＜p＞This book is a prolonged contemplative gaze upon the central mysteries of human existence illumined from that core mystery that gives meaning to all things: the essence of all being as love and intimacy in the very likeness of the Trinity. The reflections contained here seek to sink their roots down into the foundational experiences of human existence, in its most basic origin and meaning, and thus also to stretch to the true extent of human desire and aspiration, which is fulfilled only in Christ, the Redeemer of Man. In him, who reveals to us the love of the Father by the gift of the Holy Spirit, we come to know, with awe and wonder, our true dignity, and to rejoice in this mystery before him, even as this awareness blossoms in a capacity to love and care for our brothers and sisters too. Thus it opens up the path for us to begin to see the whole of created reality bathed in the light of the relations of the Persons of the Trinity, and to live, in the whole rich fabric of our life, in the very likeness of the Love who created us for himself--the eternally blessed Father, Son, and Holy Spirit--and in whom alone our restless hearts find definitive and everlasting rest.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞"Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales" is a captivating collection that showcases the imaginative narratives and moral depth characteristic of Hans Christian Andersen's work. Blending elements of fantasy with poignant social commentary, Andersen's tales, such as "The Little Mermaid" and "The Ugly Duckling," embody the spirit of 19th-century European romanticism while also revealing the human condition's complexities. His lyrical prose and vivid imagery invite readers into fantastical worlds, yet each story conveys universal truths about love, identity, and the passage of time, reflecting the author's keen observations of societal norms and personal struggles. Hans Christian Andersen, born in Denmark in 1805, faced a tumultuous childhood marked by poverty and hardship. These experiences profoundly influenced his storytelling, allowing him to weave empathy into his narratives, which transcend cultural boundaries. His unique position as a storyteller, who oscillated between the worlds of childlike wonder and adult profundity, has established him as a pioneer in the realm of modern fairy tales. His extensive travels and encounters with various cultures further enriched his creative palette, enabling him to craft tales that resonate universally. This anthology is essential for lovers of literature, art, and folklore who seek to explore the delicate interplay between fantasy and reality. Andersen's timeless fairy tales not only entertain but also challenge readers to reflect on their own lives and aspirations, making this collection a must-read for both the young and the young at heart.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Wicca's Charm Understanding the Spiritual Hunger Behind the Rise of Modern Witchcraft and Pagan Spirituality【電子書籍】[ Catherine Sanders ]

＜p＞How Wiccan Spirituality Is Filling a Spiritual Hunger in America＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hundreds of thousands of people practice Wicca and other forms of modern Pagan spirituality in America today, and journalist Catherine Edwards Sanders wanted to understand why such belief systems are rapidly attracting followers. When a routine magazine assignment led her to realize that her stereotype of Wiccans as eccentric spiritual outsiders was embarrassingly misinformed, her curiosity compelled her to understand the Wiccan mystique. With the support of a journalism fellowship, Sanders spent a year interviewing neo-Pagans and witches and found that the lure of this emerging spirituality was not the occult, but rather a search for meaning in an increasingly fragmented and materialistic culture.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With keen observation, challenging insight, and compassionate critique, Sanders produces a lively narrative about what she experienced and discovered during her travels: Halloween rituals in Salem, anti-globalization protests in New York, and the contrasts between what seekers find in neo-Paganism that they perceive as lacking in Christian tradition. In ＜em＞Wicca’s Charm,＜/em＞ Sanders explains the powerful attraction of an increasingly mainstream spirituality that celebrates the wonder of creation and the life-giving energy of women while also exploring why Christian churches often fail to engage these seekers, but how they can learn to tap into the deep roots of Christianity to nourish the hunger of so many who seek a holistic and authentic worship experience.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Knowledge of the Holy The Attributes of God. Their Meaning in the Christian Life【電子書籍】[ A. W. Tozer ]

＜p＞This classic of Christian testimony and devotion explores the attributes of God in words that fly straight to the heart. A superb aid to strengthening and deepening the spiritual life, each chapter begins with a prayer, lucidly discusses a divine aspect -- from God's infinity to God's love -- and relates that aspect to today's world, while pointing always to God's wonder and inscrutability." A. W. Tozer asserts that the cause of many of our modern spiritual woes is the loss in today's church of a lofty concept of God. He argues persuasively that the cure lies in our rediscovery of God's majesty. "True religion confronts earth with heaven and brings eternity to bear upon time," says the author in his preface, "The messenger of Christ, though he speaks from God, must also, as the Quakers used to say 'speak to the condition' of his hearers; otherwise he will speak a language known only to himself. His message must be not only timeless but timely. He must speak to his own generation." The message of this book is indeed both timeless and timely. Tozer is primarily concerned with the loss of the concept of 'majesty' from the popular mind and more importantly in the thinking of the church. He sees the church as having surrendered her once lofty concept of God - not deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge. With this comes a further loss of religious awe and a sense of the divine presence, of an appropriate spirit of worship and of our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring silence. Tozer attempts to address this problem, to go back to the causes of the decline and to understand and correct the errors that have given rise to our loss of a sense of the holy. "It is impossible to keep our moral practices sound and our inward attitudes right while our idea of God is erroneous or inadequate," he tells us.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Revelation of Jesus Christ A Disciple’s Commentary【電子書籍】[ Jon Scott Birch ]

＜p＞"The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" (Rev 19:10) and a prophetic perspective promotes purpose. Yet in a world swiftly growing callous, true purpose and meaning are fading. Many of Jesus' disciples today have "lost their first love," which is Jesus himself (Rev 2:4). And too many souls overall miss the wonder, inspiration, and comfort gained by those who would endeavor toward fuller comprehension of the book of Revelation: "Blessed are they who read and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near" (Rev 1:3). Neglect of the Holy Spirit, slothfulness, fear, and the ongoing confusion generated by competing interpretations and bad theology are the primary obstacles between an individual and the liberation to be had by reading the last book of the Bible. We must not forget that while the apostle John wrote the book of Revelation, its author is Jesus Christ, and he is not an author of confusion but of peace (1 Cor 14:33). This commentary presents a practical, discipleship-based perspective toward following Jesus into the very heart of his Revelation. So as the end of this clamorous age approaches, may we truly hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches!＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In "Recreation," Viscount Edward Grey of Fallodon offers a reflective exploration of nature and leisure, capturing the serene interplay between human experience and the natural world. Written in a lyrical prose style, the book unfolds through vivid descriptions and philosophical insights, embodying the early 20th-century literary context that emphasizes a harmonious relationship with nature amidst the rapid industrialization of post-Victorian England. Drawing on his own experiences as a statesman and naturalist, Grey weaves personal anecdotes with broader observations, resulting in a rich tapestry that invites contemplation of our recreational pursuits and their deeper significance. Viscount Grey, known for his role as foreign secretary during critical moments leading up to World War I, possessed an intrinsic appreciation for the outdoors, shaped by his upbringing in the picturesque settings of Northumberland.

"Recreation" emerges not only as a literary endeavor but as a manifesto for mindful engagement with the environment, revealing the author's desire to inspire a sense of wonder and responsibility in the face of encroaching modernity. I highly recommend "Recreation" to readers who seek a thoughtful meditation on the interconnectedness of leisure, nature, and the human spirit.
