"Im Jahr 1878 hatte ich meinen Doktor an der Medizinischen Fakultät der Universität London gemacht und im Royal Victoria Military Hospital Netley die für Militärärzte vorgeschriebene medizinische Spezialausbildung absolviert." So beginnt ein Mythos. Sir Arthur Conan Doyles Detektivgeschichten wurden oft kopiert, vielfach verfilmt und mehr als einmal fürs Fernsehen adaptiert. Aber woher rührt eigentlich die Faszination für den kühlen Logiker Holmes? Der erste Roman wurde 1887 in Beeton's Christmas Annual veröffentlicht, Doyle trat für läppische 25 Pfund die Rechte ab.

In recent decades, Americans in Rome have revived an ancient Christian custom: the daily pilgrimage to dozens of Rome's most striking churches during Lent and Easter Week. Along this historical and spiritual pathway, pilgrims encounter hidden artistic wonders and treasured Christian commentaries while also confronting the great mysteries of the Christian faith through a program of biblical and early Christian readings. The itinerary of the Roman station church pilgrimage offers Christians an opportunity to reflect on their religion and ponder the quality of their discipleship.

Alexander Scourby was the first to record the King James Bible on audio in the early 1950s. Since then millions have been sold the World over.

Pagans explores the rise of Christianity from a surprising and unique viewpoint: that of the people who witnessed their ways of life destroyed by what seemed then a powerful religious cult. These "pagans" were actually pious Greeks, Romans, Syrians, and Gauls, who observed the traditions of their ancestors. To these devout polytheists, Christians who worshiped only one deity were immoral atheists who believed that a splash of water on the deathbed could erase a lifetime of sin.

Wenn sich das Herz nicht an die Abmachungen hält. In Never Date Your Enemy, dem zweiten New-Adult-Liebesroman in Andreas Dutters queerem Duett Love Studies, möchte sich der Doktorand Cormac mit Yiannis eigentlich nur an seinem Ex-Freund rächen ... Sich zu verlieben ist nicht Teil des Plans. Nachdem sein Ex-Freund ihm nicht nur das Herz gebrochen, sondern auch das gemeinsame Konto geplündert hat, ist Cormac Glenn mit dem Thema Liebe durch. Stattdessen will er sich voll auf seinen Doktortitel als Meteorologe an der Uni von Glasgow konzentrieren.

We often think we know what “the virtues” are, and perhaps we even dismiss them as being dry or abstract. But in The Traditional Virtues According to St. Thomas Aquinas, Jason Craig shows us how the insights and teachings of the Angelic Doctor can rescue Catholics from the common distortions of relativism, overpromising self-help programs, and impotent platitudes that reduce good living to “being nice.”

It is one of the most ancient, arcane, and to some, embarrassing rites of the Roman Catholic Church. Yet the number of priests in Italy trained as exorcists has risen tenfold over the past decade - and they are still unable to keep up with the skyrocketing demand for their services. Award-winning foreign correspondent Tracy Wilkinson reveals that "devil detox", as some call it, is a booming industry, complete with motivational speakers, international conventions, and plenty of controversy.

The Greek philosopher Socrates famously said that “the unexamined life is not worth living.” Taking this as a starting point, Eric Metaxas founded a speaking series that encouraged busy and successful professionals to attend forums and think actively about the bigger questions in life; thus Socrates in the City: Conversations on “Life, God, and Other Small Topics” was born.

In contrast to the oppressive Roman military occupation of the first century, Crossan examines the meaning of the non-violent Kingdom of God prophesized by Jesus and the equality advocated by Paul to the early Christian churches. Crossan contrasts these messages of peace with the misinterpreted apocalyptic vision from the Book of Revelation, which has been misrepresented by modern right-wing theologians and televangelists to justify US military actions in the Middle East.

We put this book together to help everyone in their day to day lives. Because of this, we have not included "curses" in the book. Do onto others as you would yourself. Because you reap what you sow. Is an ancient universal teaching not just from the Bible. It is a real teaching that must be understood by anybody that wishes to take up magic. This is practical magic at its best.

EINE STUDIE IN SCHARLACHROT spielt im viktorianischen London, wo der brillante Detektiv Sherlock Holmes und sein Mitbewohner Dr. John Watson ihre erste gemeinsame Ermittlung beginnen. Am Anfang steht ein scheinbar einfacher Mord, doch schnell entspinnt sich ein komplexes Netz von Geheimnissen und Intrigen.

Die Dynamik zwischen Holmes und Watson entwickelt sich dabei zu einer der faszinierendsten Partnerschaften der Literaturgeschichte.

Move from sinner to saint and from saved to Spirit-filled as you inscribe the essence of the gospel onto your heart and soul.

The Greek and Roman myths have never died out; in fact, they are as relevant today as ever in their sharp observations about human nature. For thousands of years, they have inspired plays, operas, and paintings; today they live on in movies and video games. Oh My Gods is a contemporary retelling of some of the most popular myths by Philip Freeman, a noted classicist. These tales of errant gods, fantastic creatures, and human heroes are brought to life in fresh and modern versions.

The Romans is the sixth book in the New Testament, and the longest of the thirteen Pauline epistles. Biblical scholars agree that it was composed by Paul the Apostle to explain that salvation is offered through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The epic battle between Armenia and Rome that lasted for centuries and was a fight for survival for Armenians.

This book welcomes listeners to appreciate the origins of Christianity within the Roman world in which early Christianity got its first foothold. It does that by immersing listeners in the life and culture of two thriving first-century towns—Pompeii and Herculaneum. Those towns (destroyed in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 CE) act as showpieces of the world into which the early Christian movement was spreading.

La Epístola a los Romanos, a menudo abreviada como Romanos, es el sexto libro del Nuevo Testamento. Los eruditos bíblicos coinciden en que fue compuesta por el apóstol Pablo para explicar que la salvación es ofrecida a través del evangelio de Jesucristo. Es la más larga de las epístolas paulinas y es considerada su «legado teológico más importante», así como su magnum opus.
