The Way of Love: Reflections on Pope Benedict XVI's Encyclical Deus Caritas Est


Carl A. Anderson - 2006
    From the very beginning, the fundamental work of the Institute has been pursuing a deeper understanding of God's plan for marriage and family. In these tewnty-five years various generations of students and professors, following the legacy of John Paul II, have been able to discover and communicate the beauty of the vocation for which all men have been created: the call to love. Twenty-six professors from the Institute's various sessions express what in their understanding are the main themes of the document, approaching the topics raised by the Holy Father with different theological and philosophical perspectives; by so doing they have highlighted the significance and fecundity of the lines of thought suggested by the Pope. This book is offered as a path towards a fuller understanding the profunditiy and richness of the love with which God fills us and wants us to communicate in our turn.

Nephi's Isaiah


Denver Carlos Snuffer Jr. - 2006
    He wrote 18 chapters quoting or paraphrasing Isaiah. Nephi's Isaiah is an extraordinary analysis of the reason Nephi included the Isaiah quotes in his works, and the message he intended for us. This book is a tour through prophecies directly speaking to the latter-days in which we live. Sometimes alarming, sometimes comforting, always informing; this bold discussion of Nephi's meaning is unlike anything you've read on the subject before. This is the second book by Denver C. Snuffer, Jr., and is a companion to his earlier book, The Second Comforter: Conversing With the Lord Through the Veil. It not only interprets Nephi's warnings and reasons, it also gives you a new method for your own scripture study. After you read this book, you will never view the scriptures the same.
