July 1941, Nazis invade Lithuania and soon after begin the mass execution of minorities. Jewish men, women, and children are herded into overcrowded ghettos to await their murder at nearby Ponary Forest. But not all of them are willing to go quietly into that darkness. Unable to match the Nazi war machine on the open battlefield, clandestine resistance groups are formed to wage a covert guerilla war instilling fear in the heart of the fascists, ultimately leading to their destruction. After nearly four years of brutal oppression and murdering of innocent people is over, Jewish partisans like Moshe and Gabik finally exact revenge. Long after their bodies have been laid to rest, tales of their heroism and bravery will resonate through time, immortal. This is their story.Inspired by actual events.

The Nicene Creed's powerful summary of Christian faith has stood the test of time, embodying core truths and distinguishing essential Christian teachings from those of lesser importance. As respected thinker and educator David Willis explores the Nicene Creed in this new book, he provides clues for meaningfully interpreting this most ecumenical of church creeds in the twenty-first century.Writing especially for educated laypeople, advanced students, and theological educators, Willis eloquently links the ancient creed to life today. As he points out, faith is constantly taking different shapes within broad boundaries like the creed's perennial truths, and even these truths need to be reinterpreted in each age to keep them intelligible and compelling. Willis admirably achieves this task for our day by elucidating the creed's statement of faith with analogies drawn from such diverse areas as architecture, graphic art, poetry, sculpture, and psychological theory.Those seeking to delve into the creed or to deepen a lifelong encounter with it will be enriched by Willis's reflections.
