"Vejo hoje estar acontecendo uma crise humanitária com a vida humana colocada no limite. A vida humana passou a ser tratada com desprezo, tratada sem nenhum amor e sem nenhum valor. Há aqueles que comem lixo, que vivem sem nenhuma condição de dignidade. Dormir na calçada, morrer de frio, são situações que vemos no cotidiano de uma cidade como São Paulo, com aproximadamente 42.000 pessoas vivendo em situação de rua. A crise humanitária é evidenciada pela forma como toda essa situação acontece." Convidamos você a refletir junto com Padre Júlio Lancellotti o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

A perfeição do amor não é amar pessoas perfeitas, a perfeição do amor é amar sempre a quem quer que seja. É isso que faz com que o amor seja algo a caminho. O amor perfeito é uma flor. O que conta aqui é a perseverança, a persistência de as pessoas dizerem: "Mas você está há 40 anos nisso, o que que adiantou? O que é que resolveu?" Convidamos você a refletir junto com Padre Júlio Lancellotti o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

Será que precisamos falar de amor ou demonstrar através de ações e pensamentos? Será que ambos se completam? Ou será que apenas ao final da vida somos capazes de manifestar, com simplicidade, o nosso cuidado amoroso? Convidamos você a refletir junto com Monja Coen o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

O amor tem uma concretude. É impossível falar dele somente como algo ideal, como um amor estratosférico. Convidamos você a refletir junto com Padre Júlio Lancellotti o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

Amar é uma concessão que não legitima o sofrimento e a opressão. O critério para uma concessão é a promoção humana. Se a minha intervenção oprime, então eu não tenho direito de ser assim. Convidamos você a refletir junto com Padre Júlio Lancellotti o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

O amor é um exercício de acolhimento da nossa individualidade e da complexidade que nos constitui como seres humanos. O amor é um espaço de segurança para ser quem se é em liberdade. O amor é um nariz de palhaço que nos livra da mediação da culpa e do medo. O amor é o direito de se querer bem e ter gratidão pela vida. Convidamos você a refletir junto com Pastor Henrique Vieira o exercício do amor na sua plenitude.

Most Christians have never been challenged to grow up because the institutional church is a religion and not the family of God. Most of what is taught about the Bible is taught out of context and the false prophets are multiplying. When will we stop playing church and become the body of Christ that the Father ordained us to be? Who are you and why are you here? This book will challenge you to give up your religion for a true relationship with the God and Father of our Lord Jesus.

Strongholds are anything that holds power over you. This should hopefully be Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, but often it is sin and darkness. Millions of people are living in misery today because Satan holds sway over them. This book will show you the way out of darkness and into the light. How to fight off your strongholds by uniting with or reuniting with the spirit of God.

Jude Commentary is about the Bible book of Jude, with simple and easy to understand explanations.

On a visit to Jerusalem, Bruce Feiler has a revelation: the stories of the Bible occurred in real places, places he could visit today. So he sets out on a perilous 10,000 mile journey retracing the greatest stories ever told.

This book is designed to help people answer the question as to whether or not it is God's will to heal. The Scriptures are used to illustrate that it is God's will to heal.

More and more, the world is becoming multi-ethnic and multi-religious. Wherever you live, you are coming in contact with people of other ethnic and religious backgrounds. We need to understand how to communicate with them. John wrote his gospel when he was living in Ephesus, a city with a multi-ethic and multi-religious society. People from all over the empire came to Ephesus because it was the political, social and economic center for this region.

We live in a church age of such profound apostasy that a large segment of evangelicalism is unable to biblically explain what it is to be a "Christian". This is largely due to a wholesale neglect of the doctrine of regeneration - that supernatural impartation of spiritual life to the spiritually dead that causes individuals to savingly believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and so radically transforms their natures that the very desires of their hearts and acts of their wills reflect the nature of God who has made them new creatures in Christ. This is the subject of this little book.

We are all prone to debilitating physical and spiritual weakness. But knowing how to find spiritual strength in those seasons of weakness - especially in the face of persecution - is elusive for most. Timothy, the apostle Paul's son in the faith, struggled with this very thing. But God revealed to him some very practical ways to tap into the resources he already possessed, bringing him much needed comfort and encouragement, while at the same time giving him power to persevere and prevail in the face of overwhelming forces of opposition.

There is perhaps no greater proof of man's innate sinfulness and hostility toward God than the staggering immorality of our culture. Most people, even many Christians, have either a distorted or a non-existent understanding of how God views his or her body, the primary focus of this book. As result, they are vulnerable to the deceptions and threats of the sexual revolutionaries. By examining and obeying God's perspective, we are equipped to navigate a culture saturated with sexual perversion and prurience, and we learn how to walk on a godly path of blessing and joy.

The New Testament book of Jude is a brief yet powerful treatise on the perils of false teaching within the Christian church. Dr. Herndon, in this new passage by passage commentary, makes the argument that Biblical doctrines are like dominos - they stand or fall together as a body of beliefs. Dominos is the first in a new series of dynamic commentaries.

Come join me on our journey together, with tales of hope, inspiration, and redemption - and our long dark journey back into the light of God....

This is the story of the resurrection of Jesus Christ the Son of God the Messiah. As the angel said to Mary and the other women, "He is not here. For he has risen as he said. Come see the place where the Lord lay." Many have the resurrection power while some do not have a clue about what it is or how they can get it. The Bible tells us what we are in Christ Jesus the Lord. We are no more outcasts but now are we the sons of God. Not children only born of flesh and blood but children born of the spirit of God.

Losing a pet is an experience that leaves a gaping hole in our hearts. I find that just talking about a rainbow bridge doesn't really help. It is a beautiful thought, but I am a Bible-believing Christian, so that led me to look up all references to rainbow in the Bible. Although there is no mention of a "rainbow bridge," what I found was that the rainbow covenant God made with Noah wasn't just to mankind but to every living creature that was with him! It was a covenant between God and all of his creation! God made an eternal, binding promise to animals!

An easy approach to get kids familiar with Jesus. Who Was Jesus, Really? takes us further into deeper teachings and the works of Jesus, reveals Jesus as the healer in a world filled with sickness and disease, and how it is a faith booster for you to claim your healing in Jesus’ name.

Open the book and open your heart!
