Manuel Ma Bru ofrece en este libro un análisis detallado y ameno sobre la situación de la Iglesia en el contexto actual, profundamente secularizado, en relación con la siempre acuciante llamada a proclamar el Evangelio. Para ello, repasa el concepto de Nueva Evangelización, acuñado por Juan Pablo II, y lo pone en relación con las propuestas evangelizadoras de Benedicto XVI y del Papa Francisco. Con todo ello, Bru no solo ofrece un claro diagnóstico de la situación evangelizadora de la Iglesia, sino también una propuesta de soluciones y, sobre todo, una invitación a iniciar una «nueva etapa», marcada por la siempre alegría del Evangelio, en el deber de todo cristiano de evangelizar.

This work, drawn from a symposium held at the University of Texas, El Paso, in March, 1992, brings together scholars from all over North America, as well as other parts of the world, to study diverse aspects of the comedia from an intellectual, academic perspective. Seven different aspects of the comedia are examined in detail: Spain and the New World; Staging the Comedia: Then and Now; Feminist and Gender Studies; Critical Approaches: From Philosophy to Psychology; Themes, Myths and Archetypes; The Comedia in History; The Text; and Authenticating and Editing. The variety and depth of these attests to the dynamic state of comedia studies at the end of the twentieth century, and shows that Golden Age theatre still delights us aesthetically and stimulates us intellectually.

Emotional intelligence (EQ) is especially important when it comes to leadership and ministry skills. Biblical EQ uses the Bible and the character of Jesus to show how we can grow both spiritually and emotionally into mature human beings. Biblical EQ uses the life and character of Jesus as the model to emulate. Jesus Christ shows us what it is like to be a perfect person, whose emotions are both well-expressed and well-managed in love. The Holy Spirit is God resident in human personality, with the power to change us into the image of Jesus Christ. We are not left alone to change ourselves! God the Holy Spirit will help us! So Biblical EQ will take you on a bible-based journey through the world of emotional growth and emotional intelligence. You will learn how to change your perspectives, your beliefs, thoughts and intents of the heart, manage your physical reactions to emotions, control stress, have faith and mastery in life and how to grow in love, social skills and Christian leadership.
