  Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton is a brilliant exploration of faith, reason, and the human condition. In this timeless work, Chesterton recounts his personal journey to Christian orthodoxy, presenting it not as a restrictive creed but as a vibrant and imaginative framework for understanding life's mysteries. With characteristic wit and paradox, he argues that Christianity uniquely balances the seemingly contradictory aspects of existence—freedom and order, wonder and logic, joy and sorrow. Chesterton critiques modern philosophies that seek to simplify or deconstruct reality, asserting that orthodoxy’s complexity reflects the richness of human experience. Through vivid prose and profound insights, Orthodoxy champions the intellectual depth and poetic beauty of traditional Christian beliefs, offering readers a compelling defense of faith as both rational and revolutionary.

  Get inside the head of one of the most influential musicians of our time with this collection of her most inspiring and revealing quotes. 
   
  The quotations in this book have been carefully curated from Taylor Swift’s numerous public statements—interviews, op-eds, social media posts, and more. It’s a comprehensive picture of her meteoric rise to the top, her ever-savvy business sense, and her increasingly forthright perspective on the music world and beyond. 
   
  Swift’s catchy, chart-topping songs have propelled her to become one of the bestselling musicians of all time. But in the more than fifteen years she’s been making music, she has also amassed enough power to buck the norms of an industry notorious for controlling the images of its often very young female artists. She’s stood up for herself and for other artists, championing their rights to fair royalties, and inspired tens of thousands of fans to register to vote. Swift’s achievements have earned her spots on both Forbes’s Most Powerful Women and Time’s 100 Most Influential People lists. Now, for the first time, you can find her most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one place.

  "In Advent we prepare for the coming of all Love." —Madeleine L'Engle 
   
   
   
  "At the birth of Jesus, an event of cosmic significance by which we humans still mark our calendars, the invisible and visible worlds come together." —Philip Yancey 
   
   
   
  "Help us to realize, as those who love and believe in you that we, too, are pregnant with Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit, and that day by day we are being enlarged." —Luci Shaw 
   
   
   
  The first Christmas sermon preserved in church history was preached by St. John Chrysostom in AD 386, in which he declared, "Behold a new and wonderful mystery!" In this volume, the Christian literary writers of the Chrysostom Society reflect on Advent and Christmastide as a bright and meaningful season of anticipation and glory. Through forty-two readings from the first Sunday of Advent through Epiphany, contributors prepare us in watchful waiting for the coming of Jesus. 
   
   
   
  We enter slowly so that the familiar can astonish us and become wondrous once again. 
   
   
   
  Jesus is born in Bethlehem. But not only there. He is also born in us, that we might bear his presence and impart his goodness to the world.
