A coherent, forceful, and compelling case for God and the Church founded by Jesus of Nazareth. This is a remarkable achievement of solid, factual, information that is loaded with ammunition for the new evangelization. Contains colorful vignettes of historic moments alternating with sustained argument. Marks challenges the reader to set aside long-held assumptions and prejudices. Jesus is the only one who proclaimed himself sinless and the only one who ever claimed to be God. His followers converted an entire empire without resort to violence, and after winning Rome they not only gave the world its calendar but transformed pagan culture beyond recognition. These hard, cold facts are presented here with copious notes for easy identification of persons, events, or doctrines that may be unfamiliar. The reader will also find a detailed index and useful appendices.

Astrologer Theodora Quinn has read all the books on positive thinking and manifestation, but finds its not as easy as The Secret makes it out to be. A passionate woman, Theodora struggles to stay on her spiritual path, despite the fact that an unpredictable teenage son, an eccentric opera-singing aunt, and an almost-ex-husband she cant resist make her doubt her ability to manifest anything but trouble. When actress Angelina Montez is killed after Theodora does her chart, and Theodoras ex is put in charge of the investigation, trouble takes on a whole new dimension.
Develops a framework to explain shifts in judicial assertiveness towards militaries, using Pakistan as an illuminating case study.
It has been some time since Catholic and liberal Protestant theologians stopped writing seriously on bibliology. Meanwhile, conservative evangelical theologians guard against the introduction of new ideas. In an effort to make headway through this gridlock, Carlos Bovell has commissioned a roundtable discussion on the prospect of whether the inspiration of Scripture might extend beyond authors and texts, and if so, what this might entail for the authority of Scripture. Taken together, the essays in this volume make an invaluable contribution to contemporary literature on the inspiration and authority of the Bible.
Work out what you want and go for it with all your conviction and don't care if you seem outrageous or stupid... All that's needed, in the end, is belief. An identical, terrifying dream haunts Londoners in the midst of economic gloom and ineffective protest. Whilst the prime minister considers a preventive war, a young man returns home with a vision for the future. Coincidences, omens and visions collide with political reality in this epic new play from the writer of Earthquakes in London. Set in a dark and magical landscape, it depicts a London both familiar and strange, a London staring into the void. In a year which has seen governments fall as the people take to the streets, 13 explores the meaning of personal responsibility, the hold that the past has over the future and the nature of belief itself.
This is supposed to be the best summer of Nicoletta Pagani's life-that is, until la famiglia partly forces, partly beckons her, to Italy. The single-most important presence in her Toronto home, la famiglia presides over Sunday mornings, the long distance calls that rejuvenate her father's soul, and the austere sepia portraits that follow her every move with a judging stare. Now, her father insists that she make the trip to find out "where she came from." Amid hostile confrontations and unspoken words, Nicoletta finds herself a stranger in the seemingly insignificant town of Portali, hidden in the pristine mountains of central Italy. She discovers the idiosyncrasies of Portali's residents: th...
