Synopsis

This important essay by the French Catholic philosopher articulates the foundation for his influential interpretations of Thomas Aquinas. Known for his influential writings that brought fresh relevance to the work of Thomas Aquinas, Jacques Maritain was one of the most important Catholic philosophers of the twentieth century. Although An Essay on Christian Philosophy is not generally considered to be among his major works, it is, in a sense, the key to unlocking his massive synthesis of modern Thomism. This provocative essay reveals the inner springs of Maritain’s ideas concerning mankind’s relationship to God.  This lucid translation by Edward H. Flannery includes a glossary of technical terms, making it even more accessible for the general reader.

    A Christian case for natural burial
    The promises of the Christian gospel are never more precious or more beautiful than in the context of death and burial. And yet current burial practices in Western society are archaic and impersonal. They fail to confront us with the reality of death, and they make it harder to process death or to grieve properly.
    Kent Burreson and Beth Hoeltke have been teaching a Christian understanding of death and natural burial for many years. They argue that natural burial—laying the body into the earth in a way that allows it to decompose naturally—is not only better for the environment but is also a more accurate picture of Christian hope of the resurrection. Grounded in sound Christian teaching about death and burial, they advocate for natural burial and offer practical instructions for navigating the complex questions around burial practices.
    Lay Me in God's Good Earth is not only an immensely practical guide to natural burial; it is also an application of the hope of the resurrection to those grieving the loss of their loved ones.

    During times of distress, it is of paramount importance that people have the assurance that God exists. Even Christians need their faith to be bolstered and doubts eliminated when they face hardships of different kinds. 
    The trend towards unbelief in God is accelerating. According to a recent survey:Half of Americans now say they are not sure God exists.One third of Americans never go to church.Generation Z (born 1997 to more recently) are the most likely to have no religion at all. 
    Young people have their belief in God attacked at school, where evolution is taught as if it were an unchallenged scientifically proven fact. 
    The effects of unbelief in God can be seen in increasing social disorder and violence on the streets. A lack of fear of God is manifesting in looting of shops, setting fire to buildings and increased disobedience to the laws of the land in many western nations. 
    But can we know without doubt that God exists? And can we get to know God himself? The answer is “Yes”, we can know for sure that God exists, and who he is. 
    This book focuses on three proofs that God exists:BiologyFulfilled biblical prophecyMiraculous interventions 
    Any one of these is sufficient to show without doubt that God exists. Added together the three provide an ironclad assurance. 
    Get the audiobook “Does God Exist” and become equipped to overcome doubts. Build an unshakable foundation of belief that God really does exist!

    HE’LL STOP AT NOTHING TO PROTECT THOSE HE LOVES. NOTHING. 
    When a body washes up in the river outside of Eastbrooke, Deputy Police Chief Rob Carlton suspects foul play. 
    The mountains near Eastbrooke run to the coast and offer a perfect smuggling route. Not just for drugs, but for weapons and human trafficking. 
    Emma MacGowan, raised by missionary parents, is a primary school teacher and new to town. She might be lonely, but she’s steering clear of the handsome cop with a reputation for dating and dumping. 
    Until she witnesses a murder. 
    Then she has no choice but to trust him. Her life depends on it. And he needs her alive to convict the smugglers. 
    Thrust together in a situation neither foresaw, can they get past their prejudices and even learn to like each other. Perhaps even fall in love? 
    Can he prove to her he’s not the rogue she thought he was? 
    The Heroes of Eastbrooke series features clean, Christian, pulse-pounding romantic suspense in and around the picturesque town of Eastbrooke. Each book stands alone.

    ⭐ Another awesome book to lose yourself in. I love the adventure, the mystery, the love story, and the truth of His word Incorporated into the story. 
    ⭐ Romance and intrigue combined in one. There was never a moment in this story that I was not involved in the emotional drama the characters were living through. Whether worried for them, or thankful for the support from their friends and family, this story was riveting.

    In a world of war, terrorism, and other geopolitical threats to global stability, how should committed Christians honor Jesus Christ and his Word? How should Christians think and act when it comes to church-state relations, the preservation of order, the practice of just peacemaking, and the use of coercive force?
    In this volume in IVP Academic's Spectrum series, four contributors—experts in Christian ethics, political philosophy, and international affairs—offer the best of current Christian thinking on issues of war and peace. They present four distinct views:
    
    - Eric Patterson, just war view
    - Myles Werntz, nonviolence view
    - A. J. Nolte, Christian realist view
    - Meic Pearse, church historical view
    Each contributor makes a case for his own view and responds to the others, highlighting complexities and real-world implications of the various perspectives. Edited and with an introduction and conclusion by the philosopher Paul Copan, this book provides a helpful orientation to the key positions today.
    Spectrum Multiview Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing format.
