Beschreibung

In "Westminster Sermons with a Preface," Charles Kingsley presents a collection of sermons that reflect his deep-seated convictions about faith, morality, and social justice. Written in the mid-19th century, Kingsley's prose demonstrates a blend of poetic language and fervent oratory, aiming to engage both the intellect and the emotions of his audience. The sermons explore themes of resurrection, the nature of Christ, and the vital interplay between religion and everyday life, all within the context of a rapidly industrializing society, thereby situating Kingsley within the broader Victorian literary and theological landscape, where religion was often contested and redefined. Charles Kingsley (1819-1875), a noted cleric, historian, and novelist, was significantly influenced by the social changes of his time, particularly those arising from the Industrial Revolution. His commitment to social reform, evident in his advocacy for the working class and critique of social injustices, informed his theological perspectives. Kingsley's diverse career—as a parish priest and author of children's literature—reflects an author dedicated to bridging the divide between artistic expression and moral guidance, seeking to inspire transformation through faith. "Westminster Sermons with a Preface" is not just a collection of religious discourse; it is an urgent call for introspection and action that resonates with contemporary and timeless issues alike. Readers seeking insight into the intersection of faith and social responsibility, as well as those interested in Victorian attitudes toward morality, will find this volume both enlightening and compelling.

    How do you rebuild your life after it falls apart?
    Catastrophic events often feel like the end of the world. When we feel like we have nothing left, we sometimes wish for our own end too. Yet God keeps waking us up every morning—a sign that God wants us to keep living when our world ends. We must find our way to the new life that awaits us on the other side of loss. But how?
    Dawn Sanders has traveled this path before and lived to tell the tale—not once but twice. After a divorce and then the sudden death of her second husband, Dawn discovered a buried treasure in Genesis 1: God's process for creating new life out of chaos. In When Your World Ends, Dawn digs deep into the creation story and unearths a seven-step process by which God brings us out of the void and into new beginnings. With her unique perspective, authenticity, and courage, Dawn meets those who are starting over and guides us into renewed hope.

    This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 6 by Edward Greenly, 'Buddhist Aids To Daily Conduct' found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. I, narrated by Christa Michel. 
     
    Excerpt: 
    ...The first thing to be observed is that Buddhism does not make what we may perhaps call a “frontal attack” upon evil. There is in it no “commandment,” no “thou shalt” or “thou shalt not,” but merely an “it is good to” or “it is not good to:” and that always for the reason “such and such a thing helps or hinders sorrow’s ceasing.” 
     
    Again, the system being not faith but knowledge, evil is, in its eyes, not “wickedness,” but a “not-understanding,” a mental blindness, a failure to see things as they really are. The remedy, then, evidently, must be “right understanding,” sane and unclouded mental vision, a coming to see things as they really are....

    A Close Look at the Complex Emotions of Christ
    In the search to understand the deity of Christ, Christians might overlook what the Bible reveals about his humanity. Did Jesus really feel emotions? What grieved him? What delighted him? How did Jesus—fully human and fully God—react to the world and people around him? Throughout Scripture, Jesus displays a range of emotions that can help believers understand him more intimately.
    In The Emotional Life of Our Lord, theologian B. B. Warfield explains how Christ's complex emotions and personality proved his humanity. It was necessary for Christ to be born in the likeness of mankind to bear their griefs, carry their sorrows, take their infirmities, and ultimately redeem their lives. In this encouraging book, readers learn to see Christ as a compassionate Savior through his sinless expressions of emotions—from righteous anger to abiding love.
