My Journey to a Stronger Faith
ISBN: 9781511932370 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book, the first in his "Christian Dialogues" series, the author, Gary P Ferguson proposes that Christianity was never intended to "replace" the other Abrahamic religions, (Judaism and Islam) but instead was provided by God to stand alongside them, as the only way for Gentiles to receive salvation. For Gentiles were not included in the Covenant with Abraham, and were forbidden to enter the Temple in Jerusalem. With this new interpretation, all people who worship the God of Abraham can proclaim there is but one true God, but only Christians can add that there is but one true Son,...

Same-Sex Marriage in Renaissance Rome
ISBN: 9781501702372 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Same-sex marriage is a hotly debated topic in the United States, and the world, today. From the tenor of most discussions, however, it would be easy to conclude that the idea of marriage between two people of the same sex is a uniquely contemporary phenomenon. Not so, argues Gary Ferguson in this remarkable book about a same-sex wedding ceremony in sixteenth-century Rome. The case in question involved a group of mostly Spanish and Portuguese men, arrested and executed in Rome in 1578, said to have performed same-sex wedding ceremonies in one of the city's major churches. We know about the... Same-sex marriage is a hotly debated topic in the United States, and the world, today. From the tenor of most discussions, however, it would be eas... |

In this book, the second in his "Christian Dialogues" series, author Gary P Ferguson presents his case that "science and religion have no conflict with each other" or as he puts it, "You can have your faith and eat your science cake, too" Beginning with the book of Genesis, the author explores both the science and religious accounts of the creation of the earth, the age of the earth, Noah's flood, and the creation of man and proposes his own solution to finding common ground in each of them.

Salt Lake City: 1890-1930
ISBN: 9781531646356 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Between 1890 and 1930, Salt Lake City experienced some of the most rapid and profound changes of any city in U.S. history. In its pioneer period, from the beginning of white settlement in 1847 to about 1890, the city struggled against outside pressures to maintain its identity as a self-sufficient Mormon utopian community, with its theocratic government, agricultural economy, and polygamous society. But by the turn of the 20th century, Mormonism had largely abandoned those features, and Salt Lake City was becoming like most other American cities as it embraced capitalism, the evolution of...
