A Flaming Arrow in God's Bow is a mixture of narrative or prose poetry, autobiography, and thoughts on God. Jesus Christ plays a major role in this book, as is fitting since he's really stepped up to playing a major role in my day to day life. I wrote this book with boldness, trying to show one person's unique view on sin, forgiveness, hope, repentance, and reawakening of the spirit. I wanted the book to be unique, and I believe I accomplished that goal. Buy this book, and judge for yourself.

Human rights should protect the dignity and well-being of all people. But in today's deeply divided world, some argue that cultural differences and economic inequality undermine their universality. In Human Rights in a Divided World, David Hollenbach offers a comprehensive and cohesive analysis of the challenges to human rights, suggesting that today's global realities call for important developments rooted in Catholic ethics.

Max Weber stellt sich in diesem Werk die zentrale Frage, was die abendländische Moderne so besonders macht und den ihr spezifischen wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert voran trieb. Dabei analysiert er die Ursprünge und Voraussetzungen des Kapitalismus und entdeckt eine bestimmte protestantische Ethik, die zu dieser Zeit in Mitteleuropa und Amerika vorherrschte. Im Zuge seiner Analyse untersucht er die Ausbreitung des Protestantismus und wie diese den Kapitalismus begünstige. Die protestantischen Puritaner seien dabei zunächst religiös motiviert gewesen.

The Roman Curia is the central body for the administration of the Roman Catholic Church. Its structure and organization is governed by Praedicate Evangelium, a new law issued by Pope Francis in 2022. The nature of the Curia is both confusing to many and vitally important for the administration of the Church and the Vatican.

Beyond Virtue Ethics offers a distinctive approach to virtue ethics, arguing not simply for the importance of "struggle" to virtue ethics, but that "struggle" itself is a manifestation of virtue. In doing this, Stephen M. Meawad offers a way of thinking about virtue not simply as a perfected state, but as a state that is to a greater or lesser degree a manifestation of the ideal itself, which is not attainable.

"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 ...

Peace to All Beings shows how animal rights and liberation are an essential part of any movement that is working to make the world a better place. It is a valuable aid for anyone seeking to live in harmony with the values of compassion, nonviolence, and reverence for all life.

While teaching ethics is universally applauded, how one goes about it is much more difficult and contested than is often recognized. On Teaching and Learning Christian Ethics addresses what it means to teach and learn ethics through a thorough comparison of two ethicists, Henry Sidgwick and F. D. Maurice. Where Sidgwick understood ethics as developing a method for guiding voluntary action to what is right, Maurice maintained that ethics concerns life as a whole, and that requires placing it within a metaphysical and theological realm in which the good is much more definitive than right.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was an American philosopher, lecturer, essayist, and poet, who is best remembered for leading the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was a a champion of individualism and wrote dozens of essays. Most criics consider "Self-Reliance" his best. It has the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's repeating themes, the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency.

Since its first edition in 1948, the US Conference of Catholic Bishops' Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services (ERD) has guided Catholic institutions in the provision of health care. However, while the papacy of Pope Francis and the clerical sex-abuse scandal both profoundly impacted the Catholic Church, the latest edition of the ERD does not address or reflect these transformations. Now for the first time, Todd A. Salzman and Michael G. Lawler present an extended critical commentary on the 2018 ERD.

A inveja costuma ser algo que apontamos nos outros, mas se encararmos os fatos e admitirmos ser imperfeitos, encontrá-los em nós mesmos pode realmente melhorar nossas vidas, nossa atitude e nossa felicidade. Quando descobrimos onde nossos sentimentos estão errados, podemos agir e mudar nossa mentalidade. Muitas pessoas pensam na inveja como um pecado contra os outros, mas, na verdade, estamos fazendo isso conosco mesmos. Criamos nossa própria miséria olhando para os outros e nos comparando a eles.

O dinheiro pode ser usado tanto que é uma das coisas mais desejadas neste mundo. Mas enquanto algumas pessoas trabalham, são pagas ou administram um negócio honesto, outras roubam e trapaceiam para conseguir mais. E uma vez que eles têm mais, não é suficiente.

Preguiça , ou preguiça, não é algo que fazemos; pelo contrário, nao está fazendo algo que deveríamos que o torna tão pecaminoso. As palavras latinas " tristitia " ou "acedia" significam "sem cuidado". Quando paramos de cuidar, as coisas dão errado. Como a preguiça é tão destrutiva, especialmente quando na verdade não estamos fazendo algo errado?

A new book in the religion/spirituality market informs listeners about the most enormous and longest competition the world has ever seen: the Christian Olympics, otherwise known as the "Christian race" that the Apostle Paul wrote about nearly 2,000 years ago.

Words communicate. Christians often use words to communicate to others; however, these words aren't understood by many of those outside the church. We can be so absorbed in our "christianese" that we don't realize others don't understand the jargon and cannot figure out what it is we mean by what we are saying. Static listeners will become aware of what we are saying so we can re-focus our thinking to communicate clearly to those outside the church.

Ahead of the pivotal 2020 elections, momentum is building across America to revisit the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that struck down laws protecting unborn children and their mothers nationwide. Life is Winning: Inside the Fight for Unborn Children and Their Mothers tells the story of how the pro-life cause went from an orphaned political “problem” to a winning issue embraced at the highest levels of the Republican Party, thanks to a small-but-ambitious group of pro-life women.

This booklet begins by applying Norman Vincent Peale's theory of positive thinking to leadership. From this basis in Christian leadership, the booklet goes on to consider integrity from a Christian standpoint. Christian ethical leadership is then modeled on the Biblical figures of the servant, shepherd, and steward.

In a world where past pain often feels like a permanent weight, Her Sister’s Choices, Her Tent, invites women on a transformative journey inspired by the powerful truths of Ezekiel 23. Through the lens of this challenging yet redemptive scripture, this women's Bible study reveals how God can take the broken pieces of our lives—marked by hurt, abuse, shame, and guilt—and rebuild them into a sanctuary for His presence.

Jesus said, leave your material belongings to follow me. Televangelists say money is proof that Jesus loves you, and we accept all major credit cards. I once went to a church in San Diego, and the preacher's sermon was on tithing and how "we need to tithe and not be a spiritual leach". I never went back to church again. Well, that and some other reasons, for such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
