  • The Wonder of the Cross

    The God Who Uses Evil and Suffering to Destroy Evil and Suffering

    by Richard A. Shenk ...
    When considering and confronting the problem of evil, we may be asking the wrong question: Why is there evil in the world if God is good and powerful? It may be wrong because it smuggles in an unbiblical premise: God can and should use his coercive power to relieve suffering since he is both good and able. But what if coercive power does not work to accomplish God's goals? This book is an ... Read more

    Cathedrals in the twenty-first century

    by Peter Atkinson, Nicholas Henshall, David Hoyle, Christopher Irvine, Jane Kennedy, Simon Oliver, Jennie Page, Richard Shephard ...

But cathedrals are ... Read more

  • Philosophy, God and Motion

    by Simon Oliver ...
    Series series Routledge Radical Orthodoxy
    In the post-Newtonian world motion is assumed to be a simple category which relates to the locomotion of bodies in space, and is usually associated only with physics. This book shows this to be a relatively recent understanding of motion and that prior to the scientific revolution motion was a broader and more mysterious category, applying to moral as well as physical movements.Simon Oliver ...

    by C. G. Jung ...
    Translated by R. F.C. Hull ...
