To Heal a Fractured World


Rabbi Sacks argues that preoccupation with self is a mistake and that ethics are concerned with the life we live together, talking with as much authority about Sigmund Freud or Karl Marx as he does about the Bible. With a new foreword by Rowan Williams.‘The only force equal to a fundamentalism of hate is a counter-fundamentalism of love.’Jonathan Sacks was an outstanding moral authority of our time and bestselling author of The Dignity of Difference. One of Judaism’s most distinctive and challenging ideas is its ethics of responsibility. We have been given the gift of freedom and we in turn have to honour and enhance the freedom of others. More than in any previous generation, we have been tempted to imagine that it is the individual’s needs which are the sole source of meaning.This is a clarion call to the outside world to come to its senses.

Don't Forget We're Here Forever


''A Pilgrim''s Progress for our time . . . A captivating narrative of discovery'' Telegraph''One of those books I find myself being (excuse the pun) evangelical about, pressing it into friends’ hands like a Gideon’s Bible’ Sunday Times''The stakes are so real and so recognisable . . . The most honest and moving account of the wrestle of faith that I have read since Christian Wiman''s My Bright Abyss'' Church TimesWhy are young people in Britain today turning to faith in our age of uncertainty? Lamorna Ash was raised with about as much Christianity as most people in Britain these days: a basic knowledge of hymns and prayers received via a Church of England primary school education; occasional brushes with religious services. But once she started writing about her two friends’ unexpected conversions, she began encountering a recurring phenomenon: in an age of disconnection and apathy, a new generation was discovering religion for itself. In Don’t Forget We’re Here Forever, Ash embarks on a journey across Britain to meet those wrestling with Christianity today. Through interviews and her own deeply personal journey with religion, and from Evangelical youth festivals to Quaker meetings, a silent Jesuit retreat along the Welsh coastline to a monastic community in the Inner Hebrides, she investigates what is driving Gen Z today to embrace Christianity. Written with lyrical beauty and sensitivity, this is a reminder of our universal need for nourishment of the soul.*A 2025 HIGHLIGHT FOR: Telegraph, Financial Times, New Statesman, Irish Times, Elle and GQ*''A book of rare quality. Ash is a writer of exceptional grace and energy'' Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury''Spellbinding. An incredible exploration of how young people are navigating the complex world we find ourselves in today'' Katy Hessel, author of The Story of Art without Men

The Persistence of Faith


Confidence in a faith is a subtle quality and lack of it shows in many ways, some contradictory. Dr Sacks has that confidence and the quiet charisma to communicate it.Sacks argues that faiths must remain open to criticism, keep alive their separate communities and still contribute far more to national debates on moral issues. They must also learn to get along better. His thesis is that we still live under a Biblical canopy and that a cohesive morality needs the uniting bonds of faith.The subject of this book - religions and ethics - is good ground for him to build on: The Jewish contribution to ethics is distinctly rational and has a long and illustrious tradition. Moral philosophy is after all a Jewish preoccupation.In recent years, he writes, religion has taken us unawares. The rise of the Moral Majority in the USA, the Islamic Revolution, the growth of religious parties in Israel, the power of Catholicism in Poland and the African continent all run contrary to the basic thesis that modernity and secularization went hand in hand and could almost be regarded as synonyms. Instead, and against all prediction, religion has resurfaced in the public domain.In this book, Sacks argues the case for a broadly based return to tradition within the context of religious pluralism and tolerance. Religious values remain a strong force within our culture to be renewed. For our society to be viable indeed they must be renewed.

Antisemitism


Why the ancient evil of antisemitism has returned—and how to counter it. “Had we listened to Robert Spencer and taken heed twenty years ago or even ten years ago, the impact of the Islamists driven antisemitism would not have caught us by surprise. We would have had in place an institutional effort to counter it. “Here is another opportunity to pay attention to his important work. Read this book!” –Ayaan Hirsi AliThe Hamas attack upon Israel on October 7, 2023, was one of the most inhuman jihad attacks ever. The attackers gloried in their savagery and vied to outdo one another in cruelty. Yet despite—or perhaps because of—its brutality, that attack unleashed expressions of hatred for Jews that shocked those who assumed such hate was a thing of the past. Global public opinion turned sharply against Israel. One campus protester carried a sign calling for a “Final Solution.” Another published a video saying, “Be glad—be grateful—that I’m not just going out and murdering Zionists.” Synagogues all over the US received bomb threats. Jews in Europe and the US were attacked. October 7 also led to a large-scale reappearance of claims about the Jews’ secret power and malevolence. Claims that Jews are enemies of all that is good have become mainstream as they have not been since Hitler put a bullet in his brain. The record needs to be set straight for anyone who is willing to see the truth. Historian Robert Spencer does just that. He reveals the sources of today’s Jew-hatred in pre-Christian paganism, Christianity, Islam, and national and international socialism, and rebuts the most common claims against Jews. The resurgence of antisemitism should worry everyone, Jewish and non-Jewish, who is concerned about the recurrence of one of the darkest chapters in human history. The world today is on the brink of returning to such barbarism. Antisemitism: History and Myth is an attempt to keep that from happening.

Life After Doom


What does faith look like when cynicism seems more plausible?What does hope look like when hope seems irrational?What does love look like when hate becomes more popular?In recent years, author and activist Brian McLaren has sensed a widespread emotional shift among growing numbers of people. More and more friends, colleagues, students, and readers confess their sense of futility, their feelings of frustration bordering on despair. They feel that human civilization has passed certain tipping points and that a tide of doom is inexorably rising. This feeling creates a deep inner divide, a tension between a sincere and hopeful commitment to action for the common good on the one hand, and on the other, a feeling that no actions can prevent the arrival of an undesirable or even dystopian future.Life After Doom is a sober analysis of how things stand in relation to climate breakdown, and a deeply insightful exploration of the challenge of living well, maintaining resilience and growing in wisdom and love in the face of nations, ecosystems, economies, religions, and other institutions in disarray. Brian McLaren is the author of Faith After Doubt and Do I Stay Christian? and is a leading and authoritative voice at the intersection of religious faith and contemporary culture.''A book of rare wisdom, genuinely profound in depth and scope''DIANA BUTLER BASS

Radical Then, Radical Now


Throughout history, the Jewish people have faced catastrophe after catastrophe. They have been expelled, ghettoised, murdered and forcibly converted. The question that Jonathan Sacks asks in this original and compelling book is not how Judaism survived four thousand years of persecution, but how it found ways to flourish and thrive.Originally written as a wedding gift for his son over twenty years ago, now featuring a new foreword by Natan Sharansky, this revised edition is a reminder of the enduring beauty and wisdom of one of the world’s oldest religions. A fascinating cultural and religious journey through Judaism’s long history and the revolutionary ideas that shaped the moral civilisation of the West, Jonathan Sacks urges readers not to embrace secularisation or lose the script of the Jewish story but to add their own chapters instead. A deeply personal celebration of faith and community filled with hope for the future of the Jewish people, this book is a must-read for anyone who wishes to understand Judaism or deepen their faith and identity.

15 dní so svätým Carlom Acutisom


Taliansky chlapec Carlo Acutis (1991–2006), svätec v teniskách, ako ho niektorí volajú, mal už od malička jasný životný cieľ – byť spojený s Kristom, v škole, kamarátstvach, rodine, pri pomoci chudobným ako dobrovoľník. Každý deň chodieval na svätú omšu, prijímal Eucharistiu a zúčastňoval sa na adorácii. Carlo vedel, že spojenie s Ježišom je možné len cez Eucharistiu a ňou chcel otvoriť srdcia svojich rovesníkov. Použil na to kľúč k 21.storočiu, internet. Vytvoril webovú stránku, ktorú venoval eucharistickým zázrakom pozbieraným z celého sveta a z rozličných storočí. Stránka i putovná výstava mali a majú vo svete veľkú odozvu. Carlo ukázal, že aj súčasný tínedžer môže žiť plnohodnotný kresťanský život, no jeho príklad zároveň oslovuje všetky vekové kategórie. Povzbudzuje mladých a takisto nabáda na zamyslenie vekom zrelých.

Love Is a Journey


Love is a Journey is the remarkable story of Albino Luciani, known to the world as Pope John Paul I, from his harrowing birth to his tragic death just 33 days into his 1978 pontificate—the shortest pontificate in history. After years of dedicated archival research, and after interviewing dozens of figures in the Catholic hierarchy, as well as Pope John Paul I’s niece, author Mo Guernon explores Luciani’s family history, personality, and character to reveal the very essence of the man who became known as the Smiling Pope. Guernon analyzes Luciani’s major public pronouncements and his most significant writings, which shed considerable light on his fundamental beliefs and worldview. In the concluding chapters of the book Guernon assesses Pope John Paul I’s legacy and journey toward sainthood—and the beguiling question of how the Catholic Church might have evolved had his pontificate endured through the 1980s and beyond. The events of Luciani’s life are so compelling, so remarkable, so fast moving, that the narrative reads like a novel. Guernon paints a multi-dimensional portrait of the man that prominently displays his virtues and shortcomings, successes and failures, heroic deeds and personal doubts about his own courage. He highlights Luciani’s progressive views of issues of his time, the crises in his personal and priestly life, his discomfort with the spotlight and his anxiety about succeeding the popular Pope Paul VI, the relative simplicity of his inauguration as pope, and the unprecedented power he wielded on those with whom he came into contact both personally and through the mass media. Above all, Guernon attempts to capture the pope’s mysterious ability to engender love among people of all faiths, and nonbelievers too, with his inimitable humility and almost divine smile. A striking example of his influence came from punk rocker Patti Smith, who was so enamored of Luciani that she wrote a song about the pope and dedicated her 1979 album, Wave, to him. Pope John Paul I’s impact on the world during his 33-day pontificate was simultaneously profound and perplexing—and, until now, underappreciated. In little more than a month, the Luciani dazzled people of all ages, races, and nations while modernizing the papacy and establishing an ambitious agenda for promoting peace and dialogue among all peoples, a program subsequently carried out by his successors, particularly Pope Francis. And in fact Pope Francis established the Vatican Pope John Paul I Foundation in memory of his beloved mentor. Never has a world leader accomplished so much in so little time.

The Kingdom of Cain


INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Andrew Klavan explores how artists'' imaginative engagement with the darkness can point the way to living beautifully in the midst of a tragic world."Andrew Klavan''s book illuminates even as it explores the deepest darkness, finding truth and beauty in art born of unflinching confrontations with evil."--Daniel McCarthy, editor-in-chief, Modern AgeIn his USA Today bestselling The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it.The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history--including the first murder, Cain''s killing of his brother, Abel--and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.To make beauty out of the world as it is--shot through with evil and injustice and suffering--is the task not just of the artist but, Klavan argues, of every life rightly lived. Examining how that transformation occurs in art grants us a vision for how it can happen in our lives.Klavan eloquently argues that it is possible to be clear-eyed about the evil in the world while remaining hope-filled about God''s ability to redeem it all.

Egyszerűen élni


Anselm Grün bencés szerzetes 365 lelki üzenete ahhoz nyújt ösztönzést nap mint nap, hogy átalakíthassuk az életünket. Egyszerűen akkor élünk, ha összhangban vagyunk önmagunkkal, a megélt pillanattal, és ha képesek vagyunk arra koncentrálni, ami valóban számít. A szerző azt tanácsolja, hogy reggeli szertartásaink részeként olvassuk el aznapi üzenetét, hogy az kísérőnk lehessen az előttünk álló napon. Az üzenetek segítségével könnyebben összpontosítunk életünk fontos kérdéseire a hétköznapok során is, általuk tudatosabban és egyszerűbben élhetünk, illetve könnyebben megtalálhatjuk majd az egyensúlyt a test és a lélek, a külvilág és benső világunk között. Grün szerzetes nem oktat ki, empatikusan fordul felénk a tanácsaival, mozgósítja a bennünk rejlő erőforrásokat és pozitív energiákat szabadít fel. Az üzenetek lenyűgöző keverékei az élet értelmét firtató kérdéseknek és a teljesen gyakorlatias tanácsoknak, melyeket áthat a szerző kifogyhatatlan spiritualitása, mély hite és emberszeretete. „Tehetünk egy hosszabb vándorlást a természetben és eközben elképzelhetjük: Kivándorlok a függőségeim és a magamról alkotott képek fogságából. Felszabadulok az eddig játszott szerepeimből.”
