如果一切都按照上帝的心意而行,今天的教会会是什么样子? 这是陈恩藩牧师迄今为止最有力量的一本 书,他深深扎根于圣经真理,回顾自己牧会历程 中的失败经历,展望教会的愿景,透过很多真实 的故事,让人看到上帝如何使用 普通的人来改 变这个世界。 正如陈牧师所说: 我们已经离上帝最初设 立教会的心意太远了。我们当前所经历的,与圣 经所描绘的教会生活有着天壤之别。多年来,教 会领袖们将教会超凡的奥秘束之高阁,把会众训 练成一群对次要事物上瘾的人。是时候悔改了。 当耶稣再来的时候,我们是忙着照顾他的新 妇还是我们自己的生活?本书提醒我们,教会原 来是如此的充满能力和荣耀,并呼召我们再一次 回到上帝最初设立教会的心意当中。

Pentasyllabic poetry has been a focus of critical study since the appearance of the earliest works of Chinese literary criticism…
in the Six Dynasties period. Throughout the subsequent dynasties, traditional Chinese critics continued to examine pentasyllabic poetry as a leading poetic type and to compile various comprehensive anthologies of it. The Matrix of Lyric Transformation enriches this tradition, using modern analytical methods to explore issues of self-expression and to trace the early formal, thematic, and generic developments of this poetic form. Beginning with a discussion of the Yüeh-fu and ku-shih genres of the Han period, Cai Zong-qi introdues the analytical framework of modes from Western literary criticism to show how the pentasyllabic poetry changed over time. He argues that changing practices of poetic composition effected a shift from a dramatic mode typical of folk compositions to a narrative mode and finally to lyric and symbolic modes developed in literati circles.

Read Crazy Love in Simplified Chinese! Now you can experience Francis Chan's life-changing message in this Simplified Chinese version of…
Crazy Love.God is love. Crazy, relentless, all-powerful love. Have you ever wondered if we're missing it?It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe--the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor--loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss.Whether you've verbalized it yet or not, we all know something's wrong.Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts-it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.Learn more about the Crazy Love Simplified Chinese version at www.crazylovebook.com/cn.
