Beschreibung

"Najaf Sacred Shrine" explores the historical and religious significance of Najaf, Iraq, a city central to Shia Islam, focusing on the Imam Ali Shrine. The book traces Najaf's evolution from an ancient burial site to a prominent center of Shia scholarship and pilgrimage. It emphasizes the shrine's dual role as a physical structure and a symbol of Shia identity, challenging simplistic views of religious sites. The book details the architectural and artistic elements of the Imam Ali Shrine, exploring their symbolic meanings within Shia theology. It also examines religious practices, such as pilgrimage and mourning rituals, associated with the shrine, highlighting Najaf's enduring impact on Shia thought. The study uses diverse sources, including historical chronicles and architectural surveys, to provide a comprehensive understanding of Najaf's place in Islamic History. The book progresses chronologically, from Najaf's origins through its development and its current role as a vital center for Shia Muslims, offering a nuanced perspective on Najaf's importance.

    Whoever neglects the second coming of Christ has only a mutilated gospel, for the Bible teaches us not only of the death and sufferings of Christ, but also of His return to reign in honor and glory. His second coming is mentioned and referred to over three hundred times. There is hardly any church that does not make a great deal of baptism, yet in all of Paul's epistles, baptism is spoken of only thirteen times, while he speaks about the return of our Lord fifty times; and yet the church has had very little to say about it. The devil does not want us to see this truth, for nothing would wake up the church so much. The moment a man realizes that Jesus Christ is coming back again to receive His followers to Himself, this world loses its hold upon that man. Gas prices, technology innovations, and the stock market are of much less consequence to him then. His heart is free, and he looks for the blessed appearing of His Lord, who, at His coming, will take him into His blessed kingdom. Are you watching and ready for Christ’s return for His bride? Are you occupied with the work He has given you to do in His kingdom here on earth, so that you may have a reward when He comes?

    While the Bible is enough to take us to heaven, knowing history helps us live more wisely on our way. 
     
     
     
    George Orwell observed in Nineteen Eighty-Four that those who pay attention to history have the potential to influence the future. Stuck in the Present offers a grounding in historical consciousness that allows us to better navigate the daily bombardment of information. Amnesia about the past makes us vulnerable to the shackles of modern-day hucksters who try to convince us that the present is all that matters. 
     
     
     
    With wit and grace, Moore encourages listeners to avoid common historical fallacies and better understand the significance of the past. Through interviews conducted with leading historians, Moore invites listeners to better understand relevant topics like the living legacy of the Puritans, slavery and the Civil War, and the current struggles for Civil Rights. Stuck in the Present motivates listeners to be lifelong learners of history. By doing so, we are enriched and better equipped to engage the complexities of our world.

    Mathematical Devotionals serves as a guide to connect Christianity with mathematics through a year's worth of inspirational prompts and meditations. Each devotional is self-contained, including scripture verses and an image. The devotionals fall into four categories: 
    · Mathematical connections to Christianity 
    · Semi-biographical devotionals of Christian mathematicians 
    · Devotionals based on quotes either by a mathematician or about mathematics 
    · A few devotionals using logical reasoning as a form of Christian apologetics 
    The devotionals use mathematics, statistics, computer science, and even occasionally stray into the other science areas to provide a variety of engaging connections to Christianity. The book is intended to show how mathematics and other scientific fields should be considered complementary to Christianity rather than adversarial. 
    About the Author: 
    Dale K. Hathaway has been a faculty member, department chair, and recently selected as the Associate Dean for the Martin D. Walker School of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) at Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais, Illinois 
    since 1989. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Boston University. Mathematically, he has a passion for finding and presenting "Birthday Problem" connections and, as a Christian, he loves finding ways to connect his profession with his faith.

    Based on the New Testament book of 1 Timothy, these 30 daily devotions include Scripture, prayers, and actionable ideas for men who want to grow in spiritual leadership and become truly courageous men of God.   This in-depth 30-day devotional and Bible study helps men grow more courageous in their role as spiritual leaders in their families, workplaces, and churches as they listen to the apostle Paul mentor his protégé Timothy. Timothy was known for being timid, but Paul—one of the greatest church leaders of the first century— spoke the truth into this young man, giving him courage to be a leader.   In 1 Timothy: A Strong Man Is Courageous, Vince Miller explains how Timothy lived in the metropolis of Ephesus, where Paul had planted a church years before. This church had fallen into doctrinal and organizational disrepair, and now Paul wanted Timothy to get the church back on track.   Every devotion in 1 Timothy includes a reflection from Vince drawn from Paul’s words, insights from other biblical books, and ideas for applying Paul’s advice to your own situation. As Vince will show you, God uses mentoring relationships for His glory on our journey to becoming spiritual leaders and learners.
