Sinossi

"Faith Across Time" explores the captivating journey of religious belief, charting the shift from ancient polytheism to modern monotheism. It examines how early societies used mythology to explain their world, and how philosophical thought later challenged and reshaped these traditional beliefs. The study emphasizes that the transition wasn't just about reducing the number of gods; it was a profound change in humanity's understanding of its place in the cosmos.

 
The book journeys chronologically, beginning with the diverse pantheons of ancient religions and their associated rituals. It then transitions to the rise of philosophical critiques, setting the stage for the emergence of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Examining the theological innovations and cultural impact of these monotheistic faiths, the book concludes by considering the ongoing evolution of religious traditions in the face of secularism and interfaith dialogue.

 
The book offers a unique perspective by emphasizing the interplay between philosophical ideas and historical circumstances in shaping religious change.

Death on a Distant Frontier - A...

Charles Whiting

By September 1944 the Germany army in France had been decimated and survivors were streaming back to the Reich. The British SAS commanders were clearing the way for the American armies of George S. Patton, Alexander Patch, and Courtney Hodges. By the afternoon of September 11, 1944, men of the US 5th Armored Division penetrated the poorly defended Siegfried Line. Yet just when the Rhine was ripe for the taking General Dwight D. Eisenhower ordered all further advances to be halted. Could combination of American forces supported by the British SAS have crossed the Rhine and thrust into the heart of Germany in the autumn of 1944? Did Eisenhower's rigid adherence to his strategy delay the end of the war by several months and cause thousands of men to lose their lives during the Battle of the Bulge? 
 
 
 
Death on a Distant Frontier is a hard-hitting reappraisal of Eisenhower's tactics. Through extensive research Charles Whiting shines a light on the conflicts between the various generals and explores how Eisenhower conducted the war to ensure that his insiders reaped the glory of being the first American army to cross the Rhine. As a veteran of this campaign, Whiting was a witness to the turmoil that reigned during this period, yet through his fast-paced narrative and informed analysis he is able to provide vivid insight into this much-overlooked period of WWII.

He applies classic sociological theory on "the stranger" to matters of faith and social justice, showing that an identity in Christ frees us to love strangers as neighbors and friends.
