That was such a strange wonder, that the righteous martyr could walk headless, praising God Almighty, and moreover run with troops of angels; 308 but God desired to declare through that strange sign that his soul lived, though the body might be slain, and would manifest to men how great faith the holy man had in the Saviour in life. 312 Sisinnius, notwithstanding, the unhappy judge, would not believe in Christ, but bade men kill all who, through Dionysius' lore, believed in God, with divers tortures very savagely; 316 and their souls departed to the true life. The holy priest's body and that of the faithful deacon, Eusticus and Eleutherius, lay upon the hill, where they were beheaded with the holy bishop, 320 when his body went away, even as we wrote before. Then the heathen executioners bare the Saints' bodies presently to ship, desiring to sink them in the flood, but the Almighty Creator brought to naught that evil counsel. 324 There was a certain noble lady who knew their evil counsel, and invited the executioners to her, as if for friendship, and made them drunk with wine, and bade men go secretly meanwhile to the ship and steal away the bodies; 328 and she kept them reverently till the persecution ceased, 318. preostas (!). 328. forstelan. 321.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Here in this book, you have a godly person's portrait, and you see him portrayed in his full qualities and features. What a rare thing godliness is! Godliness is a ray and beam that shines from God. If God is true, then godliness is true. Genuine godliness is not light and fluffy, but it is solid and will engage the heart and spirit. Christian, aspire after piety; it is a lawful ambition. Look at the saints' characteristics here, and never stop until you have got those same characteristics stamped upon your own soul.

Expositions of the Psalms 1-32 (Vol. 1)

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo."--Publisher's website.
