This book documents with facts, quotes and long-ignored scripture, how a handful of Christian church leaders, shunned by the rest of the church, were able to bring heaven to earth. The author claims many religious leaders have unwittingly denied people the tangible, mystical experiences Jesus promised his followers, experiences common among the early Christians. A few revival leaders eventually led millions back to the Way and changed their world, even as the greater church called them heretics. Their incredible spiritual adventures, and some of the authors own remarkable encounters, are documented in this thought-provoking book.

Distinguishing between religion and spirituality, Burke offers what he calls a new way of looking at God, one centered on the idea of grace. He emphasizes a God who is looking to save the world, not a God who seems more intent on condemning certain practices . . . . For Burke, God is to be questioned, not simply obeyed. His challenging thesis will appeal to many people today who have given up on organized religion but still seek some connection to spirituality.
In this study of the rabbinic heretics who believed in Two Powers in Heaven, Alan Segal explores some relationships between rabbinic Judaism, Merkabah mysticism, and early Christianity. Two Powers in Heaven was a very early category of heresy. It was one of the basic categories by which the rabbis perceived the new phenomenon of Christianity and one of the central issues over which Judaism and Christianity separated. Segal reconstructs the development of the heresy through prudent dating of the stages of the rabbinic traditions. The basic heresy involved interpreting scripture to say that a principal angelic or hypostatic manifestation in heaven was equivalent to God. The earliest heretics believed in two complementary powers in heaven, while later heretics believed in two opposing powers in heaven. Segal stresses the importance of perceiving the relevance of rabbinic material for solving traditional problems of New Testament and gnostic scholarship, and at the same time maintains the necessity of reading those literatures for dating rabbinic material. Please note that Two Powers in Heaven was previously published by Brill in hardback, ISBN 90 04 05453 7 (no longer available).
As a Cosmologist, Theologian, and having been trained as a Christian Minister, Sumner Davis is uniquely qualified to bring into focus the long and often bloody oppression that the Church has exerted on science and free thought. During the journey you will take with the author, beginning around 400 B.C. and ending in our modern day, you will encounter numerous examples of dogmatic suppression of the sciences, especially those concerning space and our planet. What had science revealed that was so threatening to the Church? Why were those who had made great discoveries forced to recant them on pain of death? Perhaps most importantly, why was humanity forced to wait nearly 1,200 years for 16th and 17th century society to "re-discover" these great achievements? From the Aegean Sea communities to the civil rights movement, this book captures all the intricacies of the past 3,000 years! Foreword by Dorion Sagan.
2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention Pope Francis 2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention in English translation edition One element of the church that Pope Francis was elected to lead in 2013 was an ideology that might be called the “American” model of Catholicism—the troubling result of efforts by intellectuals like Michael Novak, George Weigel, and Richard John Neuhaus to remake Catholicism into both a culture war colossus and a prop for ascendant capitalism. After laying the groundwork during the 1980s and armed with a selective and manipulative reading of Pope John Paul II’s 1991 encyclical Centesimus Annus, these neoconservative commentators established themselves as authoritative Catholic voices throughout the 1990s, viewing every question through a liberal-conservative ecclesial-political lens. The movement morphed further after the 9/11 terror attacks into a startling amalgamation of theocratic convictions, which led to the troubling theo-populism we see today. The election of the Latin American pope represented a mortal threat to all of this, and a poisonous backlash was inevitable, bringing us to the brink of a true “American schism.” This is the drama of today’s Catholic Church. In Catholic Discordance: Neoconservatism vs. the Field Hospital Church of Pope Francis, Massimo Borghesi—who masterfully unveiled the pope’s own intellectual development in his The Mind of Pope Francis—analyzes the origins of today’s Catholic neoconservative movement and its clash with the church that Francis understands as a “field hospital” for a fragmented world.
