Book Synopsis St. Paul's by : Lecturer in Modern British History Arthur Burns
Download or read book St. Paul's written by Lecturer in Modern British History Arthur Burns and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present St Paul's Cathedral, Christopher Wren's masterpiece, is the fourth religious building to occupy the site. Its location in the heart of the capital reflects its importance in the English church while the photographs of it burning during the Blitz forms one of the most powerful and familiar images of London during recent times. This substantial and richly illustrated study, published to mark the 1,400th anniversary of St Paul's, presents 42 scholarly contributions which approach the cathedral from a range of perspectives. All are supported by photographs, illustrations and plans of the exterior and interior of St Paul's, both past and present. Eight essays discuss the history of St Paul's, demonstrating the role of the cathedral in the formation of England's church and state from the 7th century onwards; nine essays examine the organisation and function of the cathedral during the Middle Ages, looking at, for example, the arrangement of the precinct, the tombs, the Dean's household during the 15th century, the liturgy and the archaeology. The remaining papers examine many aspects of Wren's cathedral, including its construction, fittings and embellishments, its estates and income, music and rituals, its place in London, its library, its role in the book trade and its reputation.
Book Synopsis Macao's Church of Saint Paul by : Cesar Guillen-Nuñez
Download or read book Macao's Church of Saint Paul written by Cesar Guillen-Nuñez and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Macao's Ruins of St. Paul (correct name Church of Madre de Deus) is the only example of Baroque art and architecture in China. This beautifully illustrated book explores anew the now vanished but once renowned Church, as well as the Jesuit university college of which it was part. Both Church and College were destroyed by fire in 1835. From the perspective of the history of art they have remained poorly explored. The author remedies this by imaginatively reconstructing their ground plans, architecture and decoration in the light of new information in original documents that he has found in archives and libraries in Europe and Macao. In his re-creation of the buildings, he illustrates and draws on the evidence of selected Jesuit buildings in Italy, Portugal, Spain and Portuguese India and considers the historical Counter-Reformation environment that eventually led to the College of Madre de Deus in China. The most recent art-historical findings on the Mannerist and Baroque art of the Jesuits in Europe and Iberian colonies are also taken into account. The author, who first identified the surviving façade of the Church as a retable-façadeƯƯƯƯ, an unusual type of Iberian and Latin American church façade resembling an altarpiece, brings his argument to its logical conclusion by relating it to the Church's plan and decoration. An extremely important aspect of the art promoted by the Jesuits, centring on the cult of passive martyrdom, is also candidly discussed. This book will enable the general public to better appreciate the Ruins and provides much of interest and value to scholars, students, architects, art museums and cultural organizations."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis The Bedrock of Christianity by : Justin Bass
Download or read book The Bedrock of Christianity written by Justin Bass and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can we all agree on some things about Jesus, regardless of our belief--or unbelief? Perhaps surprisingly, there is a lot upon which all scholars can agree. When surveying historical scholarship, there are certain truths about Jesus that Christians, agnostics, and skeptics must affirm. In The Bedrock of Christianity, Justin Bass shows how--regardless of one's feelings about Christianity--there lies a bedrock of truths about Jesus's life and ministry that are held by virtually all scholars of religion. Through an examination of each of these key facts, readers will encounter the unalterable truths upon which everyone can agree. Useful for both Christians and non-Christians alike, this study demonstrates what we can really know about the historical truth of Jesus' death and resurrection.
Download or read book Being Christian written by Rowan Williams and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this simple, beautifully written book Rowan Williams explores four essential components of the Christian life: baptism, Bible, Eucharist, and prayer. Despite huge differences in Christian thinking and practice both today and in past centuries, he says, these four basic elements have remained constant and indispensable for the majority of those who call themselves Christians. In accessible, pastoral terms Williams discusses the meaning and practice of baptism, the Bible, the Eucharist, and prayer, inviting readers to really think through the Christian faith and how to live it out. Questions for reflection and discussion at the end of each chapter help readers to dig deeper and apply Williams's insights to their own lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus’ final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with anticipation, danger, and the potential for great loss or great reward. Jesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His followers risked everything when they left behind their homes, or anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read these stories, finding new meanings and new challenges.

She shows us how the text raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader, and how we all face risk in our Christian experience. Entering the Passion of Jesus provides a rich and challenging learning experience for small groups and individual readers alike. The book is part of a larger six-week study that is perfect for Lent and includes a DVD, and a comprehensive Leader Guide. The book’s six chapters include: Jerusalem: Risking Reputation The Temple: Risking Righteous Anger Teachings: Risking Challenge The First Dinner: Risking Rejection The Last Supper: Risking the Loss of Friends Gethsemane: Risking Temptation
Book Synopsis Power of the Creed by : Mark Nauroth
Download or read book Power of the Creed written by Mark Nauroth and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This mystery is Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).What does it mean to believe in Jesus Christ? To be a Christian? Is it attending church? Memorizing scripture? Fighting culture wars? Doing good things? Or is there something more? What if believing in Jesus Christ meant identifying with him? What if it meant sharing in his birth, dying in his death, and rising with him to a new and glorious way of life? Christianity may not mean these things today, but once upon a time, it did. The first Christians didn't just go to church, or read the Bible, or vote for a particular political party. They lived the life of Jesus Christ before an unbelieving world-and their world changed because they changed. Now it's your turn. The hope of the gospel is that Christ can be formed in you and live through you, transforming both you and your world. In Power of the Creed, find out how through a fresh encounter with one of Christianity's oldest and best-kept secrets - the Nicene Creed. Whether you grew up reciting the Creed in church or have never heard it before, you will be empowered to live your faith, rise above temptation, and shine with the very image of Christ through this transformative book.
