The author of "The Gospel of" "Inclusion" continues to rouse
organized religion as he raises controversial issues and provides
enlightening answers to the deepest questions about God and faith.
What is God? Where is God? Who is the one true God? Questions such
as these have driven a thousand human struggles, through war,
terrorism, and oppression. Humanity has responded by branching off
into multiple religions, including Christianity, Judaism,
Islam--each one pitted against the other. But it doesn't have to be
that way.
In "God Is Not a Christian, nor a Jew, Muslim, Hindu" . . ., the
provocative and acclaimed Bishop Carlton Pearson follows up on his
celebrated first book, "The Gospel of Inclusion," to tackle these
questions and many more, exploring new ideas about God and faith
and putting forth the stunning assertion that God belongs to no
particular religion but is an ever-loving presence available to
all. For these beliefs, Bishop Pearson lost his thriving
Pentecostal ministry but was catapulted instead into a greater
pulpit. His readership has grown through appearances on national
television and an extensive speaking schedule. With the world in
the midst of a holy war, there is no better time for the wisdom of
Bishop Pearson to reach a global audience.
Bishop Pearson's many loyal fans, along with new readers, will
surely welcome this provocative and eye-opening exploration of a
deeper faith, one that goes far beyond any fundamentalist way of
thinking, be it Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, etc. Simply put,
Bishop Pearson dares to tell the truth so many others are too
afraid to face.

Graham, this focused Bible course and workshop is designed to guide

2022 Catholic Media Association first place award in backlist
beauty The Vita Christi of Ludolph of Saxony, fourteenth-century
Carthusian, is the most comprehensive series of meditations on the
life of Christ from the late Middle Ages. Ludolph assembles a
wealth of commentary from the fathers of the church and the great
medieval spiritual writers and weaves them into a seamless
exposition of the Gospel. This is the full English translation of
this classic work, and, while it will be of great interest to
students of Christian spirituality, it is intended for ordinary
believers seeking to enter more deeply into the meaning of the life
of Christ. Ludolph divided his work into two parts; the present
volume contains the first half of Part Two.
