Download or read book Answering Atheism written by Trent Horn and published by Catholic Answers. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's New Atheists don't just deny God's existence (as the old atheists did) - they consider it their duty to scorn and ridicule religious belief. We don't need new answers for this aggressive modern strain of unbelief: We need a new approach. In Answering Atheism, Trent Horn responds with a fresh and useful resource for the God debate, based on reason, common sense, and more importantly, a charitable approach that respects atheists' sincerity and good will, making this book suitable not just for believers but for skeptics and seekers too. Meticulously researched, and street-tested in Horn's work as a pro-God apologist, it tackles all the major issues of the debate, including: -Reconciling human evil and suffering with the existence of a loving, all-powerful God -Whether the empirical sciences have eliminated the need for God, or in fact point to him -How atheists usually deny moral laws (and thus a moral lawgiver) in theory

Her approach to healing, love, and spirituality is unconventional, deep, and refreshingly real. Winner of the Readers' Favorite silver medal for best self-help book of 2013, The Love Mindset offers a surprisingly simple look at how we can heal our relationships with ourselves and with each other. If you feel like you're too broken to fix, hold out your last shred of hope and give Vironika a try. She won't disappoint you.

Download or read book So You Think You re a Good Person written by Cal Seban and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's intent is to call into question the validity of a belief about human nature that enjoys almost universal acceptance. He contends that there is a huge difference between the “good” people we think we are, and what we're really like. He hopes this book will challenge us to evaluate ourselves and our core values.This book is about us—our humanity and our inhumanity, our selflessness and our self-centeredness, our compassion and our indifference. It is about the age old question of what we're really like in the depths of our being. Most assume that, “basically, we're good people.” Isn't that just the way it is? Isn't that what everybody thinks? If someone feels like their self-image, integrity or reputation is being threatened, we often hear them say, “I'm a good person!” It would be pretty hard to live with yourself if you weren't able to maintain some semblance of self-worth.We've taken it for granted that, “basically, we're good people.” Something we've just assumed to be a given has been elevated to the status of truth. The reader will be asked to do some soul searching as to the validity of this widely held belief. Two key factors in making any assessment of whether or not we're “good people” are the standard by which we measure ourselves with respect to charitable giving and volunteerism.The reader is challenged to reevaluate their standard of what a good person is. Furthermore, this book asks the reader to take action based on their understanding of what it means to be a good person. Do you want to go with the flow, or start struggling against the strong cultural currents of ethics, morals and values that seek to pull us along with everyone else? His reason for writing is that he hurts for and is concerned about those who are less fortunate, those dying from starvation or disease and those living in conditions that make it difficult to maintain any semblance of dignity and hope. He challenges the reader to use their potential to help the suffering, the abandoned and the destitute.The book addresses many current high-visibility issues that are relevant and part of today's conversation: income inequality and the wealth gap, the fading of the American Dream and the decline of the middle-class, government regulation and the Volcker rule, bank penalties for actions taken during the mortgage crisis and the anniversary of Lyndon Johnson's declaration of a War on Poverty, Congressional gridlock and, most of all, Pope Francis' emphasis on the need to care for the poor and the marginalized. The dynamics involved in these issues demonstrate the author's belief about the nature of man, reflected in lives that are characterized by self-interest, greed and indifference. We have this tendency to look out not just for the needs of ourselves and our own, but also our wants, at the expense of the unmet needs of others - many of whom are living in misery and despair. This book gives his perspective on how all of these issues fit into the big picture of the meaning of life.

Download or read book The Book of Job written by Harold S. Kushner and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the Jewish Encounter series From one of our most trusted spiritual advisers, a thoughtful, illuminating guide to that most fascinating of biblical texts, the book of Job, and what it can teach us about living in a troubled world. The story of Job is one of unjust things happening to a good man. Yet after losing everything, Job—though confused, angry, and questioning God—refuses to reject his faith, although he challenges some central aspects of it. Rabbi Harold S. Kushner examines the questions raised by Job’s experience, questions that have challenged wisdom seekers and worshippers for centuries. What kind of God permits such bad things to happen to good people? Why does God test loyal followers? Can a truly good God be all-powerful? Rooted in the text, the critical tradition that surrounds it, and the author’s own profoundly moral thinking, Kushner’s study gives us the book of Job as a touchstone for our time. Taking lessons from historical and personal tragedy, Kushner teaches us about what can and cannot be controlled, about the power of faith when all seems dark, and about our ability to find God. Rigorous and insightful yet deeply affecting, The Book of Job is balm for a distressed age—and Rabbi Kushner’s most important book since When Bad Things Happen to Good People.
