History And Politics Of Latin American Theology 1
$45.00This work explores the contribution of major Latin American theologians to the intellectual and pastoral discussion of Christian involvement in contemporary politics. Aguilar argues that within the Latin American context there has been a rediscovery of a fluid, dualistic, and sometimes contradictory relation between the practice of religion and the practice of politics. Christians in the Latin American context were forced to respond to a general crisis in politics, whereby their own beliefs, ritual practices, and way of life was pushed to the limit by human rights violations and absolutist forms of government. The Christian response was a confrontation against the state as was the case of Chile, or a dissenting silence, as was the case of Argentina. However, the historical relations between Church and state, Christian communities and secular powers, were inscribed in literary texts in Latin America. These texts expressed an archaeology of historical and theological memory.
Section 1 examines religion and politics within the ecclesial framework provided by Gustavo Gutierrez, Jon Sobrino, and Ronaldo Muoz. Section 2 explores the challenges to those authors by focusing on a more political critique of Christianity and society provided by Pablo Richard, Ernesto Cardenal, and Oscar Romero and section 3 examines challenges to the previous six authors by discussing religion and politics within the context of ecological theology, the feminist critique to biblical studies, and discussions on culture and the Gospel today in Leonardo Boff, Elsa Tamez, and Diego Irarrazaval.

America Youre Too Young To Die
$20.61The ruins of the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah have been located along the western shores of the Dead Sea. They stand there in stark contrast to the mountains around them. God preserved the huge ruins of white ash as a reminder that God’s Word, the Bible, is not a fairy tale to be taken lightly. His Word is literal and absolutely true. Does the discovery of the cities destroyed by a literal and torrential rain storm of burning sulfur pellets have any implication for a modern, end-time nation that flaunts its immorality and perversion? Will the tragic story of Sodom and Gomorrah ever be repeated? The answer to these questions appears to be a tragic and resounding yes! The ancient prophets of God spoke of a mighty, end-time nation that they referred to as “the daughter of Babylon.” According to the prophets, that youngest and most powerful of nations will one day experience the same tragic fate as Sodom and Gomorrah.

Life Within The Veil
$20.61Jesus suffered and died so that the veil of separation could be rent. No longer would we be separated from the Most Holy Place. No longer would we be separated from the fullness of the manifested presence of the lover of our soul. Now we could freely enter within. But this was not to be a place of visitation. This was to become our dwelling place. It would be in this place – in Him – that we would live and move and have our being. Tragically, we have spent centuries living outside the veil in a land so far beneath the fullness of our inheritance. But, “No more!” is the cry of our heavenly Father.

There Is More To The Secret
$16.99The Law of Attraction contends that one can have any health, wealth or relationship desired if the mind is trained to put out continual thoughts to attract it into one’s life. Although there is some truth to the fact that we tend to become what we think (the apostle Paul taught us that), the new-age representation of “individual as God” is a dangerous contention. In this companion book to the current media storm, Ed Gungor seeks to establish a more complete and accurate representation of the power of the mind by explaining the obvious role that the Almighty God plays in our lives with the power of the Gospel. This book is not written to attack recent publications but rather to correct their misguided advice while still speaking to the felt need that is causing millions to explore their pages.

At The Heart Of The Gospel
$22.99Suffering, while a part of the human condition, is a state of being we would rather ignore. L. Ann Jervis here presents a convincing argument that human suffering is worth considering and offers the words of Paul as proof. Paul’s insights into the predicament and significance of suffering provide the foundation for some of Christianity’s most profound and unique contributions to understanding human life. Examination of three of his letters “1 Thessalonians, Philippians, and Romans” reveals his important reflections on accepting the suffering of believers in light of a conviction that, while we suffer, we know there will come a time when, because God’s plan for creation does not include suffering, God will ultimately banish it. Consequently, believing sufferers are not victims of suffering. Jervis hopes that hearing Paul’s words on suffering in a fresh light may allow readers to be deeply marked, like the saints and shapers of Christianity, by the power of a gospel of which it is not necessary to be ashamed, precisely because it is not easy, but transformative.

Fear Of Beggars A Print On Demand Title
$26.99In the twenty-first century, the gap between the haves and have-nots is lengthening once again, and to American eyes, poverty is no longer limited to third-world countries. Yet often modern Christian thought on property is premised on the exclusion of the beggar from economic morality. Kelly Johnson asks the important question Why does Christian ethics so rarely tackle the question of whether to give to beggars? Examining both classical economics and Christian stewardship ethics as reaction to medieval mendicant debates, Johnson reveals both modern anxiety about dependence and humility and the importance of Christian attempts to re-imagine property relations in ways that integrate those qualities. Studying the rhetoric and thought of Christian thinkers, beggar saints, economists and others, Johnson places greatest emphasis on the life and work of Peter Maurin. Challenging and thought-provoking, The Fear of Beggars will expand what counts as a topic for Christian economic ethics into a richer, more complicated discussion.

Controversies In Political Theology
$35.99Controversies in Political Theology addresses the question of whether Christians should be struggling towards development or liberation. It explores the theologies of development and liberation, from their beginnings in the 1960s through their changes to the central arguments today. The contrasts are examined in the practice of faith-based aid agencies. The understanding of how to practice justice differs widely for development theology and liberation theology. Whilst the theology of development remain focused on the economic realm, on trade and consumption, the theology of liberation expands the discussion beyond the economic realm to deal with politics, race, gender and culture more generally. These different concepts of justice lead to very different actions in communities around the world. This book provides students with access to an in-depth view of these practices in a clear and concise context. The book looks not only at the theologies themselves but also how they came to emerge, and how they stand in contrast across the globe today.

Build Your Walls Guard Your Gates
$21.86The book of Nehemiah is a great story that has much to teach us about courage, leadership, faithfulness to God’s call and more, but can it really speak to us about sexual purity? Absolutely! Nehemiah provides a vivid word picture of God’s plan for purity in our lives. To unlock the metaphor, you only need a few simple keys: * Nehemiah represents Christ and the Word of God. * The temple represents your heart. * Jerusalem represents your mind. * The walls around Jerusalem represent your relationship with Christ. * The gates represent your eyes, ears and mouth, where information and images enter or exit your mind. By building your spiritual walls and guarding your eye, ear and mouth gates, you can overcome bondage to pornography and sexual sin.
