none.

At the Edge of Law: Emergent and Divergent Models of Legal Professionalism

Following significant changes in the legal profession since the 1980s, how do new organizational forms and actors at the edge of the law impact upon our understanding of the changing nature of the core values of mainstream legal professionalism? This methodological approach brings together a series of case studies built on original empirical research and focuses on those operating at the margins of legal professionalism in England and Wales. Also including comparative material on the US and Canada, the issues discussed are relevant for common law countries more generally and the analysis reveals the ways in which an increasingly fluid, fragmented and heterogeneous legal profession is responding to the challenges it faces in the early twenty-first century.

Nature religions look to rivers, lakes and oceans for inspiration and spiritual transformation. 'Deep Blue' brings together the work of influential scholars in the field of nature religion, ranging across anthropology, mythology, sociology and psychology.

Tracing the ancient history of humanity's close relationship with both salt and fresh water, the book calls for a sustainable relationship with water in contemporary western culture. 'Deep Blue' will be of interest to students of paganism and religion, environmental researchers and activists, and all those involved in the intersection between religion and ecology.

What in God's Name Are You Eating?: How Can Christians Live and Eat Responsibly in Today's Global Village?

How you eat affects the planet--and everyone else on it. What you eat might literally cost the earth. But it has implications for your health, the grower or producer, and the way you think about the world. What in God's Name Are You Eating? is full of questions and information to help you and those you live and work with reflect on major issues about food and lifestyle. Andrew Francis is a community theologian who grows vegetables and fruit in his backyard, bakes bread, and cooks for family, friends, coworkers, and his students. He is an artist and poet who puts his hands in the earth, who has traveled widely and has eaten with many and is still learning from different races, faiths, and cultures. What in God's Name Are You Eating? is about how we live now so that the world's peoples might have life and a long future. While the reflection is rooted in radical Mennonite Christianity, the challenge is to those of faith (and of none). This book invites you to ""choose life.""   ""Francis sets out to tackle what is undoubtedly one of the most important issues we are facing today: our diets. What we put on our plates, and how it found its way there, has political, economic, and steep environmental repercussions. What in God's Name Are You Eating? can have a direct and immediate impact on our lives, the lives of others, and the planet. Put down whatever else you're reading and read this book. It's that important."" --Tripp York, co-editor of The Peaceable Kingdom Series  ""Jesus enjoyed eating: and so should we, but not on the basis of ignorance. So argues Andrew Francis as he leads us on a tour of some big challenges for living faithfully, in a world where the food system is placing unsustainable pressure on our shared and finite planet."" --David Nussbaum, Chief Executive, WWF, UK  ""Having read this compelling book I can only conclude that it is a book that has been a long time in coming and it should be read by every living person, young and old, who cares about the impact of human activity on our world."" --Allan Armstrong, author of Notes on Meditation  ""With comprehensive research and British wit, Andrew helps the reader digest the seriousness of what we eat and its impact on us, others, and our ecosystem. Committed to godly stewardship and provision for all humanity, he makes practical suggestions for making a crucial difference. Andrew practices what he preaches and challenges us to take steps toward that vision. We have dined at Andrew's table and we join him on this journey."" --Darrell & Barbara Jantz, hosts, London Mennonite Centre & Mennonite Trust, 2010-2013, Hesston, KS  ""Andrew Francis wisely recognizes that the way we eat is an act of faith, and that discussions of our food choices belong in our churches, temples, and synagogues. Most importantly for this time of uncertainty, he includes an extensive list of positive steps that can be taken by any reader. Francis reminds us that growing our awareness of the global food system can be a joyful journey of faith."" --Melissa Hochstetler, CSA farmer, Minneapolis, MN   Andrew Francis is a writer, community theologian, and former executive vice-chair of the UK Mennonite Trust. His doctorate (Princeton Theological Seminary) examined how religious communities use food and eat together. He is a published poet, and author of Hospitality and Community After Christendom (2012).

Before COVID-19 reshaped the way we looked at the world and life's big questions, the Western church was already being pushed from the center to the margins of society. We are entering a time which the experts call "after Christendom." New and emerging churches are appearing and many traditional congregations are struggling. How can we do all that Jesus wants us to do as we follow him?Jesus was baptized and shared bread and wine with his disciples--as the church does today. Most Christians believe baptism and the bread-and-wine moment are sacraments. What does that mean? There are many other Christians who believe that anointing, confirmation, marriage, ordaining Christian leaders, and penance (or reconciliation) are also sacraments. Are they? Why should we believe that? Who tells us that we should?This book takes a dynamic approach, calling for a new way in thinking about, discussing, and sharing the sacraments. How do our past practices measure up to the mission of God today? What is the Holy Spirit saying? What are you going to do? This book sets the agenda!
