Welcome to the Bible
Author: Vicki K. Black
Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 9780819222367
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
New Episcopalians may be nervous about opening the Bible; others simply don't know how to begin. An often-overlooked gift of the Episcopal Church is that the texts and doctrines of the Bible are embedded in its prayers, liturgies, and creeds. Making that knowledge explicit and placing it in context can open the way for further and more in-depth study.

The Joy of the Gospel
Author: Pope Francis
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 0553419544
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Early Christian Writings

Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141915307
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
The writings in this volume cast a glimmer of light upon the emerging traditions and organization of the infant church, during an otherwise little-known period of its development. A selection of letters and small-scale theological treatises from a group known as the Apostolic Fathers, several of whom were probably disciples of the Apostles, they provide a first-hand account of the early Church and outline a form of early Christianity still drawing on the theology and traditions of its parent religion, Judaism. Included here are the first Epistle of Bishop Clement of Rome, an impassioned plea for harmony; The Epistle of Polycarp; The Epistle of Barnabas; The Didache; and the Seven Epistles written by Ignatius of Antioch - among them his moving appeal to the Romans that they grant him a martyr's death.

The Case for Holiness
Author: Yomi Ademuwagun
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1452044031
Category : Holiness
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
THE CASE FOR HOLINESS is borne out of the personal struggles of the author to live a holy life. This book will open the eyes of readers To The invaluable benefits of living a holy life and will educate the reader on why it is impossible for anyone to fulfill God's plan for his/her life without holiness. Every child of God must strive to live a life of holiness because holiness glorifies God, and because that is what we want to do for a God who loves us, who is so merciful to our unrighteousness and, if we sincerely repent, does not remember our sins and lawless deeds any more (Hebrews 8:12). This book will not only provoke you to love God more, To seek Him more, To desire Him more, and to adore Him more than ever before. it will definitely influence, inspire and empower you to commit to pursuing the Holiness of God. Also, this book is a must read because Holiness denies satan the access he seeks to steal, To kill, and to destroy us and those around us. Further, The bible teaches us that a new heaven and a new earth shall soon replace the present heaven and earth. The holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband is about to be revealed. In the holy city, there will be neither tears nor death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any pain (Revelation 21:1-4). And nothing unholy shall be allowed to enter the new city. Therefore, For us who are preparing for that holy city, holiness is not an option but a necessity. Because "without holiness, no one can see God." Hebrews 12:14.
