God in the Whirlwind
Author: David F. Wells
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433531348
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
Building on years of research and teaching, experienced author and theologian David Wells offers a remedy for evangelicalism’s superficial theology and weightless conception of God: a journey to discover the paradoxical nature of his holiness and love. We all struggle, at times, to hold that paradox together, commonly resulting in problems such as liberalism or legalism. Yet understanding how God’s holiness is inextricably bound to his love is what enables us to live between the two extremes and defines our life of service in this world. In the vein of classics such as Packer’s Knowing God, Wells’s biblical theology is written at an accessible level so that all readers can cultivate a balanced vision of the God who belongs in the center of it all.

Book Description
Taking Johannes Kepler as his guide, Gingerich argues that an individual can be both a creative scientist and a believer in divine design--that indeed the very motivation for scientific research can derive from a desire to trace God's handiwork.

Why the Universe Is the Way It Is
Author: Hugh Ross
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 9780801071966
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Increasingly astronomers recognize that if the cosmos had not unfolded exactly as it did, humanity would not, could not, exist. Yet these researchers--along with countless ordinary folks--resist belief in the biblical Creator. Why? They say a loving God would have made a better home for us, one without trouble and tragedy. In Why the Universe Is the Way It Is, Hugh Ross draws from his depth of study in both science and Scripture to explain how the universe's design fulfills several distinct purposes. He also reveals God's surpassing love and ultimate purposes for each individual. Why the Universe Is the Way It Is will interest anyone who wonders where and how the universe came to be, what or who is responsible for it, why we are here, or how and when the universe ends. Far from leaving the reader at this philosophical jumping-off point, Ross builds toward answering the big question of human destiny and the specific question of each reader's personal destiny.

The Sacred Universe
Author: Thomas Berry
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 9780231149525
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
A leading scholar, cultural historian, and Catholic priest who spent more than fifty years writing about our engagement with the Earth, Thomas Berry possessed prophetic insight into the rampant destruction of ecosystems and the extinction of species. In this book he makes a persuasive case for an interreligious dialogue that can better confront the environmental problems of the twenty-first century. These erudite and keenly sympathetic essays represent Berry's best work, covering such issues as human beings' modern alienation from nature and the possibilities of future, regenerative forms of religious experience. Asking that we create a new story of the universe and the emergence of the Earth within it, Berry resituates the human spirit within a sacred totality.

Pages : 251
Book Description
"A devastating attack upon the dominance of atheism in science today." Giovanni Fazio, Senior Physicist, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics The debate over the ultimate source of truth in our world often pits science against faith. In fact, some high-profile scientists today would have us abandon God entirely as a source of truth about the universe. In this book, two professional astronomers push back against this notion, arguing that the science of today is not in a position to pronounce on the existence of God—rather, our notion of truth must include both the physical and spiritual domains. Incorporating excerpts from a letter written in 1615 by famed astronomer Galileo Galilei, the authors explore the relationship between science and faith, critiquing atheistic and secular understandings of science while reminding believers that science is an important source of truth about the physical world that God created.

Core of the Universe

Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
How often are love and sex on your mind? If you are like most people, your answer would be, "All the time," or "At least once an hour." And yet too often, sexual relations end up causing disappointment and despair. Why is it that so many of us find ourselves unfulfilled in the area of sex? Core of the Universe: God's Vision for Love, Sex, and Intimacy, published by High Noon International, unleashes intoxicating new ideas about love and sex. Relying on Holy Scripture and the words of Rev. and Mrs. Sun Myung Moon, Core of the Universe introduces ideas such as: -- God took great care in creating Adam and Eve, but He spent the most time and effort in the creation of their sexual organs. -- Sexual organs are the "core of the universe" because they open the door to true love, life, and lineage. -- Married couples are intended to engage in love and sex for their entire adult lives. -- God longs to be with husbands and wives as they kiss and caress each other and enter the throes of becoming "one flesh." Core of the Universe is designed as a family guide, suitable for singles, newlyweds, married couples, and parents looking for God-centered sex education materials for their children. It offers new insights on the value of purity before marriage and intimacy after marriage. One of High Noon's core missions is to help men and women develop their sexual integrity. This book has several chapters on sexual recovery and how to stop a porn habit. The book has six sections: Core of the Universe, God's Design for Sex, Conjugal Love, Absolute Sex, The Fall, and Restoration. Each has chapters that feature thought-provoking passages, "Making It Real" segments, and discussion questions. "We are confident that this book has something for you regardless of your stage in life," High Noon authors say. "It can help you develop sexual integrity and prepare you for your future Marriage Blessing for those who are single. Married couples can find inspiration to create a more beautiful and enriching relationship. Parents can be empowered to guide their children toward healthy sexuality. When we understand the full measure of what God intended us to experience as husband and wife, we can create blessed couples that radiate with joy and change the world with love."
