A minor Bohemian nobleman who within the space of a few years became a prince and one of the greatest landowners of his a≥ a military entrepreneur who twice saved the Holy Roman Emperor from disaster with armies he raised, financed and led, but was then twice dismissed; an able general who rescued the Empire from invasion by the Swedish King Gustavus II Adolphus, but was accused of planning to defect to the self-same Swedes; the emperor's commander-in-chief, but assassinated on the emperor's orders; a successful soldier who fell because he tried too hard to make peace; Wallenstein was all these things. Contemporary legends and propaganda were taken up by early biographers of this fascinating character to create a historical myth, elements of which are still present in many more recent accounts. In this book, Geoff Mortimer sets out to clarify the picture and to resolve the enigma.

Based on the book of Proverbs and Bill Hybels's Making Life Work, this study guide will help you develop discipline, speak truth and strengthen relationships--equipping you to think and act out of godly wisdom.

A SCIENTIST'S JOURNEY THROUGH LOVE AND LOSS - TOWARD AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHY GOD ALLOWS DISEASE AND OTHER EVILS TO EXIST In his new autobiography/help guide, Science Deepens Faith, Thomas McAvoy describes the little-known cancer, pseudomyxoma peritonei, that eventually claimed the life of his wife, Jessie, and the steps he took to research the disease, in hopes of finding a cure. After diagnosis the couple took to their faith in God to prepare for what lay ahead in this disease, only to discover that few scientific studies were published on it. Sadly, Jessie succumbed to her cancer, creating a devastating loss for Thomas, their family and friends. However, Thomas' push to remember Jessie's legacy motivated him to continue researching her cancer and learn ways to cure it for others. Science Deepens Faith provides readers not only an uplifting account of Jessie's life and legacy, but also informs them about the journey in studying pseudomyxoma peritonei Thomas embarked on that led to new understandings and solution developments for the disease. Science Deepens Faith also discusses the insight Thomas gained through studying science about why evil and diseases such as cancer exist in our world and how looking critically into such subjects as the Big Bang, astronomy, evolution, physics and scripture provides an answer to this question. The discussion in the book about reconciling faith and science agrees with the opinion of famous scientists: "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." Albert Einstein "A little science estranges men from God, but much science leads them back to Him." Louis Pasteur "Any faith that admires truth, that strives to know God, must be brave enough to accommodate the universe." Carl Sagan Science Deepens Faith will help strengthen readers' faith and help them appreciate that faith and science are not in conflict."

For former biologist Dr Ruth Bancewicz, experiencing scientific research first hand brings a sense of awe that enhances faith. As a communicator of science and Christianity over the last ten years, she has encountered many others who have similar stories to tell. This book is a distillation of that experience, and an exploration of the common ground that exists between science and faith. Science can be unglamorous and difficult, but people enjoy it. It gives the opportunity to use creativity and imagination, to appreciate the beauty of the natural world, and to experience the wonder and awe of finding out new things - thinking God's thoughts after him. Through the eyes of the author and six other experienced scientists, God in the Lab shows how science can build faith in God, and gently challenges non-Christians to consider the connections between science and faith.

Tim Jennings, one of America's top psychiatrists, here reveals how our brains and bodies thrive when we have a healthy understanding of who God is. Exposing how different God concepts affect the brain differently, Dr. Jennings forges surprising new connections between neuroscience, health and right belief.

A highly respected physicist demonstrates that the essential beliefs of Christianity are wholly consistent with the laws of physics. Frank Tipler takes an exciting new approach to the age-old dispute about the relationship between science and religion in The Physics of Christianity. In reviewing centuries of writings and discussions, Tipler realized that in all the debate about science versus religion, there was no serious scientific research into central Christian claims and beliefs. So Tipler embarked on just such a scientific inquiry. The Physics of Christianity presents the fascinating results of his pioneering study. Tipler begins by outlining the basic concepts of physics for the lay reader and brings to light the underlying connections between physics and theology. In a compelling example, he illustrates how the God depicted by Jews and Christians, the Uncaused First Cause, is completely consistent with the Cosmological Singularity, an entity whose existence is required by physical law. His discussion of the scientific possibility of miracles provides an impressive, credible scientific foundation for many of Christianity’s most astonishing claims, including the Virgin Birth, the Resurrection, and the Incarnation. He even includes specific outlines for practical experiments that can help prove the validity of the “miracles” at the heart of Christianity. Tipler’s thoroughly rational approach and fully accessible style sets The Physics of Christianity apart from other books dealing with conflicts between science and religion. It will appeal not only to Christian readers, but also to anyone interested in an issue that triggers heated and divisive intellectual and cultural debates.
