Sinopse

An epic of Israel from its founding to the Six-Day War by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author: “Full of excitement.” —Entertainment Weekly From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Winds of War and The Caine Mutiny, this saga spans from 1948 to 1967, the early decades of the state of Israel as it struggles for its life, outmatched and surrounded by enemies—the first of the two-part epic that concludes with The Glory.   Zev Barak, Sam Pasternak, Don Kishote, and Benny Luria are all officers in the Israeli army caught up in the sweep of history, fighting the desperate desert skirmishes and meeting the larger-than-life personalities that shaped Israel’s fight for independence. The four heroes and the women they love weave a compelling tapestry of individual destinies through a grand recounting of one nation’s battle against the odds. “Much of the dialogue is witty; the descriptions of back-channel diplomacy between the United States and Israel are fascinating and convincing.” —The New York Times Book Review “Solid historical research . . . fictional characters of Wouk’s own invention rub shoulders with real-life historical figures like David Ben Gurion [and] Moshe Dayan.” —The Christian Science Monitor “Rich and satisfying . . . deftly portrays the human face of inhuman conflict.” —The Plain Dealer “An engrossing and often moving tale.” —Publishers Weekly

It isn’t until he teams up with Sarah Weintraub, the ambitious but haunted neurobiologist, that a far deeper secret unfolds. Utilizing the latest discoveries in brain research and quantum physics, the two carefully wind their way through a treacherous maze of human greed and supernatural encounters that are both legitimate and counterfeit -- until they finally discover the astonishing truth about Brandon Martus.

    Following in the footsteps of TAN Books’ powerful 2019 release Sermons in Times of Crisis comes this illuminating work by Church historian Fr. David Vincent Meconi.Encyclicals in Time of Crisis explores five magisterial teachings released at a pivotal time in the history of the Church and the world, when great peril and global ills threatened the Body of Christ. After an insightful review on the history and nature of encyclicals and how they should be received by the faithful, Father Meconi dives into five influential papal documents that confronted the spirit of the world, providing a short biography on the men who wrote them, the historical context in which they were written, and how they clarified Church teaching on the most pressing cultural issues, including:Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum aiding the plight of the working class during the industrialization of the late nineteenth century;Pius XII’s Mystici Corporis calling the human family back to their original unity in Christ during the bloodshed of World War II;John’s XXIII’s Pacem in Terris, dubbed the Church’s “immortal encyclical” by Benedict XVI, warning us during the nuclear age of our destructive tendencies and the thirst for power;Paul VI’s brave promulgation in Humanae Vitae of the Church’s teaching on human sexuality and the sanctify of life at the height of the sexual revolution;John Paul II’s Veritatis Splendor championing the Lord of all Truth during the moral relativism that plagued the world at the turn of the twenty-fist century.With each of these documents, the man sitting on the Chair of Peter sought to guide, teach, and support a flock wandering in the treacherous hills of the world, and offer a transformative encounter with Jesus Christ as the antidote to the world’s problems.Encyclicals in Times of Crisis shows how the Church serves as the voice of Christ, a defender and protector of His truth. It is at once a sweeping historical tour of the last century as well as a succinct guide to understanding the Church’s most profound teachings.

    There's a cost to being a certain kind of strong.When it comes to difficult circumstances, we’ve all heard the platitudes: “No pain, no gain.” “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” But if we spend our lives trying to be “the strong one,” we become exhausted, burned-out, and disconnected from our truest selves.What if it were different? Could there be a different way to be strong? Could strength mean more than pushing on and pushing through pain, bearing every heavy burden on our own?
