The Origins of the Christian Mystical Tradition: From Plato to Denys

Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA: February 2007

Seller ID: 126422

ISBN: 0199291403

Binding: New Trade

Condition: New

'The charge that the mystical strain in Christianity is alien to Christianity is a charge frequently made,' writes Andrew Louth. Some scholars contend that the Platonic spirituality found in the Church Fathers fundamentally opposes the contemplative and the active. Louth is interested not only in the extent to which Platonism determines the mystical theology of the Fathers but the extent to which this influence is resisted and rejected. Drawn from a series of lectures he delivered at Oxford and to a convent of Catholic sisters in the late 70s, The Origins of the Christian Mystical Tradition...

Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you; heal the sick in it and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has come near to you.'" Luke 10:8-9 When Jesus sent seventy disciples on ahead of him, part of their mission was to heal the sick. In fact, they were supposed to heal the sick before they preached the Gospel. Best-selling author Mike Aquilina calls this command the healing imperative. And it's an imperative that ushered in the world of modern medicine. In The Healing Imperative: The Early Church and the Invention of Medicine as we Know It, Aquilina re...

Price: $22.00

Publisher: Cascade Books: July 2009

Seller ID: 173036

ISBN: 1606086464

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

The title 'The Odes of Solomon' appears in early lists of Christian scripture, but until the 1908 discovery of a near-complete manuscript, the Odes was known only through fragments and references in other texts. Beautifully composed by Jewish Christians of the first century, the Odes is replete with devotional references to Christ and allusions to Gospel events such as baptism and the Harrowing of Hell. Along with texts such as the Didache and the Shepherd of Hermas, this collection joins a group of legitimately Christian writings that witness to the early life of the Church, whe...

Publisher: Yale University Press: June 2012

Seller ID: 153277

ISBN: 030017862X

No period of history was more formative for the development of Christianity than the patristic age, when church leaders, monks, and laity established the standard features of Christianity as we know it today. Combining historical and theological analysis, Christopher Beeley presents a detailed and far-reaching account of how key theologians and church councils understood the most central element of their faith, the identity and significance of Jesus Christ.
Focusing particularly on the question of how Christ can be both human and divine and reassessing both officially orthodox and her...

Living Wisely With the Church Fathers

Price: $25.00

Publisher: Intervarsity Pr: October 2017

Seller ID: 158857

ISBN: 0830851887

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

The first centuries of Christianity are like a far country. But despite their foreignness, they hold a treasury of wisdom for living. Early Christians struggled and flourished in a culture that was in love with empire and military power, infatuated with sex and entertainment, tolerant of all gods but hostile to the One. And from this crucible of discipleship they extracted lessons of virtue, faithfulness, and joy in Christ. Christopher Hall takes us to the ancient Mediterranean world, inquiring Christian leaders how to live a good life as a Christ follower. The menu of topics wends its way thr...

Learning Theology With the Church Fathers

By: CHRISTOPHER A. HALL

Price: $25.00

Publisher: Intervarsity Pr: October 2002

Seller ID: 173146

ISBN: 0830826866

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Christopher Hall understands the danger. Writing a book about theology is a risky endeavor, especially divorced from our experience of it in worship. The Church Fathers saw no distinction between theology and spirituality -- their lives were crucibles in which some of the most formative questions of the Christian faith were refined and sharpened, separating heresy from truth. That said, their theological writings are of such a depth and quality they warrant an insightful introduction. Here it is. In this second volume of a projected three volume series (Reading Scripture with the Church Father...

ISBN: 083083866X

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Christopher Hall invites us to accompany the fathers as they enter the sanctuary for worship and the chapel for prayer. He also takes us to the wilderness, where we learn from the early monastics as they draw close to God in their solitary discipline. The focus of this book is not liturgy but more broadly worship in its corporate and individual dimensions. We enter into the patristic understanding of baptism and the Eucharist. And we come under the instruction and discipline of great spiritual teachers of prayer. In two previous books, Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers and View More...
