This delightful rhyming book introduces Catholic children to the Blessed Virgin Mary in a fun and simple way-through her clothes!

Over the centuries, Our Lady has visited the people of Earth many times. On each of these occasions she has dressed very differently.

Living by Faith
Author: Oswald Bayer
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802839879
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
"Living by faith" is much more than a general Christian precept; it is the fundamental posture of believers in a world rife with suffering and injustice. In this penetrating reflection on the meaning of "justification," Oswald Bayer shows how this key religious term provides a comprehensive horizon for discussing every aspect of Christian theology, from creation to the end times. Inspired by and interacting with Martin Luther, the great Christian thinker who grappled most intensely with the concept of justification, Bayer explores anew the full range of traditional dogmatics (sin, redemption, eschatology, and others), placing otherwise complex theological terms squarely within their proper milieu -- everyday life. In the course of his discussion, Bayer touches on such deep questions as the hidden nature of God, the hope for universal justice, the problem of evil, and -- one of the book's most engaging motifs -- Job's daring lawsuit with God.

Precious Gem in the Tabernacle

ISBN: 9781583630679
Category : Tabernacle
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
Nowhere in the Bible is there such a detailed picture of the LORD Jesus Christ than is found in the Mosaic Tabernacle. Among all the books written by Reverend Hicks, none is as important or as far-reaching in influence as this book, for it presents the Stature, the Image, the Perfection of the Son of God that all believers in Jesus Christ must strive to attain. The Mosaic Tabernacle is God's blueprint of His Only Begotten Son in Whom God put all Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge. By studying the types and shadows of all that God put in the first Tabernacle, and also by studying the earthly ministry of the High Priest, we gain a greater understanding of the heavenly things that are found in the Living Tabernacle of the LORD Jesus Christ, the second and more perfect Tabernacle, and His ministry. He is our spiritual High Priest, after the eternal order of Melchizedek, and He is the most Precious Gem that God ever gave to mankind. Thousands of this book are in print. It has been translated into many languages so that its message reaches around the world to acquaint people with Jesus in a greater way. It is also the most detailed study of the literal Mosaic Tabernacle in print.

The Betrayal of Faith
Author: Emma Anderson
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674296494
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Emma Anderson uses one man's compelling story to explore the collision of Christianity with traditional Native religion in colonial North America. Pierre-Anthoine Pastedechouan was born into a nomadic indigenous community of Innu living along the St. Lawrence River in present-day Quebec. At age eleven, he was sent to France by Catholic missionaries to be educated for five years, and then brought back to help Christianize his people. Pastedechouan's youthful encounter with French Catholicism engendered in him a fatal religious ambivalence. Robbed of both his traditional religious identity and critical survival skills, he had difficulty winning the acceptance of his community upon his return. At the same time, his attempts to prove himself to his people led the Jesuits to regard him with increasing suspicion. Suspended between two worlds, Pastedechouan ultimately became estranged--with tragic results--from both his native community and his missionary mentors. An engaging narrative of cultural negotiation and religious coercion, Betrayal of Faith documents the multiple betrayals of identity and culture caused by one young man's experiences with an inflexible French Catholicism. Pastedechouan's story illuminates key struggles to retain and impose religious identity on both sides of the seventeenth-century Atlantic, even as it has a startling relevance to the contemporary encounter between native and non-native peoples.
