Meu objetivo com este livro sobre "O tempo significativo de Deus para nós", e como subtítulo "Buscar o tempo oportuno de Deus através dos exercícios Inacianos", mostrando que na Sagrada Escritura, revelaço do Deus transcendente, se abre e se fecha com noçes temporais: "No principio Deus criou o ceu e a terra" (Gn 1,1). "Sim, Eu venho em breve" (Ap 22,20 ). A manifestaço de Deus na Biblia no e tomada abstratamente, mas nas suas intervençes na terra que fazem da historia do mundo uma historia sagrada. E por isso que a revelaço biblica pode responder as questes religiosas que a consciencia humana, marcada pelo devir, se pe a respeito do tempo, ja que ela mesma e de estrutura historica . A pergunta dos apostolos tinha todo um significado cosmico, historico e teologico, pois, a concepço biblica e denominada pela ideia de que o tempo e ordenado por uma sucesso de acontecimentos esperados no devido tempo, identificados com o acontecimento associado a ele. Portanto, e necessario fazer uma hermeneutica biblica para compreender a relaço entre o acontecimento Jesus Cristo e o tempo humano. Partindo desta premissa, vejamos o que o sentido de tempo, dentro desta leitura, pode nos oferecer, pois o tempo, obra de Deus, serve de quadro para uma historia que nos diz respeito, abrindo uma gama de interpretaçes que apresentam o misterio da aço de Deus no mundo. Assim, a Sagrada Escritura demonstra todo este "metodo de Deus" de se fazer presente no mundo: cosmico, historico e espiritual. Pois Deus se revelou na historia do homem para se fazer presença na historia do homem. No seu devido tempo . E os Atos dos Apostolos ja apresentam indicios desse tempo pleno de revelaço de Deus. A novidade do Evangelho se fundamenta na mensagem de Jesus: "cumpriu-se o tempo e chegou o reino de Deus; convertei-vos e crede no evangelho". Esta e a afirmaço-chave, que consta de duas frases paralelas duplas, cada uma com duas partes, unidas por um "e". Como e usual em Marcos, a segunda serve para precisar o sentido da primeira: cumpriu-se o tempo "e" chega o reino (o reino define e da sentido ao tempo); convertei-vos "e" crede no evangelho (a fe da sentido a converso). Procuramos utilizar como metodologia a espiritualidade Inaciana, contemplativa na aço, segundo o livro dos Exercicios Espirituais de Santo Inacio de Loyola PARA REALIZAR A EXPERIENCIA DE ENCONTRO PESSOAL COM JESUS, NO EXERCICIO ESPIRITUAL DO DIA-A-DIA O autor saluar antonio magni e leigo da Igreja Catolica, formado em administraço, economia e possui curso superior de religio pela Arquidiocese de Aparecida.

Alem de do ministerio da Palavra e coordenador Arquidiocesano da Liturgia da Arquidiocese de Aparecida e orientador e acompanhante dos exercicios espirituais de santo Inacio de Loyola.

For the New Testament writers, the Old Testament scriptures and the teachings of Jesus were key sources of authority and influence. When these influences are considered alongside each other, each can illuminate the other, deepening the New Testament writers presentation of Jesus and our understanding of their interpretations. In Jesus and Scripture, Tom Parker examines the way in which Hebrews, James, and 1 and 2 Peter deal with these two different sources of authority, how they relate to each other, and what shifts have occurred historically and theologically within the writing of these texts. Treating the four epistles methodologically, Parker examines the particular ways in which each writer draws on the Hebrew scriptures. Ultimately, he argues convincingly that the nascent Jesus tradition, particularly via oral routes, influenced the way the Old Testament was processed by these various New Testament writers.

In recent years there has been a revival of interest in the Book of Common Prayer, especially the classic 1662 version. Beloved for its language and theology, the classic Prayer Book is the fountainhead for almost all later editions of the Book of Common Prayer and remains a widely recognized standard for worship in the Anglican tradition. More than simply a collection of prayers, the Book of Common Prayer offers a transformative engagement with the Bible and a framework for our spiritual lives.In How to Use the Book of Common Prayer, Samuel Bray and Drew Keane (editors of The 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition) introduce the classic Prayer Book to newcomers. Beginning with a brief history and case for liturgical prayer, they walk through daily morning and evening prayer, baptism and Communion, the church year, and the Prayer Books plan for reading the Bible. This is not only an introduction to the Prayer Bookits a guide to letting it form your faith.

Being responsive to God is at the heart of prophecy. But readers of ancient prophecies and apocalyptic literatureincluding those in the Old Testamentcan come away thoroughly perplexed. Are the prophets speaking about their own times, about our present, or about some still-unrealized future?Its common to study prophecy with a focus on the sole question of prediction and fulfillment, either for the sake of apologetics or for understanding the end times, but such an approach can fail to track with the original intent of the authors. We need to shake loose both from a paradigm of reading prophecy as an offer of mysterious divination as well as from the habit of constructing eschatological timelines of any sort. How do these books work as meaningful Scripture for Christians today?John Walton applies his signature method to help us recover the lost world of the prophets. To read these biblical books well, we must understand: the role of the prophet the nature of prophetic literature the theological significance of prophecy how apocalyptic differs from prophecy A fresh reading of the Old Testament text in light of the ancient Near Eastern context can open new avenues of awareness. Walton provides a clear, helpful guide to the nature of biblical prophecy and apocalyptic literature that will help readers avoid potential misuse and reclaim the message of the prophets for their lives.The books in the Lost World Series follow the pattern set by Bible scholar John H. Walton, bringing a fresh, close reading of the Hebrew text and knowledge of ancient Near Eastern literature to an accessible discussion of the biblical topic at hand using a series of logic-based propositions.

Many who lead or who aspire to lead rightly champion the importance of hard skills. These are skills that are informed by quantitative measurement and analytical thinking, among others. Knowing the numbers, embracing leadership tasks, and implementing the right strategies are important but no longer enough to be an effective leader. Indeed, the best of the leadership literature consistently emphasizes the importance of soft skills as this quote illustrates: "The capabilities required of top leaders include new and often softer skills that are rarely explicitly recognized or fostered in the corporate world." (Harvard Business Review, July-August, 2022, p.42)In The Softer Side of Leadership, Dr. Habecker, who spent 35 consecutive years as a CEO of two universities and one large NYC non-profit, makes the case for the integration of soft skills into every aspect of the leaders personal life and the organizational agenda. He draws from his own experience, that of other international colleagues, the leadership literature, and from the Scriptures.The first part of the book focuses on the soft skills that help to continuously fuel the healthy development of the leaders spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional foundations. The second part focuses on the skills that drive organizational effectiveness and contribute to healthier cultures. Each chapter includes "The Chapter Idea" summary and a practical application: "Putting the Idea to Work."The essential idea of the book is this: As readers develop their soft skill competencies, including the skills, behaviors, practices, and disciplines presented in The Softer Side of Leadership, and combine them with their hard skill competencies, they will be better equipped to be more effective as leaders which will likely result in both healthier personal lives and healthier organizations.

Thinking about the end times isnt supposed to terrify you Christians rightly turn to the Bible to make sense of our times. But so often we get the wrong answers because we ask the wrong questions. In The End of the World as You Know It, Matthew L. Halsted challenges common end-times assumptions and points us back to Scripture. Each chapter reevaluates a popular question in light of the Bibles own concerns: Will Christians be raptured? What is the mark of the beast? When we let Scripture direct our questions, we get betterand more hopefulanswers. The Bible was written for us, but not to us. We must bridge the gap between Scriptures ancient context and our own. Reading end-times texts in their ancient context helps us understand our present and future. And when we do, we find that Gods word brings peace, not fear and confusion.
