Most people encounter disability at some point in their lives, either in their own bodies or through a friend or loved one. Faith leaders, sacred texts, and members of religious communities frequently offer religious teachings and metaphors as explanation for the presence of disability, but rarely do we hear the voices of people living with disabilities reflecting on their experiences of God, faith, or religious life.

Discover the wisdom of St. Claude La Colombière (1641–1682), the Jesuit saint who was the confessor to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and championed devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In Seeking the Heart of Christ: Christian Reflections on the Interior Life, you will find a treasury of spiritual reflections that inspire deeper faith, encourage virtue, and guide the soul toward holiness.

Crucifixion, the Romans believed, was the worst fate imaginable, a punishment reserved for slaves. How astonishing it was, then, that people should have come to believe that one particular victim of crucifixion—an obscure provincial by the name of Jesus—was to be worshipped as a god.

Until now, the standard narrative of American religious history has begun with English settlers in Jamestown or Plymouth and remained predominantly Protestant and Atlantic. Driven by his strong sense of the historical and moral shortcomings of the usual story, Thomas A. Tweed offers a very different narrative in this ambitious new history.

Shortly before midnight on Sunday 14th April 1912, RMS Titanic struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank at 2.17 am. What made this tragedy particularly shocking at the time was that Titanic was widely believed to be unsinkable — by passengers, crew and by the public at large. Today Darwin's theory of evolution enjoys a similar "unsinkable" reputation. The thesis of this book is that 19th century Darwinian science, developing as it did in an age that also gave rise to supreme confidence in Titanic's unsinkability, has collided with the 'iceberg' of 21st century molecular biology.

En este audiolibro se revelan, tras tres años de trabajo en colaboración con una veintena de científicos y especialistas de alto nivel, las pruebas modernas de la existencia de Dios. Con un lenguaje accesible a todos, los autores de este audiolibro relatan, de manera apasionante, la historia de los avances científicos y ofrecen un panorama riguroso de las nuevas pruebas de la existencia de Dios. A principios del siglo XX, creer en un Dios creador parecía oponerse a la ciencia. ¿No será hoy todo lo contrario? Una invitación a la reflexión y al debate.

Prem Pradhan was led to Christ by members of Bakht Singh's people, in a city near Nepal. He was Nepal's first modern convert. Later, he became Nepal's apostle. By the end of his life, Prem had spent half of his Christian life in prisons. His crime? Preaching Christ and baptizing others. His very first converts were all fellow prisoners. (By law, every convert had to spend one year in prison for the crime of being baptized.) Prem insisted that all his converts obey the law.

"天國與地獄"不僅在探討靈魂的歸宿, 也進入了史威登堡深邃的基督教神學與聖經詮釋. 他並非只是哲學家或秘宗學者, 而是一位以獨特方式解讀聖經的靈視者. 他的思想超越了傳統神學, 並以親身體驗和靈性洞察, 揭示天堂, 地獄, 以及靈魂的最終命運. 史威登堡在本書中提出了一個革命性的觀點, 天國與地獄並非上帝強制審判人送往的領域, 而是靈魂依其內在選擇自動進入的境界. 他強調聖經的象徵性認為其文字背後蘊藏著更深層的靈性意義. 例如, 聖經中提到的"新耶路撒冷", 在他的詮釋中並非一座地理上的城市, 而是一個象徵人類靈性提升的境界. 此外他認為天使並非上帝特別創造的靈物, 而是那些在世時選擇慈善行並愛神的靈魂之自然轉化. 這與基督教的傳統觀點形成鮮明對比. 史威登堡也探討了基督教的核心概念, 靈魂的重生, 他認為真正的信仰並不是口頭的信念或宗教的儀式, 而是人內在的轉變. 只有透過善行與愛, 靈魂才能與天堂的光輝相契合. 他的神學思想在某種程度上與儒家"格物致知"的理念產生共鳴. 人的道德選擇直接影響靈魂的昇華與終極歸宿. 他的神學也與道家"人法地, 地法天, 天法道, 道法自然" 的理念相呼應. 對於華人聽眾, 這本書不僅是基督教神學的啟示, 也是一場跨文化的靈性對話. 當你聆聽史威登堡的靈視世界, 你會發現天國與地獄並非遙遠的概念, 而是我們每一天的選擇所塑造的最終歸宿.

In a May 2024 Pew poll, more than two-thirds of Americans indicated they thought that in vitro fertilization (IVF) is good and should be accessible to anyone who wants it. Even among social conservatives—including the current U.S. administration—there is a push for wider accessibility for artificial procreation options. But is IVF truly the gift for infertile couples that it’s perceived to be?

When Brandon Blackmore left the FLDS Church in 2012, he had to endure seeing his children taken from him by the cult—and fought tooth and nail to keep the FLDS from trafficking his children. This is that story.

More than four-fifths of the world's Jews now live in Israel and the United States, with the former's military dominance of its region guaranteed by the latter while the loudest voices decrying antisemitism see it coming from the Left not the Right. Mazower clearly and carefully shows us how we got here, seeking to illuminate rather than blame.

I wrote these books, Part One and Part Two, for all those who demanded of me believable answers to their thoughtful and intelligent questions. With or without me, these people so often found themselves in the presence of the Risen Christ and subsequently had even more questions about Jesus of Nazareth. He was and is to them the man Jesus, before the transformation wrought by the resurrection. Our subsequent myths have bred confusion, making Jesus of Nazareth remote and incomprehensible and the Risen Christ an unrelated magical figure.

For centuries, readers have marveled at the imaginative brilliance of authors like C. S. Lewis, Dorothy L. Sayers, and Charles Williams. But what inspired these literary giants? The Way of Dante takes you on a journey of discovering how the medieval poet Dante Alighieri and his masterwork, The Divine Comedy, shaped their thoughts, artistry, and faith.

You have read the book of Acts before, but you have never heard the men who lived it tell the story themselves. For the first eleven chapters PETER tells the story of Acts. Then beginning in chapter thirteen Barnabas tells his part of the story . . . then Silas. Then TIMOTHY, etc. It is as though each man left a diary for you to read. You now have a record of the eye witness account of the first-century events. Acts in First Person is the perfect companion to The Story of My Life . . . as Told by Jesus Christ. The five historical books of the New Testament are all now in first person.

Michael Vlach describes the 10 interpretation principles that guide dispensationalism's understanding of the Bible's storyline from Genesis 1 through Revelation 22. He also lays out the interpretation tactics of non-dispensationalism so the listener can grasp the contrast. If you want to discover why dispensationalists understand the Bible they way they do, this book is the answer.

What would happen if artificial intelligence searched for truth without bias—purely by logic? It led to Jesus. You’ve heard opinions. You’ve seen contradictions. Maybe you’ve even felt the tension between faith and reason. But what if the world’s most advanced reasoning engine—unaffected by emotion, tradition, or pressure—evaluated all the evidence from scratch? Even AI Would Choose Jesus is a bold and compelling apologetics book that walks listeners through the case for Christianity from the perspective of artificial intelligence.

Mary Claire Kendall grapples with Hemingway's faith and does so commendably. She doesn't explain him or explain him away, but she does get us closer to his Catholic heart. Those wishing to listen to the heart of Hemingway will relish this book.
