Alan Bullock Libri

Similitudini e differenze tra Hitler e Stalin sono da sempre all'attenzione degli storici, ma nessuno prima di Bullock aveva provato a seguire le biografie dei due dittatori in parallelo. Alla luce della prospettiva storica emersa dopo la caduta del muro di Berlino nell'89, Bullock esamina e confronta il partito nazionalsocialista e il pcus, l'organizzazione dello stato e le scelte strategiche delle dittature sovietica e nazista, senza trascurare l'indagine psicologica dei rispettivi capi quando serve a penetrare meglio i prodromi e gli esiti delle vicende chiave. Ne emerge la ricostruzione inedita di un'epoca tragica della nostra storia recente, segnata da rivoluzioni e totalitarismi, ideologie, diplomazia e guerra.

Throughout God's Word it is clear that our Father longs for us to have an intimate relationship with Him. Sometimes, however, we can get locked behind doors of lack, sickness, sin and missed opportunity. We forget that Christ, God's son, is more than able to forgive, heal, free and deliver us from the chains the enemy and we ourselves have placed upon us. Alan Bullock guides you through 48 Scriptural keys, unlocking the doors to continued growth and wholeness. Here you'll find the keys of freedom, spiritual maturity, conquest and much more. Christian Spirituality is not only about the goal of becoming mature, but it's also about the daily walk with the Lord into the hidden treasures of the kingdom of God that brings us there. Alan offers the reader a deep spiritual truth with each key that will help the reader to recover the full spirituality of the Christian faith. Each truth and key combination is rich with strategies for achieving spiritual well-being.
