If books on homosexuality are written by homosexuals or sympathetic heterosexuals, they tend to be intellectual sex manuals, histories, pathological treatises, or pop renderings of a bizarre topic. Most repeat each other. If books on homosexuality are written by critical heterosexuals, then law, psychology, or religion are used to condemn homosexuality and laud the heterosexual "norm." In WHICH WAY OUT OF THE MEN'S ROOM? Gordon Johnston breaks away from this traditional framework and constructs a fresh and revealing approach to the examination of the heterosexual/homosexual interrelationship. Includes chapter notes and a bibliography.

Few books have sought to exhaustively trace the theme of Messiah through all of Scripture, but this book does so with the expert analysis of three leading evangelical scholars. For the Bible student and pastor, Jesus the Messiahpresents a comprehensive picture of both scriptural and cultural expectations surrounding the Messiah, from an examination of the Old Testament promises to their unique and perfect fulfillment in Jesus' life.
Students of the life of Christ will benefit from the authors' rich understanding of ancient biblical culture and pastors will find an indispensable help for understanding the unity and importance of the ancient promise of Messiah. This handsome volume will be a ready reference on Messiah for years to come.

In this brief illustrated guide to the national monument located in Macon, Georgia, that conserves ancient Mississippian mounds and 12,000 years of human presence along the Ocmulgee River, Matthew Jennings and Gordon Johnston, like G.D. Pope and Lonnie Davis in earlier guides, introduce readers to the park's history, archaeology, Native cultures, and landscape. Jennings both updates the history and adds an account of the intercultural exchange that the park has brought about between the post-removal Muscogee Creek people native to the area and Georgians of the last several generations. This new guide braids into Jennings's concise historical overview Gordon Johnston's field notes and poems, written while Johnston was writer-in-residence at Ocmulgee National Monument, about the park's woods, streams, artifacts, and wildlife. The book includes transcriptions of oral stories by William Harjo (Muscogee) and an array of photographs and images, many of them new, that span the park's history, including Ocmulgee, an installation by artist Hock E Aye Vi Edgar Heap of Birds (Cheyenne/Arapaho) in Atlanta in 2005.

This debut collection braids together published and new poems into a lyrical album quilt of stories and scenes. Wryly funny, earthy, susceptible to river shoals, hymns, old tools, and favorite shirts, these poems refuse to waste their troubles. They talk back to the dangers along the trail. In the title poem of Scaring The Bears, a man descending alone into a canyon to fish fires off random words and phrases to spook any predators that might be on the path ahead. This talking back to threats and trouble is something many of the poems in the collection do. The potential blessings and losses in fathering, in having sick friends, in acts of faith, in the work of marriage, and in risking everything from minor surgery to gutting trout in grizzly country give these poems tension, drama, and a wry, grateful humanity. The voice, by turns funny, elegiac, lonesome, and lusty, is a voice of experience, susceptible to the worn, found beauties of cypress knees, inherited tools, spider hearts, and tomatoes ripening on a windowsill. This collection finds courage in clear, careful description. These poems make good company.

In the title poem of Gordon Johnston's second collection, a canoer with his keel in a quick current is too caught up in the flow of water, sunlight, and sycamore leaves to say precisely where he is on the river. He is constantly both arriving and departing, negotiating his passage through a riverscape that is as ancient as it is newborn, that is mapped and familiar but always in flux. These poems engage the losses and renewals of this flux in Southern rivers and woods as well as in the wilds of West Virginia, Wyoming, and Oklahoma."Lonely Middles" confronts the mortality of friends and parents, letting sons and daughters grow up, wrestling with depression, and trying to find stable footing in mid-life as the ecstatic alternates with the awful. Telling stories, writing letters, cutting back brush, carving canoes, listening to Wilco, these poems find fellowship in each of these acts. By turns wryly funny, rueful, awed, and nostalgic, these poems make the reader glad to be there.
