"The power of Pentecost is inseparable from the good news of the
Christ who is proclaimed in the Gospels, in accordance with the
Scriptures." Pentecost may well be the most misconstrued day on the
church calendar. A long legacy of cessationism has drained
Pentecost of much of its significance, and it's largely
misunderstood in many Western churches today, if not outright
ignored. That's not the case in Emilio Alvarez's tradition, though.
In this Fullness of Time volume, the Pentecostal bishop and
theologian offers us a rich biblical and theological introduction
to the day of Pentecost and sets it in its liturgical context—not
only in the Protestant tradition but also in Catholic, Orthodox,
and Pentecostal expressions. The result is a rich theological feast
and an invitation to find afresh the power of the gospel for all
peoples. Each volume in the Fullness of Time series invites readers
to engage with the riches of the church year, exploring the
traditions, prayers, Scriptures, and rituals of the seasons of the
church calendar.
"Can anything orthodox come from Pentecostalism?" This recasting of
Nathaniel's familiar question from the Gospel is a fair summary of
many modern Christians' assessment of the Pentecostal tradition.
Yet in recent years, a growing number of Pentecostals have been
turning afresh to the ancient, creedal Christian faith. Bishop
Emilio Alvarez has himself been at the forefront of this movement.
In Pentecostal Orthodoxy he introduces the phenomenon, and extends
the project of paleo-orthodox ressourcement (associated with
scholars such as Thomas Oden and Robert Webber) to include orthodox
expressions within Pentecostalism, particularly his own Afro-Latino
Pentecostal movement. This book is a manifesto of sorts, promising
not only to open up the possibility of a genuinely orthodox
Pentecostalism, but to reframe modern ecumenical dialogue as well.

"La bestia, la tragedia de migrantes centroamericanos en Mexico,"
es un libro que expande y profundiza lo visto en el documental la
Bestia, y expone con m?'s detalle las dificultades, los peligros y
sentimientos que enfrentan miles de seres humanos que salen desde
sus pa ses de origen en Centroam rica para transitar por una de las
rutas m?'s arriesgadas y violentas de todo el mundo para migrantes
indocumentados. Como escritor, Pedro Ultreras se vale del profuso
material producido durante y despu?'s de la filmaci n de su pel
cula y lo transfiere a una dimensi n m?'s amplia, narrando las
aventuras, los peligros y las haza as vividas por los migrantes y
por l mismo -montado tambi n sobre la bestia- a trav?'s del temible
trayecto que estos osados seres humanos siguen en pos de una
prosperidad econ mica que con frecuencia los lleva a un tr gico
desenlace de sus planes. As, el documentalista mexicano presenta en
este libro un recuento de los sucesos m?'s recientes como la atroz
masacre de migrantes en Tamaulipas en 2010, la dram tica caravana
de familias en busca de migrantes desparecidos en 2011, as como un
an lisis de la primera ley de migraci n expedida por el gobierno
mexicano que a principios del 2012 a n no se implementa. "La
bestia, la tragedia de migrantes centroamericanos en M xico" (The
beast, the tragedy of Central American migrants in Mexico) is a
book that expands and goes in depth about what was seen in the
documental "The Beast," exposing in detail the difficulties, the
dangers and the feelings faced by thousands of human beings who
leave their home countries in Central America. They travel through
one of the most risky and violent routes in the world for
undocumented immigrants as they cross through Mexico on top of "la
bestia" (or the beast), as the perilous freight trains they ride to
try to make it to the United States is called. Journalist,
filmmaker and author, Pedro Ultreras (7 Soles, 2007) makes use of
the profuse material he produced during and after the shooting of
his documentary "The Beast" and transfers it to a deeper dimension,
narrating the adventures, the hazards and the deeds lived by these
migrants and himself -as he also rides "the beast" along migrants-
go through on the dreadful journey that these daring men and women
follow in pursuit of an economic prosperity that often leads them
to a tragic outcome of their plans. La bestia, la tragedia de
migrantes centroamericanos en Mexico is a well-documented book that
serves as a historical record of the most recent events about of
the phenomenon of Central American migration, as well as gathers
the testimonies of the migrants he meets along the "migrant's
route," presenting his chilling interviews with men and women who
desperately seek to reach the U.S. In this book, Ultreras presents
a summary of the 2010 atrocious mass massacre of migrants in
Mexico, the 2011 dramatic caravan of Central American family
members seeking their missing relatives in Mexico, as well as a
brief analysis of the first ever immigration law the Mexican
government enacted in the wake of the mass killings of migrants. La
bestia, la tragedia de migrantes centroamericanos en Mexico is
profusely enriched with photographs taken by the author.
