James Kimmel had everything a missionary could hope for: a loving family, a strong faith, and a calling he could not ignore. When he, his wife Cathy, and their kids leave everything behind for the mission fields of Holland, they believe they are on the brink of changing the world. But beneath the surface of hope, disaster quietly gathers. Tragically, James makes mistake after mistake—until James’s dream collapses, and he is forced to leave the field in disgrace. James’ struggles are told through the honest and heartfelt emails from his mentor, Jonathan Hilkens.

Shalom. My name is Jesus Christ, I am the Son of God – that's probably how Jesus himself would begin to tell his own story. Jesus himself tells you about the beauty of creation, his youth in paradise and his human existence on earth as well as his return. This is a unique opportunity to read firsthand what it was like back then, what happened in paradise, how Jesus as a human being fared with His surrogate mother Mary, His foster father Joseph and later with the apostles, how He came to be sentenced to death and why everything happened the way it did.

Where Breaking Bad meets the burning bush, a modern-day story of miraculous redemption that only God could do.

Great Possessions is a haunting work of biblical historical fiction told in the voice of the man history remembers only as the one who went away sorrowful. He was not born to ease. He built his life by discipline, restraint, and hard-won wisdom, turning a vulnerable household into one of standing, order, and wealth. He kept the law. He gave alms. He earned the respect of elders, servants, and neighbors alike. By every visible measure, he was a righteous man. But beneath the ordered rooms, sealed storehouses, and carefully guarded honor, another master had long been at work: fear.

Nell'ormai lontanissimo febbraio del 1989 l'ayatollah Khomeini emise una fatwa, una sentenza di morte, contro Rushdie per aver scritto I versi satanici, romanzo nel quale, a detta del leader iraniano, venivano offesi la religione islamica e il suo profeta. A quasi trent'anni da quell'evento, la mattina del 12 agosto 2022, mentre si trovava sul palco del Chautauqua Institution - nello stato di New York - per tenere una conferenza, un uomo in abiti e maschera neri si precipitò lungo il corridoio verso di lui brandendo un coltello. Il primo pensiero di Rushdie fu: "Sei tu, dunque. Eccoti qui".

Sfogliando le pagine di quel prezioso libro che è la vita, Papa Francesco ci conduce lungo un sentiero fatto di emozioni, di gioie e di dolori: una finestra sul passato che ci permetterà di conoscere meglio il nostro presente. "Non va dimenticata la lezione più importante: possiamo rileggere la storia della nostra vita per fare memoria e poter trasmettere qualcosa a chi ci ascolta. Per imparare a vivere, però, tutti noi, dobbiamo imparare ad amare." FRANCESCO.

"Non posso dimenticare le ascese giovanili in Grigna passando dalla cresta Segantini... Credo che la via della Chiesa di oggi sia una via stretta: la chiamerei la via del crinale." È lucido e consapevole, ma pieno di speranza, lo sguardo con cui il cardinale Angelo Scola racconta la sua vita, la Chiesa e l’Italia, nella profonda e sorprendente conversazione con Luigi Geninazzi.

C'è un'ansia di cambiamento nel mondo. Papa Francesco la raccoglie nei suoi gesti e nelle sue parole, specialmente in un tempo di crisi quale quello che stiamo vivendo. È chiaro che abbiamo tutti bisogno di capire che cosa ci sta accadendo, di dare una lettura umana e spirituale di quel che viviamo. Francesco, come si comprende in questo volume, assimila la visione di sant'Ignazio di Loyola così come emerge negli Esercizi Spirituali. E afferma che i "desideri allargano il cuore": è in essi che "si può discernere la voce di Dio" nella storia di oggi.

Cos'è cambiato nei cinquant’anni passati dalla pubblicazione di Lettera a una professoressa? Che cosa succede se quella Lettera viene riportata oggi sui banchi di scuola, data ai ragazzi da leggere e da discutere? Andrea Schiavon lo ha fatto, intrecciando la vita e gli scritti di don Milani con i problemi, le aspettative e i sogni degli studenti di oggi. «E se io non rientrassi in un numero che va dallo zero al dieci?» chiede uno di loro, interrogandosi sui voti. «Come può funzionare un sistema dove gli insegnanti non hanno voglia di insegnare e gli studenti di imparare?» domanda un altro.
