This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is twenty-four years since the First Crusaders conquered Jerusalem. Robert of Bures is a young knight whose father rose to power and prosperity in the new Crusader kingdom, and whose uncle died in battle with the Saracens. Nothing matters more to him than defending the Holy Sepulcher, the tomb of Jesus Christ, more sacred than any shrine in Christendom. Robert has been a trusted retainer to Baldwin II, King of Jerusalem, a veteran of the First Crusade who now rules the beleaguered Christian outpost in the Holy Land, but his friendship with the King's daughter, the beautiful and headstrong Princess Melisende, is growing unfittingly close. In Aleppo, the Turkish warlord Balak has raised a vast Saracen army and promises to drive the Christians into the sea. King Baldwin II is short of men and funds, yet his faith in God in unshakable, and he inspires passionate loyalty in his troops. His daughter Melisende feels the weight of the future pressing down upon her, for her father has no son, and she is heir to a Kingdom that her people believe would be better inherited by a warrior prince. Why Does the Heathen Rage? explores a magnificent but rarely examined chapter in Crusades history. The Kingdom of Jerusalem is young, and beset from all sides with enemies. In the face of unending trials, King Baldwin II and his knights fight with zeal, ready to die for the city that Christ made sacred with his blood: Jerusalem.

Book Synopsis How the Nations Rage by : Jonathan Leeman
Download or read book How the Nations Rage written by Jonathan Leeman and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the church move forward in unity amid such political strife and cultural contention? As Christians, we’ve felt pushed to the outskirts of national public life, yet even within our congregations we are divided about how to respond. Some want to strengthen the evangelical voting bloc. Others focus on social justice causes, and still others would abandon the public square altogether. What do we do when brothers and sisters in Christ sit next to each other in the pews but feel divided and angry? Is there a way forward? In How the Nations Rage, political theology scholar and pastor Jonathan Leeman challenges Christians from across the spectrum to hit the restart button by shifting our focus from redeeming the nation to living as a nation already redeemed rejecting the false allure of building heaven on earth while living faithfully as citizens of a heavenly kingdom letting Jesus’ teaching shape our public engagement as we love our neighbors and seek justice When we identify with Christ more than a political party or social grouping, we can return to the church’s unchanging political task: to become the salt and light Jesus calls us to be and offer the hope of his kingdom to the nations.
Book Synopsis Giving the Devil His Due by : Jessica Hooten Wilson
Download or read book Giving the Devil His Due written by Jessica Hooten Wilson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flannery O'Connor and Fyodor Dostoevsky shared a deep faith in Christ, which compelled them to tell stories that force readers to choose between eternal life and demonic possession. Their either-or extremism has not become more popular in the last fifty to a hundred years since these stories were first published, but it has become more relevant to a twenty-firstt-century culture in which the lukewarm middle ground seems the most comfortable place to dwell. Giving the Devil His Due walks through all of O'Connor's stories and looks closely at Dostoevsky's magnum opus The Brothers Karamazov to show that when the devil rules, all hell breaks loose. Instead of this kingdom of violence, O'Connor and Dostoevsky propose a kingdom of love, one that is only possible when the Lord again is king.

Book Synopsis Dostoevsky's Incarnational Realism by : Paul J. Contino
Download or read book Dostoevsky's Incarnational Realism written by Paul J. Contino and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-08-17 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Paul Contino offers a theological study of Dostoevsky’s final novel, The Brothers Karamazov. He argues that incarnational realism animates the vision of the novel, and the decisions and actions of its hero, Alyosha Fyodorovich Karamazov. The book takes a close look at Alyosha’s mentor, the Elder Zosima, and the way his role as a confessor and his vision of responsibility “to all, for all” develops and influences Alyosha. The remainder of the study, which serves as a kind of reader’s guide to the novel, follows Alyosha as he takes up the mantle of his elder, develops as a “monk in the world,” and, at the end of three days, ascends in his vision of Cana. The study attends also to Alyosha’s brothers and his ministry to them: Mitya’s struggle to become a “new man” and Ivan’s anguished groping toward responsibility. Finally, Contino traces Alyosha’s generative role with the young people he encounters, and his final message of hope.
Book Synopsis The Scandal of Holiness by : Jessica Hooten Wilson
Download or read book The Scandal of Holiness written by Jessica Hooten Wilson and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we become better people? Initiatives such as New Year's resolutions, vision boards, thirty-day plans, and self-help books often fail to compel us to live differently. We settle for small goals--frugal spending, less yelling at the kids, more time at the gym--but we are called to something far greater. We are created to be holy. Award-winning author Jessica Hooten Wilson explains that learning to hear the call of holiness requires cultivating a new imagination--one rooted in the act of reading. Learning to read with eyes attuned to the saints who populate great works of literature moves us toward holiness, where God opens up a way of living that extends far beyond what we can conjure for ourselves. Literature has the power to show us what a holy life looks like, and these depictions often scandalize even as they shape our imagination. As such, careful reading becomes a sort of countercultural spiritual discipline. The book includes devotionals, prayers, wisdom from the saints, and more to help individuals and groups cultivate a saintly imagination. Foreword by Lauren F. Winner.

Book Synopsis Flannery O'Connor's Why Do the Heathen Rage? by : Jessica Hooten Wilson
Download or read book Flannery O'Connor's Why Do the Heathen Rage? written by Jessica Hooten Wilson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When celebrated American novelist and short story writer Flannery O'Connor died at the age of 39 in 1964, she left behind an unfinished third novel titled Why Do the Heathen Rage? Scholarly experts uncovered and studied the material, deeming it unpublishable. It stayed that way for 40 years. Until now. For the past 10-plus years, award-winning author Jessica Hooten Wilson has explored the 378 pages of typed and handwritten material of the novel--transcribing pages, organizing them into scenes, and compiling everything to provide a glimpse into what O'Connor might have planned to publish. This book is the result of Hooten Wilson's work. In it, she introduces O'Connor's novel to the public for the first time and imagines themes and directions O'Connor's work might have taken. Including illustrations and an afterword from noted artist Steve Prince (One Fish Studio), the book unveils scenes that are both funny and thought-provoking, ultimately revealing that we have much to learn from what O'Connor left behind.

Book Synopsis Why Do the Heathen Rage? by : Ayodeji Awe
Download or read book Why Do the Heathen Rage? written by Ayodeji Awe and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do the Heathen Rage? is a perplexity that presents a melting pot of the supernatural and the natural. Regarding this monumental collision of Donald Trump and the Left, the celestial teleprompter displays the central insight that whenever the son of man sights the serpent, he goes after its head while the serpent in return pursues his heels. It's a dog fight. The God factor in Trump coupled with the imposing octagonal causation of hatred no doubt conspicuously prime-timed him, for which the Heathen (the cartel of the Democrats and the Liberal Mainstream Press) could not resist going after him like in a mad vengeance. But God is unequivocally committed to His own agenda for which Trump is a major character. He therefore zeroes his eyes on the detractors, calls them out for their atrocities, warns them to repent and possibly fall in line. He further embraces the supporters, encouraging them to keep the faith, stand tall and kneel only to Almighty God. They must keep up with support of the President and return him to the White House in November 2020, that the good works in progress may continue. Finally He prophesies an assurance to America as a nation that He will not renege on his covenant with the Pilgrim forefathers. Ultimately Coronovirus wears off, the experiential peace of God returns ushering in normalcy while America remains an icon and a place most coveted and sought on earth.
