Composer Wang Lu's debut full length recording opens with a sonic portrait of a late afternoon in the life of a Chinese city park, with pre-recorded sounds of conversations layered on top of ephemeral gestures in a mixed instrumentation ensemble. It is the perfect opening of a recording featuring the music by an artist whose ears and mind are always open and always observing with fascination the interface between life and music. Wang Lu is wonderfully adept at painting a scene through sound, using several small gestures that heard together add up to a unique world unto themselves. The ensemble writing that follows throughout the album is often virtuosic and also often tongue in cheek, displaying a dry humor that is refreshing. Throughout the album we hear more interspersed "found sounds" from the Chinese urban environment, creating an expressive world that is both quotidian but also indicative of endearment and a touch of nostalgia. Wang Lu's music is dynamic, colorful, and expressive, drawing from influences that reflect her background without being defined by them. Hers is an important compositional voice for the current generation of contemporary music artists who are shaping the scene, and we should expect to hear much more beguiling music from her in the upcoming years.

Healing Christian Trauma
Format: Kindle
If you've been hurt by the Church, this is a good read. Chapter 17 is a must read. It is a very quotable book, too.

Academic in nature, but informative for the average reader.
Format: Kindle
Granted this is an academic textbook, but there is much in this work for the average Christian who just wants to dig deeper into the Old Testament.
Each chapter represents a different book in the Old Testament, and is was written by a scholar who has special research knowledge on that particular book. Chapters are not as long and drawn out as many academic Old Testament survey works can be. They are semi-concise, and filled with lots of information on each book of the Old Testament.
Written from a conservative standpoint, the book takes a high view scripture and confirms the veracity of Scripture and verbal plenary inspiration.
If I had to lodge one complaint against the text, I would criticize it for a lack of illustrations, charts, graphs, maps, and pictures and such. It's New Testament counterpart is filled with such, but this volume is lacking in that area, for some strange reason. I guess the publisher must've been on a limited budget when developing this volume. LOL.
If you are getting ready to take an Old Testament survey class and this is your text, you've got something to get excited about.
Blessings in Christ,

Good Text Book
Format: Hardcover
This is a great book when looking for an introduction to the OT. It is fairly easy to read, and each chapter ends with questions which encourage the reader to retain what was just read. This book seemed at least to this reader, to take fairly complex subjects and make them understandable and very readable.
