L'opera ci parla degli avvenimenti epocali che scossero l'età del Rinascimento in Italia e in Europa: la Riforma protestante di Lutero, Calvino, Zwingli...

Erst durch das Christentum entstand im Frühen Mittelalter aus einer Reihe heterogener Stämme eine Einheit und somit die Grundlage für den Kulturraum Europa. Häufig floss bei Missionsversuchen Blut, denn die Missionare wollten ja die heidnische Kultur zugunsten einer christlichen überwinden. Letztlich aber war der Siegeszug des christlichen Glaubens unaufhaltsam. An seinem Endpunkt stand ein Europa, das durch die lateinische Sprache, durch Liturgie, Kirchenbaukunst und Kultur bei allen Unterschieden zu einem einheitlichen Gesicht fand.

El más antiguo de los Evangelios conocidos que descubre la vida real de Jesús. El Documento o Fuente Q es el primero de los evangelios conocidos. Anterior a los Evangelios canónicos, fue utilizado por los evangelistas Mateo y Lucas para redactar sus obras. En este libro, César Vidal ha reconstruido el texto del Documento Q traduciéndolo por primera vez al castellano y dando con ello la posibilidad de conocer la realidad histórica de Jesús.

¿Estuvo casado Jesús? ¿Es la Iglesia una organización nacida para ocultar la verdad sobre Cristo? ¿Son los evangelios una fabricación encargada por el emperador romano Constantino para obtener mayor poder? ¿Qué es el Priorato de Sión? ¿Y el culto a la diosa? Millones de personas han leído El Código da Vinci y han quedado capturados por el intenso ritmo y por los asombrosos datos que revela la novela. ¿Hasta dónde llega la ficción y dónde comienza la realidad?

¿Cuál es el verdadero origen de Jesús? ¿Sería la publicación de los manuscritos del mar Muerto un golpe dirigido al corazón de las grandes religiones monoteístas? ¿O se trataba de una conspiración encaminada a ocultar la verdad al gran público? El descubrimiento en 1947 de los manuscritos del mar Muerto dio lugar a una serie de interrogantes que hasta ahora no habían encontrado una respuesta certera.

Fritz Mauthner hat in seinem vierbändigem Opus "Magnum der Atheismus und seine Geschichte im Abendlande (1920-1923)" auch einen historisch-philosophischen Überblick zur Kulturgeschichte des Teufels bis in das 19. Jahrhundert nachgezeichnet.

Luther ist allen bekannt und in aller Munde, aber deshalb ist er uns keineswegs mit dem vollen Bilde seines Wesens und Wirkens gegenwärtig. Nicht nur haftet meist der Blick zu ausschließlich an der religiösen Bewegung, die von ihm ausging, auch wird nicht genügend anerkannt, daß die Erneuerung der Religion ihre einzigartige Kraft und Wucht aus dem Ganzen eines eigentümlichen Lebens schöpfte, das in jenem Manne hervorbrach, und das in der Religion wohl seinen Höhepunkt fand...

John Newton, Charles Simeon, and William Wilberforce suffered lifelong opposition and endured for the causes of gospel truth, missionary zeal, and political justice. They found, in solid doctrine and humble joy, the tough roots for habitual tenderness in response to their adversaries - without doctrinal or moral flinching. They are examples of remarkable grace. In the third book of the Swans Are Not Silent series, best-selling author John Piper looks at the lives of these three great men and how they not only endured great opposition but did so with joy and without bitterness.

When Augustine handed over the leadership of his church in AD 426, his successor was so overwhelmed by a sense of inadequacy that he declared, "The swan is silent", fearing the spiritual giant's voice would be lost in time. But for 1,600 years Augustine has not been silent - and neither have the men who faithfully trumpeted the cause of Christ after him. Their lives have inspired every generation of believers and should compel us to a greater passion for God.

We admire these men for their greatness, but the truth is Augustine grappled with sexual passions, Martin Luther struggled to control his tongue, and John Calvin fought the battle of faith with worldly weapons. Yet each of these men will always be remembered for the messages they declared - messages that still resound today. John Piper explores these men's lives, integrating Augustine's delight in God with Luther's emphasis on the Word and Calvin's exposition of scripture. Through their strengths and struggles, we can learn how to live better today.

An intelligent, strong-willed woman, Susanna Wesley suffered much in a male-dominated world while she prepared her children to succeed in it. Her fiery, independent spirit is evident as Arnold Dallimore sets the mother of Methodism within her culture and time in England. Though Samuel Wesley figures prominently in his wife's story, as do John, Charles, and the other children, the story remains fixed on Susanna. Excerpts from Susanna Wesley's letters and writings of her husband and children are included.

This book is a sweeping transatlantic history of Puritanism from its emergence out of the religious tumult of Elizabethan England to its founding role in the story of America. Shedding critical new light on the diverse forms of Puritan belief and practice in England, Scotland, and New England, David Hall provides a multifaceted account of a cultural movement that judged the Protestant reforms of Elizabeth's reign to be unfinished.

One of the most inspirational and influential spiritual leaders of the 20th century, minister and best-selling author Norman Vincent Peale transformed the lives of millions worldwide with his groundbreaking book, The Power of Positive Thinking. In The Positive Power of Jesus Christ, the revered pastor of the world-famous Marble Collegiate Church proclaims his unshakable faith in Christ the Savior with inspiring stories of healing and hope, of the ways in which his life and the lives of others were profoundly touched by the holy hand of God's Son. 

Over 500 years ago, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg and launched the Protestant Reformation. At least, that's what the legend says. In A World Ablaze, Craig Harline introduces us to the flesh-and-blood Martin Luther. Harline tells the riveting story of the first crucial years of the accidental crusade. Luther was a sometimes-cranky friar and professor who worried endlessly about the fate of his eternal soul. He sought answers in the Bible and the Church fathers, and what he found distressed him even more - the way many in the Church had come to understand salvation was profoundly wrong, thought Luther....

Based on decades of research and the aid of scholars from around the world, God Kings brings a scholarly and educated look into the world of Royal bloodlines. The implications of this work are enormous as they involve a lineage traced back to Odin, once believed to be a Norse god, whose lineage then merged with the bloodline of Jesus Christ himself.

Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Many admire his spiritual teachings; some go further and claim him as the messiah, while a few deny he ever existed at all. But everyone has an opinion about this obscure preacher who lived his brief life in one of the less significant regions of the Roman Empire; and who, in being crucified, died the traditional death for criminals and trouble-makers. Jesus lived in turbulent times. Under Roman rule, Judea was a hotbed of nationalist, political and religious interests, all vying for power.
