Описание: Thousands of people around the world are maimed and killed by landmines and unexploded ammunition every year. International law classifies landmines as 'evil in themselves', but minefields are expressions of 'political minefields' that create them and allow them to persist. In this travelogue through Iraq, Laos, Cambodia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Sudan, South Sudan and New York City, we follow Matthew Bolton's quest for solutions to the landmine crisis and emerging autonomous weapons. Throughout his journey we meet deminers, paramilitaries, journalists, mercenaries, diplomats, aid workers, and campaigners working in and around the minefields. It is a must-read for those working to alleviate the devastation of war.

We live in the age of information, as some say, and, perhaps that is true. The problem with much of this "information" is that it is framed in the terms of suffocating ideologies. The larger conclusions have already been drawn by others on all sorts of things like climate change, life origins, justice ideas, education, democracy, and many others so that one is inevitably led to the desired conclusions even if they fly in the face of everything you have learned about yourself and the world you want to live in.
My purpose in writing this collection of essays was not so much to convert people to a particular way of thinking, but to motivate the reader to embark upon his own quest to become a clear-eyed seeker of wisdom and truth. This process produces quiet contemplation and study rather than anger and controversy.
Something is true about everything. Discovering what that is will change your life and open up opportunities that you never knew existed.

Описание: In the New Testament the verb "to walk" (peripateo) finds its use on ninety-five occasions. It is of interest that the Apostle Paul uses the verb on thirty occasions in his prolific writings. Hence, why I have chosen the title of this work as A Walk with Paul Through Cultural Minefields. In many respects, the cultural minefields of the ancient cities of Corinth, Ephesus, and Colossae are no different to the cultural minefields facing the modern church. The church of the twenty-first century is now faced with challenges to God's absolutes in conjunction with opposition from other faith systems. Hence, it prevails upon every person who professes to have a Christian faith to understand those challenges. The Apostle Paul's letters to the Corinthians, Ephesians, and Colossians, if studied carefully, will assist Christians to walk out their faith in the manner that will bring honor to God.
