In this investigation of Christian thinkers, selected philosophers, and other religious leaders, key issues regarding Christianity over the centuries are discussed in detail. Considering the arguments for and against each position, the study's perspective focuses on the key questions of life and existence, showing the different ways Christian thinkers have answered them. Providing an excellent way into understanding these issues and having readers formulate opinions for themselves, the collection of questions include: How can we believe in God when there is so much suffering? Does science mean the end of religion? Does life after death really exist? Have we any good reason to believe in God? What is the ultimate goal of life? and What does it mean to lead a good life?

This is what faeries are really about…Take another visit to fairyland, via this sister volume to Maxine Gadd’s Faeries and Other Fantastical Folk—a volume that has already reprinted three times. Artist Ed Hicks demonstrates his facility with the genre in a charming, beautifully produced look at these eternally popular and magical beings. His pastel paintings evoke a luminous and lovely world, all complemented by Dee Stotts’ gentle, mysterious verse.

Waiting for Rain joins the field of biblical interpretation known as parshanut ha-mikrah. It offers fresh insights into traditional rabbinic interpretation, together with the author's perspective as a modern Orthodox woman bible scholar. Levy explores the psyches of the biblical characters and addresses issues such as our connectedness to others, the tragedy of wasted opportunity, confronting evil, the denial of death, faith and doubt,...
