Upside Down with Paul
No-one could be more determined to uphold tradition than Saul of Tarsus. Any follower of Jesus of Nazareth was his target, until he suddenly "saw the light" - by meeting Jesus himself. Filled with new understanding, he became a tireless preacher of Jesus Christ and turned the world upside down through his powerful teaching.Paul was a restless dynamo. Travelling far and wide by land and sea he preached, argued and convinced, often in the face of violent opposition. He formed new congregations wherever he went or strengthened existing ones. Everywhere, in towns and cities across the empire, Paul showed his great concern for every member - or potential member - of the fast-growing body of believers who were soon called Christians.Upside Down with Paul presents Paul's story, combining parts of his letters with the framework of Acts, interleaving it with the text of the Berean Literal Bible and many short sketches - fictional glimpses of Paul's life and work.This is the life of Paul in a way you've never seen it before.

The Divine Comedy
Dante's epic poem of the soul's journey through the afterlife remains essential reading seven centuries after its initial publication. This edition was translated by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso--the three fates of the deceased become the three pillars of an epic poem. The Divine Comedy, written by Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the fourteenth century, is considered the foremost work in Italian literature. The journey begins with Dante's descent into the depths of Hell, where he witnesses those eternally separated from God. Then he climbs the mountain of Purgatory, where Christian souls undergo final purification, before he tours the celestial circles of Heaven, where he is filled with the image of God. An allegorical work, The Divine Comedy is representative of the soul's journey toward God. Influential for seven centuries, this classic is a must-have for lovers of great literature, and this luxurious leather-bound edition from Canterbury Classics will make a stunning addition to any home library.
