Il Cristianesimo come fatto mistico rappresenta una tappa nel cammino dell'evoluzione umana, mentre i processi dei Misteri e gli effetti che ne conseguirono sono la preparazione di questo fatto mistico. Il Cristianesimo, secondo Steiner, trasse il contenuto dei Misteri dall'oscurità dei Templi alla chiara luce del giorno.

A child peeling an orange on the subway. A bearded man with gentle eyes holding a tin cup on the corner. When we see life through the lens of faith, everyday moments become a source of hope and strength. In this collection of essays, chaplain Andrea Raynor reveals the unexpected places she has experienced the Divine and shows us how we, too, might come to see life as a spiritual adventure - one on which we are never truly alone.

Drawing on more than five decades of attentive listening, Jeff Crosby explores how popular music has functioned as a form of "general revelation"—a way listeners encounter questions of God, purpose, justice, suffering, and hope beyond formal religious institutions. Through seventeen concise, engaging artist portraits, he examines how musicians across pop, rock, soul, folk, and R&B have articulated spiritual longing, wrestled with faith and doubt, and offered listeners imaginative resources for navigating their own interior lives.

From award-winning Christian fiction author Laurie Larsen comes something a little different ... A life-long Christian, I've read the Bible several times. But this time was different. My goal wasn't to just journey from cover to cover and consider it done. You know, cross it off my list and move on. I wanted to actually learn something that would impact my life. So for a year, I read my chronological Bible. And when something confused me or interested me or I wanted to learn more, I jotted it down. During Year 2, I went back and did just that -- I researched, asked questions, strived to ...

"LA HISTORIA SE REPITE PORQUE NADIE LA ESCUCHA" La influencia del posmodernismo nos ha hecho creer que el punto de tener un debate es tener un debate y luego estar de acuerdo en diferir (sentarse en una fiesta de amor de afirmación mutua). Para Trueman, el punto del debate es, como el Apóstol Pablo demuestra claramente una y otra vez en el libro de los Hechos, establecer cuál es la mejor posición. Esta colección de ensayos realiza un examen profundo del estado de la iglesia evangélica en la actualidad, y a diferencia de muchos de los debates actuales, ofrece, a la luz de las ...

¿Cuántas veces escuché en mi niñez? "Dios no se enoja." Pero sí, si se enoja y descubrirlo nos puede resultar hasta contradictorio con lo que habíamos oído de él. Aunque reflexionando un poco, pensemos en un papá que ama a su hijo. Cuando el hijo es pequeño le muestra la escalera y le dice: "por aquí no bajes porque te caes y te vas a lastimar." El pequeño que apenas está aprendiendo a caminar, inquieto por aprender se acerca a la escalera y el papá le dice con voz fuerte: ¡No, por allí no porque te caes! Realmente el papá quiere proteger a su hijo del peligro. Entonces ¿...

Each year Christmas is assailed with some wanting to cover it with more tinsel and others wishing to remove it altogether. Either way, the message of Christmas gets obscured. Christmas with Christ is a reminder that Christ is at the heart of Christmas. The Creator of the sun, the moon, and all the stars entered His creation as a little baby beneath a bright star in a stable at Bethlehem. Shepherds witnessed. Wisemen worshiped. Because of its immensity, over 2,000 years later God's Christmas gift to the world is still being unwrapped. This book helps to further reveal Christ.

Tilskyndet af sin forargelse over selv kyndige journalisters og tvreporteres gentagne bevidstløse snak om "det muslimske tørklæde", som om tørklæder først var opfundet i 1700tallet, og som om der ikke var i titusindvis af utilslørede muslimske kvinder i verden, satte Benny Andersen sig ned og skrev denne bog, hvor han ønsker at nuancere og korrigere en række af de ting, der skrives om muslimer og Islam. Også de evindelige generaliseringer, hhv. "kristne" og "muslimer" tager han fat i.

Billions of people across the world and across time have followed the words of this ancient book. Countless numbers have died defending it. Even today, in the 21st century heated debates are fought every day over the truth which lies within. Great thinkers and intellectuals have seen something of pure wisdom and truth in it and others simply see it as an historical document, written by people from a different time and place.

Vista, udito, tatto, gusto, olfatto. La fisicità della divinità deve essere presa alla lettera. Erri De Luca e Gennaro Matino vanno dritti alla sostanza della lingua sacra. Perché le scritture per parlarci devono adottare vie di comunicazione a noi familiari. Gli apostoli vedono Dio, lo toccano, sentono la sua voce, ne percepiscono il profumo, condividono il pane nell'ultima cena.

Dio è nostro Padre, Creatore del cielo, della Terra e dell’intero Universo. Nostro Padre è onnipotente. Non può essere meglio. Non possiamo avere un Padre migliore. Siamo fortunati. Dio abita in noi! Siamo portatori di Dio! Però! Dio non è Padre soltanto dei cristiani, ma di tutti gli uomini della Terra. Vero! Verissimo! Tutti siamo figli di Dio, ma non tutti siamo consapevoli di questa bella notizia! Se avessimo la consapevolezza come un granello di senape, che è piccolissimo come dice il Vangelo, potremmo spostare le montagne.

My adventure started one day as I considered writing a fiction story using Heaven as the main stage. You know - bright lights, angels, and wonderful people living in pleasant villages. That was the beginning of an adventure that would be 60 pages of scribbled wonder. So I could write about Heaven, I decided to ask God to allow me to visit there. Putting it mildly, going to Heaven would steal away my breath. Since the visit in 1991 my thinking and outlook on life changed me. I was already a Christian - but this was different.

Il popolo Ebreo era disperso in tutto il mondo, vivendo in diaspora. E per tutti questi anni, vivendo nelle terre straniere tra le culture e le religioni diverse, non ha perso la fede, la propria cultura e le tradizioni. 1878 anni sono tanti per dimenticare l`appartenenza nazionale. Gli Ebrei no! Non vi sembra una cosa eccezionale?
