Loving Jesus
ISBN: 9780800636760 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The essence of spirituality is loving God, says Powell.

In this biblical spirituality for today, Powell's earnest plea is for Christians to revisit their faith not by blazing in religious enthusiasm but by harboring a steadier flame and deeper commitment. Living at the poetic heart of faith, he argues, entails seeing the coordinates of religious life in a new way. Powell espouses the old-fashioned idea of piety....

ISBN: 9780800637927 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
