Book Description
Re-imagining at the Sources offers the fruits of a lifetime's reflection on the Bible and its role within the Christian faith, from a respected scholar and priest. Atwell lays out the history of Israel, and the biblical roots of Christian faith from the origins of Israel's religious traditions to Jesus of Nazareth. This book explores the sources of faith and analyses the complex faith-journey that has taken place as Israel's religious traditions have developed. The book provides a single coherent account which joins up the period covered by Israel's early religious traditions with that of Second Temple Judaism, and the world of Jesus of Nazareth. A distinctive feature of the volume is its focus on apocalyptic literature.

Book Description
The characteristics of students of today were gathered from student outputs, key informants and literature regarding students’ life style positioning and peculiar traits. From the data collected, key points were marked with codes extracted from the text and grouped into similar concepts. From these concepts, categories were formed, which became the basis for an acronym to describe the peculiar characteristics of today’s generation. At saturation point the acronym “epic†was chosen to convey the four emergent themes which may literally mean, “extending beyond the usual or ordinary especially in size or scope†. Indeed, the present generation is of unprecedented size in its interconnections via World Wide Web. Secondly, this generation is fittingly called Epic Generation because of its peculiar characteristics: experiential, participative, image-driven, and connected.

Book Description
As I sat down to write the preface of this book, I couldn't help but contemplate the incredible significance of the Biblical figures I have included in its pages. These were not just ordinary individuals but rather extraordinary men and women who played pivotal roles in shaping the course of human history and Christianity as we know it. Each individual has a unique story, from Judas Iscariot's infamous betrayal of Jesus to Esther's bravery in saving her people, Mary Magdalene's unwavering faith, Samson's incredible strength, and Barabbas' miraculous pardon. Through this book, I aim to unveil these epic faith figures' stories, struggles, and triumphs in a way that will inspire and enlighten readers. By exploring the stories of these Biblical figures, we can discover valuable lessons that are just as relevant today as they were thousands of years ago. These stories offer guidance, strength, and comfort to those who seek to deepen our faith and understanding of God's plan for us. So, join me on this journey as we delve into the Divine Chronicles and uncover the stories of epic faith. Let us discover the lessons of the past and apply them to our lives today, drawing strength and inspiration from the incredible individuals who have come before us.

Book Description
In this beautifully conceived book, Ayesha Ramachandran reconstructs the imaginative struggles of early modern artists, philosophers, and writers to make sense of something that we take for granted: the world, imagined as a whole. Once a new, exciting, and frightening concept, “the world” was transformed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. But how could one envision something that no one had ever seen in its totality? The Worldmakers moves beyond histories of globalization to explore how “the world” itself—variously understood as an object of inquiry, a comprehensive category, and a system of order—was self-consciously shaped by human agents. Gathering an international cast of characters, from Dutch cartographers and French philosophers to Portuguese and English poets, Ramachandran describes a history of firsts: the first world atlas, the first global epic, the first modern attempt to develop a systematic natural philosophy—all part of an effort by early modern thinkers to capture “the world” on the page.
