Women
Jesus Loves Women is the memoir of a girl raised in a fundamentalist Christian milieu she casts off at a young age and of her quest to find wholeness and home, spiritually and sexually.

Writing honestly about first love, marriage, divorce, sexuality, and the struggle to find home within herself, Tricia Gates Brown tells a story that is at once personal and universal. Her memoir is the story of a woman coming to understand divine love-for herself, for women, and for everyone who has stumbled his or her way into awareness and grace.

"Gandhi believed in revealing himself. He regarded secrecy as the enemy of freedom-no only the freedom of India but the freedom of man. He exposed even the innermost personal thoughts which individuals usually regard as private. In nearly a half-century of prolific writing, speaking, and subjecting his ideas to the test of actions, he painted a detailed self-portrait of his mind, heart, and soul." -Louis Fishcer

There he served the Waterloo-Kitchener United Mennonite Church as pastor until his death in 1950.

This book is a collection of nearly 75 stories and sermonettes drawn from Brunk's forty years in the ministry. The stories reflect Brunk's desire to help churches become open and welcoming, instead of exclusive and shunning. The story of Cap'n Jack, the oysterman living "outside the walls" of the Mennonite colony and welcomed into Brunk's home church at Warwick River Mennonite Church, provides a memorable illustration of this.

On November 26, 2005, Christian Peacemaker Teams (SPT) members Tom Fox and Jim Loney along with delegation members Norman Kember and Harmeet Sooden were kidnapped in Iraq. Tom Fox was killed on March 9, 2006. Jim, Norman and Harmeet were freed two weeks after 118 days of captivity. The kidnapping of these four men was like a rock thrown into a pond. This Cascadia edition of a book copublished with CPT describes the ripples on the water, the impact and results of that rock, in stories characterized by hope, courage, friendship, and forgiveness. 118 Days bears witness to vital peacemaking being done around the world in these times.

The Cascadia edition is identical to the self-published CPT edition except for a few minor changes to accommodate the shift of publishers--such as revised title and copyright pages and updates to the section "Why we Self-Published."

Theology
Christendom or believers church? Here a twentieth-century Anabaptist ponders this and other key questions while telling his 90- year life story. As he records, Peachey was shaped in the free church tradition and by encountering a traumatized post-World War II Europe. From that vantage point, he and Mennonite colleagues saw strengths in their heritage and developed concerns that their denomination's focus on professionalization and institution building risked hiding the Anabaptist light under a bushel. This led to the "Concern" movement, whose themes still resonate in Peachey's quest to discern whether his is "a usable past" able to offer fruitful perspectives on contemporary trends.

Bible Study
Devotional
Neither commentary nor traditional meditations, Eby's Markings are a spiritual memoir. His musings on 70 episodes or texts in the Gospel of Mark blend intellectual inquiry with confessional worship. They meld poignancy, whimsy, grit, doubt, sorrow, and inspiration. Anyone attending to the care of her or his soul will find nurture here.

Eby's project from the practice of old spiritual disciplines: Bible Study, meditation, prayer, contemplation, silence, writing. Using the Gospel of Mark for his own Markings, Eby explored the Gospel through the grid of his forty years teaching literature at the college level, reading and writing, listening to music, walking in the orchard and woods, living in Africa, heeding one wise woman, rearing children, stumbling towards God. Then, under the influence of a given text and personal memory, he sat down and wrote, yielding these personal musings on a spare but elegant Gospel.
