Introducing an exciting new series from Wyatt North Publishing: Christian Writing Decoded.
Christian Writing Decoded provides the reader with a detailed history and analysis of the most important Christian writings.
The Didache was rediscovered in the Monastery of the Holy Sepulcher in Constantinople (Istanbul, Turkey) in 1873 by the Metropolitan Philotheos Byrennios, who would later become the Greek Orthodox Archbishop of Nicomedia (Izmit, Turkey).
This manuscript is the sole extant copy of the complete work in Greek and was written in 1056 by a scribe named Leon.
The Didache's guarded but judicious approach to itinerant figures may be a reminder for us to be tolerant of outsiders who seek Jesus in truth, even if their ways are different from ours as long as they do not teach us to alter our own practices.
This book provides an original history and analysis of The Didache coupled with an appendix that includes the Christian writing.
You can purchase other religious works directly from Wyatt North Publishing.
Enjoy.

That well-known time of the year known as “the holidays” begins in late October (if you wish to count Halloween) and ends around January 2 (if you celebrate New Year’s Day). It isn’t a term you will see on a wall calendar with a big “Holidays Begin” in bold letters, and it means something slightly different for everyone, but we all know what it means to us. For some it means strictly religious observance or celebration. Others think of it as time spent with family and friends. Still more people view it as a time of year to think of those in need, and soup kitchens and blood drives get an annual boost from all the giving.
Regardless of exactly what the holidays mean to you, they probably mean spending. Whether you spend on traditional meals or on gifts for everyone or on outfits for a variety of functions that require your attendance, there can be ignoring the fact that starting in early November, we start to feel anxious about our wallets.
These two things – the traditions that bring warmth into our lives and the holiday spending – don’t have to cancel each other out. It is easy to forget the good feelings that go along with sharing time with family when we are worried about making ends meet. That is why we need to think about doing the holidays on a budget. If we can control our spending amidst all of the lights and gift wrap and cookies, then we can more thoroughly enjoy the entire experience of the holidays.
Rather than a specific plan laid out for budgeting, this book encourages you to find a budget (with a few tips about how) and cut back on what you usually spend in the fall and winter. It demonstrates a variety of ways to do this: by finding inexpensive solutions, by rethinking how we approach the holidays, and by reevaluating what real giving is. You might find you don’t connect with all of the ideas here, but some are sure to appeal to you. Even if you only shake off some of the anxiety the holidays bring, you will find a more peaceful holiday season. No Bah Humbug about it.

Enter the post-pomo meta-character Huckleberry Milton as he leaves the safety of his Twitter account and cramped office cubicle and goes off on a cross-country mindquest to bring this country together, melding the forgotten pop culture of decades past with the goings-on of now, reviving the counter-culture of the Sixties, and doing it with an amalgam of DIY technology: '80s IBM PC software, 21st century future-tech, and plenty of hardcore psychedelia.
Can a robotic Jerry Garcia revive the Grateful Dead, playing ad-hoc (and continuous) concerts at local shopping malls, schoolyards and Subway restaurants, jump-starting a sinking economy and leading the way to a new, highly profitable American Dream?
Huck Milton -- himself a product of Burroughsian cutup technique, AI experiments, gratuitous Notepad cut-and-paste operations, and something much deeper -- shows the darkness, the fiery colors, the depth and originality of the idiot-savant mind of Bradley J. Milton.
A failed concert at Altamont over 40 years ago where the Hell's Angels rough up the crowd quickly fades into Ed Wood graveyard backdrops, classic Hammer film horror scenes, Platonic dialogues between Laverne and Shirley -- shots ring out in the cold air on the campus of Kent State, just beyond some grassy knoll -- meanwhile back at the office, the new DOS 3.1 diskettes have arrived, and someone is dialing out on a modem with PROCOMM ... a mysterious figure is attempting to be the next Jim Morrison, preaching to the dot-commer kids at Height-Ashbury ... meanwhile on Twitter, delayed Morse code messages arrive from a capsized Love Boat (circa 1978), and tens of thousands of followers and members of the new 'Generation SHOP' are urging Yoko Ono to lead the new economic revolution.
Fans of Hunter S. Thompson's drug-addled gonzo psychedelia, William S. Burroughs' tripped-out routines, William T. Vollman's deep weirdness, and anyone who appreciates the rare, odd humor of a mind that can blend five decades of pop culture into a musical lyric lullaby is going to love what this "business executive" (and former Deadhead) has conjured up: an American joyride that rockets through time, space, and several uncharted dimensions, bringing us to a crystalline happy Somewhere that we never thought we had access to.

Middle school is supposed to bite. Middle schoolers aren't.
Alex simply wanted to do a favor for a friend while taking a much-needed reprieve from her far-from-average life and returning temporarily to her teaching position. Torie was just trying to trudge through another day of middle school surrounded by naïve peers who had no idea what she was to become. Neither teacher nor student expected to glance across a classroom of normal human teenagers and into the face of their enemy. Neither Seer nor Knower could have understood how their gifts would leave them second-guessing everything they'd been taught to believe about the other side.
