- Toxic empathy : how progressives exploit Christian compassion / by Stuckey, Allie Beth,author.(CARDINAL)837412(CARDINAL)837412;
Includes bibliographical references (pages [173]-188)."We are told that empathy is the highest virtue-the key to being a good person. Is that true? Or has "empathy," like so many other words of our day- "tolerance," "justice," "acceptance"-been hijacked by bad actors who exploit compassion for their own political ends? In Toxic Empathy, Allie Beth Stuckey argues that empathy has become a tool of manipulation by left-wing activists who bully people into believing that they must adopt progressive positions to be loving. She explores the five most heated issues through which toxic empathy is deployed: abortion, gender, sexuality, immigration, and social justice. Progressives use catchy mantras to present their perspective as empathetic, like "abortion is healthcare," "love is love," or "no human being is illegal," but in each case, they ignore the other side of the moral equation. For example, abortion is presented as compassionate for the woman, but what about the human life the procedure kills? This book isn't about killing empathy; it's about submitting our empathy to God's definitions of love, goodness, and justice. Stuckey exposes the logical pitfalls and moral consequences of toxic empathy, equipping Christians with research-backed, Biblical truths to dismantle the progressive lies that have permeated our culture- and our church."--

- Epic saints : wild, wonderful, and weird stories of god's heroes / by McAfee, Shaun A.,author.;
Discover the Epic Humanity of the Saints. The saints are not myths or legends, they were people just like us who lived lives of epic virtue. If the saints have never made you laugh or drop your jaw, they will in this book. Bestselling author Shaun McAfee (Reform Yourself!, Filling Our Father's House) and guest writers illustrate how the saints were not just stone-faced old men. Some of them had quirky habits, outrageous personalities, and did breathtaking deeds...but they all had epic faith. Their lives were filled with events that push our understanding of charity with intrepid virtue, but at certain points, they lacked common sense and were uproariously funny, too. Discover the time: * A young man known for his spiritual perfection almost blew himself to bits with a cannon. * The saint of the Cristero War became a master of disguises to save Christians and hilariously taunt his persecutors. * Twin saints conjured dragons and tempests just to preserve vocations of novices. * The founder of the Oratorians joked about his own death, just moments before he died. * A famous cardinal rejected guaranteed conclave votes to make him pope. * A magnificent preacher was-- understandably--accused of being insane. You'll be filled with faith and laughter as you discover that God truly sends the lowly to do his will on earth, but that over time and with God's graces, the lowly are lifted the highest--even if they are a little wild, weird, and epically wonderful.

- The Matheny Manifesto : a young manager's old school views on success in sports and life / by Matheny, Mike,1970-(CARDINAL)410166; Jenkins, Jerry B.(CARDINAL)307829;

A better way -- Our grand experiment -- Parents just trying to get it right -- What a great coach looks like -- Part 3.

He enjoyed immediate success as a manager, leading the Cards to the postseason three times in his first three years. But he is perhaps as well known for his tough-love philosophy, famously expressed in a frankly worded letter he wrote to the parents of a Little League team he coached. That letter contained his throwback beliefs that authority should be respected, discipline and hard work rewarded, spiritual faith cultivated, family made a priority, and humility considered a virtue. In The Matheny Manifesto, he builds on his original letter by first diagnosing the problem at the heart of youth sports and then offering a hopeful path forward.
