The feast of Epiphany and its following season are not as well observed as they should be. Many of us associate Epiphany with the visit of the Magi but don't know much more about it. In this short volume, priest and theologian Fleming Rutledge expounds the primary biblical texts and narrative arc of the season, inviting us to discover anew "the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."

Deacon Phoenix of the Clergy brings brilliant theological clarity to true diaconal ministry by engaging the listener with an intense look into its history.

Wann sollten Christen sich aufgrund verschiedener Lehrmeinungen trennen und wann sollten sie nach Einheit streben? Diese Frage lässt sich nicht immer einfach beantworten.
