Sinopsis

In "Mistakes of Moses," Robert Green Ingersoll presents a compelling critique of the biblical figure, challenging established religious doctrines through a rational lens. This work exemplifies Ingersoll's distinctive literary style, characterized by eloquent prose and incisive wit, as he navigates the intersection of religion, morality, and human experience. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century America, a period marked by rising secularism and intellectual inquiry, Ingersoll dares to question the veracity of the Scriptures in a way that both informs and provokes thoughtful discourse, inviting readers to reconsider traditional narratives surrounding Moses and the foundations of faith. Ingersoll, a prominent orator and advocate for freethought, was deeply influenced by the Enlightenment ideals of reason and scientific inquiry throughout his career. As one of the most celebrated agnostics of his era, he utilized his keen intellect and personal experiences—including the loss of his loved ones—to drive home his conviction that belief should be founded on evidence rather than dogma. "Mistakes of Moses" represents a culmination of his challenges to ecclesiastical authority and societal norms, reflecting his broader philosophy that promotes inquiry over blind faith. This thought-provoking treatise is highly recommended for those seeking a deeper understanding of religious critiques and the evolution of secular thought. Whether you're a scholar of religious studies, a seeker of truth, or simply curious about the interplay of faith and reason, Ingersoll's incisive analysis provides a timely, relevant examination that resonates with contemporary debates over morality, belief, and the human condition.

You Are a Tree - And Other...

Sometimes we describe ourselves as trees. When we're thriving, we speak of being rooted and fruitful, in a good season. When we struggle, we might describe ourselves as withering, cut off from friendship and the world. These ways of describing ourselves matter because they shape the ways we live. 
 
 
 
But in a world dominated by efficiency, we have begun to use more unforgiving metaphors. We speak of ourselves as computers: we process things, we recharge. In doing so, we come to expect of ourselves an exhausting, relentless productivity. 
 
 
 
You Are a Tree examines how the metaphorical descriptions we use in everyday life shape the way we think, pray, and live. Weaving together meditations on our common human experiences, poetry, Scripture, and the Christian tradition, Joy Marie Clarkson explores how metaphors help us understand things like wisdom, security, love, change, and sadness. 
 
 
 
This book invites you to pay attention—to your experiences, and to the words you use to describe them. That attention reveals a richly layered and meaningful world, a refreshing perspective that nurtures wonder, gratitude, and hope.

In his illustrious life, Saint Sebastian was the senior commanding officer of the elite forces for the greatest military power on the planet—the Roman Empire. By his glorious death, he became a commander in the greatest military power in the universe—the communion of saints of the Roman Catholic Church. 
Throughout the Church’s history, countless martyrs have offered their lives to Christ rather than deny Him. One of the most revered is Saint Sebastian, and for this, his name appears in the Roman Canon. A native of Milan, Saint Sebastian was the primus pilus, the senior centurion of elite soldiers in the Roman army who commanded eight hundred of the best soldiers in the world’s greatest military at the time. Taking the same ethic for the spiritual battle as he did for the empire’s battles, Saint Sebastian worked tirelessly and inconspicuously to strengthen other Christians, especially during the cruel persecutions and martyrdoms of the third century. 
The heroic examples of Saint Sebastian and his companions inspired others to follow the Lamb of God, even to the point of death, giving their lives as holocausts to the one, true living God rather than worship devils. It is only fitting that another great saint from Milan, Saint Ambrose, detailed the courage and fidelity of these brave soldiers. A Tale of Death and Glory will compel you to stay firm in your faith amidst the growing threats of persecution from secular authorities and to seek heaven with renewed vigor, for “this earthly life passes quickly, like a fleeting dream.”
