Beschreibung

Winner of a honorable mention award in the popular presentation of the Catholic faith category from the Catholic Media Association. Do you question whether God really exists? Have you considered walking away from your faith because you’ve been hurt by someone in the Church or because you struggle with some of its teachings? Or maybe you’ve already left? Are you carrying around guilt for something you’ve done and don’t feel you are worthy of God’s love? Rebuilt Faith, written by Fr. Michael White and Tom Corcoran—authors of the bestselling book Rebuilt—proposes five simple steps to learn (or relearn) more about your Catholic faith and deepen your relationship with God.  In Rebuilt Faith, you will learn that rebuilding and renewing your faith starts with a nagging feeling that you want something more—more connectedness, more community, and more purpose. That’s the spark that leads to a flame that burns brightly around Jesus, the foundation of living and growing in faith.  The steps in Rebuilt Faith can be done in just ten minutes a day over forty days during your morning coffee, at lunchtime, or when you are relaxing in the evening. Each one includes a quotation from a saint, a reflection, questions to ponder, a prayer, and a scripture verse.  White and Corcoran organize the book around five steps that build on different aspects of Catholicism and are meant to be repeated:  serve—serve others and develop a servant’s heart;  give—giving reflects the character of God;  engage in Christian community—we need friends of faith to become more like Jesus;  practice prayer and the sacraments—by praying consistently and continually taking part in the sacraments, you will better connect with God; and  share your faith—having a heart for people who do not know Jesus and helping them in their faith journey will strengthen your own faith.     White and Corcoran have watched thousands of people in their parish in Timonium, Maryland, take these five steps and grow from seeing God primarily as an abstract idea into knowing him as a deeply loved partner who provides a far greater sense of purpose for living than they had ever known before.  Invest in yourself by taking your faith to the next level and allowing God to help you come to know his grace, favor, and loving kindness in a new and personal way. Not only will you strengthen your own connection to God but also the connection between him and the entire Body of Christ.

    The Bible can help us have better conversations about sexFor many of us, formation around sexuality was often marked by a lack of information and honest dialogue. The teaching we did receive was confusing at times, especially since secular and religious ideas about sexuality often seem at odds.These concerns can be especially acute for parents seeking to share healthy, faithful ideas about sexuality with their children. We know that abstinence-only sex education doesn’t stop risky behavior among teens and that purity culture leaves harmful legacies. Messages from outside the church walls seem to offer the simplest and safest way out of the conundrum—yet we also want our faith to sit right with our counsel on many issues, including sex. If we don’t endorse purity culture yet we still believe faith holds a role in sexuality, what might the Bible and Christian theology actually have to say to us today?Though the Bible is often quite vague on the whos, whens, wheres, and whats of sexuality, it does offer a beautiful image of the why: to know and share the love of God. In Intimate Conversations, scholar Susannah Larry considers how the Great Commandment to love God, neighbor, and self shapes our understanding of this part of our lives. As she explores what ideas to pass on to her children, she discovers a whole-bodied vision for Christian sexuality that is empowering, faithful, and life-giving. Rather than a rulebook or an encyclopedia, the Bible tells us a story of God’s desire for justice, reconciliation, and joy for all people. Grounded in Scripture and celebrating the goodness of human sexuality, Intimate Conversations will help adults reclaim the Bible as a resource for telling a joyful and holistic story about sexuality.

    We were created for more—more than mere flourishing, more than our self-improvement projects, more than our accomplishments. God created us to be connected and rooted in community.
    
    In this book, Christian Mungai, presents an African vision for what Christian living is. He explores a biblical concept that is often overlooked in our results-oriented Western society: that the people around us—from our kids to our parents, from our friends to our church community—are our true wealth. It is when we focus on people first through relationship building, God works in incredible ways. This is how we can live the victorious Christian life, fulfilling Christ's call to be witnesses for him.
    
    
    Christian Mungai, the global movement pastor at Mariner's Church, is part of the team that developed the influential Rooted curriculum based on how Christian's home church in Nairobi, Kenya was mentoring and discipling people. In this book, Christian dives into the biblical and discipleship concepts behind that curriculum that should ground every believer's life and outreach.
    
    
    You'll discover:
    
    - the power of taking the time to be with another person, cultivating relationships that can facilitate meaningful life-change
    - the importance of the biblical concept that every person reflects God's image and how that can shape our faith, life, and ministry
    - the way to become a change-agent and a catalyst, helping people become who Jesus calls them to be
    - how the international church can build bridges between its members in order to transform the world
    With this book, you will be re-energized and re-invigorated, ready to respond to God's call.

    The Tree of the Sephiroth may be considered an invaluable compendium of the secret philosophy which originally was the spirit and soul of Chasidism. The Qabbalah is the priceless heritage of Israel, but each year those who comprehend its true principles become fewer in number. The Jew of today, if he lacks a realization of the profundity of his people's doctrines, is usually permeated with that most dangerous form of ignorance, modernism, and is prone to regard the Qabbalah either as an evil to be shunned like the plague or as a ridiculous superstition which has survived the black magic of the Dark Ages. Yet without the key which the Qabbalah supplies, the spiritual mysteries of both the Old and the New Testament must remain unsolved by Jew and Gentile alike. 
    The Sephirothic Tree consists of ten globes of luminous splendor arranged in three vertical columns and connected by 22 channels or paths. The ten globes are called the Sephiroth and to them are assigned the numbers 1 to 10. The three columns are called Mercy (on the right), Severity (on the left), and, between them, Mildness, as the reconciling power. The columns may also be said to represent Wisdom, Strength, and Beauty, which form the triune support of the universe, for it is written that the foundation of all things is the Three. The 22 channels are the letters of the Hebrew alphabet and to them are assigned the major trumps of the Tarot deck of symbolic cards.
