In this timely, provocative, and uplifting journey, the bestselling author of Walking the Bible searches for the man at the heart of the world’s three monotheistic religions—and today’s deadliest conflicts. At a moment when the world is asking “can the religions get along?” one figure stands out as the shared ancestor of Jews, Muslims, and Christians. One man holds the key to our deepest fears—and our possible reconciliation. Abraham is that man. Bruce Feiler set out on a personal quest to better understand our common patriarch. Traveling in war zones, climbing through caves and ancient shrines, and sitting down with the world’s leading religious minds, Feiler uncovers fascinating, little known details of the man who defines faith for half the world. Both immediate and timeless, Abraham is a powerful, universal story, the first-ever interfaith portrait of the man God chose to be his partner. Thoughtful and inspiring, it offers a rare vision of hope that will redefine what we think about our neighbors, our future, and ourselves.

WHEN WE RECEIVE THE BLESSING OF GOD it's easy to say, "Great Is Thy Faithfulness". But can we say that when everything we've ever known and loved is burned to the ground, when our friends and family are being carried away, and when we are watching it all from a cave across the street? That's Jeremiah's world that causes him to sing 5 funeral dirges that make up the Book of Lamentations. If you find yourself weeping in the night, I pray that you will be honest with yourself and honest with God. Feel what you feel, and pour it out to the greatest lover of your soul, Jesus Christ, Faithful and True is He. Sometimes we have to encourage ourselves and like Jeremiah say, "I say to myself, The LORD is my portion, therefore I will wait for him" Lamentations 3:24

Some differences between Catholicism and Protestantism can be tricky to grasp, but one of them just requires the ability to count: Catholic bibles have seventy-three books, whereas Protestant bibles have sixty-sis - plus an appendix with the strange title Apocrypha. What's the story here? Protestants claim that the medieval Catholic Church added six extra books that had never been considered part of the Old Testament, either by Jews or early Christians. Catholics say that the Protestant Reformers removed those books, long considered part of Sacred Scripture, because they didn't like what they contained. In Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger, Gary Michuta presents a revised and expanded version of his authoritative work on this key issue. Combing the historical record from pre-Christian times to the Patristic era to the Reformation and its aftermath, he traces the canon controversy through the writings and actions of its major players.
