This study raises that difficult and complicated question on a
broad front, taking into account the expressions and attitudes of a
wide variety of Greek, Roman, Jewish, and early Christian sources,
including Herodotus, Polybius, Cicero, Philo, and Paul. It
approaches the topic of ethnicity through the lenses of the
ancients themselves rather than through the imposition of modern
categories, labels, and frameworks. A central issue guides the
course of the work: did ancient writers reflect upon collective
identity as determined by common origins and lineage or by shared
traditions and culture?

long-held convictions, or contemplate big questions about the
universe. You will describe how your family shapes your beliefs,

This text opens with a critical review of developments in
Protestant and Catholic theology since the Reformation which have
led to the steady neglect of aesthetics in Christian theology.
Then, von Balthasar turns to the central theme of the volume, the
question of theological knowledge. He re-examines the nature of
Christian believing, drawing widely on such theological figures as
Anselm, Pascal and Newman.
A unique essay about Science and Metaphysics in which the author
Alex Red Kenaton shifts the readers awareness by disclosing
precious information. It is a stream of consciousness depicting
many reflections and dialogues revealing a loose interior monologue
connection characterised by some associative leaps in thought. This
uncommon book is held together by the author's passion for science,
spirituality and an unrelenting search for truth. Alex Red Kenaton
is a multifaceted scholar working in different fields of study:
Humanistic Social Sciences, Physical Natural Sciences, and
Metaphysical Philosophical Sciences. These areas have allowed him
to acquire a broad interdisciplinary understanding of human life.
As a new author, he compares the latest scientific discoveries in
physics to spiritual and religious texts, often finding
commonalities. One of his deeps beliefs is that people have been
searching for a way to understand if they have power in their lives
for centuries. He thinks that this mastery exists, is real, and is
located, not just metaphorically, in our hearts. Alex Red Kenaton
inspires people to step into joy, to live fully and with life's
presence, without fleeing or getting caught in protective bubbles.
He trusts that by assuming responsibilities, it is possible to live
all the aspects of life without separation, always knowing that the
external reality reflects our consciousness and nothing more.
A gripping historical biography, which will appeal to believer and
non-believer alike
Stepparenting Is Hard...but It Can Also Be Richly Rewarding
Stepparenting can sometimes feel like an overwhelming and thankless
challenge. Loving and caring for children who aren't biologically
yours means having to earn trust, establish authority, and often
put your own needs aside in favor of your stepchild's well-being or
a birth parent's wishes. But here's the good news: With some expert
guidance and God's help, you can have tremendous influence in your
stepchild's life and grow in your faith along the way. Seasoned
stepmom Laurie Polich Short understands and empathizes with the
difficult job you face. Drawing on extensive research, biblical
teaching, and her own real-life experience (including an insightful
chapter cowritten with her stepson, Jordan), Laurie provides
practical and spiritual advice to help you fully embrace and
succeed in your role as stepparent. Whether you are about to become
a stepparent or are further along on your journey, this
compassionate and insightful resource offers the hope, help, and
encouragement you've been looking for.
Stuff. We have too much of it. Clothing, kitchen gadgets,
electronics, home decor. And more of it arrives on our doorstep all
the time. Our stuff takes up an incredible amount of our space,
time, energy, and money. But do all these possessions truly make us
happier? Certified professional organizer and bestselling author
Jennifer Ford Berry says no. Rather than living for our stuff, what
actually gives us joy is knowing and living out our purpose in
life. In Make Room, Berry shows you how to live a more meaningful
and intentional life by revealing how to - define your purpose -
plan your time - declutter your home - prepare for the future - and
much more If you long to get rid of what distracts you from living
out your God-given calling in life, this book is your roadmap to
success, offering principles to recognize and eliminate anything
that is cluttering up your life.
This is an introduction to African Christian ethics for Christian
colleges and Bible schools. The book is divided into two parts. The
first part deals with the theory of ethics, while the second
discusses practical issues. The issues are grouped into the
following six sections: Socio-Political Issues, Financial Issues,
Marriage Issues, Sexual Issues, Medical Issues, and Religious
Issues. Each section begins with a brief general introduction,
followed by the chapters dealing with specific issues in that area.
Each chapter begins with an introduction, discusses traditional
African thinking on the issue, presents an analysis of relevant
biblical material, and concludes with some recommendations. There
are questions at the end of each chapter for discussion or personal
reflection, often asking students to reflect on how the discussion
in the chapter applies to their ministry situation.
After a rough mission in Rome involving the discovery of a
devastating bioweapon, Company spy Ben Calix returns to Paris to
find his perfectly ordered world has collapsed. A sniper attack. An
ambush. A call for help that brings French SWAT forces down on his
head. Ben is out. This is a severance--reserved for incompetents
and traitors. Searching for answers and anticipating a coming
attack, Ben and a woman swept up in his misfortunes must travel
across Europe to find the sniper who tried to kill him, the medic
who saved his life, the schoolmaster who trained him, and an
upstart hacker from his former team. More than that, Ben must come
to grips with his own insignificance as the Company's plan to stop
Leviathan from unleashing the bioweapon at any cost moves forward
without him--and he struggles against the infection that is swiftly
claiming territory within his own body. Award-winning author James
R. Hannibal ratchets up the tension on every page of this
suspenseful new thriller.
Wanneer die lewe se probleme swaar op jou skouers druk, is dit tyd om stil te staan en op Jesus te fokus. Onthou dat geen probleem wat vandag oor jou pad kom groter is as sy krag om jou te help nie.

Hoe beter jy die liefdevolle Verlosser leer ken, hoe meer sal jy Hom liefhę en vrede vind in sy Teenwoordigheid. Verdiep jou in Jesus se woorde in hierdie dagboek sodat jy werklik kan hoor wat Hy vir jou wil sę.
