Who were the Shepherds of Bethlehem, who were the first to see the Holy Child? This book attempts to bring them into the world as living witnesses, not one dimensional characters.

Our actions and reactions in life come from the core of who we are - our heart. It drives us every day, either towards good or bad. We can't deny or hide who we are. God is after our heart. He wants our heart to depend on Him and desire His truth. We all need to ask ourselves:- How willing am I to allow God to transform my heart?- Am I willing to let go of any blockers that stand in the way of God's transformation in me?If we are willing to change, then we will be open to see the role of our heart in a new way. As we understand God's relationship to our heart, we are able to grow and to live out the destiny that He has for us.

Whenever humans are going through difficult times, they should realize that God is always ready to rescue them from their predicaments. However, humans have short memories; they soon forget how bad things were for them before God's rescue. Therefore, instead of moving closer to God, they perceive a smaller problem as being bigger than the ones from which God had saved them. God is always faithful, and He never changes at all. He expects all to put their trust in Him since He is able and eager to solve human problems according to His will. The Lord is great, and so is His faithfulness. God demonstrated His great love to all humans that he allowed His son to be sacrificed to save them all. Christ gave so much importance to human life that He gave His own life to save theirs. Therefore, there should be nothing to hold humans back from doing His will or from achieving the best that God has in store for all.

George Slatyer Barrett, D.D. (1839-1916) was for 45 years (1866-1911) the minister of Prince's Street Congregational (now United Reformed) Church in Norwich, which under his tutelage was considered "one of the most influential Congregational churches in England." He was educated at University College, London; trained for the ministry at Lancashire Independent College, Manchester; was invested with the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity at the University of St. Andrew's; and was the 1894 Chairman of the Congregational Union of England and Wales. As an author, he made several important contributions to theological literature, including his best-known work as editor of The Congregational Church Hymnal (1887).With The Temptation of Christ, Barrett (ever the Nonconformist) challenges traditional thinking concerning Jesus' time in the wilderness by focusing his attention on its perceived psychological problems, positing "if instead of such a mechanical and literal interpretation of the narrative, we suppose that our Lord was tempted by doubts as to His own Divine plan?" An analysis that has been lauded as "wisely and reverently and spiritually interpreted, with ever fresh pertinence and power."

La carta a los Efesios es uno de los documentos teológicamente másprofundos y desafiantes del Nuevo Testamento, cuyo contenido tieneuna vigencia extraordinaria para todas las épocas, particularmente,por su presentación de la iglesia como una realidad alternativa, unanueva sociedad o humanidad en Cristo. La propuesta paulina, laiglesia como una realidad alternativa, plantea dos temas teológicosconectados entre sí y que están íntimamente relacionados con eltestimonio cristiano en el mundo: 1) El Evangelio como una verdadpública, cuyo contenido y alcance, no se limita a la frontera religiosade la vida ni se encapsula en la iglesia; 2) La doble ciudadanía de loscreyentes, esto es, ciudadanos del reino de Dios y ciudadanos de lacomunidad política en la que habitan.El Dr. López Rodríguez nos ofrece una lectura fresca de estaimportante carta, de la que ha producido una reflexión teológicaproducto de su interacción pastoral fuera y dentro de la iglesia. Susobservaciones y conclusiones son muy pertinentes a estas primerasdécadas del siglo XXI.

When a young woman moves her family to the North Carolina wilderness, she depends on her spiritual fortitude and loving compassion to become the leader her Quaker community desperately needs.In the mid-1700s, Mary Jackson, a lively young Irish wife and mother, undertakes the perilous journey to move to the North Carolina wilderness. She and her husband have a loving, joyful relationship. Life is hard, but also fulfilling as they clear their land, build their home, and raise their growing family. Shortly after they arrive, Mary answers the call to lead the women in her Quaker meeting, a role she struggles to fulfill with sensitive insight and loving care.Too soon, their peaceful community is shattered when farmers rise in rebellion, demanding an end to local government corruption. Some Quakers are disowned by the meeting when they join the uprising and a large group moves to Georgia, leaving Mary as the only strong voice among the remaining members of her Quaker meeting. Despite her efforts, the women of the meeting can only watch as the rebels become increasingly violent. Negotiations for a peaceful resolution are unsuccessful. The rebellion fails in a bloody battle.As the drumbeats of the American Revolution reach the Piedmont, the future of the Quaker community rests on Mary's shoulders. Only the strength of her spiritual reserves will ensure her small Quaker meeting survives.

[a.d. 277.] The Manichæan heresy, which was destined to operate so terribly against the Church and the purity of the Gospel, encountered its earliest successful antagonism in the Thebaid; and I have not doubted the wisdom of prefixing this Disputation to the veritable name and work of Alexander of Lycopolis, as important to the complete history of the great Alexandrian school. The Edinburgh translator of this work regards it as an "authentic relic of antiquity," in spite of Beausobre, who treats it as a romance. I have forced myself, in this republication, to reject no theory of the Edinburgh collaborators to which I have not been able to give as much critical attention, at least, as they have evidently bestowed upon their work. It seems to me a well-sustained presumption that the work is fundamentally real, and Dr. Neander admits its base of fact.

[a.d. 273-313-326.] The records of the Ante-Nicene period, so far as Alexandria is concerned, are complete in this great primate, the friend and patron of Athanasius, and, with him, the master-spirit of the great Council of Nicæa. I have so arranged the "Fragments" of the Edinburgh series in this volume as to make them a great and important integer in rounding out and fulfilling the portraiture of the school and the See of Alexandria. The student will thus have at hand the materials for a covetable survey of the Alexandrian Fathers,-their history, their influence, and their immense authority in early Christendom. In an elucidation I venture to condense my thoughts upon some points which it has been the interest of unbelievers to misrepresent, and to color for their own purposes. But, as the limitations of my editorial duty do not allow me to enter upon a dissertation, I am thankful to refer the reader to the truly valuable though by no means exhaustive work of Dr. Neale on The Patriarchate of Alexandria. His statements are not, indeed, to be received with unreserving confidence; for, in spite of his pure and lofty purposes, his mind had been formed under the strong bias of a transient fashion in divinity, and he always surveyed his subject from an Occidental if not from a Latin (I do not mean a strictly Roman) point of view. To other popular historians I need not refer the student, save, by anticipation, to the list of authorities which will be furnished in the concluding volume of this series.Let us reflect, then, upon the epoch to which we have now come. The intense sufferings, labors, and intellectual as well as moral struggles, of the three heroic centuries, are closing, and Alexander of Alexandria is the grand figure of the period. Diocletian is preparing to let loose upon the sheep of Christ the ferocious wolves of the tenth persecution. Lucian is founding the school of Antioch, revising the New Testament, and, in fact, the whole Bible of the Fathers, for his labors included the version of the Seventy. Unhappily, the ambitious Arius, who calls him master, has begun to trouble the evangelical See of St. Mark; and Achillas, notwithstanding the warnings of Peter, has laid hands upon him, and made him a presbyter. He aspires to be made a bishop.
