Malcolm and Ida: A Love Story in Letters
Malcolm Kyzer, principal of Cochran High School in Georgia, had no idea the turn his life would take when he hired Ida Reynolds as a teacher, sight unseen. Their budding romance was shaken with an unplanned separation, compliments of a disapproving boss. Malcolm and Ida soon made a moonlit sacred promise to marry before relocating miles apart to look for work. The mail train, as crucial to the country in 1920 as the internet is today, became vital to this young couple as they shared their daily lives, their pasts, and their hopes for the future through frequent handwritten letters. Despite the distance, the modesty of the time, and occasional miscommunication, their love continued to blossom through good times and bad, sickness and health. More than seven hundred century-old letters found tucked away in an attic chronicle the true story of a beautiful and vulnerable 1920s Southern romance in Malcom and Ida.

Jesus and Justice: Organizing for God's Reign on Earth Then and Now
Jesus and Justice presents the life of the historical Jesus as a bold and transformative call to action, inviting readers to actively follow his nonviolent and revolutionary example. Grounded in rigorous historical analysis, the authors show how Jesus organized a grassroots movement of poor and marginalized peasants to confront the Roman Empire's economic, political, and ideological domination-an imperial system with striking parallels to today's corporate-driven global order.The book reveals Jesus' message as a radically anti-imperial vision of God's Reign: a collaborative, egalitarian and justice-centered alternative to systems built on scarcity and oppression. Drawing connections to modern movements led by figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez, Crossan and Okinczyc-Cruz offer a powerful spiritual and theological framework for confronting contemporary injustice. Jesus and Justice challenges readers to embrace Jesus' original revolutionary program of love, mercy and nonviolent action and equips them to respond to God's call for participatory protagonism through committed, organized action for God's Reign on Earth. -
