Hannah Whitall Smith originally wrote The Christian's Secret of a Happy Life in 1875 as an article for her husband's inspirational magazine. The book subsequently became a worldwide best seller that has influenced generations.

Cultural critic Susie Linfield investigates how eight prominent 20th-century intellectuals struggled with the philosophy of Zionism, and then with Israel and its conflicts with the Arab world. Constructed as a series of interrelated portraits that combine the personal and the political, the book includes philosophers, historians, journalists, and activists such as Hannah Arendt, Arthur Koestler, I. F. Stone, and Noam Chomsky.

While the main focus of the book is on telling the stories, some scene-setting is provided at the beginning, and each chapter also contains a section of commentary to explain what is going on and its significance.

Christianity is rooted in the ancient Near East among people of darker skin.

Grace Ji-Sun Kim explores the historical origins and theological implications of how Jesus became white and God became a white male.

This insightful history explores the stereotype of Dallas Theological Seminary as an anti-intellectual stronghold of fundamentalism and dispensational premillennialism.

More than a century after its first publication, this small treasure by Hannah Whitall Smith continues to serve as an uplifting guide to the true meaning of the Bible's message.
