Historia De La Conquista De Am – (Spanish)
$19.99
Jose Luis Rivera Pagan en su libro Historia de la conquista de America Evangelizacion y violencia nos describe como este libro se concibio en medio de los intensos debates sobre el quinto centenario del “descubrimiento de America”. Esos debates estimularon y fertilizaron la investigacion historica sobre los pueblos americanos. Tambien propicio la publicacion de grandes textos relativos al descubrimiento y la conquista, algunos ineditos durante varios siglos.
El libro se divide en tres partes. La primera –Descubrimiento, conquista y evangelizacion– relata los hechos desde una perspectiva critica, ante la cual se desvela el vinculo intimo entre el descubrimiento y la conquista, como una toma de posesion de tierras y personas, legitimada por conceptos, imagenes y simbolos religiosos. La segunda –Libertad y servidumbre en la conquista de America– analiza los elementos centrales de la gran porfia teorica de la conquista: la licitud de la abrogacion de la autonomia de los pueblos aborigenes y los sistemas de trabajo forzoso –esclavitud y encomienda– que se les impuso, tanto a ellos como a las comunidades africanas que se importaban en gran numero, como seres desprovistos de libertad politica y autonomia personal. La tercera –Hacia una critica teologica de la conquista– intenta desarrollar justamente lo que su titulo sugiere: una evaluacion no panegirica de la conquista a la luz de los conceptos, imagenes y simbolos evangelicos que ella misma enarbolo como su paradigma de legitimidad.
History of the conquest of America
Jose Luis Rivera Pagan in his book, The Conquest of America: Evangelization and violence, describes how this book was conceived in the midst of the intense debates on the fifth centenary of the “discovery of America”. These debates stimulated and fertilized historical research on the American peoples. It also encouraged the publication of the great texts relating to the discovery and conquest, some of which had remained unpublished for several centuries.
The book is divided into three parts. The first – “Discovery, Conquest and Evangelization”- relates the facts from a critical perspective, revealing the intimate link between discovery and conquest, as a takeover of land and people, legitimized by religious concepts, images and symbols. The second – “Freedom and servitude in the conquest of America”- analyzes the central elements of the great theoretical challenge of the conquest: the lawfulness of the abrogation of the autonom

Pentecost : A Day Of Power For All People
$20.00“The power of Pentecost is inseparable from the good news of the Christ who is proclaimed in the Gospels, in accordance with the Scriptures.”
Pentecost may well be the most misconstrued day on the church calendar. A long legacy of cessationism has drained Pentecost of much of its significance, and it’s largely misunderstood in many Western churches today, if not outright ignored.
That’s not the case in Emilio Alvarez’s tradition, though. In this Fullness of Time volume, the Pentecostal bishop and theologian offers us a rich biblical and theological introduction to the day of Pentecost and sets it in its liturgical context–not only in the Protestant tradition but also in Catholic, Orthodox, and Pentecostal expressions. The result is a rich theological feast and an invitation to find afresh the power of the gospel for all peoples.
Each volume in the Fullness of Time series invites readers to engage with the riches of the church year, exploring the traditions, prayers, Scriptures, and rituals of the seasons of the church calendar.
