Randy Kay was a biotech CEO and a committed agnostic. He trusted data, not divine encounters. Then, in 2005, he clinically died for thirty minutes and found himself with Jesus in heaven. He did not want to come back. What followed was years of rigorous investigation, the kind only a former health care executive with scientific training could conduct. His team reviewed thousands of accounts and accepted fewer than 30 percent. The result is Heaven Encounters: 140 verified near-death experience testimonies, the largest vetted collection ever assembled in a single volume.

The Sacred Diary of Adrian Plass (Aged 37 3/4) began its public life in Christian Family Magazine, progressed to live performances at Christian holiday weeks and has grown to a best-selling book which will leave listeners helpless with laughter yet moved by the genuine affection which holds together Adrian, his family, and his assorted fellow-believers. The Diary is a must for anyone who has ever thought that some of the things we do and say as Christians are faintly ridiculous.

Rev. Dr. Stephen De Young, creator of the popular The Whole Counsel of God blog and podcast, traces the lineage of Orthodox Christianity back to the faith and witness of the apostles, which was rooted in a first-century Jewish worldview. The Religion of the Apostles presents the Orthodox Christian Church of today as a continuation of the religious life of the apostles, which in turn was a continuation of the life of the people of God since the beginning of creation.

Most of us tend to think of the second half of life in chronological terms, but this book proposes a different paradigm. Spiritual maturity is found "when we begin to pay attention and seek integrity" through a shift from our "outer task" to the "inner task." Falling Upward is an invitation to living the gospel and a call to ongoing transformation.

Für erfolgreiches Führen ist der Charakter, die Persönlichkeit des Führenden das Wichtigste. Führen ist immer eine spirituelle Aufgabe. Für Eltern, Lehrer, in der Wirtschaft, im Verein oder in der Kirchengemeinde. In seiner Regel beschreibt Benedikt von Nursia schon vor 1500 Jahren Führende als Menschen, die dem Leben dienen und in ihren Mitarbeitern Leben wecken. Dieses Hörbuch führt Führende auf den richtigen Weg. Ganz entspannt. Im Auto oder auf dem Sofa. Nicht umsonst beginnt die Regel Benedikts mit dem Wort: Höre!

Der Zölibat verpflichtet katholische Priester zur Ehelosigkeit. Trotz sexuellem Missbrauch durch Priester wird er bis heute als ein Grundpfeiler der Kirche verteidigt. Hubert Wolf zeigt dagegen, dass der Zölibat gar nicht so alt ist und es heute bereits verheiratete Priester gibt. Er hinterfragt die diversen Begründungen und findet gute Gründe dafür, den Zölibat endlich abzuschaffen. Sein kirchenhistorisch profunder, glasklar argumentierender Weckruf sollte auch im Vatikan gehört werden. Die Ehelosigkeit der Priester wurde mit ihrer kultischen Reinheit begründet.

Perhaps no figure in biblical scholarship has been the subject of more controversy and debate than Mary Magdalene. Although she is discussed in the gospels of Philip, Thomas, Peter, and Bartholomew in the collection of writings known as the Gnostic gospels that were rejected by the early Christian church, there is no better insight into this mysterious and influential woman than Mary's own gospel.

Wer sich mit dem christlichen Glauben beschäftigt, sieht sich häufig mit der Wahl zwischen liberaler Universitätstheologie oder fundamentalistisch anmutender Bibelgläubigkeit konfrontiert. Beides ist einem alltagstauglichen Glauben, der ehrfürchtig und neugierig gleichermaßen nach dem himmlischen Ewigkeitsfaktor sucht, wenig zuträglich. Dabei sind sich in einer Sache alle einig: Die Bibel ist die Grundlage des christlichen Glaubens. Doch wie kann, darf, muss man mit dem "Buch der Bücher" umgehen?

J. Gresham Machen once said, "False ideas are the greatest obstacles to the reception of the Gospel" - which makes apologetics that much more important. Wanting to engage not just academics and pastors but Christian laypeople and seekers, William Lane Craig has revised and updated key sections in this third edition of his classic text to reflect the latest work in astrophysics, philosophy, probability calculus, arguments for the existence of God, and Reformed epistemology.

Unter dem Druck des Alltags, bei all den oft gegensätzlichen Ansprüchen ist die Gefahr groß, die innere Mitte, die Balance, sich selbst zu verlieren. Kann man einüben, damit umzugehen? Was sind die entscheidenden Ressourcen? Wie wird man ausgeglichen, und wie lernt man Gleichmut? Darum geht es in dieser kleinen Lebensschule von Benediktinermönch Anselm Grün: Zu akzeptieren, dass das Leben Pole kennt. Sich Ziele setzen und seiner Zeit eine Struktur geben.

In Through the Veil, seer and bestselling author Blake Healy unveils a powerful prophetic theme threaded throughout Scripture: the rise of man-made empires. It begins in Eden, when humanity first chose to define good and evil on its own terms. It continues through the Tower of Babel, Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, and into the modern day―where empires are no longer built with bricks, but with ideas, identities, and ideologies. These cultural strongholds are attempts to recreate heaven on earth without God, often fueled by distorted justice and spiritual deception.

"The central miracle asserted by Christians is the Incarnation. They say that God became Man. Every other miracle prepares the way for this, or results from this." This is the key statement of Miracles, in which C.S. Lewis shows that a Christian must not only accept but rejoice in miracles as a testimony of the unique personal involvement of God in His creation.

Every parent and teacher wants to give his or her children the best education possible. They hope that the teaching they provide is a joyful adventure, a celebration of life, and preparation for living. But sadly, most education today falls short of this goal. For the Children's Sake imagines what education can be based on a Christian understanding of the meaning of life and what it means to be human—a child, a parent, a teacher.
