Nothing Is Impossible with God
Shannon Bream, the number-one New York Times bestselling author of The Women of the Bible Speak series, returns with a fresh collection of biblical stories that will hearten readers who feel stuck in a spiritual rut. People in the Bible struggled the exact way we do. If your life doesn't look the way you expected, that doesn't mean God can't use you. The Christian life often doesn't feel like the stained-glass images we remember from childhood--happy, holy, hopeful. But God never promised that we won't have trouble. Rather, He promises to be with us through the storm. Be encouraged by the real struggles of biblical heroes, including: Moses, the slave-turned-prince who faced constant curveballs in life.Daniel, the exile who maintained his integrity in the most hostile environment imaginable.Joseph, the "chosen one" with family trauma like you wouldn't believe.Jonah, who ran away from his mission and ended up at the bottom of the sea.Elijah, the bold prophet who went from miracles to extreme loneliness.Peter, the impulsive and changeable fisherman who became a "rock" of the faith.Their journeys were full of trials, but they found abounding peace in Jesus. Nothing Is Impossible with God is an encouraging reminder of how the Lord is willing and able to bless us more than we can possibly imagine. It will comfort, inspire, and equip you for life's challenges by showing that nothing is impossible with Him.

My Name Is Your Name
Divine epithets serve a variety of purposes, with the most frequent being those related to the locations and functions of the gods. Epithets derived from individual names, however, have received less attention. While few studies have focused on the Greek world, research on the Latin-speaking Mediterranean is still sporadic. Such "anthropophoric" onomastic attributes have often been interpreted as related to the name of a cult founder. Yet, such a practice rather suggests various forms of relationships between the god and the individual (or group) whose name shapes the epithet. These dynamics of "individualisation" of a deity require further exploration. This collective book provides, for the first time, a detailed catalog of 398 Greek and Latin occurrences from the broad circum-Mediterranean area (including Greece, Anatolia, the Levant, North Africa, the Iberian peninsula, Central Europe, Italy, and Rome), related to 45 divinities and 191 different epithets. Multiple case studies ranging from the 5th or 4th century BCE to the 4th century CE, examined through different chronological, geographical, and thematic perspectives, offer valuable insights into local and regional strategies of religious appropriation.
Gregory of Nyssa: On the Hexaemeron
This book presents Gregory of Nyssa's On the Six Days of Creation (In Hexaemeron) as a specimen of Early Christian philosophy. It comprises Gregory of Nyssa's text in its Greek original accompanied by a new English translation, and seven accompanying essays by international specialists from diverse backgrounds. Each essay focuses on a section of the text and the arising philosophical issues. The essays complement each other in offering multiple perspectives on how Gregory's text may be approached philosophically and positioned in relation to other, more or less contiguous, philosophical theories, including the early Greeks Anaxagoras and Empedocles, Aristotle, and the Stoics. Rather than presenting a definite and exhaustive state of the art study of Gregory's text, this volume aims to open new pathways for research into In Hexaemeron.

Your 40-Day Spiritual Alignment
There is a moment in everyone's journey when the call to return inward becomes unmistakable. The world grows loud, the logical mind busy, and the heart whispers-softly at first, then more insistently, and peace and clarity reside not outside, but within.Your 40-Day Spiritual Alignment: A Journey Through Spiritual Mind Treatments was born from that inner whisper as a tool for those ready to move beyond external solutions and into the sanctuary of Higher Truth. Spiritual Mind Treatment, as developed through metaphysical practice, is not about asking a distant power for favors or to save us; it is the art of aligning our conscious thought with Divine Intelligence. It is claiming, affirming, and embodying the Truth that already lives within us.Each day in this 40-day journey offers a focused Spiritual Mind Treatment-a sacred dialogue with the Universe, centered on a theme relevant to real-life transformation. As within so without. Whether you are healing old wounds, aligning with your purpose, calling in True abundance alignment, or simply cultivating peace, this book is your sacred companion.I invite you to read each Spiritual Mind Treatment aloud, breathe with it, pause with it. Let it speak through you, not just to you. Don't rush. Let yourself Be. Add what feels right to each as you let your Higher Self speak through your own voice. Let it awaken your remembrance of who you really are.You are not broken. You are not lost. You are ready. You always were... your ego was just veiling it.

The Doctrine of the Last Things
In this incisive exploration of Judeo-Christian eschatology, William O. E. Oesterley traces the evolution of end-time doctrines from ancient Jewish writings to early Christian thought.Drawing on texts such as the Tanach, the Book of Enoch, and the Book of Jubilees, he illuminates how early Jewish apocalyptic visions-once particular to the fate of Israel-gave way to the Christian concept of a universal judgment. Positioned within the wider context of biblical scholarship, Oesterley offers a methodical yet accessible account of how ideas of final destiny transformed across religious traditions. This work offers a compelling lens through which to understand the shifting perceptions of divine justice, salvation, and the culmination of history. A significant contribution to biblical studies, it reveals the enduring impact of early eschatological thought on Western religious consciousness.
