In this era of unprecedented division and distraction, we've lost the ability to recognize the goodness all around us. But it doesn't have to be that way. From the acclaimed author of THE CRACKER QUEEN comes a cheeky spiritual memoir with an audacious message of hope. In this collection of stories, Hannon shows that joy can arise from the deepest abyss; that everyone is designed with purpose and hardwired for restoration; and that love and peace are entirely warranted and possible. This is because grace abounds where we often miss it: in the grittiness of life.

This biography traces Rev. Julius Caesar Herrin's life from a mill town in North Carolina to the national scene. His life is a microcosm of struggles within the American church to create the Beloved Community. Herrin's work was possible because his liberal theology and support for interracial meetings resulted in his firing in 1954 by North Carolina Baptists, for whom he worked with the Baptist Student Union at UNC Chapel Hill. That firing forced him to move north, where he ministered in an American Baptist church. The Field Foundation, the American Baptist Home Mission Societies, and other American Baptist organizations in 1958 provided funds for Herrin's return south and his entry into the Civil Rights Movement.

For much of the twentieth century, the relationship between science and Christian faith was framed as an either/or choice. In this compelling intellectual biography, readers are invited to reconsider that assumption through the life and thought of neo-evangelical American Baptist theologian Bernard Ramm (1916-1992), one of the most significant yet underappreciated figures in modern evangelical history.
