Angeles – (Spanish)
$14.99
Una fascinante e inspiradora mirada a la funcion de los angeles en la vida de las personas: como nos guian hacia y a traves de la experiencia salvadora de Cristo.
Y si el cielo estuviera mas cerca de lo que pensamos? Y si sus fronteras se entrecruzaran con las nuestras? Y si los angeles entraran y salieran de nuestro poroso presente, este que nos parece tan real y solido?
Todo es cierto; la realidad puede parecernos oscura en este momento, pero para los primeros cristianos era resplandeciente. A traves de sus escritos, sermones, cantos y arte, los creyentes de la antiguedad confesaban una poderosa y vivida creencia de que los angeles nos ayudan a perseverar en nuestro trayecto hacia Dios.
Angeles se remonta a los primeros cristianos y presenta a los lectores modernos una perspectiva de los angeles a traves de los ojos y experiencias de aquellos: como entendieron los dominios angelicos, la guia y proteccion de los angeles y las luchas contra el espiritu maligno y sus demonios. Ya sea en la prueba o en la tentacion, en la alabanza o en la oracion, los angeles estan presentes, listos para ayudarnos y reconfortarnos, guiarnos y corregirnos, caminar con nosotros hasta el borde de la muerte y mas alla, acompaandonos hasta que estemos en los brazos de Cristo.
Explores the relationship between people and angels, through the eyes of the early church.
Heaven is closer than we realize. Its boundaries overlap our own, and angels move in and out of our porous present, this moment that seems to us so solid and concrete. If that reality seems dim to us now, it beamed for the early Christians. Through their writings, sermons, songs, and art, the ancient faithful confessed a powerful and vivid belief that angels help carry us on our journey to God.
Rooted in the Scripture and following this ancient understanding, Angeles reveals:
*the role that angels play in the lives of people and in God’s plan of salvation
*the different ranks and functions of angels
*how Satan and his demons fell from grace and plagued humans
*the functions of guardian angels and how God assigns them to fit our personal needs
*how guardian angels help us resist evil, temptation, and the devil
*the way angels join with us in our prayers, even adding their own to ours
*the service angels provide in worship
Featuring examples of angels in ancient icons and frescoes and supported by extensive research on the early church and its pastors, poets, theologians, and artist

Psychology Of The Fruit Of The Spirit
$29.99For centuries, the fruit of the Spirit has rightfully served as a wellspring of reflection on the virtues that epitomize the Christian life and character-building. However, the notion of the fruit of the Spirit is not limited solely to forming the biblical foundation of ethical living.
Psychologist and theologian Zoltan Dornyei argues that if we understand the nine attributes collectively as a concise portrayal of the ideal Christian self, this approach places the notion of the fruit of the Spirit at the intersection of several important theological themes, such as being conformed to the divine image, the gradual advancement of the kingdom of God, and new creation. In The Psychology of the Fruit of the Spirit, Dornyei offers a scholarly exposition of the relevant theological content associated with the fruit of the Spirit. Complementing his theological reflections with findings from the field of psychology, he brings expertise in both psychology and theology to bear on this important biblical concept. His integrated perspective helps to uncover the full meaning and theological potential of the fruit of the Spirit by helping to clarify the nature of its nine facets, defining broader psychological dimensions that underlie the fruit, and offering practical lessons for cultivating it in the Christian life.
