We are encouraged from all sides to view our lives as being full of choices. Like the products on a supermarket shelf, our careers, our relationships, our bodies, our very identities seem to be there for the choosing. But paradoxically this seeming freedom to choose can create extreme anxiety, and feelings of inadequacy and guilt. The Tyranny of Choice explores how late capitalism's shrill exhortations to 'be oneself' can be a tyranny which only leads to ever-greater disquiet and how insistence on choice being a purely individual matter prevents social change. With wisdom, humour and sensitivity, Renata Salecl examines the complexity of the essential human capacity to choose which has become mired in consumerist ironies.

Friendships last a lifetime in It’s About Time, and each begins and ends with stories—stories ranging from the daily struggles of child rearing and marital strife to an unresolved, forbidden love, and the loneliness of widowhood. It’s About Time snapshots the stories of four very different women over three subsequent decades as the lives of Phoebe, Abagail, Hannah, and Tammy interlace through periods of joy and seasons of strife. Beginning in the nineteen-sixties, each member of the Bridge Club narrates her experiences, hopes, fears, and secrets as world events, technology, and the actions of others change their lives. As time passes, they support each other as they raise their families, educate their children, deal with financial crises, explore new generations and romantic relationships, as well as face the difficulties of retirement and the loss of their spouses. The enduring relationships of women are powerfully strong through transition and redemption. But can these friendships weather any storm? Will the Bridge Club survive the stresses of bank fraud, affairs, illness, and aging?

Is religion confusing? Does it make you uncomfortable? The path to the Lord shouldn’t be. Are feelings of emptiness and longing gripping your soul? Are you searching for relief from the torrent of day-to-day pressure and stress? Have you had thoughts or feelings of seeking spiritual healing but are afraid? Well, you’re not alone. Many of us find ourselves in the same situation. The thoughts of journeying into the arena of religion can be frightening. The fear and disgust that we sometimes experience arises from visions of traditions and rituals impressed upon us. God should never take a backseat to the business end of churches. The biggest fear is getting caught up in an empty cause. We fear the possibility of more letdowns, which lead to more hurt. The world around us offers little hope, and we are drawn to the promise of someone who offers just that—hope. That someone is our Lord Jesus. What we face is the constant bombardment from the world that says God is not real. If we do venture to investigate, our natural thoughts are, what’s the catch? But there is no catch. God created a way for us to return to Him through Jesus. The only requirement is to believe. Believe with all your heart, soul, and mind that Jesus is the savior of mankind. Do not allow man-made religions to confuse the issue of connecting to our Lord. It’s simple: open the door to your cold, dead heart and let the healing and the love of Jesus Christ enter in. Your journey with Christ is a never-ending experience, and one where you are never alone.
