The monk and the knight -- the two quintessentially medieval European heroes -- were combined in the Knights Templar and in the other military orders founded in the era of the Crusades. With characteristic eloquence, Bernard of Clairvaux voices the cleric's view of knights, warfare, and the conquest of the Holy Land in five chapters on the knights' vocation.

From Monk to Modernity, Second Edition
Author: Dominic Kirkham
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532671997
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
After spending many years in a religious order, Dominic Kirkham describes how he was driven to meet the challenge of modern thinking, an exercise that has proved both freeing and frightening. He says this has been "something of a personal odyssey, which now spans a lifetime of over six decades and is still ongoing." He adds that "the presumption of the book is that this is of more than personal interest because the subject matter affects everyone; my personal journey will no doubt reflect that of many others." In a broad sweep from Neolithic times to the twenty-first century, he considers our human quest for meaning and a good life, and how we can engage in it today.

Book Description
An essential and succinct introduction to the culture, history, and practices of the world's second largest religion. Next to Christianity, Islam is the largest religion in the world. One out of every six people in the world is Muslim. Like Christianity, it's monotheistic (belief in one God), it has a holy text, and an ethical or religious law.

Beverley provides answers to questions many Christians have about Islam in this short and readable book. Islam clearly lays out responses to topics such as: What Muslims think about God, the world, and their place in it. How Muhammad established a religion that now stretches around the world. How different groups within Islam define Jihad. Why Palestine is important to Muslims. What roles women play in different Islamic communities. And how Christians should relate to Muslims. Features include: Glossary of terms related to Islam A list of Frequently Asked Questions for easy reference Topical bibliography for further study
