Jesus is the true bread of life, come down from heaven. His flesh, His true humanity, is our bread of life; this He gives for the life of the world. We are in Him no longer the sinful and death-bound sons of fallen Adam, but the just and life-bound people of the last Adam. Christ gives us His flesh, His glorious humanity, so that we are remade into people of righteousness and eternal life.

Plus l'Humanité se raffine et se complique, plus les chances de désordre se multiplient et leur gravité s'accentue ; car on n'élève pas de montagne sans creuser des abîmes, et toute énergie est également puissance pour le bien et pour le mal. Tout ce qui devient souffre et pèche. La vérité sur notre attitude en ce monde, c'est que nous y sommes en croix.

La nube della non-conoscenza (The Cloud of Unknowing) è una guida spirituale pratica scritta nel XIV secolo da un anonimo scrittore inglese.

È considerato uno dei più begli scritti di argomento ascetico e spirituale del XIV secolo. Il suo argomento principale è la preghiera contemplativa, che viene affrontata con un linguaggio semplice e comprensibile a tutti. Nell'esperienza mistica descritta nella "nube della non-conoscenza" si sono riscontrati molti punti di contatto e di convergenza con la meditazione come viene intesa nel Buddhismo Zen[1].

World Religion as a Context for Our Diversity is a collection of “oral essays” by Dr. Marc Gafni that offers a new “Story of Value” in response to the collapse of a shared global ethos. In many ways, we must reclaim religion as part of this story—not a return to traditional forms of religion but a shared Story of Value as a context for our diversity. At the core of world religion is a universal grammar of value. This grammar of value writes the chapters of a new Story of Value, not as mere conjecture or a constructed narrative, but as a story rooted in the value structure of Reality itself.

A compelling series of twenty essays sees Chesterton take aim at fashionable contemporary thinkers – writers and philosophers such as H. G. Wells, Rudyard Kipling and Bernard Shaw – who are proponents of rebellion and relativism. With his razor-sharp wit and charm, Chesterton cleverly unpicks these concepts, arguing that there is a better way forward.

On constate actuellement que l'évolution des sociétés s'accompagne d'une perte de référence à la transcendance ; l'hédonisme ambiant, l'esprit libertaire, les découvertes biologiques et technologiques, les nouveaux modèles économiques et sociaux conduisant à un individualisme destructeur de l'humanisme. Où cela nous mènera-t-il ?

What if the shortest book in the Old Testament held the loudest warning for our modern hearts? Enemies of the Heart brings the ancient words of the prophet Obadiah into urgent focus for today’s world.

In this galloping collection of twenty pointed essays, G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936) nimbly punctures the philosophical pretensions of modern non-Christian thinkers and artists—heretics, as he calls them. Chesterton good-naturedly takes on contemporaries Rudyard Kipling, H. G. Wells, James McNeill Whistler, and even his good friend George Bernard Shaw, exposing the muddled logic of their popular ideas with his characteristic wisdom and razor-sharp wit. He also begins to lay the groundwork for Orthodoxy, his subsequent account of a rational and coherent Christian faith.

Confessions of a scientist and closet believer It is difficult to argue that theories like evolution are wrong. But that does not mean science wins the debate with religion.

Rove comes clean about his belief in God and why it is just as intellectually valid to believe, then it is not to believe.

Why do some people, with access to every earthly amusement, find themselves desperately unhappy while others can discover happiness despite suffering and uncertainty? How does one manage to manifest unshakeable joy in the midst of immeasurable suffering? The answer is simple: some people have discovered true joy, while others are distracted by false joys. Lasting joy has nothing to do with luck or circumstance – it is an intentional...

For generations, the Black church has been a cornerstone of resilience, community, and empowerment, serving as a sanctuary for African Americans facing systemic oppression. Rooted in liberation theology and social activism, it has played a crucial role in social movements and cultural identity. However, while the Black church continues to be a source of strength, it also mirrors the complexities and contradictions of the communities it serves.
