Anyone who reads the Bible from cover to cover quickly realizes that a radical shift occurs between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Many things are different. One of the major differences has to do with the concept of law. It is clear that the Law given to Israel does not simply spill over into the Christian life. And yet, there are connections and overlaps between them. How do we make sense of this? This question has received many attempted answers, but too often they have been driven more by theological assumptions than clear biblical teaching. Rethinking the Law is a refreshing exception. It looks at what God Himself says about Law and laws in the Old Testament and the New Testament. It keeps things in their historical contexts and shows how Jesus changes everything about the role of law in our lives. You will find yourself deeply motivated to serve Jesus out of love rather than guilt.

In this one-of-a-kind collection of monologue plays, Eric Lane and Nina Shengold have gathered a breathtaking array of human voices and stories by master playwrights and emerging new writers. Each of the plays, ranging from one-acts and ten-minute plays to full-length works, creates a rich and specific world. In these pages, readers will meet a dazzling group of dramatic and comic characters: an actress chasing a role as a prison guard on a soap opera, an Indian waiter new to America, a lesbian performance artist taking her father to Auschwitz, a surfer dude trying to summarize the plot of Moby-Dick in under two minutes, and a Dutch librarian hunting down a book that's 123 years overdue. Because each selection is a complete monologue, Talk to Me is an unprecedented source for actors in search of material for auditions, classes, and performances, as well as a literary gold mine for anyone who loves drama.
