Rarely does a book come along that shakes the foundations of the church like Whole Bible Christianity by Bruce S. Bertram. Starting with the Garden and using almost 1,500 references from every book in the Bible, Bruce first shows that there is no church in the Bible.

Der Held muss in die weite Welt hinaus und Abenteuer erleben, um ein Held zu werden – und eine Geschichte zu haben. Und was ist mit der Heldin?

Sich dem Ungewissen, Fremden auszusetzen heißt immer auch, den eigenen Ängsten, Abhängigkeiten, Verlusten ins Auge zu sehen. Und dabei zur Heldin der eigenen Geschichte zu werden.

It has become his close companion over those years, as he daily takes the time around 5:00 AM to read and study its pages.

Have we misinterpreted the purpose and place of the New Testament today?

More than 50 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote his Letter from a Birmingham Jail. Much has transpired in the half-century since, and progress has been made in the issues that were close to Dr. King’s heart. Thankfully, the burning crosses, biting police dogs, and angry mobs of that day are long gone. But in their place, passivity has emerged. A passivity that must be addressed. That’s the aim of Letters to a Birmingham Jail. A collection of essays written by men of various ethnicities and ages.

How do you eliminate a half trillion annual expense in the US alone? How do you prevent capital offenses in the first place? God has the solution: we just don't like key parts of it. We shoot ourselves in the foot in order to think of ourselves as dignified and compassionate. Yet the responsibility of public stoning (with the rest of the Biblical model) is more dignified and compassionate than any alternative. Death is the most severe court judgment in the full range of Biblical justice tools, and so it deserves primary investigation.

Può sembrare incredibile ma nella Bibbia, quando Dio sceglie una persona per affidarle una missione, si tratta quasi sempre della persona più sbagliata che si possa immaginare. Ordina a una coppia anziana e sterile di generare un popolo, chiama a sé un balbuziente perché diventi oratore e profeta, mette giustizia e verità nelle mani di ladroni e prostitute. Le figure più venerabili dell'Antico Testamento, come Abramo, Mosè, Davide e Salomone, sono in realtà segnate da una moltitudine di colpe, destinate a coprirsi di ridicolo.
