THE BROKEN LINE What do you really know about your parents? Look, when you get this message, call me, Elaines twin brother tersely instructed. And before Lane could terminate the connection, she snatched up the receiver and greeted her younger brother. It had been a while since they had last spoken, and when he mentioned their parents, she was curious and picked up. Missing? How could that be? Where were her parents? In The Broken Line, Elaine steps into Kash Bennett and Leslie Scotts world of mystery and intrigue while retracing their steps and realizing that much of the existence she enjoyed as a child was a cover for a double life. Not unlike Alice falling through the proverbial rabbit hole where nothing is as it seems, Elaine realizes that her parents disappearance might be far more than a tragic accident and her own life may be more complicated than she ever thought possible; especially when she learns her soon-to-be ex-husband, Jack Phillips is in the family business as well. Combining the journals she finds in her parents attic, Elaine follows the clues from as far back as 1947 China to the present day in trying to locate her folks. She blends new age technology with old world spy techniques to close the gap in finding Kash and Leslie and the mole they had been chasing for nearly six decades.

How can we present the truth about Jesus to a world that rejects all truth claims as arbitrary? Can we find way to engage in meaningful conversation without appearing arrogant or manipulative? Can we witness to the gospel without simply enlisting in the ongoing culture wars? Curtis Chang has found a unique way to address these pressing questions of our age. He argues that similar challenges confronted Christians at two key moments in church history and stimulated creative responses by two monumental thinkers. Augustine (AD 413) faced a fragmenting society where pagans accused Christians of causing the mounting social ills afflicting Rome. Thomas Aquinas (AD 1259) pondered the disorienting Muslim challenge that provoked most medieval Christians to crusade rather than converse. Through a careful study of Augustine's City of God and Aquinas's Summa Contra Gentiles, Chang argues that both followed a brilliant rhetorical strategy for engaging unbelief. Such a captivating strategy is critical in our cultural context where Christian witness seems as difficult as ever. Connecting these ancient writers to the contemporary analysis of thinkers like Alasdair MacIntyre, James Davison Hunter, Lesslie Newbigin, and Stanley Hauerwas, Chang puts forth his own bold recommendations for Christian rhetoric in the twenty-first century. This book will be of vital interest to a wide audience. Scholars will find a fresh reading of these important texts. Pastors and teachers of evangelism and apologetics will discover crucial resources from our Christian past. And all Christians seeking a faithful strategy for communicating the gospel will receive inspiration and hope for today.

The Collapse of the Democratic Presidential Majority makes sense of the last half century of American presidential elections as part of a transition from a world in which realignment was still possible to a dealigned political universe. The book combines analysis of presidential elections in the postwar world with theories of electoral changeshowing how Reagan bridged the eras of re- and dealignment and why Clinton was elected despite the postwar trend. American electoral politics since World War II stubbornly refuse to fit the theories of political scientists. The long collapse of the Democratic presidential majority does not look much like the classic realignments of the past: The Republicans made no corresponding gains in sub-presidential elections and never won the loyalty of a majority of the electorate in terms of party identification. And yet, the period shows a stability of Republican dominance quite at odds with the volatility and unpredictability central to the competing theory of dealignment.
