Sinossi

In "Sketches of the Christian Life and Public Labors of William Miller," James White crafts a biographical narrative that delves into the life of William Miller, a pivotal figure in the 19th-century religious revivalist movement. The book meticulously combines historical documentation with a compelling literary style that oscillates between narrative and exposition, effectively illustrating the fervent spirituality and the theological convictions that defined Miller's ministry. White's work not only chronicles Miller's journey towards the development of the Adventist movement but also situates it within the broader context of Second Great Awakening, revealing the socio-religious dynamics of the time. James White, a prominent leader in the Adventist movement and a contemporary of Miller, draws from first-hand experiences and extensive research to convey the earnestness of Miller's mission. Influenced by his own spiritual journey and the explosive growth of religious fervor during this period, White's writings reflect an intimate understanding of the struggles and triumphs faced by early Adventists. His background as an active preacher and editor provides him with the insights necessary to capture Miller's impact on the American religious landscape. This book serves as an invaluable resource for scholars, theologians, and lay readers alike, providing a rich tapestry of historical context and personal narrative. Through White's engaging prose, readers will gain not only a deeper understanding of William Miller's significant, yet often contentious, role in American religious history but also an appreciation for the broader spiritual currents that shaped the era. A must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of faith and history.

    All of us will go through moments when we are forced to face up to life’s big questions. For some it is the reality of death – watching tragedies unfold around us. For others it is the wonder of life – marvelling at the birth of a baby, or the spectacle of a sunset. These moments provoke questions – about life and value, identity and meaning, society and the environment, love and relationships, justice and freedom, despair and hope. 
    In Making Sense of Life, Michael Ots honestly and carefully examines the questions that we all have. He unravels our desires and our dilemmas and makes the case that the Christian faith really does make the best sense of the things that matter most.

    THE RENAISSANCE TRILOGY – BOOK III – ENGLAND 
    - Its 1536; heyday of Henry VIII’s new world order and boon-time for the Tudor elites. The working poor endure what they must, even as their local institutions are plundered by an increasingly rapacious and centralised state. Many are growing rich, many are growing powerful, and many more are burnt for the ideas they hold. 
    - In Norfolk, far from the centers of power, England’s last monastery is mired in murder and political intrigue. Brother Pacificus and Simon the leper are hiding from a troubled past. But when a local family are arrested for heresy and treason, they help hide the children with an elderly eel-catcher on the marsh. As their fate becomes increasingly entwined with the children and their mother, other allegiances are spread thin, and their anonymity is threatened. 
    - After a second murder at the abbey, Pacificus falls under suspicion and so begins his own investigations. The children also begin to suspect that neither their parents, nor their protectors are quite what they seem. They too must adjust quickly; seeking their own identity in a world grown cold. 
    - And so, from the bloodied crypts of St Benet's to the brutal backstreets of London and Antwerp, these unlikely companions must risk betrayal and death to protect those they love. From the coarse woollens and shattered dreams of the Norfolk marsh, to the duels and jousts of the Tudor court, they must learn to flex every sinew and break every rule if they want to survive. From high treason in the north, to high seas smuggling in the south, from heartbreak to jailbreak; fire and sword, they must learn to hang together, lest they hang separately.
