Find freedom for your soul and joy for your spirit when you discover the secret of a living a grace-filled life.Have we forgotten the meaning of grace? Preachers preach it. Teachers teach it. Theologians analyze it. Then we forget about it.In The Grace Awakening author and trusted pastor Chuck Swindoll calls you (and all Christians) to wake up and reject living in a legalistic, performance-oriented bondage. He says, "Bound and shackled by legalists'' lists of do''s and don''ts, intimidated and immobilized by others'' demands and expectations, far too many in God''s family merely exist in the tight radius of bondage, dictated by those who have appointed themselves our judge and jury." But, the God of the universe has given you, and every other Christian, the amazing, revolutionary gift of grace and freedom. This freedom and grace sets Christianity apart from every other "religion" on the face of the earth.With his characteristic style and gentle authority, Swindoll disarms the counterattack of those who do not preach grace-filled living and claim that focusing on grace would fill our churches with wild, undisciplined people with no godliness in evidence.

A spiritual book on reincarnation. Is there a life after death? Clear and unambiguous answers to an age-old question about eternal life. Where is our homeland? Are we at home in this world? Or are we only passing through? Is it visible matter that carries us – or did we come from somewhere else? Feelings and thoughts, vague inklings, have been raised by humankind since the beginning of time on the “wherefrom” and “whereto,” the “whys” and “what fors.” Seldom have these questions been answered so clearly and unmistakably as by Gabriele, the teaching prophetess and emissary of the eternal kingdom. The knowledge of reincarnation opens our eyes to understanding the meaning of our life, why we are on Earth and what task we have: namely, the chance to use our existence on Earth and develop ourselves back to what we are in our spiritual origin: divine beings, whose life lasts eternally. Reincarnation is a life-changing message, which was also known in Early Christianity before the emerging church of power supplanted it. This book delivers facts on how and why the knowledge about life after death, about karma and reincarnation disappeared from western Christianity. It answers fundamental question of humankind ...

''Tallis writes with clarity and wit'' Sebastian FaulksScience, technology and western liberal democracy have all had a dramatic impact on our quality of life. Compared to previous generations, we have unprecedented access to information, increased personal freedom, more material comforts and more possessions. Yet, even before the shock of Covid-19, more people than ever before were reporting being depressed, anxious or unfulfilled. As our material circumstances become easier, life seems to get harder. Why should this be? Shelves sag under the weight of self-help manuals and the internet is awash with the advice of role-models and celebrity gurus; however, to what extent can these sources be expected to supply meaningful, practical answers - the kind of answers relevant to sceptical individuals living in a modern, technologically advanced culture? For over a hundred years, psychotherapists have been developing and refining models of the human mind. They have endeavoured to alleviate distress and they have offered help to people who want to make better life choices. Although the clinical provenance of psychotherapy is important, the legacy of psychotherapy has much wider relevance. It can offer original perspectives on the big questions usually entrusted to philosophers and representative of faith: Who am I? ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A Times Political Book of the Year 2022A powerful and revelatory eyewitness account of the American collapse in Afghanistan, its desperate endgame, and the war’s echoing legacy.Elliot Ackerman left the American military ten years ago, but his time in Afghanistan and Iraq with the Marines and, later, as a CIA paramilitary officer marked him indelibly. When the Taliban began to close in on Kabul in August of 2021 and the Afghan regime began its death spiral, he found himself pulled back into the conflict. The official evacuation process was a bureaucratic failure that led to a humanitarian catastrophe. Ackerman was drawn into an impromptu effort to arrange flights and negotiate with both Taliban and American forces to secure the safe evacuation of hundreds. These were desperate measures taken during a desperate end to America’s longest war, but the success they achieved afforded a degree of redemption: and, for Ackerman, a chance to reconcile his past with his present.The Fifth Act is an astonishing human document that brings the weight of twenty years of war to bear on a single week at its bitter end.

An indispensable supplement to Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné, uncovering valuable new information about the artist's practice. The manner in which Bacon’s paintings evolved was misunderstood during his lifetime. Since he always painted alone in his studios, there were no witnesses to the emergence of his visceral imagery. His insistence on privacy helped generate considerable speculation about his painting process, most of it erroneous. Bacon did make one clear statement about the genesis of his paintings: ‘I sketch out very roughly on the canvas with a brush, just a vague outline of something, and then I go to work …’. Yet this fundamentally accurate summation of his technique ran counter to the received wisdom and was misunderstood or ignored. Martin Harrison's introductory essay begins by demonstrating exactly what Bacon meant, and what he did: it will show what ‘rough sketching’ signified. It also deploys X-ray and infrared images that reveal under-drawing, and analyses other features that elucidate Bacon’s methodology. Photographs of paintings briefly arrested at intermediate points before completion – taken by the few visitors to the studio allowed the privilege – help to explain later stages in painting process. Sophie Pretorius's survey incorporates every one of the images that have ... Unknown localization key: "more"
