The jobs we work at each week, the money we struggle to make, and the people we live to please, don’t ever seem to be enough. Material things in life only fulfill us temporarily and will never help us become fully satisfied. When it comes to difficulties, we quickly learn that we aren’t even close to being equipped to deal with the major losses brought on by sudden tragedies. Sometimes it feels like there is no solid answer and that life leaves one big unanswered question; but there is an answer: Your why. The truth is: You were designed for a something greater.

Have we been taught to discount the veracity and deeper meaning of our emotional resonance with the world around us? In The Abolition of Man, C.S.

For centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all, "If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain?"

In these classic essays, which began as talks on the BBC during World War II, Lewis creatively and simply explains the basic tenets of Christianity. Taken from the core section of Mere Christianity, this book provides an accessible way for people to discover these timeless truths. For those looking to remind themselves of what they hold true, or those looking for a snapshot of Christianity, this book is a wonderful introduction to the faith.

San Pietro fu l'apostolo chiamato da Gesù a essere il primo papa con le parole: "Tu sei Pietro e su questa pietra fonderò la mia Chiesa". Divenne, insieme a san Paolo, fondatore della Roma cristiana stabilizzando la prima comunità di cristiani e testimoniando con il martirio la sua fedeltà a Cristo. Ma Pietro fu prima di tutto un uomo chiamato da Gesù a seguirlo dicendogli "Tu sei Simone il figlio di Giovanni; ti chiamerai Cefa, Pietro". Da semplice pescatore, Pietro divenne pescatore di anime. Fu tra i più intraprendenti e certamente il più impulsivo degli apostoli, sicuramente l'apostolo più vicino a Cristo.

Ella gobernó al pueblo de Dios con un corazón amoroso y la fuerza de un soldado. Deborah rompió las barreras de su tiempo, no a través de la rebelión, sino en obediencia a Dios para liberar a su pueblo.

Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity - yet, if you look in the Bible, you'll find only a handful of verses that speak of her. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault examines the Bible, church tradition, art, legend, and newly discovered texts to see what's there.

From the late Roman Empire all the way to our own time, no continuously existing institution or belief system has wielded as much influence as Christianity, no figure as much as Jesus.

Is Christianity a bland, domesticated religion, unthreatening and easy to grasp? Or is it the most exotic, unexpected, and uncanny of religious paths? For the mystics and saints - and for Robert Barron, who discovered Christianity through them - it is surely the strangest way. "At its very center", writes Barron, "is a God who comes after us with a reckless abandon, breaking open his own heart in love in order to include us in the rhythm of his own life." What could be more compelling?

"Chi legge l'Antico Testamento con la mente disincantata e vi si avvicina con l'atteggiamento sereno che avrebbe verso qualsiasi libro scritto dall'umanità, non ha alcuna difficoltà a cogliere l'evidenza dei fatti."
