Book excerpt: The person of Jesusand our need to encounter him personallyis the common thread through all that Pope Benedict XVI has written and taught. As he once urged young people, Open, open wide the doors to Christand you will find true life. In this book, popular Catholic writer Amy Welborn highlights the many ways in which the pope is inviting his listeners, both inside and outside the church, to discover the saving, healing, life-giving love of Jesus. As we listen with open minds and hearts to Pope Benedicts persistent and heartfelt invitation, we will be inspired to put friendship with Jesus at the center of our lives. And as the pope shows us, we can encounter Jesus in ourselves, in Scripture, in the liturgy, in prayer, and in everyday life.
Download or read book The Gospel According to Job written by Mike Mason and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2002-10-03 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone who has suffered knows that there is no such thing as "getting a grip on oneself" or "pulling oneself up by the bootstraps. The only bootstrap in the Christian life is the Cross," says Mason. "Sometimes laying hold of the cross can be comforting, but other times it is like picking up a snake." Job knew this firsthand. From him we learn that there are no easy answers to suffering. That the mark of true faith is not happiness, but rather, having one's deepest passions be engaged by the enormity of God. And through Job we learn the secret of the gospel: that "mercy is the permission to be human." The Lord never gave Job an explanation for all he had been through. His only answer was Himself. But as Job discovered, that was enough. The Gospel According to Job sensitively brings the reader to this realization, using a devotional commentary format that reminds them that it's all right to doubt, to be confused, to wonder–in short, to be completely human. But what will heal us and help us endure is a direct, transforming encounter with the living God.

He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art.

Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.
