Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Navigating the Messy Reality of Christian Community Together Life among believers offers immense joy, yet it often brings unexpected friction and sometimes exasperating debate. If your heart aches for unity amidst disagreements over worship or spiritual gifts, you are not alone; the early church faced these very same conflicts. In this 13-session LifeGuide(R) Bible Study, authors Paul Stevens and Dan Williams invite you to examine the honest, unpolished portrait of the Corinthian church--a Christian community that mirrors many of our own modern struggles. By engaging with the text of 1 Corinthians, you will see that the division facing the first believers is little different from what we navigate today, offering a comforting reminder that perfection is not a prerequisite for grace.Designed as a group resource, this guide moves beyond surface-level answers to explore how the gospel heals deep-seated division. As you journey through 1 Corinthians, your group will uncover wisdom for resolving conflict, relinquishing rights for the sake of others, and rediscovering the love that binds the body of Christ together. This study offers the wisdom needed to transform the difficult challenges of life together into opportunities for spiritual growth and lasting unity.LifeGuide Bible studies feature: - A guide to getting the most out of the study, including suggestions for how to participate in individual or group study.- Leader's notes for preparation and leading a group through the study.- 'Now or Later' section following each session to help you act on what you learn.- Trustworthy biblical wisdom from experienced authors.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When did you last encounter a myth Maybe watching a movie, touring a museum or browsing the sci-fi section of your local bookstore To contemporary men and women, myths seem mere relics of a premodern era--legendary stories of capricious gods, heroic deeds and lost cities. The physical and social anxieties that gave rise to myths have been dealt with more productively in our century by science, government and art. Right 'Not at all,' says Philip Sampson. In 6 Modern Myths he shows that all societies, even sophisticated and skeptical societies like ours, nurture myths that distort both science and history to further cultural goals. Such myths are important guides to a society's understanding of itself.How often have you heard the story, for example, of plucky Galileo, armed merely with a telescope and reason, doing battle with a superstitious church only to be condemned as a heretic and harshly imprisoned Even though most of the 'facts' commonly assumed to be true about this story are just not so, the romanticized myth of Galileo boldly marches forward.Sampson dispels this myth and five others--that the rise of Christianity led to ecological crisis, that missionaries have oppressed native peoples, that Darwin's evolutionary ideas were embraced by scientists but vilified by religious leaders, that the church was responsible for persecution of witches, and that Christianity teaches the repression of bodily pleasures--all woven nearly inextricably into the fabric ofChristianity and Western civilization. To tease apart historical fact from cultural fiction Sampson tells different stories, rich in historical detail, fascinating characters and surprising twists. 6 Modern Myths offers you a historical tapestry that unsettles conventional wisdom and provides an enlightening look at the complexities of truth.…
