This will shed greater light on the developments in the history of philosophy and better prepare us for the intellectual challenges of our time.

Gregory Cook helps us to navigate the book of Nahum, a poetic masterpiece that teaches us about God's love for his adulterous people. As the prophet Nahum shows us, God's passionate love threatens all our other loves.
