Biblické dôkazy spasiteľnej viery
Hoci majú veriaci právo na všetku duchovnú potechu v Kristovi, zostávajúci hriech a pokušenia im často bránia v radosti z týchto požehnaní. John Owen v diele Biblické dôkazy spasiteľnej viery ukazuje, že viera „je koreňom, z ktorého vyrastajú všetky druhy skutočnej potechy“ a že „veriaci majú podiel na tejto poteche v miere, ktorá je priamo úmerná k dôkazom pravej viery v ich životoch“. Owen skúma náležité pôsobenia viery, ktoré dokazujú jej pravosť, pričom nás povzbudzuje pevne sa držať Krista, usilovať o posvätenie, mať spoločenstvo s Bohom v uctievaní a privádzať naše duše do jedinečného stavu pokánia. Chcete viac oslavovať Boha a mať väčší podiel na poteche, ktorá je v Kristovi? Inšpirujte sa touto pastoračnou úvahou o dôkazoch spasiteľnej viery.
„Táto knižočka, ktorá je výťažkom veľkých tém dlhých a často komplikovaných rozpráv Johna Owena o kresťanskom živote, bola príliš dlho prehliadaná. Dôsledná a citlivá revízia Briana Hedgesa obnovuje silu jej argumentov. Neexistuje jednoduchší spôsob, ako sa oboznámiť s Owenovou teológiou kresťanského života.“
Crawford Gribben, autor diela John Owen and English Puritanism: Experiences of Defeat
John Owen (1616 – 1683) bol anglický puritán, ktorý slúžil ako viceprezident Oxfordskej univerzity a pastor cirkevných zborov v Coggeshalle a Londýne. Bol osobným kaplánom Olivera Cromwella. Jeho diela znovu vydalo vydavateľstvo Banner of Truth Trust.
iPray 5: Cezročné obdobie 9. - 17. týždeň
Piaty diel série iPray otvára druhú časť Cezročného obdobia – čas, keď po veľkých sviatkoch prichádzajú opäť všedné dni. No aj v nich chce Boh pôsobiť s rovnakou silou. iPray nám pomáha udržať si duchovnú horlivosť a vnímať každodennosť ako priestor pre Božie pôsobenie. Stručné reflexie k evanjeliám dosvedčujú, že modlitba nie je únikom z reality, ale spôsobom, ako ju premieňať zvnútra. Čas strávený s iPray napomáha hlbšiemu prežívaniu viery, buduje návyk pravidelnej modlitby a pomáha rozpoznávať Božiu prítomnosť aj uprostred všednej každodennosti. Kniha svojím jazykom aj hĺbkou prehovára k mladým i dospelým a ponúka im podnety na osobné stretnutie s Bohom.
Svätý František
Táto knižná esej Romana Guardiniho vznikla pri príležitosti osláv sedemstého výročia smrti Františka z Assisi. V slovenčine vychádza a ožíva táto krásna esej v preklade Rastislava Nemca presne po sto rokoch, ako súčasť osláv jubilejného roka svätého Františka z Assisi, vyhláseného pápežom Levom XIV.
Z predhovoru autora: Každý občas zažívame niečo, čo vnímame ako zázrak. Až sa nám zvláštne tlačí na pery slovo prozreteľnosť: keď sledujeme, ako pred nami vyrastá niekto výsostne osobitý. No práve tým, ako ostáva sám sebou, dokáže ostatným napomôcť oslobodiť sa a nájsť svoje vlastné ja. Čím rýdzejšie takýto človek dotvára svoje vnútro, tým bezprostrednejšie vie prehovoriť iným do srdca. Najmä tým, ktorých s ním spája spoločný ideál a spoločná cesta životom. Presne taká je prozreteľnosť. Vie zapôsobiť oveľa účinnejšie než obyčajná situácia, čo sa nečakane udeje v náš prospech. Je to prozreteľnosť prýštiaca z koreňov ľudskej existencie, nevýslovným spôsobom spájajúca prirodzenú svojráznosť človeka s najhlbším putom jeho vlastného osudu. Obráťme preto s láskou svoju myseľ k takémuto človeku, ktorý sa čistotou svojho spontánneho dospievania stal pre mnohých symbolom slobody a iným zasa pomáha ako inšpirácia na ceste: pohliadnime na Františka.
Prúd živej vody
Rádio LUMEN vo svojej východnej katechetickej edícii vydalo ďalšiu publikáciu. Pojednáva o pretrvávajúcej jednote v živote Cirkvi, prostredníctvom ktorej Svätý Duch neustále vyjadruje Božiu pravdu v nás a v každej nasledujúcej generácii. Tradícia je ucelený a jednotný prúd života, ktorý nás spája s Prameňom živej vody, ktorý nás povolal, aby sme žili v ňom. Keď budeme uvažovať o rôznych aspektoch Tradície, je dôležité, aby sme sa sústredili na Ducha, ktorý pôsobí v Cirkvi prostredníctvom týchto prvkov. Bez tohto vnímania Ducha ako jadra Tradície sa stretávame len s doktrínami, obradmi a formulkami. To však nie je Tradícia. Tradícia je živá skúsenosť so živým Bohom, ktorý nás volá, aby sme ho rozpoznali pri lámaní chleba, pri delení sa o Božie slovo, pri speve, pri pohľade na svätú ikonu, všade tam, kde nám Duch dáva pocítiť svoju prítomnosť. Tradícia, o ktorej hovoríme, nie je éterický, neuchopiteľný pojem, ktorý nemožno konkretizovať. Naopak. Táto Tradícia je stelesnená v konkrétnych veciach. Vníma sa v mnohých aspektoch Cirkvi, ako sú Biblia, symboly viery, ekumenické koncily, spisy cirkevných otcov, hymny, ikony a celý systém cirkevných dogiem, cirkevnej správy, cirkevnej bohoslužby a cirkevného umenia.

The Life and Times of John Steele
From radical reformer to Mormon pioneer and mystic Among the founders of Salt Lake City, Parowan, and Las Vegas, and an explorer of Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon, John Steele's legacy is etched across the American West. The Life and Times of John Steele follows the remarkable journey of this Irish-born convert to Mormonism from his birth into scarcity through his final days in Kanarraville, Utah. A fervent believer in utopian ideals, Steele sought to build an egalitarian Kingdom of Christ in the last days, becoming a key figure in early Utah history. His multifaceted roles—missionary, city founder, militia major, justice of the peace, and self-taught doctor using folk medicine, charms, and the occult—make his story unique. This meticulously researched biography offers new insights into pivotal events such as the Mountain Meadows Massacre and the communal economics of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, drawing from Steele’s extensive personal diaries and papers to bring his complex, colorful life and times to light.
Life on the Breadline
Academic theology stands at a crossroads. Will it rise to the challenge and focus its energy on the development of a fieldwork-led theology of liberation that can resource the struggle to make poverty histor? ife on the Breadline represents the first fieldwork-based book by an academic theologian to identify, explore and analyse the spectrum of Christian responses to austerity-age poverty in the UK. Rooted in an interdisciplinary theoretical analysis of multidimensional poverty, political discourse and extensive qualitative research, it develops a groundbreaking theological analysis of the impact of governmental austerity policies since the 2008 financial crash. In Life on the Breadline, Chris Shannahan identifies and critiques a spectrum of Christian responses to poverty and sows the seeds of a new theology of liberation, demonstrating that the Church faces a Kairos moment in its engagement in the public sphere and its commitment to ‘transform structural injustice’.

Saint George Liberator
A groundbreaking investigation of how representations of Orthodox Christian saints serve as means of resistance amid cultural and political domination On the eastern Mediterranean island of Cyprus, repeatedly conquered and colonized, Orthodox Christians have long struggled for political self-determination, agricultural sustainability, and spiritual wholeness. Saint George Liberator illuminates the intimate interplay of Christian theology and Mediterranean politics through the lens of St. George: the martyred soldier of pre-Constantinian Christianity, the liberator of captives and protector of the downtrodden, the dragonslayer of medieval legend. A saint beloved by Christians and Muslims alike, St. George’s representations across many different media are upheld as means of resistance and hope in contexts of domination and suffering. The book offers a profound and original reading of Orthodox hagiography, demonstrating how hagiography is not only an art form of historical significance but also a vibrant, living theology of liberation amid struggles to be whole and free. Saint George Liberator is interdisciplinary in its methodology and scope, deepening its vivid ethnographic narration through conversation with sociological theory and the historical theology that has shaped Orthodox Christian society and consciousness over the course of centuries. Enmeshed in the multicultural complexity of the Ottoman and British Empires, modern Cyprus offers a case study of how colonized and colonizing populations may turn to the same religious repertoires for understanding themselves and one another, telling opposing stories with shared symbols and claiming the means of interpretation as a path of cultural resistance. As a case study in interreligious imagination and the political power of vernacular theology, the book speaks of psychosocial dynamics that far exceed their enactment in Cyprus. It shows that Christian saints, mediated diversely in material and intellectual culture, may not only propose magnetic alternatives to the world as it is but also directly aid in forming Christian publics for liberative politics in the present.
Reverberations of Good News
What made Jesus’ message “good news” in its original context - and why does it still reverberate today? In Reverberations of Good News, the Gospels are brought vividly to life as cultural, political, and spiritual responses to the world of the first century. Rather than offering a detached or purely historical analysis, this book explores how Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John each articulate Jesus’ message in strikingly different ways - through inner renewal, radical justice, peaceful subversion and a bold claim to truth. With fresh insight into the dating, authorship and purpose of the Gospels, George van Kooten challenges familiar assumptions and invites readers to see these texts as dynamic responses to real-world tensions. Bridging ancient context and modern meaning, this book is essential reading for preachers, students, and scholars alike- anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Gospels as living texts that continue to shape lives and societies.

Understanding Biblical Law
We tend to be perplexed by the psalmists who express delight in God''s laws. We see biblical law as a long list of rules with harsh punishments, and the more we read the biblical law within modern legal frameworks, the stranger it appears. We are too estranged from its world, aims, and concerns to see its beauty and wisdom.In Understanding Biblical Law, Dru Johnsonreorients the reader to see biblical law through ancient Israelite eyes. He deconstructs common myths regarding biblical law and shows how it often differs significantly from both modern law and ancient Near Eastern law. Johnson weaves in an ancient murder mystery between chapters to show how ancient Israelites could have reasoned with and through Torah to solve real-life problems. He then demonstrates how we can do the same by discerning biblical law''s literary and historical contexts, appreciating its sophisticated wisdom, and distinguishing it from our modern legal notions.This book is engaging and accessible for undergrads and laypeople but robust enough for seminarians. Johnson demonstrates a skill-based approach for interpreting Old Testament law and uses examples to encourage readers to practice these skills for themselves.When we enter the biblical world, we see with the psalmists the beauty and sophistication of Israel''s laws and discover a rich resource for thinking about the law''s theological implications for Hellenistic Judaism, the New Testament, and readers today.
The Incarnation as God's First Intention
In The Incarnation as God''s First Intention, Edwin Chr. van Driel advocates a transformative perspective on the incarnation, proposing that God''s decision to become incarnate was not a response to human sin but was instead God''s first and foundational intention. Engaging the historical and theological roots of this supralapsarian (before the fall) Christology, Van Driel, a leading scholar on the topic, invites readers to reconsider long-held views on God''s engagement with creation.With clarity and depth, Van Driel unpacks how understanding the incarnation as God''s original purpose reshapes the doctrines of creation, election, salvation, and eschatology. His insights offer a fresh framework for the church''s mission in today''s world, suggesting that God''s presence with us is not merely a remedy for human fallenness but, rather, God''s first intention and ultimate goal for creation.Written for students, theologians, and all who seek a deeper understanding of God''s relation to the world, this book challenges readers to see the incarnation, God''s dwelling among us, as God''s central purpose.

Pilgrimage centres around the world, including Mecca in Saudi Arabia, Guadalupe in Mexico, Lourdes in France, Santiago de Compostela in Spain, Haridwar in India, and Shikoku in Japan, attract millions of pilgrims annually, while a flourishing ''spiritual tourism'' industry has grown to promote the practice.

Reader explores the key issues and themes of pilgrimage through history to the present, looking at its various forms, how people take part, what is learnt from the journeys, and why pilgrimage remains popular in an increasingly secular age.
