Enoch, discendente di Adamo, narra il suo viaggio attraverso i sette cieli, ricevendo rivelazioni sulla creazione, il futuro e segreti divini.

Il volume offre una prospettiva affascinante sulle prime credenze cristiane, approfondendo temi come Genesi, Noè, angeli caduti, demoni e la fine dei tempi.

Discover how God used Judah despite colossal dysfunction in his family. Surprisingly, "Judah" is the name from which we derive our modern words "Jew" and "Judaism". God works the same Judah twist (that is, spiritual transformation) in our lives when we believe and seek his guidance.

In this exploration, we delve into the lives of three prominent biblical warriors: Samson, Joab, and Gideon. Their stories not only captivate our imaginations but also offer profound lessons on faith, leadership, and the transformative power of God's presence. Through their remarkable journeys, we discover how ordinary individuals can be transformed into formidable warriors through their trust in the Divine.

Of all the figures in the Bible, David arguably stands out as the most perplexing and enigmatic. He was many things: a warrior who subdued Goliath and the Philistines; a king who united a nation; a poet who created beautiful, sensitive verse; a loyal servant of God who proposed the great Temple and founded the Messianic line; a schemer, deceiver, and adulterer who freely indulged his very human appetites.

Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God, and no myth, revolutionary, or misunderstood prophet, insists Benedict XVI. He thinks that the best of historical scholarship, while it can't "prove" Jesus is the Son of God, certainly doesn't disprove it. Indeed, Benedict maintains that the evidence, fairly considered, brings us face-to-face with the challenge of Jesus-a real man who taught and acted in ways that were tantamount to claims of divine authority, claims not easily dismissed as lunacy or deception.

On the third day, God planted the garden in the east of the earth, on the border of the world eastward, beyond which, towards the sunrising, one finds nothing but water, that encompasses the whole world, and reaches to the borders of heaven.

Do you enjoy listening to moving stories packed with adventure, romance, and intrigue? More importantly, do you enjoy listening to things that make the Bible more understandable and relatable to help you to grow spiritually? What if you could get all of that from one book? That is what Giants, Kings, and Psalms has done. Imagine listening to the dramatic chronological narrative of the life of Israel’s King David while also enjoying the psalms in context of the events of his life. But it is more than an adventure and is superior to a biography..

Jacob seems to be anything but a model disciple. He's a trickster, liar, and selfishly ambitious man who fathers children with four women and leads a dysfunctional family rife with jealousy and backstabbing. But Jacob is also Israel, the namesake of the Old Testament community of God, chosen and blessed. As such, this sinner-saint, who limps along with the Lord, burdened by weakness and beset by problems, is the mirror image of all of us who follow Jesus.

The life of Joseph is one of the Bible’s most cherished stories. After a beloved son is betrayed by his resentful brothers, he must endure years of slavery, false accusations, and wrongful imprisonment. At every turn, Joseph’s faith is tested, culminating in a pivotal question: Will he save his brothers in their hour of need? In this dramatic telling, Dr. R.C. Sproul shows how Joseph foreshadows the greater Deliverer, Jesus Christ, and encourages Christians to trust in the sovereign God who works all things for our good.

The Bible as we know it today is best understood as a process, one that begins in the tenth century BCE. In this revelatory account, a world-renowned scholar of Hebrew scripture joins a foremost authority on the New Testament to write a new biography of the Book of Books, reconstructing Jewish and Christian scriptural histories, as well as the underappreciated contest between them, from which the Bible arose. The Making of the Bible is the most comprehensive history yet told of the world's best-known literature, revealing its buried lessons and secrets.

Like different artists who render the same subject using unique styles and points of view, the Gospels paint four distinctive portraits of the same Jesus of Nazareth. To Christians worldwide, he is the centerpiece of history, the object of faith, hope, and worship. Even those who do not follow him admit the vast influence of his life. With clarity and insight, biblical scholar Mark Strauss illuminates the four biblical Gospels.

The soul of America is far more than a concept—it is a people. Even the most sacred principles mean very little unless lived out passionately by an informed citizenry. In The Portable Patriot, you’ll find a carefully assembled sampling of American history’s most formative words, written by the people who made that extraordinary history. Speeches and sermons, essays and extracts, poems and proclamations illumine such values as independence, virtue, humility, bravery, thrift, prayer, liberty, and reliance on God.

Od momentu, gdy jako pierwsza zobaczyła Jezusa po zmartwychwstaniu i ogłosiła to światu, na temat jej dalszych losów Biblia milczy. Jednak ślady jej obecności i podróży do Rzymu, Efezu, Egiptu czy Francji można znaleźć m.in. w niekanonicznych ewangeliach i apokryfach. Aby je poznać, autorka odbyła długą drogę. Wiedzy i natchnienia szukała np. w bogatych archiwach Watykanu, docierając do najstarszych manuskryptów i zapomnianych ksiąg.

A generation of 20th-century Americans knew him as a gentle, stoop-shouldered old black man who loved plants and discovered more than a hundred uses for the humble peanut. George Washington Carver goes beyond the public image to chronicle the adventures of one of history's most inspiring and remarkable men.
