Vergäße ich dein, Jerusalem (9783940188618)

Lydia hatte alles: Geld, gesellschaftliches Ansehen, Karriere, Komfort, Partys, Verehrer, schicke Kleider - und einen Heiratsantrag. Was für seltsame Umstände brachten sie dazu, all das aufzugeben und alleine und mittellos in ein fremdes Land zu ziehen, wo sie fast täglich Gefahren ausgesetzt war? Vergäße ich dein, Jerusalem ist die wahre Geschichte einer Frau des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts, die es wagte, sich auf die Herausforderung der Bibel einzulassen und die dabei entdeckte, was viele suchen, ohne es je zu finden: Friede, Freude, tiefe Geborgenheit, egal, wie die äußeren Umstände auch sein mochten. Lydia Prince lebte während zwanzig Jahren in Jerusalem, wo sie Scharen von verlassenen und verwaisten Kindern aufnahm und bemutterte - und wo sie die Geburt des modernen Israel miterlebte. Derek Prince, der die faszinierende Geschichte seiner ersten Frau niederschrieb, studierte am Eton College, der Universität Cambridge sowie an der Hebräischen Universität in Jerusalem. Neben seiner V...

Mozi : Basic Writings (9780231130011)

Mozi (fifth century B.C.) was an important political and social thinker and formidable rival of the Confucianists. He advocated universal love-his most important doctrine according to which all humankind should be loved and treated as one's kinfolk-honoring and making use of worthy men in government, and identifying with one's superior as a means of establishing uniform moral standards. He also believed in the will of Heaven and in ghosts. He firmly opposed offensive warfare, extravagance-including indulgence in music and allied pleasures-elaborate funerals and mourning, fatalistic beliefs, and Confucianism.

Awaiting the City (PDF) : Poverty, Ecology, and Morality in Today's Political Economy (9780825488566)

People of faith have always been on search for the homeland, first promised to Abraham in light of the Babylonian civilization he left. That future hope was reinterpreted by Jesus and taken up by St. Augustine in The City of God, reinterpreted again by John Calvin in Geneva, and given a final form by the Puritan pilgrims who came to America to establish the City upon a Hill. Fundamental to this quest for a just, holy civilization has been the progress of humankind on the earth in light of the mandate to fill and rule over it. Authors Chad Brand and Tom Pratt discuss that progress as they answer the vital questions for praxis: How should biblically oriented Christians think of and work toward God's justice along the way? How can we steer between a utopian vision and a limited vision to a new rational compassion? Product details Format ...

Green Governance : Ecological Survival, Human Rights, and the Law of the Commons (9781107034365)

The vast majority of the world's scientists agree: we have reached a point in history where we are in grave danger of destroying Earth's life-sustaining capacity. But our attempts to protect natural ecosystems are increasingly ineffective because our very conception of the problem is limited; we treat 'the environment' as its own separate realm, taking for granted prevailing but outmoded conceptions of economics, national sovereignty and international law. Green Governance is a direct response to the mounting calls for a paradigm shift in the way humans relate to the natural environment. It opens the door to a new set of solutions by proposing a compelling new synthesis of environmental protection based on broader notions of economics and human rights and on commons-based governance. Going beyond speculative abstractions, the book proposes a new architecture of environmental law and public policy that is as practical as it is theoretically sound. ...
