Intolerance is a beautiful thing...when you understand it from God's point of view. There is a spiritual struggle for the hearts and minds of our young people. Cultural tolerance is pervasive in today's world. It seems to show up everywhere - in education, government, society...even within the church.

Drawing inspiration from philosophy, history, and literature, Martha C. Nussbaum takes us to task for our religious intolerance, identifies the fear behind it, and offers a way past fear toward a more equitable, imaginative, and free society, through the consistent application of universal principles of respect for conscience.

I'm a 24 year old teenage girl with a dream and dairy intolerance. Lots of yapping to ensue.

This subliminal hypnosis program works for you on three different levels - positive affirmations will be spoken during your deepest state of open relaxation, low binaural beats that are almost imperceptible to the human ear work with your subconscious mind to anchor the positive affirmations to help you overcome lactose intolerance, and ancient Solfeggio tones encourage healing and wholeness with powerful harmonic frequencies. Along with seven different soothing sounds of nature, these three elements combined together are the triad of positive change that will propel you toward a better future.

This book explores how polarized interpretations of America's past influence the present and vice versa. A focus on competing Protestant reactions to President Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan evidences a fundamental divide over how America should remember historical racism, sexism, and exploitation. Additionally, these Protestants disagree over how the past influences present injustice and equality. Rowley proposes that recovering a complex view of the past, confessing the bad and embracing the good, might help Americans have a shared memory that can bridge polarization.

It was the final test. A chance to win not only the love of Allah, but the love of her father - something she had never been able to earn. Esther took a deep breath and raised her hand in the air. At the age of 18, she had just volunteered to become a suicide bomber. Defying Jihad is the true story of a girl growing up under radical Islamic rule, trained to believe her ultimate purpose was to serve Allah by dying as a jihadist. But two nights before she was to leave forever, she had a dream...one that would change the course of her destiny.

Shusaku Endo's novel Silence took visual artist Makoto Fujimura on a pilgrimage of grappling with the nature of art, the significance of pain, and his own cultural heritage. His artistic faith journey overlaps with Endo's as he uncovers deep layers of meaning in Japanese history and literature, expressed in art both past and present. He finds connections to how faith is lived amid trauma and glimpses of how the Gospel is conveyed in Christ-hidden cultures.

While most of us have heard about Christians suffering for their faith, we tend to think "persecution" mainly impacts believers in times past or in hostile nations today, far removed from our daily lives. But this eye-opening book describes the various stages of persecution, revealing that persecution is something all followers of the Way can expect to face in this fallen world. Trouble on the Way will not only help listeners recognize persecution in all its forms but enable them to stand firm against it.

Inside Syria and Iraq, and even along the refugee trail, they’re a religious minority persecuted for their Christian faith. Outside the Middle East, they’re suspect because of their nationality. A small remnant of Christians is on the run from the Islamic State. If they are wiped out, or scattered to the corners of the earth, the language that Jesus spoke may be lost forever - along with the witness of a church that has modeled Jesus’ way of nonviolence and enemy-love for two millennia.

Joachim Gauck über das zentrale Thema unserer Zeit. Was muss die Gesellschaft, was muss und was sollte der Einzelne tolerieren und wo liegen die Grenzen der Toleranz? Die Lebensentwürfe, Wertvorstellungen, religiösen und kulturellen Hintergründe der Menschen werden immer vielfältiger - für manche eine Bereicherung, für nicht wenige eine Last. Wie viel Andersartigkeit muss man erdulden? Wie viel kann man erdulden? Wie viel Kritik aushalten? Welche gemeinsamen Regeln müssen bei aller Verschiedenheit gelten?

Una biografía singular y de conversión que no debe ignorar. Vizconde de Foucauld, después de haber sido militar y explorador, se hizo sacerdote regular después de una experiencia de conversión que le hizo regresar a la Iglesia católica. Dueño de un cambio importante en su vida, hasta el final de sus días se dedicó al cuidado de los más olvidados y abandonados.

Wissen war in früheren Zeiten ein Privileg von wenigen, vor allem einfache Leute hatten keinen Zugang dazu. Die Situation änderte sich grundlegend mit der Erfindung des Buchdrucks durch Gutenberg im 15. Jahrhundert. Bücher lassen sich in großen Stückzahlen vervielfältigen und unter die Leute bringen. Vor allem Luther, so Wolf, macht sich die Möglichkeiten der Verbreitung zunutze: Jeder Dritte hat eine gedruckte Lutherschrift gelesen. Die katholische Kirche kann die Flut von Schriften nicht eindämmen, aber sie möchte verhindern, dass unliebsame Bücher gelesen werden.
