United in Grace, Beyond DebateConversations about abortion often center on the question: Are you pro-life or pro-choice? But what if thats the wrong question? Drawing upon the life and teachings of Jesus, Becoming ProGrace invites Christians to ask new questions, such as: What if conversations about abortion didnt have to feel so tense, divided, or dehumanizing? What does it mean to affirm the image of God in every person involved? How do we navigate tension we may feel when our deepest Christian values seem to conflict? What would it take for Christian communities to become spaces of empathy, listening, and grace? Including insights and personal stories from Christians of diverse denominational backgrounds and political perspectives, Becoming ProGrace articulates a uniquely Christian response to abortion that calls us to take on the character of Christ rather than trying to change others, offering a much-needed message of hope for our divided world.Jesus led with grace. As we reimagine our approach to the abortion conversation, so can we.

Whilst the war raged across Flanders fields, an equally horrifying and sometimes more dangerous battle took place underground.Beneath Flanders Fields tells the story of the tunnellers war, which still remains one of the most misunderstood, misrepresented and mystifying conflicts of the Great War.A wealth of personal testimonies reveal the engineering, technology and science behind how this most intense of battles was fought and won. They speak of how the tunnellers lived a relentless existence in the depths of the battlefield for almost two and a half years, enduring physical and mental stresses that were often more extreme than their infantry counterparts. Their lives were reduced to a complex war of silence, tension and claustrophobia, leading up to the most dramatic mine offensive in history launched on 7 June 1917 at Messines Ridge. Yet, Messines was not the end of their story, which continued with the crafting of a whole underground world of headquarters, cookhouses and hospitals, housing the innumerable troops who passed through this part of the Western Front.Here, this extraordinary, hidden world is revealed and the fragile legacy it has left behind on Flanders fields is brought to light.

Wie bewahrt man seine Selbstachtung in einer historischen Epoche, in der die Menschheit ihre Wurde verliert?Wir brauchen ein neues Leitbild fur die planetare Krise. Das alte, durch Gier, Neid und Dominanzstreben angetriebene Modell des kontinuierlichen Wirtschaftswachstums fuhrt uns in eine globale Katastrophe. Der offensichtlichste Grund (von vielen) ist die enge Korrelation zwischen Wachstum und Kohlendioxidemissionen.Wir mussen uns ehrlich machen!Realistisch betrachtet sind unsere Moglichkeiten bereits jetzt auf Schadensbegrenzung und intelligentes Krisenmanagement beschrankt. Intellektuelle Redlichkeit, Mitgefuhl und eine bestimmte Form von innerer Bewusstheit sind das, was wir fur mentale und politische Resilienz dringend brauchen. Der Begriff einer Bewusstseinskultur bildet den Ausgangspunkt fur eine neue Debatte. Fur mehr Mitgefuhl und radikale SelbstachtungMehr als dreiig Jahre lang haben wir sehenden Auges versagt. Neben unserem Mangel an Selbstachtung und dem fehlenden Mitgefuhl fur kunftige Generationen war eine der Hauptursachen fur die sich anbahnende planetare Krise ein Mangel an kultureller Kreativitat: Wir waren nicht in der Lage, die alten Werte hinter uns zu lassen und alternative Leitbilder zu schaffen.Genau das ist aber dringend erforderlich, um einen neuen kulturellen Kontext fur den Ausstieg aus dem Wachstumsmodell zu schaffen. Wir brauchen eine Bewusstseinskultur, die sowohl auf individueller als auch auf gesellschaftlicher Ebene funktioniert. Wege dahin zeigt dieses Buch.Wir brauchen eine radikale neue BewusstseinskulturViele von uns haben wenig Mitgefuhl und keine Achtung vor den Personen und leidensfahigen Wesen, die nach uns auf diesem Planeten leben werden. Das fuhrt dazu, dass wir bald auch uns selbst nicht mehr als rationale Personen ernst nehmen konnen, weil wir uber Jahrzehnte vorsatzlich empirische Tatsachen ignoriert und auf politischer Ebene unsere eigene Selbsttauschung organisiert haben. Die Klimakatastrophe wird deshalb auch dazu fuhren, dass wir uns zunehmend als scheiternde Spezies erleben und auf eine historisch neue Weise unter dem Verlust unserer Wurde leiden. Wir brauchen eine radikale neue Bewusstseinskultur. Thomas Metzinger
