耶稣的读心术

《耶稣的读心术》
作者: 曾思翰

你是否敢让这位将人看透透的弥赛亚,揭穿你的心?

佛洛伊德曾说:「举凡是人,都无法掩饰、隐藏他的内心;纵然守口如瓶,但从眼神和一些细微动作,都将被掀锅开盖、一目了然。 」

诚如佛洛伊德所言,人多少会因为某些缘故而戴上虚假的面具,企图遮掩暧昧难测的心思意念,是不为人知、甚至连自己也没有意识到的内心小剧场。 More

Finding Holy in the Suburbs

Finding Holy in the Suburbs: Living Faithfully in the Land of Too Much
By Ashley Hales

Suburban life – including tract homes, strip malls, commuter culture – shapes our desires.

More than half of Americans live in the suburbs.  Ashley Hales writes that for many Christians, however: “The suburbs are ignored (‘Your place doesn’t matter, we’re all going to heaven anyway’), denigrated and demeaned (‘You’re selfish if you live in a suburb; you only care about your own safety and More

极重无比的荣耀

《极重无比的荣耀》  The Weight Of Glory And Other Addresses
作者: 鲁益师 C. S. Lewis

基督的荣耀,真真实实就隐藏在你我身上。

九篇鲁益师经典的演讲,貌似向着不同的人群、谈论著不同生活化的主题,但却皆直指同一个核心:对永恒的在意。对永恒的在意,影响着我们求知的态度、如何响应社会责任、灵性生命的觉察、如何对待身旁的人与群体,以及是否愿意致力委身于永生的事务。

在信息爆炸、世俗文化当道的现今,鲁益师充满意象的文字依然跨越世纪的交隔、 More

蒸汽人生

《蒸汽人生》  : 传道书教我的生命智慧 Life As Vapor
作者: 吴仲诚

传道书的生命扣问,也是二十一世纪普世人类所面对和关切的议题。

人生是「日光之下」活着的人们,每天都要经历的课题。

上帝知道我们不免仍以世人的眼光追求成就、财富、爱情、生死和后代子孙,以致花费最多努力为这一切打拚(「莫强如」),但是人生的失常、反常和无常,也让我们尝尽了箇中滋味。 传道者说人生像蒸汽(「虚空」的原意),它短暂、不扎实、 More

蔗民神学

《蔗民神学》 : 平凡门徒的信仰与实践    Zhemin Theology

有头发,谁想当瘌痢?若可成实木,谁想当蔗渣?然而,在如同蔗渣板的人生里,蔗民如何经验上帝所赐予他们的普通恩典、普通智能、普通快乐、普通人生呢?且看作者王礽福如何以其蔗民之眼,窥看人世百态;以其蔗民之口,追问人生颠簸无常的缘由; More

God, Where Are You?!

God, Where Are You?!
By John Bevere

Do you feel lost in a difficult season, wondering, “GOD, WHERE ARE YOU?!”

Perhaps you heard God speak, but now He seems silent.  Maybe you moved forward in faith, but now His presence is nowhere to be found.  Welcome to the wilderness ― the place between receiving a promise from God and seeing it come to pass.

But here’s the good news ― this is no purposeless wasteland.  More

You Can Understand the Book of Genesis

In the Beginning — A Good Place to Start

From Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to Joseph’s reunion with his family.  Do you ever wonder if God really did create the world in seven days?  What’s the deal with Cain and Abel anyway?  And just how big was that boat Noah built?  More

门徒好丰盛

《门徒好丰盛》  Living In Christ’s Presence
作者: 魏乐德 Dallas Willard

想到周末要聚会、参加主日,就觉得意兴阑珊?看到圣经中密密麻麻的文字,便立刻产生睡意?提到作主门徒、进入神国,就立刻因为繁琐的课程与训练而头昏脑胀?

二十一世纪的人们常用「厌世」来形容自己的生活。不是真的想离世而去,而是屈服于生活所带来的无意义感。基督徒或许不会这么悲观,因为圣经应许跟随基督的人会拥有丰盛的生命。但是,丰盛的生命跟「聚会」、「门徒」、 More
