Practicing the Monastic Disciplines
In Practicing the Monastic Disciplines, authors Sam Hamstra Jr. and Samuel Cocar recover the wisdom of the Christian desert and make it more available and accessible to modern Christians, especially those in the evangelical circle they inhabit. Believing that moderns like themselves often flail in their Christian lives, the authors discover in the desert Christians of late antiquity a clear map for growing in Christlikeness, as well as an effective set of tools (or weapons) for combating temptation. This set of insights sees its completion in the spiritual theology of Evagrius Ponticus, a monastic theologian who expertly assessed the maladies and corresponding remedies of Christian discipleship. Evagrius and his comrades offer modern Christians a coherent framework for spiritual formation and growth, one which treats seriously both the frailties of human nature and the potential for sanctification. This strand of patristic spirituality guides us toward glorifying God through both training our bodies and ordering our interior lives.
An Elegant Ending
Millions of Christians the world over hold strong convictions about what happens to humankind at the end of history: Jesus will rapture the church away. Non-Christians will suffer eternal conscious torment in hell. We will play harps on clouds forever. But what if conventional Christian ideas don't align with what the Bible actually teaches? By scrutinizing the faulty assumptions and shaky exegetical foundations found in dispensationalism, An Elegant Ending offers believers an eschatological vision that is simpler, clearer, and more strongly grounded in the biblical canon.
Faithful Presence
How can the church engage the world, not by judgment nor accommodation but by becoming the good news in our culture? Offering seven distinct spiritual practices, David Fitch helps you re-envision church, what you do in the name of church, and the way you lead a church. Reimagine the church as the living embodiment of Christ, reflecting God's faithful presence to a desperate world.
Prazer selvagem
Todas as mulheres do Texas sabiam que os Oito do Inferno ofereciam um prazer selvagem e sem compromissos. Ou quase todas... Sam MacGregor não era apenas conhecido em todo o Texas por impor as suas próprias regras e o seu sentido de justiça, mas também por conseguir que as mulheres se rendessem incondicionalmente a ele. Contudo, a sedução foi a última coisa que lhe passou pela cabeça quando encontrou uma jovem bonita em apuros. Uma mulher forte e orgulhosa que guardava segredos demasiado perigosos para os enfrentar sozinha. Isabella podia parecer inocente e ingénua, mas o seu caráter forte rivalizava com o de qualquer homem. O seu propósito inicial era entregar o seu corpo a Sam sem arriscar o coração, mas algo lhe dizia que aquele era um homem íntegro e honrado que tentava sobreviver numa terra hostil. Um homem que, por trás da sua couraça, desejava o contacto de uma mulher apaixonada e aventureira que estivesse disposta a arriscar tudo.

Latin America 2022–2023
The World Today Series: Latin America offers the latest available economic, demographic, political, and cultural information. Including solid statistical data expressing freedom, violence, and governmental orientation. Consideration is given to the evolving relationships with the United States and other Latin American nations. Revisions have also addressed new historical interpretations, for example, of the history of Mexico and latest political changes, for example, in Venezuela and Cuba. Maps, charts, and photographs provide extensive visual expressions of the region, its geography, peoples, and cultures, in particular public architecture, agricultural technology, specular geology, and striking diversity. The images offer a narrative of the multiplicity of peoples as demonstrated in their clothing, economic and everyday activities, their physical surroundings. Consequently, the narrative combines global economics, national politics, and daily social life throughout the region. The chapters can be read as individual histories for each of the countries, within the context created by contrasts and similarities with the other nations of Latin America.
