C. S. Lewis wrote of George MacDonald: "I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continually close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself." Lewis also claimed that everything he wrote was influenced by this Scottish pastor and novelist who lived a century before Lewis. George...

Indulgences are rarely understood and, therefore, ignored by most Catholics today—even by many clergy. Most no longer understand what they are nor do they understand how they can help us, the Poor Souls—and how they can fit into a healthy spiritual life.

The Book of Enoch is not merely an ancient text — it is one of humanity’s earliest visions of divine revelation, cosmic law, and the fall and redemption of consciousness. Each section is introduced and expanded with exclusive commentary, historical background, and philosophical reflections by A. M. Solaris — guiding you through the symbolism, the theology, and the hidden wisdom that shaped later Judeo-Christian and Hermetic thought.

This volume represents one of my favorite career challenges: creating this radio adventure for the Voice of Prophecy ministry. Our broadcast team always envisioned the national audience reached by our scripts: thoughtful Christians and seekers longing for a better life empowered by the gospel. Paul’s epistle to the Philippians is among the richest of scriptural gifts to the world! Believers everywhere have been encouraged by his exhortation: “I can do ALL THINGS through Christ who strengthens me.

At-One-Ment dismantles centuries of harmful atonement theology while unveiling a breathtaking vision of God’s uncontrolling, non-violent love; one that transforms rather than punishes. Through deeply personal insights and rigorous theological exploration, discover how Jesus didn’t die to satisfy God’s wrath, but to show us we were never separate from the divine in the firrst place.

Understanding the biblical definition of sin is a necessity for correct doctrine. It is more than a semantic discussion over terminology. It goes to the heart of Christian life and experience and affects every theological position. The core of Wesleyan theology is the understanding that God delivers from all sin, both in practice and in heart. Scripture is very clear that, at the judgment, God will either condemn one to hell or allow one into heaven based upon the sinlessness of his life. The issue of dealing with sin has divided evangelical Christianity into Calvinistic and Wesleyan camps.

In A History of Religious Ideas, Mircea Eliade examines the movement of Jewish thought out of ancient Eurasia, the Christian transformation of the Mediterranean area and Europe, and the rise and diffusion of Islam from approximately the sixth through the seventeenth centuries. Eliade’s vast knowledge of past and present scholarship provides a synthesis that is unparalleled. In addition to reviewing recent interpretations of the individual traditions, he explores the interactions of the three religions and shows their continuing mutual influence to be subtle but unmistakable.

What if the bible’s most controversial passages about sexuality have been hiding a radical message of inclusion all along? In this ground- breaking micro theology series entry, discover how five key biblical texts—from Sodom and Gomorrah to Jesus’ words about eunuchs—actually open the doors to LGBTQ+ acceptance when read through a lens of love rather than a lens power. This book reveals how “defaulting to love” changes everything about how we interpret scripture.

A virus has been spreading across America. Chances are you've already been infected without even realizing it. The virus is made up of dangerous ideas - worldviews that don't reflect Jesus and biblical living. According to a recent Barna study, less than one in five practicing Christians has a biblical worldview. Idea viruses - stemming from secularism, Marxism, postmodernism, new spirituality, and Islam - are rampant in our churches today. But don't give up - there is hope!

Reframing your perspective can transform your life. We often face circumstances that we cannot change - a job we are forced to keep, a relationship that did not work out, a decision we cannot take back. The stress of life can overwhelm us, and we may not see past the obstacles in our path. In the face of unwanted challenges, we may despair over our lack of control and long for an easier way out.

"The central miracle asserted by Christians is the Incarnation. They say that God became Man. Every other miracle prepares the way for this, or results from this." This is the key statement of Miracles, in which C.S. Lewis shows that a Christian must not only accept but rejoice in miracles as a testimony of the unique personal involvement of God in His creation.

Written between A.D. 413 and 426, The City of God is one of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian thought, a book which is vital to the understanding of modern Western society. Augustine originally intended it to be an apology for Christianity against the accusation that the Church was responsible for the decline of the Roman Empire, which had occurred just three years earlier. Indeed, Augustine produced a great amount of evidence to prove that paganism was responsible for this event. However, by the time the work was finished, the book had taken on a larger theme.

How did our forebears begin to think about religion as a distinct domain, separate from other activities that were once inseparable from it? Starting at the birth of Christianity - a religion inextricably bound to Western thought - Jack Miles reveals how the West's "common sense" understanding of religion emerged and then changed as insular Europe discovered the rest of the world. Finally, in a moving postscript, he shows how this very story continues today in the minds and hearts of individual religious or irreligious men and women.

We have somehow internalized the unbiblical idea that the immaterial aspect of our being (our soul or spirit) is inherently good while the material aspect (our body) is at worst inherently evil and at best neutral - just a vehicle for our souls to get around. So we end up neglecting or disparaging our bodies. But we don't have bodies; we are our bodies. And God created us that way for a reason. Theologian Gregg Allison presents a holistic theology of the human body from conception through eternity to equip us to address pressing contemporary issues related to our bodies.

This remarkable work offers an analytical exploration of the nature of divine eternity and God's relationship to time.

In this revised edition of a formerly four-volume work, James Boice provides an overview of all the major doctrines of Christian theology in one volume. Boice carefully opens the topics like the nature of God, the character of his natural and special revelation, the fall, and the person and work of Christ with scholarly rigor and a pastor's heart.

Today, practicing shamanism doesn't mean you have to live in a rain forest or a desert. Thanks to a modern renaissance of shamanic spirituality, practitioners from all walks of life now use powerful indigenous techniques for healing, insight, and spiritual growth. With Awakening to the Spirit World, teachers Sandra Ingerman and Hank Wesselman bring together a circle of renowned Western shamanic elders - Tom Cowan, Carol Proudfoot-Edgar, Jose Stevens, and Alberto Villoldo - to present a comprehensive manual for making these practices accessible and available in our daily lives.
