Renaissance Architecture
The Renaissance was a diverse phenomenon, marked by innovation and economic expansion, the rise of powerful rulers, religious reforms, and social change. Encompassing the entire continent, Renaissance Architecture examines the rich variety of buildings that emerged during these seminal centuries of European history. Although marked by the rise of powerful individuals, both patrons and architects, the Renaissance was equally a time of growing group identities and communities - and architecture provided the public face to these new identities . Religious reforms in northern Europe, spurred on by Martin Luther, rejected traditional church function and decoration, and proposed new models. Politi...

Publisher description
Living Faith: A Journey Into the Nature of Faith
"Faith"-What is it really? How is it defined? What is its nature? How does faith function within a biblical framework? Is faith something we believe and are convinced of? Or is it something we do or exercise? Is faith a verb or a noun? How do we know if we even have saving faith? Faith is such a simple word. We use it all the time in the context of Christian experience. Yet, many struggle to truly understand its nature. Trust, believe, faith, and faithfulness all carry profound implications depending on how we understand and define the Greek and Hebrew terms from which these English words are derived. Ultimately, we know that Yeshua (Jesus) is the focus of our faith, and in Him all our statements of belief cohere or come together. Yet, when Yeshua describes true "saving faith," He does so in terms not only of what one thinks about Him, but what one does because of Him. Ultimately, if faith without works is a dead faith, what does a living faith look like?

Breaking Bread

In this remarkable book, Lynne Anderson lets recent immigrants to America speak in their own words about the foods they most loved from their homelands.

The Image of Venice
The city of Venice holds a special place in the global imagination. This book explores the creation of one of its largest surviving depictions, which has remained almost unknown to the wider public since its creation exactly four centuries ago. Singed and dated 1611, the painting is the work of the notable early seventeenth-century Bolognese artist Odoardo Fialetti. His huge birds-eye view of the watery townscape is enlivened by tiny vignettes of Venetian life. Eight square meters in size, this remarkable painting is a tour-de-force among depictions of cities. In 1636 the painting was given to Eton College by the former British ambassador to Venice, Sir Henry Wotton. Over the centuries it wa...
