Clare of Assisi is generally known as “ the female friend” of Saint Francis of Assisi, and for centuries her legacy has remained obscured by his shadow. Yet Clare's life and story ought to shine in its own light and on its own terms (her name, after all, means “ light” ). She is a figure of true heroism, tenacity, beatitude and grit who plotted her improbable course in the context of the raucous and explosive period of the Middle Ages.

Empress Zita of Austria (1892—1989) was declared a Servant of God by Pope Benedict XVI. But who is she? What is it about her life and spirituality that inspired the Church to open the investigation into her beatification?

The Church has been both sanctuary and source of deep wounding—offering healing in one moment and harm in the next. In Fractured Witness: Reflections on the Redemption, Reformation, and Reclamation of the Church, Dr. Matt Pandel dares to confront this paradox head-on with unflinching honesty and unwavering hope.

Jesus warned us about wars and rumors of wars, that these would be the beginnings of birth pains; a world-wide struggle that will result in a new, transformed world. Many of the signs he cited correspond to the seven seals opened by the Lamb in the book of Revelation and the destruction of a country called, Babylon the Great.

Durante décadas, el Dr. David Jeremiah ha escudriñado las Escrituras en busca de respuestas respecto al fin del mundo, los eventos monumentales del futuro, conocidos como el Rapto, la Tribulación, la Segunda Venida, y más. En La gran desaparición, el Dr. Jeremiah recopila su investigación profética para los creyentes curiosos que esperan pacientemente el retorno triunfante de Cristo.

Supernatural experiences can be powerfully moving, but they also can be diverse and complex. God desires to anoint all His people with His supernatural power so that we can encounter Him in deep and personal ways. To rightly walk in this power, we must understand both the opportunity and the responsibility that come with this invitation.

El término "teología liberal" a menudo se malinterpreta, se confunde con ideologías y a veces es apoyada por cristianos genuinos que están preocupados por cuestiones de justicia social. También se ha señalado injustamente contra iglesias e incluso denominaciones enteras debido a diferencias doctrinales. Entonces, ¿qué es la teología liberal? El cristianismo liberal eleva la razón y la experiencia moderna al nivel de fuentes y normas que anulan la Biblia y la tradición cristiana ortodoxa.

The Journey of God is an exploration into the rich tapestry of Christianity, designed to captivate both mind and soul. The Journey of God transcends traditional theology writing, weaving a compelling narrative that journeys through the six pivotal acts of the Christian story―Creation, Fall, Nation, Redemption, Church, and End. Each chapter unfurls as part novel, part sermon, and part philosophical inquiry, challenging listeners to engage with deep theological questions in the order they naturally arise.

Plato. Aquinas. Descartes. Kant. Freud. These great thinkers are still impacting the culture today—from public-policy decisions to world events, theology, the arts, education, and even everyday conversations. In this classic book, the late R. C. Sproul expertly surveys history's most influential streams of thought, proving that ideas are not just passing fads—they have consequences for generations to come. Helping readers better understand how many of these ideas have shaped their own thinking, this audiobook will empower Christians to be a Christlike influence in the world.

From the classroom to mainstream media, Christians regularly find their fundamental beliefs discounted by opponents who consider faith to be incompatible with reason. Faith is viewed as subjective, emotional, and a crutch for those who find the real world too hard. The late R. C. Sproul, however, claims faith reveals just how rational Christianity truly is. This audiobook surveys the history and fundamentals of apologetics to demonstrate how reason and scientific inquiry actually support Christianity's claims—thus equipping believers to defend the existence of God and the Bible's authority.

Challenges abound when it comes to reading Scripture, including not only the variety of actual interpretations of the Bible but also the plurality of reading cultures, each with its own preferred frame of reference. A cynical observer might say that Christians have never agreed upon how to interpret the Bible, or even on the meaning of the "literal sense."

Since the days of the early church, Christians have wrestled with the relationship between law and gospel. If, as the apostle Paul says, salvation is by grace and the law cannot save, what relevance does the law have for Christians today? By revisiting the Marrow Controversy—a famous but largely forgotten eighteenth-century debate related to the proper relationship between God's grace and our works—Sinclair B. Ferguson sheds light on this central issue and why it still matters today.

The Bible is filled with stories of people who walked away from face-to-face encounters with Jesus thinking he was a total jerk. This book explores the premise that if Jesus were to return today as he did two thousand years ago, he (or she!) would meet the same fate. That is, his own people would fail to recognize who he is, they would argue with him incessantly, and seek to have him destroyed. Written by a seasoned atheist turned Christian, this book seeks to help non-Christians have a better understanding of Christianity, including why we don't always do as we should.

In this short but stimulating work, Peter Leithart draws upon insights from history, theology, philosophy, and literature to connect two of the most glorious and unique truths of Christianity; its hopeful eschatology and its doctrine of a dynamic, personal Trinity. First, Leithart shows that the biblical view of history is essentially comic and hopeful, in contrast to the classical Greco-Roman view, which is essentially and irredeemably tragic.

In all the discussion of women’s roles in the Church, we’ve ignored a pressing question: Why don’t men go to church anymore? Why are the most common traits of the modern Church doves and quilts and little old ladies? Dr. Leon Podles documents the current feminized state of the Western Church, the masculine traits that once characterized Christianity, and how they can be restored. While the masculine exodus from churches is dangerous for the Church, it is also dangerous for society as a whole. Masculinity will out.

Dès les premières pages, Benoît XVI présente Jésus comme un roi de la Paix, de la simplicité et des pauvres. Jésus n'est pas un révolutionnaire politique, il ne vient pas comme destructeur, il ne se fonde pas sur la violence, il ne déclenche pas d'insurrection militaire contre Rome; il vient avec le don de la guérison, il se consacre à ceux qui sont marginalisés. Son pouvoir est différent : c'est dans la pauvreté de Dieu, dans la Paix de Dieu que réside son seul pouvoir salvifique. Pour la première fois dans l'histoire, un pape en fonction publie un ouvrage à titre personnel.

The publication of the long-awaited English edition of Elder Anthimos of Saint Anne’s, translated from the sixth Greek edition (2004), brings to the Anglophone world a treasure of Orthodox spirituality. Elder Anthimos (1913-1996) was a humble monk of the St. Anne’s Skete on Mount Athos whose life shone “like a star shedding a new light of piety and as a brightly shining vessel of grace.”

Islam will be the world’s largest religion by 2075. Why? Derek P. Gilbert, author of the groundbreaking books The Great Inception and Last Clash of the Titans, argues that Islam is too big and too successful to be the work of just one spirit. Tracing the pagan religions of the nations around ancient Israel, Gilbert makes the bold claim that the religion of Muhammad is actually a collaboration by the old gods of Mesopotamia, a desperate partnership of fallen angels who were caught off-guard by the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

So many renowned biblical scholars have been trying to tell us these truths – but their findings have been largely ignored and often disconnected from conventional theological understanding. Carl Gallups has gathered the answers to a myriad of tough theological questions into a single captivating resource. If you don’t listen to this book, you’ll forever miss the central theme and understanding of the entire Word of God. This book is that important! • Dr. Thomas R. HornDo you want to know a dirty little secret? Here it is.

In A Christian Manifesto, Francis Schaeffer issues a call to action for Christians to display the power of the truth of the gospel for both the individual and society through consistent teaching and action. Arguing that Christians can change the course of history by returning to biblical truth and by submitting to Christ's reign over all of life, this classic work offers wisdom for the present and clarity for the future as believers seek to live out their faith in a post-Christian world.
