Idylls And Rambles: Lighter Christian Essays

<DIV><P>Major feature films such <I>The Passion of the Christ</I> and<I> Risen</I>, and books such as Bill O'Reilly's <I>Killing Jesus</I> raise many questions about one of the greatest controversies in history--what really happened to the crucified body of Jesus of Nazareth.</P><P>Using a popular question-and-answer format, this book examines the historical evidence concerning the fate of Jesus. Did Jesus really die on the cross? If so, what became of his body? Was it stolen? Misplaced? Is the resurrection a cleverly devised plot to found a new religion? Did the disciples of Jesus hallucinate? Is the Resurrection of Jesus a myth developed decades later, after the original disciples' experience of Jesus was distorted by a subsequent generation? Or did Jesus rise from the dead, as he promised and as his disciples came to believe and sacrifice their lives to proclaim?</P><P>Carl Olson carefully weighs the evidence with in-depth analysis. Whether you are a believer, a skeptic, or something in between, be prepared to have your thinking challenged by this provocative and insightful book.</P></DIV>

Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?

<P><B>Peter Kreeft</B> presents a philosophical and spiritual exploration of the mystery&#160;of pain and suffering, offering insights for those seeking meaning&#160;in hardship through personal reflection and Christian theology. It is an&#160;insightful guide for those who have experienced seemingly pointless suffering,&#160;combining personal experience with wisdom to address the “why” question&#160;from a faith-based perspective.</P><P>This account of a real and honest personal quest on the meaning of suffering&#160;is both engaging and convincing. Written from a deep well of wisdom derived&#160;from experience and careful observation,<I> Making Sense Out of Suffering</I> is a&#160;book for all who are hungry for insight into the great mystery of suffering.</P>

Making Sense out of Suffering

<DIV>In this book, Chesterton's brilliance as a writer and thinker again shine through as he explains his understanding of Catholicism and the Catholic Church and how its appeal to reason and truth eventually won him over. For Chesterton, two essentials lay at the heart of conversion, and without these, a man misses the point of it all. He describes these in his own words: ?One is that he believes it to be solid objective truth, which is true whether he likes it or not; and the other is that he seeks liberation from his sins."" That is why Chesterton became a Catholic, and what he describes in his unique and colorful way in this book. <P> </P></DIV>

The Catholic Church and Conversion

<DIV><P>With brilliance and creativity, Peter Kreeft has taken all of the sayings of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew and provided us with imagined questions for each in a totally contemporary setting. Kreeft asks 285 questions in the form of “letters to Jesus”, each in the voice of a different questioner. The answers of Jesus are taken verbatim from Matthew and printed upside down so that the reader must invert the book to read them.</P><P>Along with its unique format, the genius of <I>Letters to Jesus </I>is its clever matching of questions to answers that get to the essence of Jesus’ teachings as they apply to our world today.</P></DIV>

Letters to Jesus (Answered)

<DIV><P>The widely read author and philosopher Peter Kreeft presents a unique book about the important beliefs that Catholics and Protestants share in common. Inspired by Christ's prayer for unity in the Gospel of John and Saint John Paul II's encyclical <I>Ut Unum Sint</I>, Kreeft demonstrates that Christian reunification is possible. While he acknowledges that there are still significant differences between Catholics and Protestants, he emphasizes that they agree on the single most important issue: justification.</P><P>The style of this book is modeled on Pascal, Solomon, and Jesus: short answers and single points to ponder rather than long strings of argument. The writing is direct, simple, and confrontational, but vertically rather than horizontally by ""directing arrows not against each other (Protestant or Catholic) but against our own hearts and minds and wills.""</P><P>The purpose of this book, writes Kreeft, is to be ""like an Australian sheepdog, herding and hectoring Christ's separated sheep back to His face. For that is the only way they can ever return back to each other.""</P></DIV>

<p>Dr. Owen Whitfield is the elderly Oxford professor of history who first appeared in Michael O''Brien''s novel <em>The Father''s Tale</em>. In the events of The Sabbatical, which occur sometime later, Dr. Whitfield is looking forward to a sabbatical year of peace and quiet, gardening in his backyard, and tinkering with what he calls his latest "unpublishable book".</p>
<p>As the year begins, he is drawn by a series of seeming coincidences into involvement with a group of characters from across Europe, including a family that has been the target of assassination attempts by unknown powers. During his journey to Romania, the situation in which he finds himself becomes more sinister than it first seemed.</p>
<p>The story deals with the tension between fatalism and the providential understanding of history, with the courage and love that are necessary for navigating through a confusion of signs, and with the triumph of faith and reason over the forces of destruction.</p>
