Описание: Between the folds of this book, we have illustrated a fairytale adventure. Our heroes are lime plaster statues from Ain Ghazal. These Gazelles came from ancient origins to visit their hometown, Jordan, meandering their way from the north to the south. Starting in the ruins of Umm Qais where the honey is as sweet as the flowers, they make their way from Irbid, the bride of the north, to Mafraq city. Here, they meet the desert pearl, Umm Al Jimal. The magical sounds of bagpipes entice the Gazelles to move from the Ayyubid Rabad Castle in beautiful Ajloun, to the vast and fertile land of Jerash. The Gazelles reunite with loved ones

Описание:
Raya Tuffaha's To All The Yellow Flowers is a deeply personal reflection of self through poetry. Dealing with topics of sexuality, culture, and love, Tuffaha's poetry speaks truthfully to her experience with these issues as a queer young Muslim woman. Often, she compares her culture's expectations for her life to her own, highlighting the places where the two intersect, and acknowledging the flash points. Many of her poems are formatted to reflect the speed and pace of a speaking voice, which magnifies the experience of Tuffaha's written word. Some twenty pen and ink drawings by Timothy St. Pierre further enhance the experience.
In her poem, "Lot's Wife," for example, Tuffaha assumes the woman's perspective on the famed biblical story about what happened in Sodom and Gomorrah: "She falls for men so they won't hurt her /takes care of others before they take it from her." Tuffaha often flips common narratives on their heads and forces readers to look at situations from different points of view. Culture is a key feature in "When Exotic Becomes Side Dish," as the food and customs of the author's culture are juxtaposed with an outsider's view. The lines, "Jasmine nights /and za'atar mornings catch/ in between my teeth /dirty fangs bared ready /for the carnage" showcase the narrator's willingness to defend parts of her traditional Muslim culture while questioning others.
Raya Tuffaha takes readers through the trials of her life and ends the journey on a hopeful note. Family is the focus of her final poem, "After Javon Johnson: When the Cancer Comes," in which she remembers her Palestinian family before concluding: "When family trees bear olives, /rupture the sunbeams and entwine /home in their fists/ we march, we march." Raya Tuffaha's To All The Yellow Flowers is a celebration of the hard times which can lead to good, and the beauty and chaos to be found in the intersection of the cultures that comprise a person's life.

Описание:
Dr. Abedawn Khalaf's life story is a remarkable tale of adventure, danger, love and achievement.
It starts with the struggles of his early life in Iraq and subsequent journey to Scotland to study at Dundee University, where he met his wife Carol. Financial hardship meant they had to go to Iraq with their two children.
Violence put all their lives at risk and Carol decided she could take it no more and returned to her homeland with the children. Dr. Khalaf had to escape the regime of Sadaam Hussein, by journeying through some of the most dangerous terrain in the world.
His work in Scotland as an academic is ground-breaking and may have an incredible impact on medicine in the future.
This is a truly epic tale of an amazing man, his incredible wife and their family.

Описание:
Same-sex marriage may be legal in America, but it's still far from the accepted norm, especially in Christian circles. So where can LBGTQ Christians who desire a lifelong, covenantal relationship look for dating and marriage advice when Christian relationship guides have not only simply ignored but actively excluded same-sex couples?
David and Constantino Khalaf struggled to find relational role models and guidance throughout dating, their engagement, and the early months of their marriage. To fill this void, they began writing Modern Kinship, a blog exploring the unique challenges queer couples face on the road from singleness to marital bliss. Part personal reflection, part commentary, and full of practical advice, Modern Kinship explores the biblical concept of kinship from a twenty-first-century perspective. This important resource tackles subjects such as dating outside of smartphone apps, overcoming church and family issues, meeting your partner's parents, deciding when and how to have children, and finding your mission as a couple. Modern Kinship encourages queer Christian couples to build God-centered partnerships of trust and mutuality.
