In western post-Christian society, humans are thought of less like precious image bearers and more like commodities. The canary in the coal mine of this ideological shift is often women and children, which manifests itself in the seemingly built-in disdain towards motherhood and children for their lack of production of economically valuable goods. However, the risk of this utilitarian approach to human life is not just outside the church, but within those spaces as well.

The Kebra Nagast stands as one of the most revered and spiritually potent works in the Christian world—a foundational text of Ethiopian identity and a testament to a lineage believed to descend from the union of King Solomon of Israel and Makeda, the Queen of Sheba.

We are witnessing the end of Western Civilization. The present crisis in our culture is the greatest since the first century. Many commentators on the present scene believe that the entire world is moving into a period of neo-tribalism. In this striking book, theologian James B. Jordan argues that this cultural change is part of God's ongoing plan for humanity, the plan by which the Holy Spirit grows God's daughter, humanity, into a bride for His Son. The present crisis provides a tremendous opportunity for the Christian Church to challenge and transform the world as never before.

The preaching of the truth, brother, and the confession of Orthodoxy is more needful for us than everything else, and we must make this confession before all mankind. For this is the foundation of all who believe. On account of this confession Peter was called blessed and was appointed to bear the keys of the kingdom of God. Paul, too, bore the hope of receiving the crown of life, since he kept and preached the faith. Indeed, the whole choir of the saints who did likewise and finished the race well has been glorified. We must also build up our neighbor, as much as we are able.

Ist das Leben durch Evolution entstanden oder hat Gott die Welt erschaffen? Kreationisten und z. B. die "Neuen Atheisten" um Richard Dawkins sind sich wenigstens darin einig, dass beides gleichzeitig nicht geht. Und viele Menschen, die sich vom christlichen Glauben angezogen fühlen, fragen sich daher: "Wie soll ich der Bibel glauben, wenn das bedeutet, dass ich die Wissenschaft ablehnen muss?" Aber ist das wirklich so? Muss man sich wirklich zwischen Wissenschaft und Religion entscheiden? Timothy Keller möchte sowohl glaubenden wie auch auch suchenden Menschen helfen, Wissenschaft und Glauben in Einklang zu bringen.

In this unique and thought-provoking work Gardiner proves that the Ark of the Covenant, the Shroud of Turin, and Mary are united in ways never before imagined.

If Christians were to be presented with an opportunity to create a new government, what would we create? Would we try the Constitution again or would we try something new? Did those who came before us do everything perfectly, or are we suffering needlessly in areas where we have strayed from God's divine revelation? In other words, how can we fix the mistakes of our Founding Fathers? Did they make mistakes at all, and how would we know if they did? By what standard does does a people look to establish justice in the land?

Who was among the last at the cross and the first at the empty tomb? Mary Magdalene. Her role in Jesus's ministry as told in all four Gospels was pivotal in many ways. Yet her story is often overlooked, confused, or scandalized by the church. In The Mary We Forgot, award-winning church historian and theologian Jennifer Powell McNutt unpacks Scripture and church history to reveal the real Mary Magdalene as a model of discipleship for all Christians today—women and men alike.

I nostri padri erano convinti di vivere sotto l’occhio di Dio: la sua esistenza era certa come quella del sole che sorge e tramonta. Oggi abbiamo smesso di crederci, o anche solo di pensarci.

Aldo Cazzullo fa con la Bibbia quel che aveva fatto con Dante: ci racconta la storia, in modo chiaro e comprensibile a tutti, con continui riferimenti all’attualità, alla nostra vita, passando attraverso le vicende storiche e i capolavori dell’arte.
