      Has God Failed You?
    • 2021

      DO YOU FIND IT DIFFICULT TO RECONCILE THAT THE SAME loving Father who sent his only son to die on the cross for our sins also describes himself as a “great lion” to Judah who will tear them to pieces? What about the time he let Satan take Job's children and all of his earthly possessions, but yet the apostle John calls God “Love”? Most people would agree that the God that is described in the New Testament is more palpable than a God who permissively brings judgment on others, the God often described in the Old Testament. In this quick read, Dr. Michael Brown takes a detailed look at the infamous story of Job to let God himself answer the question, “How can a God who allows sickness and disease and describes Himself as 'the one who causes disaster' be the same God who loves us?”

      "Michael Brown investigates the ever-fluctuating relationship between American intellectuals and national politics from the Eisenhower era to Obama's-a story of both persistence and evolution. In Brown's words: "intellectuals have been both whipping boys and wonder workers in American politics, targets of hatred and vessels of hope." Brown tracks political debates over intellectuals across the culture, encompassing an array of thinkers and contexts, from Adlai Stevenson to bell hooks. In crystal-clear and unburdened prose, Brown carries us through six key moments that reveal the larger trends and tensions that defined concerns over intellectuals, their formidable abilities, and their myriad shortcomings"--

      "This book will serve its purpose not for when times are good. But for when times are bad, when one is on that dark road and it feels like no one is there. It will serve as the proverbial jump pack to the battery of the mind. Like the hug that you needed but did not get. Like the words you needed to hear but did not hear. This book of reality-based daily affirmations is the "I wish I had this" of books."--

      Michael Christopher Brown: Yo Soy Fidel

      • 160 pages

      Yo Soy Fidel follows the cortège of Fidel Castro, former Cuban revolutionary and politician, over a period of several days in late 2016. American photographer Michael Christopher Brown (born 1978) leaned out of a rear passenger window of his passing vehicle in order to photograph Cubans waiting alongside the highway for Fidel's military convoy, carrying his cremated remains from Havana to Santiago, to pass. The route mirrored Fidel's post-revolution journey from Santiago to Havana in 1959, which helped solidify his image as hero and legend. In Yo Soy Fidel, fragments of this initial image have survived his death though perhaps inevitably lead to a question of what is to come. A country largely seen for half a century as a symbol of dignity and hope in the fight against imperialism, Cuba has a choice: to stay true to Fidel's revolutionary path or embrace globalization and all it entails.
