Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - An indispensable resource for those working to build interfaith bridges between Jewish, Christian, and Muslim communities. Although modern Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are distinct religions with their own tenets and beliefs, these three ancient faiths share deep roots. Those unversed in the holy scriptures of Islam might be surprised to learn that many of the well-known religious figures told of in the Torah and the Bible are also found in the pages of the Quran. This introductory book gives readers a unique opportunity to begin exploring the histories of these three great faiths by reflecting upon the lives of Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Mary as told through the Quranic verses. Some of these stories include: - Abraham and his conversation with the townspeople after the idols in the temple had been broken.- Moses's conversation with God on Mount Sinai.- Jesus's miracles as told in the Quran.- The conversation between the Virgin Mary and Angel Gabriel.While some of these verses are similar to those found in the Judaic and Christian scriptures, others are new revelations not shared before in any of the previous holy texts. With this beautiful collection of Quranic stories, interwoven with brief, simple to follow discussion and commentary, author Thasneem Ahmed offers readers a new way to enjoy the stories of these beloved individuals.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu.

Esta Biblia satánica actualizada marca una reforma en la religión del satanismo, accesible por igual al lector medio y al filósofo. Los satanistas que hayan tenido problemas para encontrar sentido en el darwinismo social de LaVey, inspirado por Ayn Rand, podrán abrazar el nuevo enfoque en el activismo y la justicia social.Mientras el escepticismo y la ética secular reflejan aspectos del humanismo, la filosofía satánica va mucho más allá incorpora la rebelión, la perseverancia implacable, el ser marginado, individualista y el adversario. Las características de cada aspecto del arquetipo de Satán están meticulosamente explicadas y enlazadas a la filosofía presentada. Esto no sólo justifica la validez del nombre 'satanismo', sino que también responde a la pregunta de por qué sólo se puede llamar 'satanismo'.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Winner of the 2016 IAN Award for Outstanding Memoir and Runner-Up for Book of the Year.How many times can you lose yourself in love before you finally learn how to choose yourself In Realizing River City, Melissa Grunow looks unflinchingly at the relationships that shaped her-and at the woman she became while searching for love, acceptance, and a place to belong. Through marriage, divorce, emotionally abusive relationships, grief, desire, and the painful repetition of old patterns, she confronts what happens when the need to be loved begins to eclipse the need to love yourself.Written with vulnerability, candour, and a poet's eye for emotional detail, this memoir follows Grunow through the messy terrain between heartbreak and healing. Each loss forces another reckoning: with the stories she has told herself, the boundaries she has surrendered, and the difficult truth that escape alone does not end a destructive pattern.Yet Realizing River City is not simply a catalogue of broken relationships. It is a story of self-discovery, compassion, resilience, and the gradual reclamation of a life. Grunow transforms anger and grief into understanding as she learns that redemption does not come from finding the right person to complete her.Sometimes the relationship capable of changing everything is the one you build with yourself.…
