Early Christian Families in Context: An Interdisciplinary DialogueTypical studies of marriage and family in the early Christian period focus on very limited evidence found in Scripture.

Typical studies of marriage and family in the early Christian period focus on very limited evidence found in Scripture. This interdisciplinary book offers a broader, richer picture of the first Christian families by drawing together research by experts ranging from archaeologists to ancient historians.By exploring the nature of households in the ancient Greco-Roman world, the contributors assemble a new understanding of ancient Christian families that is both compelling and instructive. Divided into six parts, the book covers key aspects of ancient family life, from meals and child-rearing to women's roles and the lives of slaves. Three concluding chapters explore the implications of all this information for theological education today.Contributors: David L. BalchSuzanne DixonJ. Albert HarrillRoss S.

That even with some small problems it was a very good comic
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The product overall was really good and I enjoyed the comic very much the only problem was there was smears on the text ink throughout the comic.

If you like Dick Grayson, you must read this.
Format: Kindle
The title says it all. Mandatory reading for any Dick fan. And the art by Nguyen is mesmerizingly atmospheric. Really unique feel and brilliant sensitive writing by Lemire. Really great tease with Killer Croc as well. All around fantastic.

Why the revisionism?
Format: Paperback
I kinda want to give this a try but I dislike that the artist chose to change Robin's costume. What is this? Dick Grayson Robin always wore the same costume, so why is a "throwback" story using new uniforms? (Batman's is also not quite the original.) I guess modern readers just think the classic togs are "silly," but that's on them. Respect the material, comics creators! Or leave it alone.

Simply magnificent
Format: Kindle
A new perspective on an old and familiar story. The art is outstanding. The story is compelling. It needs to be a regular ongoing series. DC...please handle this. Thanks.
