The Missionary Evangel

"The Missionary Evangel" is a profound exploration of the theological foundations and practical imperatives of Christian missionary work. Comprising the Fondren Lectures delivered at Southern Methodist University in 1925, Edwin D. Mouzon presents a compelling vision for the global spread of the Gospel. The work delves into the essential nature of the evangelistic message, examining how the teachings of Christ demand a missionary response from the church. Mouzon addresses the challenges of the early 20th century, seeking to reconcile traditional faith with the evolving social and intellectual landscape of the era. Through a series of insightful lectures, the author emphasizes the universal scope of the Christian mission and the vital role of the "Evangel" in bringing about personal and social transformation. This volume serves as a significant historical document in Methodist theology, offering readers an in-depth look at the missionary fervor and theological reflections that shaped Protestant thought during this period. It is an essential resource for students of religious history, missiology, and the development of American theological discourse.

The Cambridge Handbook of Law and Responsible Business

This Handbook provides the first comprehensive examination of the legal strategies around the world shaping sustainability in global value chains. Bringing together leading scholars, it maps how diverse legal disciplines (including corporate law, labour law, tax law, tort law, private law, environmental law, international law and more) conceptualise and regulate the complex architectures of cross-border production. Through a unifying analytical framework, the book reveals how fragmented regulatory approaches can complement one another, and how legal tools may address the environmental, social, and economic challenges that global production networks create and sustain. Covering jurisdictions across the globe and engaging with emerging regulatory instruments such as due diligence laws, sustainability reporting obligations, climate transition plans, and international taxation initiatives, this Handbook offers an indispensable resource for academics, policymakers, practitioners, and students concerned with responsible business conduct and sustainable development. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Forty Nine Days

We do not know how to die. Modern secular culture has removed death from the centre of life and left us with almost nothing to draw on when it arrives. This book draws on two sources rarely brought together: contemporary neuroscience on what the dying brain actually does, and the accumulated wisdom of Buddhist traditions that have been thinking carefully about death for two and a half millennia. The dying person is still present, still receiving, still being shaped by what surrounds them. The traditions have known this for centuries. The neuroscience is now confirming it. Four traditions are examined in depth. Tibetan Vajrayana provides a detailed map of the dying process and specific practices for those who sit with the dying and the recently dead. Japanese Pure Land offers a complete release from the requirement to perform at the moment of death. Korean Zen kido is sustained collective chanting for the dead, giving grief something active to do across the forty-nine days. Theravada trains the mind directly in the perceptual encounter with impermanence. Chinese Pure Land and Zen death culture are explored as additional perspectives, each offering something the others do not. Written from the inside, by a practitioner with more than two decades across these traditions. No prior Buddhist knowledge required.

So Many Paths, So Many Ways

Sri Ramakrishna claimed to have verified something extraordinary: that practicing Islam, Christianity, and multiple Hindu paths each led him to the same encounter with the divine. Joto mot, toto path. As many opinions, so many paths. This book is an attempt, honest about its limitations, to run the same experiment. Over fifteen years, the author attended services, study circles, and retreats across fourteen traditions, from a Sufi dargah in Delhi to a Sikh langar in Manchester to a Pentecostal revival meeting in Liverpool. He did not find what Ramakrishna found. What he found instead was a sharper question: what would it actually cost to stop being a seeker and become a practitioner? A memoir of religious encounter for the spiritually curious who go broad rather than deep.

Der unsichtbare Mann

Wie so oft bleibt auch in Bellovás Prosa der zeitlich-räumliche Hintergrund vage und unbestimmt. Es könnte heute sein, es könnten die 1960er- oder 1930er-Jahre sein; es könnte in der Türkei spielen, in Griechenland, vielleicht in Spanien - oder an einem ganz anderen Ort und zu einer anderen Zeit. Diese Ungewissheit spiegelt sich in der Erzählerin selbst - der Hauptfigur, die sich eines Tages aus einer unglücklichen Ehe befreit und "auf den Weg" macht. Sie kehrt dorthin zurück, wo alles begann - in ihr Heimatdorf und versucht herauszufinden, wer sie wirklich ist und was in den Generationen ihrer Eltern und Großeltern schiefgelaufen ist. Wie ihr Vater, der titelgebende "unsichtbare Mann", auf tragische Weise ums Leben kam und warum ihre Mutter dreißig Jahre lang verstummte. Sie vergleicht damals und heute und stellt die Vergangenheit der Gegenwart gegenüber - all dies vor dem Hintergrund einer dramatischen, zugespitzten Atmosphäre eines namenlosen Krieges. Trotz aller Unbestimmtheit wird am Ende klar, wofür die Autorin steht: für das Weibliche, für Gefühle, für Heimat und Nachkommenschaft - gegen die immer wiederkehrende menschliche Dummheit und Ignoranz, gegen Neid und Hass, die den Menschen und seine Seele ersticken.
