Agora você vai ter a oportunidade de conhecer o que há de essencial na Bíblia, pois A História é um audiolivro que vai prender sua atenção do princípio ao fim. É de fato uma bela história. A Bíblia é uma narrativa repleta de amor, ódio, disputas, conquistas e milagres. Ela nos traz poesia, cultura, episódios históricos e teologia.

Luke is the story of the life of Jesus of Nazareth. It tells of his origin, life, teachings, ministry, and miracles. It tells of his death, burial, resurrection, and ascension to heaven. Consequently, Luke may be the most informative book in the Bible. Before writing his book, Luke examined written materials and talked to eyewitnesses. Eyewitness Bible Series: Luke is meant to imitate some of the stories Luke might have heard, as well as explore their meaning and importance. This series is true to the Bible, but fills in storylines based on history, geography, and imagination.

Many Christians view the Bible as a book that they know they should read, but it can be hard to know where to start. If they spend time regularly reading it, it can often feel like a chore to be checked off for the day. What many miss is that the Bible is a sweeping story full of narrative, poetry, and letters—something to be marveled at and enjoyed. In The Epic Story of the Bible, Greg Gilbert aims to teach Christians—or those interested in Christianity—what the Bible is and how to study it.

A purpose of the Eyewitness Bible Series: Acts is to tell some of the information of the book of Acts from different vantage points.

Eyewitness Bible Series: Acts illustrates the stories that he might have heard from a dozen of the characters featured in the book of Acts.

Too often, all oppressed people in America are lumped together under the moniker people of color, as if each group's experience under the yoke of systemic racism has the same repercussions. But the American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) hold a unique claim: ADOS, after all, is the only group whose ancestors were forcibly brought to America, enslaved, built much of the wealth of the country, yet continue to be excluded from the same social, political, and economic rights of other Americans. To that end, Rev. Dr. Kevin W. Cosby lays out the first theology of the ADOS movement.

Così nell'Antico come nel Nuovo Testamento non ci sono interni: tutto si svolge fuori, all'aria aperta. Battaglie, amori, preghiere, sacrifici. Predicazioni, miracoli, morte e resurrezione.

De Luca e Matino offrono la percezione ravvicinata di questo "spostamento" e di come i due mestieri rimandino alla valorizzazione delle risorse da cui dipende tuttora la qualità dell'esistenza umana: la terra e l'acqua.
