Not the Way It's Supposed to Be: A Breviary of SinThis timely book retrieves an old awareness that has slipped and changed in recent decades. The awareness of sin used to be our shadow.

This timely book retrieves an old awareness that has slipped and changed in recent decades. The awareness of sin used to be our shadow. Christians hated sin, feared it, fled from it--and grieved over it. But the shadow of sin has now dimmed in our consciousness. Even preachers, who once got visibly angry over a congregation's sin, now speak of sin in a mumble. Cornelius Plantinga pulls the ancient doctrine of sin out of mothballs and presents it to contemporary readers in clear language, drawing from a wide range of books, films, and other cultural resources. In smoothly flowing prose Plantinga describes how sin corrupts what is good and how such corruption spreads. He discusses the parasitic quality of sin and the ironies and pretenses generated by this quality. He examines the relation of sin to folly and addiction. He describes two classic postures or movements of sin -- attack and flight. And in an epilogue he reminds us that whatever we say about sin also sharpens our eye for the beauty of grace.Binding Type: Paperback

Versatile and decent size
Color: Black, Color: Black
I love little trays for random things. I saw this and had to get it. I ordered the black one. It came nicely packaged in a box that protected it from any damage during transport. It is approximately 8” x 8” x 1.6.” It is made of faux leather and MDF. It is supposedly water-resistant, but I have tested that. The interest in smooth, while the exterior walls have vertical ridges. The bottom is smooth. It’s heavy enough so it doesn’t side around. I have used it for numerous things: jewelry, pens and notepads, keys and sunglasses, perfume, medications, change, remotes, and change. It’s a handy and modern piece that could suit most people.

Small Valet Tray Nightstand Organizer (Black)
Color: Black, Color: Black
I really love the leather look of this valet tray. It’s both stylish and functional, giving a classy touch to my nightstand while keeping small items neatly organized. The PU leather finish feels smooth, looks high-end, and the construction feels sturdy.
Pros:
Elegant PU leather design with a textured finish
Compact 8x8 inch size fits perfectly on nightstands, dressers, or desks
Multi-purpose — great for keys, watches, jewelry, remotes, or glasses
Water-resistant surface makes it easy to wipe clean
Adds a decorative touch while being practical
Makes a thoughtful and stylish gift
Cons:
The sides are a little low, so bulkier items may slide out
Only available in limited colors compared to some other organizers
Overall, this is a really nice valet tray. It looks more expensive than it is, keeps my essentials in one place, and adds a clean, organized look to my space. Definitely worth it if you like the leather aesthetic!
