The Augustine Way recovers Augustine's mature apologetic voice to address the challenges facing today's church. It offers a compelling argument for Christian witness that is rooted in tradition and engaged with contemporary culture. The book focuses on Augustine's best-known works, Confessions and The City of God, to retrieve his scriptural and ecclesial approach for a holistic apologetic witness.

It is time to rethink the gospel. When the church of five hundred years ago started selling indulgences, it was time to rethink the gospel. Jesus repeatedly says “follow me” and his words instruct us concerning how to do that. Unfortunately, his words put us at odds with the world, so we invent doctrines that are merely things to believe in order to find ways around his words. When today’s Christianity is reduced to a gospel of material prosperity and the service of political issues like abortion and homosexuality, it is time to rethink the gospel and rediscover Jesus’ words. If one...

Journey through the lives of three iconic biblical figures and the author himself as destiny is fulfilled. From the Scripture, to the streets, to the deep corners of our hearts, Proving Ground uncovers powerful lessons that will challenge and inspire you to embrace the path set before you by the Creator of the Universe.

No philosophical writings have survived from Hypatia (died, 415 CE), the most famous woman philosopher of the ancient world, but that does not imply that we cannot reconstruct in considerable detail what she likely taught. Socrates Scholasticus tells us that she taught the philosophy of Plato and Plotinus, that is, the philosophy we now call Neoplatonism or Late Platonism. Moreover, later philosophers do not report that she made any radical innovations in this philosophical tradition, and so it is likely she taught the “textbook Neoplatonism” of her time. Indeed, as professors still do ...

Why do so many intelligent, informed people believe in God? Contrary to charges that they sacrifice their reason to meet their emotional needs, many claim that their intellectual journey led them, often contrary to their wishes or expectations, to belief. This book attempts to introduce the arguments that changed their minds. Interestingly, each person seems to have a unique story, following different lines of evidence. Thus, Miller introduces 17 lines of evidence. Are any of them compelling to you? Personalize your reading by rating each argument at the end of each section. By keeping the ...

En este libro Van Til argumenta que, aunque el idealismo y el cristianismo parecen estar aliados, existen diferencias fundamentales entre ellos. El idealismo enfatiza la inmanencia de Dios, mientras que el cristianismo también sostiene la trascendencia. A pesar de la alianza entre ambas corrientes, el autor defiende la fe en el Dios del cristianismo como más filosóficamente sostenible. Argumenta que la concepción central de Dios en el teísmo cristiano ofrece una unidad posible a la experiencia humana, mientras que el idealismo tiende a abandonar su ideal inicial de encontrar ...

Más allá de religiones y dogmas, ¿sabes que te han dado la capacidad innata de conocer fácilmente muchas maravillas sobre Dios?, ¿sabes usar correctamente ese poder? Dios es, sin duda alguna, el misterio más relevante y profundo del que podemos ocuparnos. Pero ¿cuáles son los principales argumentos lógicos que pueden formularse en favor de su existencia?, ¿son realmente consistentes?, ¿pueden resistir las respuestas de la crítica atea?, ¿no desaloja la ciencia a Dios?, ¿quién creó a Dios si Él creó todas las cosas?, ¿se basta el universo a sí mismo para explicar su ...

This award winning book explores the bestowed quality upon us called 'Life' through the lens of philosophy and psychology. The 149 parables and poems on the various aspects of existence are just a page or so long, but may make the reader ponder for a good while. And, hopefully, sometimes recognize and laugh at oneself. 'It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.' - Aristotle The book aspires to go beyond the 'your God - my God', 'God - No God' debates and tries to analyze the motives of the entity that created us. 'Religion's eleventh ...

God or Nature, Whatever is what happens when a philosophy grad student decides to explain Baruch Spinoza—the 17th-century lens grinder who got canceled by every major religion—using sarcasm, swearing, and a deeply unhealthy relationship with Euclidean geometry. Sophia Blackwell takes Spinoza's Ethics (a book structured like a math textbook, only less fun) and translates it into plain, hilarious, possibly heretical English. The result? A philosophical roast that actually teaches you something. Inside, you'll learn: Why Spinoza thought God was just...

The Christian New Testament is dominated by two men, Jesus and Paul. Take away the four gospels and the letters of Paul and it is surprising how little of real significance is left. Following Leslie Scrase’s recent book on the relevance of Jesus for a secular age, he felt he had to continue and take a closer look at Paul. More than any other person, Paul was responsible for turning a small Jewish sect into an organisation holding the capacity to become a world religion. His dynamic, driven, self-assured character, combined with his organisational skills, put together with his ...

Tú eres Celeste, y tu universo galáctico contiene miríadas de cuerpos celestes, de estrellas de preones, (los preones son partículas subatómicas de las que están compuestos los quarks y los leptones) de meteoritos, de cometas, de soles, de planetas que reflejan la luz del lumínico astro que orbitan, por no poder efectuar procesos de fusión termonuclear como lo hacen las benditas y radiantes estrellas. Tu centro-corazón alberga constelaciones como rebañitos de dulces estrellas, de nebulosas dentro de las cuales se gestan miles de millones de maravillas estelares, chispas celestes ...

What if the key to lasting transformation wasn’t found in your effort, but in a gift you’ve already been given? In God’s Great Grace, pastor and author Jeff Culver invites you to rediscover one of the most powerful and often misunderstood truths in the Christian life: grace isn’t just unmerited favor—it’s the very foundation of our faith, the lifeline to freedom, and the power source for living the life God intended. So many believers today are striving—striving to earn God’s love, to stay in His favor, to measure up to a standard they were never meant to carry. Others have ...

Si Dios es amor, ¿por qué no acaba con el sufrimiento?, se supone que es "Todopoderoso", ¿verdad? Nos dicen que Dios es bueno, justo, amoroso. Pero… si realmente lo es, ¿por qué el dolor sigue aquí? Si Dios puede sanar el cáncer de alguien, ¿por qué no el de todos? Si puede salvar a una persona de un accidente, ¿por qué deja morir a otras? ¿Es cuestión de fe, de suerte… o simplemente de favoritismo divino?, ¿Por qué ya no hace tantos milagros como en las historias de la biblia?. Tal vez Dios no es lo que nos dijeron. Tal vez no juega bajo nuestras reglas. O peor aún… ...

This book explores a new field called pre-philosophy that emerged out of pre-historical times to become religion and modern philosophy. Villegas covers the fundamental concepts that make up religious precepts and he shows that rationalism, faith and collectivism bring about a self-imposed cultural dictatorship.

What if God isn’t a supernatural force in the sky, but the living consciousness of the Earth itself? In 108: The Story of Discovering Earth's Consciousness, atheist Eric Leo takes listeners on an extraordinary journey that blends radical science, personal revelation, and a bold new vision of divinity. This audiobook begins with a startling premise—that planets and stars are sentient beings, their consciousness woven into the very fabric of their electromagnetic fields.

على امتداد التاريخ حاول البشر بلوغ هذه الحالة علّهم يلامسون تخومها، وما إن يشعروا باقتراب تلك التخوم حتى تبدأ رحلة التيه، يتحيرون وتحيرهم تلك الشرفات الضبابية الأخاذة..يتخبطون في وصفها ومحاولة تعريفها وتحليلها... حيرةٌ عانتها الصوفية في عالم التدين، وعانتها البوذية في عالم الوثنية، وعانتها السوريالية في عالم الحداثة المادية اللادينية !! كل هذه التوجهات تتوهم أنّها في الطريق إلى تجاوز تلك الحدود، واختراق تلك العتمة وملامسة العتبات التي تصل عالم المادة بذلك العالم؛ عالم الروح عند الصوفية، أو ما بعد النرفانا عند البوذية، أو الخط الفاصل بين الوعي واللاوعي عند السوريالية.
