What are they saying about ChristianJewish relations?

1980

At various times in history colonies of Jews have gone to China and lived there. In China they have never been persecuted, and if they have suffered hardships, these were only hardships of life in the Buck, Pearl S. community where they were. The story takes place in a period when the Chinese had accepted the Jews, and when, indeed, most Jews had come to think of themselves as Chinese.

Elegant, passionate, and filled with love of God's creation, Abraham Joshua Heschel's The Sabbath has been hailed as a classic of a Jewish spirituality ever since its original publication. In this brief yet profound meditation on the meaning of the Seventh Day, Heschel introduced Heschel, Abraham the enormously influential idea of an 'architecture of holiness' that Joshua appears not in space but in time. Judaism, he argues, is a religion of time: it finds meaning not in space and the material things that fill it but in time and the eternity that imbues it, so that 'the Sabbaths are our great cathedrals.'

Heschel, Abraham The book asserts the centrality of God to all life and the importance of Joshua prayer to every activity of man.

Heschel, Abraham A profound interpretation of the historic Jewish faith in the idiom of Joshua our time.

Nieburh, Richard

The book attempts to interpret the meaning and spirit of American Christianity as a movement which finds its center in the faith in the kingdom of God. The pattern which is discerned in that movement is complex; moreover it can be suggested only vaguely and in outline.

American Christianity and American culture cannot be understood at all save on the basis of faith in a sovereign, living, loving God.

Moran, Gabriel

Hinn, Benny

As education and community fully converge, Moran argues, community and religious community become synonymous as do education and religious education. The ramifications of this new religious body are many: we move from speaking of the one true church to a valid religious body. We move from the preaching of words to education. We move from the distributing of sacraments to communities. We look now for the presence of religious expression wherever community and education interpenetrate.

It is the opposite of looking at things from the outside, taking them for granted.

Is it compatible with Christianity?

Abstract

A representative collection of Spanish mystical and spiritual writing from the 16th and 17th centuries. In addition to the works of St Teresa, St Ignatius and St John of the Cross the book also covers Pond, Kathleen carefully the works of Garcia de Cisneros, Bernardino Laredo, Francisco Osuna, Luis de Leon, Jeronimo Gracian, Maria de Agreda and others.

Presents an extensive discussion of special aspects of the theory and Underhill, Evelyn practice of mysticism. Interprets the lives of 7 famous mystics, including Plotinus, Julian of Norwich and Charles Peguy.

Like Thomas A Kempis' The Imitation of Christ, The Cloud of Unknowing springs from an age when European mysticism was in full flower. Its author was probably an English country parson of the late unknown fourteenth century; but his exact identity remains unknown. The book's main theme is that God cannot be apprehended by man's intellect, and that only love can pierce the 'cloud of unknowing' which lies between them.

First published in 1911, considered an unsurpassed general introduction to the study of nature and development of man's spiritual consciousness. Part one explains the relation of mysticism to Underhill, Evelyn psychology, vitalism, etc.; the second, is the awakening, purification and training one's self to a path that leads to blessedness of the Unitive life.

A refreshingly candid picture of a community of nuns outstanding for their learning and mysticism. A wealth of historical detail gives a new insight into the Middle Ages.

Icons: The Essential Collection

2016

A collection of texts written between the 4th and 15th centuries by spiritual masters of the Orthodox Christian tradition. First published in St Nikodimos and 1782 is the most influential work (with the exception of the Bible) on St Markarios Orthodox Christianity. Philokalia means love of the beautiful, the exalted, the excellent, understood as the transcendent source of life and the revelation of Truth.

Drawing on the monastic practice of lectio Divina, the icons themselves are seen as 'texts' giving rise to meditation on the Collins, Gregory Christian mysteries. This leads to acts of prayer with concentration on the 'Jesus Prayer', discussed in detail in the introduction.

A spiritual classic ripe for renewed appreciation in our day. For the translated by recent changes in Russia have revealed the great religious traditions of Helen Bacovcin that land. And this work, freshly translated for our time, is among the finest examples of that centuries-old faith.

Recent years have seen a marked increase in the popular and ecumenical appeal of icons- for centuries an integral feature of Orthodox Christianity. Many of those mysteriously attracted to this Forest, Jim ancient art form have little understanding of its meaning for prayer and worship. In this fascinating and beautiful book, Jim Forest offers a simple introduction to the tradition of icons with special emphasis on their practical function in the spiritual life.

Saving sex for marriage. Attending the Latin mass. Witnessing to others about Christ. Baby boomers largely rejected these trappings of Carroll, Colleen traditional Christianity- so why are their children embracing them with such fervor?

Contains prayers and meditations on a selection of icons from the Abbey's Byzantine chapel. The book's aim is that of the icon itself: to Collins, Gregory open the heart in contemplative prayer to the transforming vision of God's glory.

Icons are a doorway to prayer that will deepen your relationship with Martin, Linette God. An icon speaks to both the mind and soul. We respond in belief, or praise, or wonder, or encouragement, or simply, prayer.

In looking at the icons in this book, we can remember who we are, and Riccio, Faith what we are called to be, as we are continuously being "conformed to the eikon of his son" (Rom. 8:29).

Suzuki, D. T.

In the novel, Siddartha, a young man, leaves his family for a contemplative life, then, restless, discards it for one of the flesh. He conceives a son, but bored and sickens by lust and greed, moves on again. Near despair, Siddartha comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of his life- the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace, and finally, wisdom.

Buddhism crossed from India into China in the 6th century A.D. and confronted the practical Chinese spirit with the speculative spirit of India. This encounter is one of the most extraordinary events in the record of religion and culture.

In Strannik, the third book of her trilogy, the author speaks of the hunger and dream of the pilgrimage that everyone must make back to unity with God. And it is autobiographical, the classic story of the pilgrimage of a dynamic woman from Tsarist Russia to central Canada, from material success to spiritual riches.

Seeks to encapsulate in non technical language the total human experience, made up of an inseparable combination of Conceptual, worship, and social factors, of religious life past and present.

Intended for persons who are seeking serious guidance in their personal spiritual growth. Spiritual formation is not a reduction of human life to the spiritual, but an integration for all dimensions of human personality around the most fundamental dimension, that of being made in the image and likeness of God. 20th century prophetic gifts are reappearing within the charismatic renewal movement. Yocum discusses the basic nature of prophecy and offers guidelines on developing, discerning false prophecy, and maturing in the use of prophetic gifts.

"I do not remember anyone ever teaching me how to enjoy the Lord.

Perhaps it was supposed to be self-evident. If so, it wasn't to me. Only after years of struggle was I able to piece the puzzle together for myself. It isn't very profound, but it has helped me and enabled me to liberate many others for a path of joylessness. God wants to be loved and enjoyed by His children. He made them for an eternity of joy in heaven."
