First published in 1962, this wonderfully provocative book introduced the notion of "pseudo-events" - events such as press conferences and presidential debates, which are manufactured solely in order to be reported - and the contemporary definition of celebrity as "a person who is known for his well-knownness". Since then Daniel J. Boorstin's prophetic vision of an America inundated by its own illusions has become an essential resource for any listeners who wants to distinguish the manifold deceptions of our culture from its few enduring truths.

Sometimes we ask What is God's will for my life? when we should really be asking Who should I be? The Bible has an answer: Be like the very image of God. By exploring ten characteristics of who God is—holy, loving, just, good, merciful, gracious, faithful, patient, truthful, and wise—this audiobook helps us understand who God intends for us to be. Through Christ, the perfect reflection of the image of God, we will discover how God's own attributes impact how we live, leading to freedom and purpose as we follow his will and are conformed to his image.

One of the most fascinating things about the Bible, is the typology contained in scripture. Stories such as Abraham and Isaac take on a new dimension when we consider the elements of the story that correspond to the crucifixion of Christ. For example, Abraham had one son. God had one begotten Son. Abraham took his son up a hill to be sacrificed. On this day the son carried the wood required to make the sacrifice. We see a parallel in that God saw to it through providence, that his son would thousands of years later, ascend a hill in order to be a sacrifice. On this day he would carry the ...

The Discarded Image paints a lucid picture of the medieval worldview, providing the historical and cultural background to the literature of the middle ages and renaissance. It describes the 'image' discarded by later years as "the medieval synthesis itself, the whole organization of their theology, science, and history into a single, complex, harmonious mental model of the universe". This, Lewis' last book, has been hailed as "the final memorial to the work of a great scholar and teacher and a wise and noble mind".

The mystery of the Trinity and the mystery of the human person are intricately connected, and thus it is fitting that we come to know both God and man in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ, the last Adam (1 Cor 15.45) in whom the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily (Col 2.9). This second volume of Met. Kallistos’ collected works explores the mystery of the Trinity and of the human person created in the image of God.
