Synopsis

The Mediterranean, both a sea and a theatre, has served throughout history as a fundamental crossroads for the political-religious dynamics and international tensions that characterize the various worlds, east and west, south and north, that meet in this basin. Starting from these premises, the present work examines - within a chronological span that goes from the conclusion of the Second World War to the end of Pius XII’s pontificate - the contribution offered by the Holy See and by Catholics from different national contexts in deciphering the role of the Mediterranean Sea within the wider global context. As such, it constitutes a reflection on this geographical space with its peculiar cultural, economic, political, and religious realities by highlighting the role played by the Mediterranean in the elaboration of visions and projects of civilization.
This work is the fruit of a wider research programme called Occidentes - Horizons and projects of civilization in the Church of Pius XII. It brings together the work of seven historians from different European Universities.

    If we desire to honor God in all we do, we need to be in his Book every day. Through the Bible, God offers us so much more wisdom for living and leading--and for every domain of life--than anything this world can ever give us. 
      
    That's why Hobby Lobby founder and CEO David Green wrote The Leader's Devotional. By sharing the biblical principles that are the foundation of his life and leadership, he challenges and encourages each of us to seek God's guidance for our lives, for our families, and for our organizations.   
      
    With Scripture, reflection questions, and a short prayer, each devotional hits on a topic that is close to the heart. Do you want to live and work according to God's plans, hear what he's saying to you, and put it into practice? Then this is the devotional for you.

    Surrendering Certainty - Hearing...

    Have you ever felt like God was prompting you to do something but questioned whether it was his voice? Instead of acting, you waited for another sign. What if God has already given us what we need to know if a word is from him? 
     
     
     
    Surrendering Certainty addresses a key misconception about God's voice: that it will tell what will happen tomorrow. We've mistaken God's voice in our lives for a means of obtaining knowledge instead of embracing its power to give us peace for today. Since the fall in the garden of Eden, humanity has carried the same deception that misled Eve. We think more information will give us more freedom. But if we look at Jesus's teachings, we that his direction was never intended to give us a roadmap. 
     
     
     
    We can trade the yoke of certainty we carry for a better one: Jesus's yoke. By focusing on three promises Jesus gave us in John 10, Surrendering Certainty shows a better way to live, empowered by God's Word instead of a false sense of security. With deep biblical insights, this book explores how to grow confidence that we can hear from God without second-guessing ourselves; embrace our ability to make decisions as one of the biggest means for growing our faith; and release our false sense of security in tomorrow and equip ourselves with promises that are guaranteed.

    “This is our challenge, our invitation: to tune, to heighten, to awaken our senses to the God who is already all around us, surrounding us, hemming us in, behind and before.” 
    Eroding our commonly-held and heavily-baked image of God as some kind of superhuman in the sky, ‘Exploring Elohim’s Embrace’ draws us towards the infinite trinitarian God who is three persons mutually indwelling, intimately enveloping and passionately embracing. 
    The God who is Love and Light and Breath. 
    Who is Beauty and Wisdom and Peace. 
    Relationship, Consciousness, Joy. 
    And a myriad more. 
    Clear and concise and packed with Biblical references, this beautifully poetic book offers innovative and moving insight into humanity’s unending, enduring exploration into who or what and where is an invisible yet omnipresent God? 
    Because, as Pete Atkinson writes in his preface: 
    "It feels scary, dangerous - not to mention impossible - for the finite to attempt to describe the infinite. 
    But it also feels exhilarating, liberating - not to mention necessary - to explore…"

    Believers today are facing a profound spiritual poverty—an ignorance of the women who shaped their faith and an incomplete understanding of the God those women faithfully served. The inspired writers of the Old Testament mention over one hundred women by name and countless others in passing. Yet, how many of us know the stories of these women and the God who wrote them? 
     
    There are the women who proclaimed the good news of God, prophesied truth to power, protected Israel from her enemies, relentlessly interceded for God to act, and passed along a living faith in the God who did. Each of these women and their stories find a place in God's redemptive plan for his creation. In Ancient Israel's Women of Faith, Claude Mariottini introduces listeners to a fresh reading of Scripture that takes seriously these stories. He challenges anachronistic, modern readings of the text by providing helpful contextual information, including nuances in the original language, histories of translation, and observations on the cultural, political, legal, economic, and religious landscapes of their time. 
     
    Listeners will walk away with new insights, questions, and areas for research, but, more importantly, they''ll walk away with a new understanding of the God of Ancient Israel's Women of Faith.
