How did the shift from matriarchy to patriarchy come about? In fascinating detail, Merlin Stone tells us the story of the Goddess who reigned supreme in the Near and Middle East. Under her reign, societal roles differed markedly from those in patriarchal Judeo-Christian cultures: women bought and sold property, traded in the marketplace, and inherited title and land from their mothers.

Ein informatives Hörbuch über die Papstwahl 1978: Als der polnische Kardinal Karol Wojtyla im Oktober 1978 zum Papst gewählt wurde und als Johannes Paul II. sein Pontifikat antrat, das rund 26 Jahre lang dauern würde, wurde er der erste nichtitalienische Papst seit 456 Jahren. Wolf Schneider untersucht, was sich hinter den vermauerten Türen bei dieser Wahl abspielte und welche Überlegungen es für die nächste Papstwahl gab.

Das Wort "Gott" ist den einen heilig, den anderen ein Ärgernis und wieder anderen total gleichgültig. Ein Umstand, der damit zu tun hat, dass wir nicht wissen, was in diesem Wort zur Sprache kommt, was damit eigentlich gemeint ist. Egal ob man "religiös" ist oder nicht; ist es gut zu verstehen, was mit dem Wort "Gott" gemeint sein könnte. Es weist auf etwas, das uns alle angeht: das Geheimnis des Lebens.

By the close of World War II, six million Jews had been erased from the face of the earth. Those who eluded death had lost their homes, families, and entire way of life. Their response was quintessentially Jewish. From a people with a long-history of self-narration, survivors gathered in groups and wrote books, yizkor books, remembering all that had been destroyed. Jane Ziegelman’s Once There Was a Town takes listeners on a journey through this largely uncharted body of writing and the vanished world it depicts.

Hitler's Cross is the story of a nation whose church forgot its call and discovered its failure way too late. It is a cautionary tale for every church and Christian to remember who the true king is.

Was Hitler an atheist? The answer is sometimes ambiguous. Some political pundits claim Hitler was an atheist, and others claim he was Christian. In the turbulent years of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler cynically used both the Protestant and Catholic churches to strengthen his grip on power.

The Age of Paradise is the first of a projected four-volume history of Christendom, a civilization with a supporting culture that gave rise to what we now call the West. At a time of renewed interest in the future of Western culture, author John Strickland—an Orthodox scholar, professor, and priest—offers a vision rooted in the deep past of the first millennium. At the heart of his story is the early Church’s “culture of paradise”, an experience of the world in which the kingdom of heaven was tangible and familiar.

He approaches the title's question from a historical perspective, helping listeners see past the emotional rhetoric of today to the recorded facts of our past. This updated edition reports on the many issues that have arisen in recent years concerning religion's place in American society.

Continuing the epic of Christendom told in earlier volumes, The Age of Paradise and The Age of Division, the author explains how, between the Italian Renaissance of the 14th century and the Russian Revolution of the 20th, secular humanism displaced Christianity to become the source of modern culture. The result was some of the most illustrious music, science, philosophy, and literature ever produced.

Before the 10 Commandments, there were questions. Join Moses as he wrestles with whether God exists, whether beauty, morality, and truth are illusions, whether Zeus and Ra are actually atheists, and how he’s going to carry these two massive stone tablets down the mountain all by himself. Part novel, part philosophical debate, part mythological war of the gods, part irreverent screenplay about fighting demon-snakes—this book is the odd genre-mashup you can’t quite look away from.
