    Notes&lt;/p&gt;

A thoughtful, encouraging reason to believe that God is good, even when life is not. Many of us want to trust God, but we just can’t. We have trust issues. We see heartbreak in the world, or experience it personally, and don’t understand how a good God could have allowed it. We have questions. <ul><li>How could a good God allow so much pain? </li><li>Why would God allow this to happen?</li><li>If God could have stopped it, why didn’t he stop it?&nbsp;</li><li>Why is God doing this to me? </li><li>Do I even want to trust in a God who would allow this?&nbsp;</li></ul> Ryan Maher—pastor and co-leader of digital ministries that reach hundreds of millions each month, including Trust God Bro, Her True Worth, and The Prayer Channel—knows the kind of gut-wrenching, life-changing pain that can make a person question everything. Ryan draws from his own story and those of others to wrestle with the hard questions about God’s goodness, human suffering, and what trust really looks like. This is not a book of easy answers, but an honest path back to the God who invites our questions and walks with us through the pain &nbsp; With biblical clarity and deep empathy, this book offers hope for the doubter, healing for the wounded, and a vision of a God who meets us in our pain, redeems what’s been broken, and proves Himself faithful—again and again.

Anhängern des rechten Protestantismus ist ein Bibelfundamentalismus gemein, der sich auf ihr Selbstverständnis gegenüber anderen Konfessionen, Religionen und Weltanschauungen auswirkt und theologische Deutungsmuster mit Islamfeindlichkeit, Homosexuellen- und Genderfeindlichkeit sowie Antisemitismus verbindet. Jan Christian Pinsch nimmt diese Kategorien durch eine Netzwerk- und Dokumentenanalyse in Lippe genauer in den Blick und widmet sich der Haltung der Akteure zur Erinnerungskultur nach 1945 sowie zur Demokratie. Aus einer historisch-theologischen Perspektive plädiert er dafür, dass Kirche und Theologie zu diesen Entwicklungen nicht schweigen dürfen.

NATIONAL BESTELLER From award-winning health and science correspondent for NPR News and contributor to CBS Sunday Morning comes an illuminating road map for women to reclaim their reserves of power and improving their physical and emotional health in midlife. Not long ago, celebrated journalist Allison Aubrey was having breakfast with her youngest child, who suddenly turned to her and said: “Stop looking at me.” In that moment, as her daughter signaled a need for independence, Aubrey felt a sting, like she’d been fired. She reminded herself: teenager, individuation. It’s her job to separate. But...ouch! That moment was a microcosm of what felt like a crisis of both identity and purpose. Many women come upon such feelings of bewilderment at midlife: Beyond being a mother, beyond work, who am I? After years of striving, how do we broaden our horizons past parenting and a paycheck? What else is out there, now that the badges of achievement have started to feel less important? Aubrey had watched colleagues retire, leaving behind the frenetic pace and excitement of work life, only to flail from a lack of purpose and connection. If the smartest people she knew were struggling, who was thriving? Who was getting it right? To find the answers, she took a sabbatical and set out on a curiosity tour. She tuned her searchlight for people oozing with energy and adventure. Deep within, she feared she wouldn’t find them, or that she would be disappointed. Maybe the best years are behind us? What she discovered “changed my life,” Aubrey says. The result is her first book, Your Turn: How to Create a Midlife You Love, which answers the question What’s next? with an electrifying message and a winning and deeply practical road map to reimagine your life. Aubrey presents a captivating collection of women, ages 45 to 105, who cultivated creativity, connection, and joy, showing how it’s possible to find meaning and momentum in midlife. She takes what she’s learned, from scores of fascinating women she met both on this journey and in her decades of reporting as a journalist, to give readers a playbook for what could be next. She weaves together incredibly powerful insights and resources of rediscovery to help you reignite your passions and hit your stride in midlife and beyond. She cuts through the clutter of health and self-improvement advice and offers readers indispensable, evidence-backed strategies to thrive. A kind of What Color Is Your Parachute? for middle age, this book provides us surprisingly simple yet specific steps we can take now to make the most of our third turns. Aubrey combines the rigor her audiences have come to expect with the attunement, inquisitiveness, and sense of service that have made so many of her health stories go viral. This book is the new blueprint for your midlife reawakening, with an empowering, essential message for women: The best time of your life starts now.

How to Create a Midlife You Love

Your Turn

Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament 2. Reihe

In this book, Matthew Michael examines the strategic uses of weeping scenes as a powerful tool of protest, subversion, and defiance by providing fresh perspectives on the critical mapping of sounds against opponents in the book of Revelation. Treating God, Jesus, angels, creation, heaven, and earth as embodiment of sounds, he describes the intriguing acoustic insights into the politics of sounds in the book of Revelation. While past scholarship on the book of Revelation has engaged its graphic images, the author analyses the acoustic poetics in its weaponization of sounds against enemies. By tuning into the poetics of sound, he succinctly offers a new perspective on Revelation which does not only speak to biblical readers alone but also to anyone interested in how sound, grief, and resistance can shake empires and envision justice.

Soundscape, Weeping Scenes, and Resistance in the Acoustic Poetics of Revelation 18

This edited collection investigates the religious roots of marriage and divorce in Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox nations across Europe and shows how their laws have evolved and diverged, from 1700 through to the present day. The eighteenth century was a pivotal period for the rules governing marriage and divorce, with the authority to establish and adjudicate on them shifting from church to state. The Formation and Dissolution of Marriage, Religious Roots, and Diverging Histories evaluates these historical developments, paying particular attention to the waxing or waning influence of religious institutions, values, and norms, and asking what other proposals for reform might have been on the agenda. As Volume 1 of A History of Family Law in Europe, this book examines how, and to what extent, marriage and divorce are regulated in the written texts of Europe's various religious traditions. The contributors analyse each system's teachings on marriage formation, marital impediments, and dissolubility, including ideas on the socially binding character of those precepts. Jurisdiction-specific chapters focusing on countries across Northern, Central, Southern, and Eastern Europe explore the regulation of marriage formation and dissolution in the context of religion and other cultural influences. The Formation and Dissolution of Marriage, Religious Roots, and Diverging Histories brings together the insights of an international team of leading marriage-law scholars from across Europe, and is a significant resource for scholars of family law, legal history, and the history of religion.

A NEXT BIG IDEA CLUB MUST-READ BOOK • From one of our foremost psychologists, a trailblazing book that turns the idea of a good life on its head and urges us to embrace the transformative power of variety and experience • The guidebook to the pyshologically rich life “Dr. Oishi’s enthusiasm for a big and bold existence is infectious” —The Wall Street Journal "Life in Three Dimensions will give you new insights into the many ways to live well, including advice on how to pick the one most likely to be right for you." —Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation Shigehiro Oishi's father has lived his entire life in a small mountain town in Japan. But as a young man Oishi felt compelled to follow a winding road that led him far from home. He became an award-winning psychology professor, seeking to know which path—to stay or to go, the familiar or the unknown, his father’s path or his own—is the better path to a good life. In Life in Three Dimensions, Oishi shares his journey of discovery and offers readers a groundbreaking new understanding of happiness. What makes for a good life, he asks? Is it the simple, predictable pleasures we call happiness? Or can happiness lead to complacency and regret? Is the answer a deep sense of meaning and purpose? Or can a life of purpose invite narrow or misplaced loyalties? Both happiness and meaning as paths to a good life have decades of scientific research to support them. But in recent years, Oishi has uncovered a third dimension to a good life, psychological richness. A psychologically rich life prioritizes curiosity, exploration, and a variety of experiences. These can be as simple as taking a walk, as complex as moving to a new country. Key to a psychologically rich experience is a shift in perspective that helps us grow. Life in Three Dimensions explores lives defined by psychological richness: those of prominent people like Steve Jobs, Oliver Sacks and Alison Gopnik; characters from literature and film; and ordinary people who--in college, at midlife, and beyond--embraced uncertainty and challenge to deepen and enrich their lives. In this wise and delightful book, Oishi shows how anyone at any age can build a fuller, more authentic life.

New York Times Bestseller • An Oprah Book Club Pick“Powerful . . . [Kingsolver] has with infinitely steady hands worked the prickly threads of religion, politics, race, sin and redemption into a thing of terrible beauty.” —Los Angeles Times Book ReviewIn celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. The Poisonwood Bible established Barbara Kingsolver, recipient of the National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, as one of the most thoughtful and daring of modern writers. Taking its place alongside the classic works of postcolonial literature, it is a suspenseful epic of one family's tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of three decades in Africa.The story is told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce, evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it—from garden seeds to Scripture—is calamitously transformed on African soil.The novel is set against one of the most dramatic political chronicles of the twentieth century: the Congo's fight for independence from Belgium, the murder of its first elected prime minister, the CIA coup to install his replacement, and the insidious progress of a world economic order that robs the fledgling African nation of its autonomy. Orleanna Price reconstructs the story of her evangelist husband's part in the Western assault on Africa, a tale indelibly darkened by her own losses and unanswerable questions about her own culpability. Also narrating the story are her four daughters—the teenaged Rachel; adolescent twins Leah and Adah; and Ruth May, a prescient five-year-old. These sharply observant girls, who arrive in the Congo with racial preconceptions forged in 1950s Georgia, will be marked in surprisingly different ways by their father's intractable mission, and by Africa itself.Ultimately each must strike her own separate path to salvation. Their passionately intertwined stories become a compelling exploration of moral risk and personal responsibility. <ul><li>A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look.</li><li>HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, children’s books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations.</li><li>AMERICA’S PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit.</li><li>AMERICA 250: The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for America’s 250th anniversary celebrations.</li></ul>
