Baker Pocket Guide to World Religions, The: What Every Christian Needs to Know (Baker Pocket Guides To...)

$9.99
The Baker Pocket Guide to World Religions by Gerald McDermott may be small, but it provides all the information Christians need to get a basic understanding of the major world religions. The book devotes separate chapters to Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Confucianism and Daoism, Christianity, Shinto, and Islam.

Each chapter describes the particular religion and explains its belief system. Sidebars provide additional interesting information on such topics as reincarnation, yoga, the differences between Catholics and Protestants, and The DaVinci Code. In addition, each chapter contains a testimony from a practioner of the faith. In the chapters on the non-monotheistic religions, McDermott provides comparisons to Christianity and/or an analysis of the religion from a Christian perspective. The final chapter is devoted to two questions: Should we evangelize people in other religions? and Can we learn from other religions? McDermott answers yes to both questions and uses this last chapter to explain how and why.

McDermott writes respectfully of each religion in a style that's clear and easy to understand. This book would make a great evangelistic tool and an excellent study guide for a small group or Sunday School class. When Paul met with the Greeks on Mars Hill, he brought with him a knowledge of their poets and gods that enabled him to connect with his listeners. In The Baker Pocket Guide to World Religions, Gerald McDermott has given today's Christians a resource that, wisely used, can help them prepare for their own Mars Hill encounters.

Very good voice. She has given the best rendition of Elgar's Sea Pictures that I know of.

I hold this one up to be one of my favorite Tom Baker stories of all time along with "The Ark in Space", "Genesis of the Daleks", and "Planet of Evil", and if I could choose just one story from the Tom Baker era to sum up his Doctor, then this one would have to be it. The only thing that's missing from this story is a hammer horror feel to it. But other than that, this one's got everything. It has a great script with interesting plot twists at every turn. You've got lots of mystery and action with some great humorous moments in this one. Two alien races are invading Gallifrey - the Vardans and the Sontarans. Performances are great. Tom Bkaer's Doctor is as good as ever as he is featured eating and offering everybody jelly babies in this one. For the first half of the story the Doctor appears to be a traitor by helping these alien beings invade his own world and he even turns against his own companion, Leela, in this one. And when the truth is finally revealed, the Doctor is never more heroic. K9 stands by the Doctor's side throughout the whole thing, and he is certainly a dog of action when you see him battling Sontarans with his laser nose. This is definitely a five star script.

And although the production suffers a little bit due to the fact that the BBC was having money troubles then and suffering from a strike, the story is so good you are able to forgive this story for it. Plus the new CGI effects included on this DVD also greatly improve the story - although I think I like the original shot of Gallifrey better than the new CGI shot, but other than that, the new effects are a lot better. The story is great, and is highly recommended!
