Why do we have the freedom to choose? What are the choices we make? Why do we make certain decisions? How do we reason and select or evaluate our choices to make life work for us? Or is it about us? Pro-Choice, Pro-God, Pro-Life: A Multiple-Choice Answer for a Humanity Question addresses these inquiries and others.Choice is a fundamental freedom in a free society as opposed to a dictatorship. Choice has always been a God-given ability for angelic beings and humans. Lucifer and the heavenly host exercised their ability to choose long before God created humankind. Two-thirds of the angelic beings decided to stay on God's side, and one-third decided to rebel with Lucifer. What we choose and why we make the selections are critical to the success of life. Taking away one's fundamental right to choose creates rebellion, discord, strife, and a form of slavery. Although God may allow it, however, it is not his desire for us.Teaching and influencing people how to make better choices is key to having a better society. In Pro-Choice, Pro-God, Pro-Life: a Multiple-Choice Answer for a Humanity Question, you will explore why we as a nation must be committed to establishing and promoting better choice-making abilities, based upon proven biblical truths, and the need for embracing God's grace for overcoming past mistakes.We are a violent, sexually addicted society with a bent toward self-destruction. We cannot afford to leave our future to chance or politicians who have figured out how to manipulate the emotions of the country for their gain. By exercising our God-given ability to choose correctly, we become competently equipped as a nation to be pro-choice, pro-God, and pro-life for our humanity.

Solace is an individual reflective journal for people who have been experiencing loss. It also can be used as a church small group event. Solace was not designed to move a person through the grief process before they are ready to move to another stage. Rather, Solace was designed for everyone to utilize scripture, reflective journals, and prayers while acknowledging and dealing with their grief. This combination was developed so that each person can design their own spiritual journey and find comfort or consolation in their time of distress or sadness. How deeply each person invests in their personal life story is entirely up to them. Whatever you invest in your journey with grief is what you will receive back.

I Katolicismen: En rejse ind i troens hjerte søger biskop Robert Barron at indfange essensen af den katolske tro. Med udgangspunkt i Jesu Kristi liv og lære gennemgår Barron de vigtigste dele ved katolsk tro og kultur - fra sakramenter, tilbedelse og bøn, til Maria, apostlene og helgenerne, til en forklaring af begreber som nåde, frelse, himmel og helvede - med talrige referencer til kunst, litteratur, arkitektur, personlige historier, den hellige skrift, filosofi og historie.Forfatteren skriver: "Jeg vil tage dig med på en guidet udforskning af den katolske verden, men ikke som om det var en guidet tur i et kulturhistorisk museum. Jeg vil føre dig ind i Inkarnationens mysterium i håbet om, at du må blive forvandlet ved dens kraft.” Bogen er blevet til på baggrund af de manuskripter, Barron satte sammen til produktionen af en populær TV-serie Catholicism fra 2011. Han skriver: "De tre år, som jeg brugte på at planlægge, skrive, rejse, filme og redigere den filmserie, udgør en uforglemmelig del af mit liv.” Bogen Katolicismen er et uundværligt bidrag til enhver, der ønsker at udforske den kristne tros dybder. Den er en fantastisk gennemgang af katolsk tro og historie og dens betydning for vores verden af i dag. Bogen er rigt illustreret med farvebilleder.

In "Duties of Christian Fellowship," eminent Puritan theologian John Owen comprehensively examines the foundations of healthy church membership through timeless biblical principles embraced across denominations.Owen argues that God designed local church congregations to gather under duly appointed leaders, actively participating in Christ's ordinances. He compellingly asserts every believer's duty to unite with a faithful church exhibiting core marks of biblical fidelity. Emphasizing consent and submission to Christ's authority, Owen portrays church commitment as the avenue for real spiritual fellowship.The book delineates twenty-two "rules" governing congregational responsibilities, grounded in relevant Scriptures. The first section's seven rules define ethical member conduct toward church leadership, spanning from exemplifying Hebrews 13:17's call to "obey your leaders and submit to them," to Ephesians 6's mandate to intercede for pastors through prayer. The second section's fifteen rules outline intra-congregational relations conducive to unity and harmony. Here Owen methodically moves through every principle, reinforcing each rule's scriptural basis and underlying motivations.While emphasizing official member duties, Owen essentially constructs a vision for healthy participation vital for church prosperity. "The Duties of Fellowship" brilliantly spotlights the path toward robust, thriving church community.

L'année dernière, j'ai fait un séjour d'un mois dans l'une des grandes puissances du monde. Il est dit que la population de ce pays est constituée à vingt-cinq pour cent de Chrétiens. Oui, la prétention est que, une personne sur quatre est née de nouveau.Il m'a aussi été dit que le taux de divorce montait en flèche. Un ministre de l'Evangile m'a même dit que le taux de divorce parmi les croyants était tout aussi élevé que parmi les non-croyants.Il m'a été dit que des ministres-dirigeants de l'Evangile étaient en train de divorcer d'avec leurs femmes et d'en épouser d'autres tout en continuant à avoir les bénédictions de Dieu sur leurs grands ministères.Ceci m'a fait réfléchir ! Etaient-ils en train d'utiliser une Bible différente de la mienne? Etions-nous dans différentes religions?Je commençai à réfléchir sérieusement sur ce sujet. Je lus et relus les Ecritures.Tu trouveras dans les pages qui suivent le fruit de mon étude.Que Dieu te bénisse pendant que tu lis ce livre.

While the social and cultural history of the early modern military has greatly advanced in the last few decades, the religious dimension of the military life in the Holy Roman Empire between 1500 and 1650 has hardly been explored. The Reformation brought profound political, social and cultural upheavals, but the religiosity of the men and women who followed the Christian life in the chaos of war still represents a large gap in the historiography. Faith in War shows that confessional antagonisms lost much of their meaning during war and coexistence became a fact of army life. Connecting military and civilian social and cultural history in these ways, Nikolas Funke's case study on this period brings new life to important current historiographical discussions in a military context, including stereotyping, confessionalization, social discipline, deviance, toleration, religious violence, and the culture of death.
