“Carl Trueman explains modernity to the church, with depth, clarity, and force. The significance of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self . . . is hard to overstate.” Rod Dreher, from the Foreword

Modern culture is obsessed with identity. Since the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends—yet no historical phenomenon is its own cause. From Augustine to Marx, various views and perspectives have contributed to the modern understanding of the self.

In this timely book, Carl Trueman analyzes the development of the sexual revolution as a symptom—rather than the cause—of the human search for identity. Trueman surveys the past, brings clarity to the present, and gives guidance for the future as Christians navigate the culture in humanity’s ever-changing quest for identity.

A summer cooling mat full of endless possibilities! Kitty 🐈‍⬛ imagination highly required! It’s apparently somewhat better than a large empty Amazon box! Beau highly recommends it! ****Review annotated by Beau’s mom Beau’s mom actual review: I purchased the medium sized cooling mat for my chunkster grey tux Beau who at first snoop, didn’t like it. After carefully flopping him on top of it and made stupid sounds, he inevitably decided to actually try it his way thus (while not a box) liked it. I was surprised that after two weeks the mat was still cool and scratch-free from his murder mittens. While he does flop on the mat from time to time, he enjoys dragging it, flipping it in a viscous cycle of who-knows what the heck is going on his mind! Either way, if I could give it 9/10 stars I would as the instructions fails to inform user of a highly kitty imagination is required. No worries tho! Beau figured this out two days into flopping on top of it.

Does not stay cool
I bought this for my bunny and the material itself does feel cool at first. My bunny wast laying on it for about 30- 40 minutes and it feels warm to the touch. So while it does feel cool initially, if your pet is warm the pad will get warm as well. I'd recommend leaving the fan on for your pet in addition to the pad or placing a frozen water bottle on the pad so it keeps the pad cool a little longer.

My cat loves this. It really does keep her cool. I even washed it in the washing machine and put it outside to dry - still cool to the touch.

Best cooling purchase for my indoor cat
Color: Green Leaf, Size: Small (20'' X 16'' X 0.3''), Number of Items: 1
I have a Maine coon and he runs very hot. I don’t have much tile in my house so I bought him this, and added it to his bed. He hasn’t left his bed since I put it in there a few hours ago. He would never be in his bed longer than 20 minutes, let alone lay in it all the way. Such a successful buy for what we needed.
