As we stand at the brink of a terminal decline in the world's languages, and
the rise of the hegemonic 'super-tongue', this is a personal and engaging
account of how we can stop the race towards the extinction of linguistic
diversity.
Published to coincide with the launch of NASA's Perseverance rover mission

Planet.--Publisher.
In this volume of the For Today series, author and pastor James Howell takes us on an engaging exploration of the Beatitudes. Howell considers each of the well-known phrases in these passages from Matthew and creatively applies Jesus' teachings to our contemporary world and Christian lives. The For Today series was designed to provide reliable and accessible resources for the study and real life application of important biblical texts, theological documents, and Christian practices. The emphasis of the series is not only on the realization and appreciation of what these subjects have meant in the past, but also on their value in the present--"for today." Thought-provoking questions are included at the end of each chapter, making the books ideal for personal study and group use.
