This book is for Christian leaders who are driven rather than called—who are living as orphans rather than heirs. David McNitzky was driven once, and he was living into a vision of church leadership that threatened to make him into a “Herod the Great” for the modern age. In this book, David asks Christian leaders to meet Herod “again for the first time.” Examine how Herod and David fell off track—how they lived as orphans instead of heirs to our Father’s Kingdom, “on earth as it is in heaven.” David offers you his hope as a beloved son of the Father...hope Herod never found.

A true story... 
The amazing and miraculous true story of Clyde Thompson. He killed two men when he was 17 years old. The year was 1928 and the place was rural west Texas. He was nearly lynched while awaiting trial and then was sent to death row. Thompson’s killing streak didn’t stop there. Nor did his desire to escape from prison. Prison officials finally gave him The Meanest Man in Texas moniker, and the prison chaplain said he was a man without a soul. Without hope, Thompson reached out for help. Then his life started to change.

Poetry. This is the first book-length collection of poetry from Philadelphia poet Dan Featherston. "INTO THE EARTH takes us down, with Orpheus, into weight, gravity, and the depth of dreams, into longing, into seemingly simple objects, and into an inescapable and instructive melancholy"-Hank Lazer. "Spare and rich, there's an uncanny precision to Dan Featherston's work that blends the crystalline relations of geometry with the endless curves of myth...He's going for basics-the word, the hand, the self-and for the deep emotion that drives them, and because he will not stop short of a true, pure ring, he finds it. This is a thrilling and immensely affirming book"-Cole Swensen. Featherston is the author of UNITED STATES and several chapbooks including THE CLOCK MAKER'S MEMOIR. He was the editor of the journal ABACUS from 2001 to 2003.

Into the Earth

Featherston, Dan

The world is full of "shlemiels" -- noodles, nitwits, numskulls -- but the biggest "schlemiel" of all was surely Shlemiel himself, who lived in a whole village of "shlemiels," or fools. Here are a few stories about this ninny, this nincompoop, this foolish "shmendrick" & "schlimazel." Author Meguido Zola tells these stories more or less as she recalls hearing them, as a child, from her grandfather the rabbi, the wandering scholar & storyteller . . . who in turn heard them from his grandmother & grandfather . . . who in turn heard them from . . . & so on, & so on, all of it just as it really happened to Shlemiel, long ago & far away, among the Jewish people of medieval Europe.

History & Criticism

The Hawk traces the life and times of Ronnie Hawkins from his early rockabilly career in Arkansas playing alongside Bo Diddley, Conway Twitty, and Roy Orbison through his recording successes with Roulette Records, from his mentoring role with such "Hawks" as Roy Buchanan, The Band, Crowbar, and David Foster through friendships with Bob Dylan, John Lennon, and Kris Kristofferson to his recent return to the spotlight as a "Living Legend," to use the words of fellow Arkansan, President Bill Clinton. As such, The Hawk presents an inside look at the rock'n'roll era from the vantage point of one of its leaders.
