To take a journey, travelers must know where they are, where they are going, and how to get there. Moral theology examines the same three truths.

The Christian faith has been vigorously defended with a variety of philosophical, historical, and theological arguments, but many of the arguments that worked in an earlier age no longer resonate in today's educated West. Where has apologetics gone wrong? What is the best response to the growing challenge presented by scientific discovery and naturalistic thought?

The following document concerning Mary, Mother of Jesus, contains little that is fundamentally new. It is rather for the most part a synthesis of Mary’s exalted roles as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix, and Advocate as they are already contained in the sources of divine revelation, Sacred Scripture and Apostolic Tradition, as interpreted by the Magisterium (cf. Dei Verbum, n. 9, 10), and as it is presently understood and experienced in the dynamic ecclesial life of the Living, Pondering, and Praying Church, the People of God. It is true that in the divine drama of how God makes himself and his ...

Gregory the Great (bishop of Rome from 590 to 604) is one of the most significant figures in the history of Christianity. His theological works framed medieval Christian attitudes toward mysticism, exegesis, and the role of the saints in the life of the church. The scale of Gregory's administrative activity in both the ecclesial and civic affairs of Rome also helped to make possible the formation of the medieval papacy.

What if the Gospel is not about making the Godless Godly, but making the godly godless? What if Jesus isn’t interested in calling us to add one more deity to our list of priorities, but to abandon the notion of the divine as we’ve imagined it altogether, and to follow him down a path so contradictory to our concepts of God, that it looks more like forsaking him than following him? In The Atheistic Theist, Jeff Turner argues that the only way to find God is to lose God, and that many of us who think we’ve found God, have lost God. This book is a radical call to recapture the Church’s...

El Misterio de la Providencia, a pesar de haber sido publicado hace mas de trescientos años, permanece como un clásico de la Fe Evangélica Protestante, tanto por su solidez bíblica, como por su profunda aplicación pastoral.

George Whitefield (1714-1768) dijo que estos clásicos se seguirían leyendo hasta el fin de los tiempos, pues “aunque sus autores murieron, hablan todavía por sus escritos: una ...

Jesus quoted Hosea in saying, "I desire mercy and not sacrifice." The prophet Samuel similarly told King Saul, "To obey is better than sacrifice. In fact, an attentive read through the Old Testament will show that there are a lot of things better than sacrifice. What was the role of Old Testament sacrifices? How does that affect our understanding of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross? Pavao forces us to look at verses we gloss over because they contradict our understanding of the purpose of the Jewish sacrificial system. Have you ever considered that God once said: I didn’t speak to your ...

Many Christians are under the impression that God's grace and his favor are two different things - that while his grace may be a gift, his favor is something we must earn. This misunderstanding has led to destructive teachings about "prosperity" and blessings, and ultimately to lives that feel unfulfilled and inadequate. Pastor Greg Gilbert puts favor back in its rightful place, as God's gift through Jesus Christ. He shows how the favor that Jesus earned through his perfect life and sacrificial death becomes ours the moment we believe.

This second book (How They Wrote the Gospels Volume 2) fulfils the promise of the first volume “How They Wrote the Gospels”. This book surveys the literature about how the gospels might have been written. Falling firmly on the idea that the writing of the gospels was a project in which four or more writers had copies of a source document that they were charged with editing and converting into a document about the “Life of Jesus”. The source document in question was a history of the Jewish War probably written by Marcus Agrippa Jr and appropriated by his secretary, the man we call ...
