From Sea to Shining Sea for Young Readers: 1787-1837
ISBN: 9780800733742 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From the very beginning it would seem that God had a plan for America. From its discovery by Europeans to its settlement, from the Revolution to Manifest Destiny, from the stirrings of civil unrest to civil war, America was on a path. In our pluralistic world, when textbooks are being rewritten in ways that obscure the Judeo-Christian beginnings of our country, the books in the Discovering God's Plan for America series help ground young readers in a distinctly evangelical way of understanding early American history. As young readers look at their nation's development from God's point of...

Beliefs and the Dead in Reformation England
ISBN: 9780198207733 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first comprehensive study of one of the most important aspects of the Reformation in England: its impact on the status of the dead. Protestant reformers insisted vehemently that between heaven and hell there was no 'middle place' of purgatory where the souls of the departed could be assisted by the prayers of those still living on earth. This was no remote theological proposition, but a revolutionary doctrine affecting the lives of all sixteenth-century English people, and the ways in which their Church and society were organized.
This book illuminates the (sometimes... This is the first comprehensive study of one of the most important aspects of the Reformation in England: its impact on the status of the dead. Protes...

Martin Luther's posting of the 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg on 31 October 1517 is one of the most famous events of Western history. It inaugurated the Protestant Reformation, and has for centuries been a powerful and enduring symbol of religious freedom of conscience, and of righteous protest against the abuse of power. But did it actually really happen? In this engagingly-written, wide-ranging and insightful work of cultural history, leading Reformation historian Peter Marshall reviews the available evidence, and concludes that, very probably, it did not....

ISBN: 9780826447036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this account of his thinking, Peter Marshall develops a dynamic and organic philosophy for the coming millennium which he calls liberation ecology. Liberation ecology is holistic in viewing the world as a harmonious whole and all beings and things as interwoven threads in nature's web. It recognizes intuition as the main source of knowledge, and, above all, it is libertarian in seeking to release humanity, society and nature from their existing burdens so that they can unfurl and realize together their full potential.

This is the first comprehensive study of one of the most important aspects of the Reformation in England: its impact on the status of the dead.

The Oxford Illustrated History of the Reformation
ISBN: 9780199595495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Reformation was a seismic event in history, whose consequences are still working themselves out in Europe and across the world. The protests against the marketing of indulgences staged by the German monk Martin Luther in 1517 belonged to a long-standing pattern of calls for internal reform and renewal in the Christian Church. But they rapidly took a radical and unexpected turn, engulfing first Germany and then Europe as a whole in furious arguments about how God's will was to be "saved." However, these debates did not remain confined to a narrow sphere of theology. They came to...
