Twelve Churches wer. angielska - Fergus Butler-Gallie - książka
Producent: Hodder & Stoughton
In his distinctive style of deep respect and lively enthusiasm, The Reverend Fergus Butler-Gallie explores the essence of the religion he fervently loves. His book transports readers from Bethlehem at the birth of Christ over two millennia ago to the present-day and beyond, examining the evolution of Christianity. The journey contrasts a Baptist Church in the racially divided American South against a medieval monastery in rural Greece and compares the grandeur of the Vatican, the epicenter of Catholicism, with a modest, secluded church perched on Southern Japan's rugged coast. "Twelve Churches" embarks on an exploration of Christianity's people's history through the narratives of twelve diverse churches worldwide. Butler-Gallie weaves together a mosaic of interconnected human stories that guide us on a historical and geographical expedition, delving into themes of hope, faith, and beauty in Christianity, as well as its turbulent intersections with sex, violence, and power. He eloquently illustrates that the account of Christianity is intricately linked to the story of our contemporary world: a reflection on our aspirations and our realities.
