| From the enlightened era of the nineteenth century comes a voice relevant to our day and time. Because truth is eternal, we glean insightful knowledge from this Danish philospher. The 1507 quotations in this book are selected to introduce the reader to the full range of Kierkegaard's thoughts as a Christian. This book is topically arranged. Its subjects range from God to Man, Eternal to Temporal, Sin to Self-Denial, Passive Belief to Passionate Commitment, etc. Kierkegaard said of himself: "My whole authorship pertains to Christianity... ." "What do I care about the world's honor and glory, and what do I care about its ridicule and scorn, indeed, what do I care about its ridicule and scorn, indeed, what do I care about myself if only God may be honored." Kierkegaard's ideas are timeless: There is only one relation to revealed truth: believe it. We have Christ's word that there is an eternal life, and with that the matter is decided. They are important: Do not doubt whether you are immortal? Tremble, because you are immortal. They are contemporary: The majority of people are willing to be grateful when they receive a good gift, but then they demand that it be left to them to decide which gift is good. They are the Gospel: No friend has ever been able to be more than faithful unto death, be he remained faithful in death--his death was indeed my salvaton. |

| The Rutland Dam is "a titanic waiting to happen." A melting snow pack, torrential rains, and a rising reservoir threaten to put the small town under millions of gallons of water. A tragic accident at the dam alerts disgraced architect David Powell (Joe Lando) to the impending danger, but the corrupt construction company president (Bruce Boxleitner) does his best to discredit him. David must convince his estranged wife, Rutland's acting mayor (Michele Greene), and his son, an architectural apprentice at the dam, that the town must be evacuated. Time is running out, the water is rising, and Rutland could be submerged in a flash! |

| What would it have been like to sit in Spurgeon's classes? I hope this book gives a sense of what a student would hear Spurgeon say about preaching if Spurgeon were to speak with them in the hall, from the pulpit, or on a walk down the streets of London. Thus, the purpose of this book is to enable preachers to "apprentice" with Spurgeon for a season in order to learn from him about preaching. It is hoped that such an internship will prove valuable for contributing to preachers as they mine resources for gospel relevance and power in the twenty-first century. But how could Spurgeon help? The twenty-first century preacher in the West will recognize some profound similarities with Spurgeon and his times. It is true that postmodernism and Enlightenment Rationalism are very different philosophies. But their results are similar in that they promote wide spread scepticism and doubt regarding the authority of the Bible. The debates about the use of art and sermon length at the turn of the twenty-first century are no different in substance than those found in England at the turn of the twentieth. The effect of attention span and the need for story to accompany logic are not new topics of discussion for preachers. In addition, pressures that reduce time for sermon preparation and engender the temptation for shallow or borrowed sermons are nothing essentially new. |

| In this inspirational book, Dr. Harold G. Koenig demonstrates how kindness leads to life-enriching joy. The nature of kindness is explored--its relationship to love and generosity, as well as the characteristics that distinguish it from pity. Kindness is defined as an intentional and selfless kind of gentle love that involves concentrating on the needs of another person. It is the opposite of cruelty and neglect, which ignore the needs of others and focus only on the self. Joy is likewise examined, and Koenig notes how it differs from the emotions of happiness and satisfaction. Its roots are shown to be in human experiences and actions. Stories from everyday life as well as the acts of well-known people illustrate how kindness is expressed. They also show the effects of kindness on the person who is being kind and the recipient of the kindness. While, to date, there is little formal research on kindness, there are studies on the positive impact of values that are related to it, such as forgiveness, altruistic love, and acts of volunteering and compassion. It is likely, Koenig speculates, that kindness will be found to have a positive effect on mental health and even physical health. This book includes guidance as well as information and inspiration. There are practical recommendations on how to perform acts of kindness in personal lives and at work, toward friends, colleagues, and family members-- even with one's enemies. Suggestions are also offered on ways to encourage others to be kind so they, too, can experience the joy that results. Kindness and Joy shows that kindness is a virtue that carries a double blessing: it transforms both the life of the receiver and of the giver. |
