It can no longer be assumed that most people - or even most Christians - have a basic understanding of the Bible. Many don’t know the difference between the Old and New Testament, and even the more well-known biblical figures are often misunderstood. It is getting harder to talk about Jesus accurately and compellingly because listeners have no proper context with which to understand God’s story of redemption. In this basic introduction to faith, D. A. Carson takes seekers, new Christians, and small groups through the big story of scripture. He helps listeners to know what they believe and why they believe it.

Neste romance em versos, Anne Carson recria, nos dias de hoje, o mito grego de Gerião, um monstro que Héracles – ou Hércules, como também é conhecido – assassina como parte de seus doze trabalhos. Gerião é um menino sensível, mas também um monstro alado e vermelho. Na juventude, após sofrer abusos sexuais de seu irmão mais velho e tendo uma mãe afetuosa, mas distante, Gerião apaixona-se por Hércules. Anos depois, em uma viagem à Argentina, reencontra seu antigo amante, e ambos partem para o Peru, acompanhados do jovem Ancash.

Was ist eigentlich „normal“? Eine Frage, die sich wohl nie wirklich wird beantworten lassen. In Carson McCullers Roman „Spiegelbild im goldnen Auge“ sprengen jedenfalls alle Beteiligten die Grenzen einer rigiden, vermeintlichen „Normalität“. Ehebruch, Homosexualität, erotische Obsessionen, psychische Probleme, selbst das einfach nur anders sein als die anderen – nichts davon darf sein im streng reglementierten Mikrokosmos einer Garnison in den Südstaaten der USA.
