Showing results for "Hansen" in Religious Studies

For centuries, readers have marveled at the imaginative brilliance of authors like C. S. Lewis, Dorothy L. Sayers, and Charles Williams. But what inspired these literary giants? The Way of Dante takes you on a journey of discovering how the medieval poet Dante Alighieri and his masterwork, The Divine Comedy, shaped their thoughts, artistry, and faith.

Many listeners have heard C. S. Lewis's logical arguments for the Christian faith. Yet throughout his wide-ranging study and writing, Lewis often began with experience, intuition, and religious feeling rather than dogmatic assertions. The most profound questions of Lewis's own life, argues theologian and literary critic Jeffrey Barbeau, can be seen in his quest to understand the relationship between personal experience and the truth about the world around him.

"I Tænk som en munk" guider den britiske forfatter og tidligere munk Jay Shetty læseren til at finde indre ro midt i hverdagens travlhed og larm - både den ydre og den indre larm. I tre år levede Shetty som munk i Indien, men på opfordring af sin åndelige lærer lagde han munkeroben, tog hjem og begyndte at dele den visdom, han havde lært, med andre. Det er nemlig ikke nødvendigt at være munk for at drage nytte af de metoder, munke i årtusinder har udviklet til at opnå indre fred og balance.

With fresh research and shrewd analysis, this volume by noted historian Mark A. Noll considers the surprising reception of Lewis among Roman Catholic, mainline Protestant, and evangelical readers to see how early readings of the Oxford don shaped his later influence.
