' Yet, in the following 200 years, the Supreme Court has defined certain categories of expression-the obscene, the defamatory, commercial, and fighting words or disruptive expression-as constitutionally unprotected. Noted legal scholar David O'Brien provides a history of each category of unprotected speech and puts into bold relief the larger questions of what kinds of expression should (and should not) receive First Amendment protection.

This book is a call back to original Christianity. There is reason for discontentment with church as we've known it.

The Church Jesus brought forth in the first century, despite its trials and temptations, was united, loving, faithful, and powerful. It ruled spiritually. It "turned the whole world upside down" through evangelism (Acts 17:6). It produced faithful Believers and loving martyrs. What happened to it? Can it emerge again? YES The New Covenant leadership Jesus initiated The dignity...
