10 Women Who Changed the World is seminary president Daniel L. Akin’s powerful tribute to the transformational work done by some truly inspiring female Christian missionaries. With each profile, he journeys into the heart of that gospel servant’s mission-minded story and makes a compelling connection to a similar account from the Bible. By reading each missionary story, and how each woman embodies a certain passage of Scripture, prepare to be challenged and inspired to follow in their footsteps—because intentionally living on mission isn’t something reserved for heroes of the past. It’s something each one of us can pursue in everyday life! Women featured in this book: Sarah Hall Boardman Judson (and how she embodies Psalm 138) Eleanor Chesnut (and how she embodies John 13:34–35) Ann Hasseltine Judson (and how she embodies Psalm 142) Harriet Newell (and how she embodies Psalm 116) Darlene Deibler Rose (and how she embodies Psalm 27) Betsey Stockton (and how she embodies 1 Corinthians 7:17–24) Bertha Smith (and how she embodies Galatians 2:20) Charlotte Atlee White Rowe (and how she embodies 1 Corinthians 9:19, 22-23) Yvette Aarons (how she embodies Proverbs 3:5-8) Lilias Trotter (and how she embodies 2 Corinthians 12:7-10)

Many people think science is antagonistic to Christian belief. Science, it is said, shows that the universe is billions of years old, while the Bible says it is only thousands of years old. And some claim that science shows supernatural miracles are impossible. These and other points of contention cause some Christians to view science as a threat to their beliefs. Redeeming Science attempts to kindle our appreciation for science as it ought to be-science that could serve as a path for praising God and serving fellow human beings. Through examining the wonderfully complex and immutable laws of nature, author Vern Poythress explains, we ought to recognize the wisdom, care, and beauty of God. A Christian worldview restores a true response to science, where we praise the God who created nature and cares for it.

Charles Albert Murdock (1841-1928) left Massachusetts for California in 1855 with his mother, sister and brother. For many years he was editor of the Pacific Unitarian Magazine and one of the state's most distinguished printers. A backward glance at eighty (1921) begins with Murdock's memories of his trip west and reunion with his father, who had settled in Arcata on the Humboldt River. Murdock recalls life in the town and recounts stories of his father's early years on the Humboldt, the evolution of the region's Republican Party, acquaintance with Bret Harte, the printing business in San Francisco, 1867-1910, and the San Francisco Board of Education.
