Isaiah Berlin: A Value Pluralist and Humanist View of Human Nature and the Meaning of Life
ISBN: 9789042019294 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Value pluralism, a philosophical perspective belonging to the humanist and liberal family, is meeting with increasing attention and support in contemporary political and moral philosophy. Its starting point is that (personal and social) human life is characterized by conflict between the various (good) values and ends that are pursued. Value pluralism takes cultural and moral diversity seriously and thereby also denies the validity of - in their view - potentially dangerous monisms that promise a perfect, tension-free human life. But does value pluralism itself not lead to another danger...

The Tragedy of Human Freedom: The Failure and Promise of the Christian Concept of Freedom in Western Culture
ISBN: 9789042011052 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Human freedom has been the source of both the high points of humanity as well as of its low points, thus giving rise to the impression that it is a somewhat ambivalent concept. According to Martien Brinkman, the major factor in this ambivalence is the rather narrow meaning that the concept has received in the course of history. Freedom is, for the most part, understood as 'freedom from' or 'freedom to' but only rarely as 'freedom for'. However, it is precisely this latter understanding that is closest to the Christian understanding of freedom, which Brinkman defines as 'internal attachment'....

Critical Faith: Toward a Renewed Understanding of Religious Life and Its Public Accountability
ISBN: 9789042008533 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Can religious faith be critical and remain recognizable as faith? Or is the idea of a critical faith a contradiction in terms? In this book an emerging new voice in the philosophy of religion argues in favor of critical faith. Playing on a double meaning of the word 'critical', the title of the book suggests that faith is not only a critical (crucial) component of human life, but also a component that can and should develop in a critical (intellectually vigilant) way. Taking John Locke's reflections on the relationship between faith and reason as his point of departure, the author weaves his...

Hell and its Afterlife: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives
ISBN: 9780754667292 / Angielski / Twarda / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The notion of an infernal place of punishment for 'undesired' elements in human culture and human nature has a long history both as religious idea and as cultural metaphor. This book brings together a wide array of scholars who examine hell as an idea within the Christian tradition and its 'afterlife' in historical and contemporary imagination. Leading scholars grapple with the construction and meaning of hell in the past and investigate its modern utility as a means to describe what is perceived as horrific or undesirable in modern culture. While the idea of an infernal region of punishment...

ISBN: 9780754641605 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Foundations of science are specific conditions of the cosmos, of human intelligence, of cultural beliefs, and of technological structures that make the pursuit of modern science possible. Each of the four foundations of scientific endeavour can be studied as a topic on its own. The concurrent study of all four together reveals several tensions and interconnections among them that point the way to a greater unification of faith and science. This book explores four foundations of scientific endeavour and investigates some of the paradoxes each of them raises. Kaiser shows that the resolution of...

Images of Christ (Lifebuilder Study Guides)
ISBN: 9781844272488 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents a study of ten scriptural images given to Christ - Shepherd, Lamb of God, Suffering Servant, Branch, Vine, Light of the World, Bridegroom, Head of the Church, Bread of Life and Cornerstone. Some come from the Old Testament, others are word-pictures that Jesus himself used. The focus of each session is on the relationship with the reality behind the image: eg the Good Shepherd remains only a sentimental picture if we do not follow him; Christ is our Cornerstone only if we allow ourselves to be built into his house.

The Art of the Sublime: Principles of Christian Art and Architecture
ISBN: 9780754650737 / Angielski / Twarda / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the view of Hegel and others, pagan art is the art of the beautiful and Christian art is the art of the sublime. Roger Homan provides a comprehensive and informative account of the course of Christian art, encompassing a re-evaluation of conventional aesthetics and its application to religious art. Homan argues that taste and aesthetics are fashioned by morality and belief, and that Christian art must be assessed not in terms of its place in the history of art but of its place in Christian faith. The narrative basis of Christian art is documented but religious art is also explored as the...

The 25 People Who Most Influenced the Music of Christianity
ISBN: 9781470117610 / Angielski / Miękka / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The focus of this book is on people who changed, influenced, or brought larger audiences to Christian music, whether it is music used during a worship service or to the broader public. It is not a musical history, but rather an historical one. It includes indivduals from the earliest days of the church (St. Gregory the Great, St. Benedict of Nursia) to today (Johnny Cash, the Gaithers). Being a musician is not an absolute criteria for making this list. Billy Graham makes the list, for example, because his Billy Graham Crusades exposed Gospel music to millions of people - or tens of millions...

Matthew 13 and the Prophetic Parables About the Present Age
ISBN: 9781105306730 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Matthew chapter 13 is key to correctly understanding the specific time frame for the Second Coming and establishment of Messiahs Kingdom on earth and how the course of the present age will unfold and progress from the first coming of Christ until His return. Failure to properly understand these parables of Matthew 13 results in a failure to understand all the rest of the parables Jesus spoke after them as He so indicated in Luke 4:13. Therefore it behooves every Bible believing Christian to take serious study of the unfolding prophetic events of the present age as symbolized in the eight...
