The Unity of Scripture

release date: Jun 01, 2011
The Unity of Scripture
The Unity of Scripture is different from any other book on the Bible. It is divided into three distinct sections (Origins, Symbolism, and Prophecy). Understanding each of these, in context, is necessary for a correct understanding of the Bible. This book shows how these three aspects interconnect. Daniel Brown takes a rational approach concerning the Bible without diminishing its authority or questioning its correctness. There are many diagrams and illustrations which very effectively clarify the author''s assertions. The author''s ability to graphically diagram scriptural passages in order to compare them to other biblical passages is unique and makes their interconnectedness more readily apparent. This book also illuminates many of the mysteries in the Bible in a simple and understandable way. The Unity of Scripture will inspire awe at the perfection demonstrated by the Word of God. Topics include: The creation week, The Tabernacle of Moses, The ancient calendar, The Holy days, and the lineage of Jesus, The timing of the crucifixion, The prophecies of Daniel, Revelation and Jesus and the theories of Einstein.

Masks of Mystery

release date: Jan 01, 1997
Masks of Mystery
In this book the author walks the reader through the nature of the arts, the nature of Christian faith, and the historical factors which have brought us to our current crises of faith and imagination. There is a connection between religious faith and artistic expression which rests in the archetypal images of human culture. In our era, that connection seems to be more of a disjunction. Current artistic expressions do not seem to project the same images as religious faith confesses. This is especially true in Western civilization. Both the arts and religious faith (specifically Christianity) are approached as manifestations of the activity of human beings. Only later do these activities become intellectualized in aesthetics and theology. Understanding the artist and the believer as existing human beings, the perceived disjunction can be eclipsed when we grasp the context in which the human artist and the human believer in this century find themselves at odds. The crux of the disjunction is not so much the artists'' disbelief (as religious believers seem to assume) as it is the failure of traditional expressions of belief in meeting human needs and a concurrent tightening of the grip by believers on the traditional metaphors of their faith. Perhaps the resolution will come in the new metaphors of the artists and a simultaneous turning by believers to give attention to the attempts of artists to speak mystery anew.

Dissociation et mémoire traumatique

release date: Aug 14, 2019
Dissociation et mémoire traumatique
Les troubles dissociatifs sont une réponse aux traumas extrêmes subis pendant l’enfance et ancrés dans la mémoire. Ces troubles se manifestent par une altération de la conscience avec des pertes fonctionnelles (amnésie, troubles de l’identité, paralysie, pertes de sensations...) ou des intrusions (flashbacks, voix...). Souvent confondus avec d’autres pathologies, notamment les psychoses dissociatives, ils sont un concept fondamental en psychotraumatologie et posent de difficiles problèmes médicolégaux en criminologie. Ce livre, premier du genre en langue française, fait le point sur la recherche scientifique concernant les troubles dissociatifs, ses expressions cliniques et leur traitement.

Uma Nova Introdução ao Islã

release date: Aug 10, 2022
Uma Nova Introdução ao Islã
ORIGENS, TENDÊNCIAS E PRÁTICAS MUÇULMANAS NO MUNDO CONTEMPORÂNEO O que os cristãos precisam saber sobre os muçulmanos, o fundador do islã, seu livro sagrado e suas tradições? "Uma Nova Introdução ao Islã" apresenta as questões históricas, religiosas, sociais e geográficas que influenciaram a tradição islâmica e sua compreensão sobre Deus, Jesus, ética e outros assuntos que moldaram o pensamento e a formação da religião islâmica. Uma obra abrangente e que se tornou um clássico. Escrita por um notável acadêmico cristão, que oferece ao leitor os estudos mais recentes, as tendências, bem como a complexa relação do Ocidente com o islã, o radicalismo islâmico e a disseminação do islamismo para a Europa e as Américas, é ricamente ilustrada. Por que ler o livro • Para saber mais sobre o Alcorão, Maomé e a influência islâmica • Para conhecer melhor os principais personagens, os acontecimentos e o contexto cultural do islã. • Conteúdo ricamente ilustrado, além de glossário, índice de nomes e mapas Aplicações do tema • Como os cristãos devem se aproximar e conversar com os muçulmanos? • O que é e o que dizer sobre o radicalismo islâmico? • O que sabemos sobre a teologia islâmica e a relação do Ocidente com o islã? *** O QUE DISSERAM "Uma Nova Introdução ao Islã" ajuda o leitor a ter uma compreensão mais sólida sobre os principais personagens e acontecimentos ao descrever os primórdios do islã, seu desenvolvimento e o impacto que essa religião e seus seguidores têm tido – positiva e negativamente – sobre a história nos últimos quatorze séculos. Para Daniel Brown, "o processo de formação do islã, dos seus livros sagrados e de suas conquistas territoriais foram mais longos e complexos do que se costuma afirmar, já que "religiões e civilizações não emergem totalmente formadas do deserto; os nômades não se transformam da noite para o dia em teólogos, juristas, lexicógrafos e teóricos políticos". Enfim, vários dos temas presentes em Uma Nova Introdução ao Islã são pouco abordados por autores cristãos na literatura disponível no Brasil – teologia e filosofia islâmicas, a sharia, o sufismo, a complexa relação do Ocidente com o islã, os desafios que o islã encontra ao se deparar com o pluralismo, o liberalismo, o feminismo e – como não? – com o radicalismo islâmico. – Marcos Amado

Taking the Occasion

release date: Jan 01, 2008
Taking the Occasion
"From its opening lines, Daniel Brown''s Taking the Occasion sounds a new note in poetry. In poem after poem, Mr. Brown plays urban speech rhythms across the back-beat of meter and rhyme. Distinctive in matter as well as in manner, Taking the Occasion addresses topics ranging from baseball to the birth of God. In a time when subjects are viewed by many poets as suspect, Mr. Brown demonstrates the abiding power of an arresting premise. His work repeatedly sounds emotional or philosophical depths yet isn''t above eliciting a laugh in the process. If contemporary poetry has lost the large and enthusiastic audience a vital art requires, the pleasure-giving profundity of Taking the Occasion just may help forge a reconnection."--BOOK JACKET.
