Download or read book El significado del matrimonio written by Timothy Keller and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro se basa en la reconocida serie de sermones de Timothy Keller, autor de títulos exitosos del New York Times. Revela a toda persona —cristianos, escépticos, solteros, matrimonios veteranos y quienes apenas están por comprometerse— la visión de lo que debe ser el matrimonio según la Biblia. La cultura moderna preferiría que todos creyeran que cada uno tiene su alma gemela, que el romance es la parte más importante de un matrimonio exitoso, que el propósito de su cónyuge es ayudar a que usted alcance su potencial, que el matrimonio no vale para siempre sino que solo vale por hoy, y que volver a empezar después de un divorcio es la mejor solución a los problemas aparentemente insolucionables de un matrimonio. Sin embargo, esas suposiciones de la era actual están erradas. Timothy Keller, con la colaboración de Kathy, su esposa por 37 años, revela que el matrimonio es una relación tan magnífica como incomprendida y misteriosa. ¿Qué significa el matrimonio? ofrece instrucciones sobre cómo tener éxito en el matrimonio y constituye una lectura esencial para quien desea conocer a Dios y amar más profundamente en esta vida. Based on the acclaimed sermon series by New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller, this book shows everyone—Christians, skeptics, singles, longtime married couples, and those about to be engaged—the vision of what marriage should be according to the Bible. Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul mate; that romance is the most important part of a successful marriage; that your spouse is there to help you realize your potential; that marriage does not mean forever, but merely for now; and that starting over after a divorce is the best solution to seemingly intractable marriage issues. But these modern-day assumptions are wrong. Timothy Keller, with insights from Kathy, his wife of thirty-seven years, shows marriage to be a glorious relationship that is also misunderstood and mysterious. The Meaning of Marriage offers instruction on how to have a successful marriage, and is essential reading for anyone who wants to know God and love more deeply in this life.

Download or read book The Prodigal Prophet written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An angry prophet. A feared and loathsome enemy. A devastating storm. And the surprising message of a merciful God to his people. The story of Jonah is one of the most well-known parables in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood. Many people, even those who are nonreligious, are familiar with Jonah: A rebellious prophet who defies God and is swallowed by a whale. But there's much more to Jonah's story than most of us realize. In The Prodigal Prophet, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller reveals the hidden depths within the book of Jonah. Keller makes the case that Jonah was one of the worst prophets in the entire Bible. And yet there are unmistakably clear connections between Jonah, the prodigal son, and Jesus. Jesus in fact saw himself in Jonah. How could one of the most defiant and disobedient prophets in the Bible be compared to Jesus? Jonah's journey also doesn't end when he is freed from the belly of the fish. There is an entire second half to his story--but it is left unresolved within the text of the Bible. Why does the book of Jonah end on what is essentially a cliffhanger? In these pages, Timothy Keller provides an answer to the extraordinary conclusion of this biblical parable--and shares the powerful Christian message at the heart of Jonah's story.

Download or read book Fierce Attachments written by Vivian Gornick and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2005-09-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vivian Gornick’s Fierce Attachments—hailed by the New York Times for the renowned feminist author’s “mesmerizing, thrilling” truths within its pages—has been selected by the publication’s book critics as the #1 Best Memoir of the Past 50 Years. In this deeply etched and haunting memoir, Vivian Gornick tells the story of her lifelong battle with her mother for independence. There have been numerous books about mother and daughter, but none has dealt with this closest of filial relations as directly or as ruthlessly. Gornick’s groundbreaking book confronts what Edna O’Brien has called “the principal crux of female despair”: the unacknowledged Oedipal nature of the mother-daughter bond. Born and raised in the Bronx, the daughter of “urban peasants,” Gornick grows up in a household dominated by her intelligent but uneducated mother’s romantic depression over the early death of her husband. Next door lives Nettie, an attractive widow whose calculating sensuality appeals greatly to Vivian. These women with their opposing models of femininity continue, well into adulthood, to affect Gornick’s struggle to find herself in love and in work. As Gornick walks with her aged mother through the streets of New York, arguing and remembering the past, each wins the reader’s admiration: the caustic and clear-thinking daughter, for her courage and tenacity in really talking to her mother about the most basic issues of their lives, and the still powerful and intuitively-wise old woman, who again and again proves herself her daughter’s mother. Unsparing, deeply courageous, Fierce Attachments is one of the most remarkable documents of family feeling that has been written, a classic that helped start the memoir boom and remains one of the most moving examples of the genre. “[Gornick] stares unflinchingly at all that is hidden, difficult, strange, unresolvable in herself and others—at loneliness, sexual malice and the devouring, claustral closeness of mothers and daughters...[Fierce Attachments is] a portrait of the artist as she finds a language—original, allergic to euphemism and therapeutic banalities—worthy of the women that raised her.”—The New York Times

Download or read book This Momentary Marriage written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-04-03 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting on forty years of matrimony, John Piper exalts the biblical meaning of marriage over its emotion, exhorting couples to keep their covenant for all the best reasons. Even in the days when people commonly stayed married "'til death do us part," there has never been a generation whose view of marriage was high enough, says Pastor John Piper. That is all the more true in our casual times. Though personal selfishness and cultural bondage obstruct the wonder of God's purpose, it is found in God's Word, where his design can awaken a glorious vision capable of freeing every person from small, Christ-ignoring, romance-intoxicated views. As Piper explains in reflecting on forty years of matrimony: "Most foundationally, marriage is the doing of God. And ultimately, marriage is the display of God. It displays the covenant-keeping love between Christ and his people to the world in a way that no other event or institution does. Marriage, therefore, is not mainly about being in love. It's mainly about telling the truth with our lives. And staying married is not about staying in love. It is about keeping covenant and putting the glory of Christ's covenant-keeping love on display." This Momentary Marriage unpacks the biblical vision, its unexpected contours, and its weighty implications for married, single, divorced, and remarried alike.
Download or read book El Nuevo Matrimonio es Adulterio a Menos que written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-08-14 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La poligamia consecutiva (tantos esposos o esposas como uno quiera, pero solo uno por vez) es ahora la norma aceptada en la sociedad contemporánea. No es algo que deba extrañarnos, ya que las restricciones sociales, legales, morales y económicas que mantenían a los matrimonios unidos durante toda la vida han sido erosionadas persistentemente en una era relativista donde todo vale. Lo que sorprende es que el divorcio y el nuevo matrimonio se están volviendo tan frecuentes dentro como fuera de la iglesia, aun entre líderes cristianos y especialmente en la corriente evangélica. Los creyentes han sido elocuentes acerca del aborto y la homosexualidad, aunque su Señor Jesús no dijo nada acerca de ninguno de estos temas. Sí dijo bastante acerca del tema de este libro, pero existe ya sea una renuencia a tomar su enseñanza al pie de la letra o una avidez por agrandar su “excepción” hasta convertirla en la regla. Este libro apela principalmente a aquellas personas para las cuales la Biblia es la autoridad final en todos los asuntos de creencia y conducta, en especial las que predican, enseñan o aconsejan a otras. El autor cree que la iglesia debería estar liderando al mundo cuesta arriba en vez de seguirlo cuesta abajo.
Download or read book The Meaning of Marriage Study Guide written by Timothy Keller and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timothy and Kathy Keller will show you a portrait of marriage as it's meant to be according to the Bible...by first throwing out most of what we've been taught about love. Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul mate; that romance is the most important part of a successful marriage; that marriage does not mean 'til death do us part, but merely for as long as my needs are being met; and that when serious differences arise, divorce is the best solution. But all of these modern-day assumptions miss what marriage is really about. In this six-session video-based Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Timothy Keller, along with Kathy, his wife of forty years, draws a profound portrait of marriage from the pages of Scripture that neither idealizes nor rejects the institution but points us back to the relationship between God and man. The result is a vision for marriage that is refreshingly frank and unsentimental, yet hopeful and beautiful. This study is for anyone from singles to couples considering marriage to those who have been married for any length of time. Sessions include: Service: Marriage Isn't about You Covenant: Created to Make Promises Roles: Loving through Mutual Submission Singleness: Strengthening the Spiritual Family Sex: The Act of Covenant Renewal Hope: Seeing the Great Horizon Designed for use with The Meaning of Marriage Video Study (sold separately).

Pura Belpre Award Winner * "Readers will be swept up." -Publishers Weekly, starred review Esperanza thought she'd always live a privileged life on her family's ranch in Mexico. She'd always have fancy dresses, a beautiful home filled with servants, and Mama, Papa, and Abuelita to care for her. But a sudden tragedy forces Esperanza and Mama to flee to California and settle in a Mexican farm labor camp. Esperanza isn't ready for the hard work, financial struggles brought on by the Great Depression, or lack of acceptance she now faces.

Download or read book Discerniendo Vocaciones al Matrimonio Celibato y Solter a written by Elias Chacour and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro es continuación de otro trabajo de los mismos autores publicado bajo el título: Llamados Por Dios: Una Reflexión Teológica en Torno a la Vocación y Compromiso de por Vida (Madrid, Editorial de Espiritualidad EDE, 1994). Desde una perspectiva relacional y evolutiva sobre el misterio de la vocación, los autores exponen en el siguiente estudio los principios de discernimiento para la vida de matrimonio cristiano, de vida célibe o de vida soltera. En la vocación al matrimonio, ven como elemento fundamental la llamada de Dios a ambos cónyuges a ser instrumento único y especialísimo en el proceso de purificaciónón y transformación espiritual del otro. Identifican la base de la vocación al celibato con una especial relación entre Jesús y la persona célibe que hace a ésta prácticamente “incasable”, “indesposable” (por así decirlo) por Cristo y por su Evangelio. Juzgan que lo propio de la vocación a la vida de soltería es el testimonio de cierta independencia por la causa del Reino. A la luz de lo que es primordial de cada vocación, los autores presentan señales que parecen indicar una llamada auténtica. Este libro puede resultar de interés no solo para quienes estén discerniendo su vocación personal, sino también para los/as guías que estén acompañándoles en este proceso.
