Have you ever tried watching a movie on your iPod Touch or iPhone only to realize it's not that fun to hold your device for hours at a time? Did you then try to prop it up against stacks of books or magazines with limited success? So did we. That's why MovieWedge was invented. Hope you find it as useful as we do. The versatile stand works with a wide variety of portable media devices; such as Apple's iPod touch, and iPod nano, the Sony PSP and Microsoft's Zune, mobile phones such as the Apple iPhone, Samsung Instinct, Blackberry Storm, and basically any other device you can fit snugly in there! |

Fashionable and functional, the innovative SIGG Active Bottle Top provides higher performance than most standard sports caps. A transparent, dirt-proof lid flips easily off of the top of the leak-proof cap and a gentle twist on the cap unlocks a patented mouthpiece mechanism while ensuring that the bottle is still 100% sealed. As you drink from the Active Bottle Top cap, simply tip the bottle and gently press your mouth against the cap creating an opening that allows a stronger and easier flow rate than comparable mouthpieces. As soon as you finish drinking and turn the bottle upright, the leak-proof seal settles back into its job of fully securing the contents of your water bottle. |

Discipleship As Political Responsibility
John Howard Yoder (1927-1997), the most influential Anabaptist voice in theology and ethics prior to his death, continues to have impact.
In his preface to Discipleship as Political Responsibility, Stanley Hauerwas describes Yoder as forcing us to think differently by retraining the way we speak and write. If Hauerwas is right about this, (and I think he is), this book will force us to think differently about what it means for Christians to take up political responsibility. The two essays included here, The state in the New Testament, and Following Christ as a Form of Political Responsibility, show Yoder working out the material that later became part of his Christian Witness to the State and The Politics of Jesus. --Mennonite Brethren Herald |

The Powers That Be: Theology for a New Millennium
In our fast-paced secular world, God and theology are second-class citizens. Money, politics, sports, and science seem better suited to the hard realities of our world. As the church steeple has been eclipsed by the skyscraper as the centerpiece of the urban landscape, so has the divine realm been set aside in favor of more immediate human experience. One sad consequence of this shift is the loss of spiritual and theological bearings, most clearly evident in our inability to understand or speak about such things. If the old way of viewing the universe no longer works, something else has to replace it.
The Powers That Be reclaims the divine realm as central to human existence by offering new ways of understanding our world in theological terms. Walter Wink reformulates ancient concepts, such as God and the devil, heaven and hell, angels and demons, principalities and powers, in light of our modern experience. He helps us see heaven and hell, sin and salvation, and the powers that shape our lives as tangible parts of our day-to-day experience, rather than as mysterious phantoms. Based on his reading of the Bible and analysis of the world around him, Wink creates a whole new language for talking about and to God. Equipped with this fresh world view, we can embark on a new relationship with God and our world into the next millennium. |
