This book will be...

Devotions for Caregivers: A Month's Supply of Prayer
ISBN: 9780809143948 / Angielski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This book is comprised of easy-to-read-and-digest devotional prayers, each supplication based on a biblical reading and containing a brief concluding prayer. A suggested "Stop For a Minute" section after the final brief prayer allows a moment for the reading from Scripture to sink in, and, hopefully, help the exhausted caregiver "refuel" spiritually and emotionally. Not a...

Presbyterian Pluralism: Competition in a Protestant House
ISBN: 9780870499821 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Focusing on the heated ideological struggles that occurred within the Presbyterian Church, U.S.A., during the late 1800s and early 1900s, this book offers a compelling and original explanation of how diverse viewpoints can be accommodated within a religious institution.

Weston argues, shows clearly that competition is the only effective kind of pluralism for a church - one that leads neither to institutional paralysis nor to irreconcilable division. Much of the current literature in the sociology of religion sees intradenominational conflict in terms of...
