�A cu�ntas personas conoce que dicen creer en Dios . . . pero nadie lo sabr�a al examinar sus vidas? A pesar de sus buenas intenciones, su fe no ha causado un gran impacto en su propia vida ni tampoco en la de los dem�s; puede que asistan a la iglesia los domingos, pero Dios no parece hacer mucha diferencia los otros seis d�as de la semana. Quiz�s esto lo describe a usted, y est� comenzando a darse cuenta de que el "antes de Cristo" de su vida se parece mucho al "despu�s de Cristo." �Es eso realmente lo mejor que tiene para ofrecer la fe en Jes�s? El evangelista y conferencista Luis Palau ha encontrado personas de todos los �mbitos de la vida que creen en Dios, pero nunca han experimentado una transformaci�n real que defina sus vidas. En Transformado por la fe Luis Palau ofrece una mirada realista y directa al mundo destrozado a nuestro alrededor, el verdadero poder redentor del evangelio y lo que significa para la vida de usted hoy. A trav�s de dram�ticas historias personales y una s�lida perspectiva b�blica, Palau examina los cambios pr�cticos que llegan cuando una persona comienza a seguir las ense�anzas de Jesucristo y muestra c�mo Dios puede tomar las cenizas de su vida y transformarlas en algo hermoso. How many people do you know who say they believe in God but you'd never know it from looking at their lives? Despite good intentions, their faith isn't life-changing or world-shaking; they may go to church on Sundays but God doesn't seem to make much difference the other six days. Maybe this describes you, and you're starting to realize that the "before" of your life looks a lot like the "after." Is that really the best faith in Jesus has to offer? International evangelist and speaker Luis Palau has encountered people from all walks of life who believe in God but have never experienced real, life-defining transformation. In Changed by Faith, he offers a gritty, up-close look at the broken world around us, the true redemptive power of the gospel-and what it means for your life today. Through dramatic personal stories and solid scriptural perspective, Luis looks at the practical changes that come when you begin to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ-and shows how God can take the ashes of your life and transform them into something beautiful.

Galenism, a rational, coherent medical system embracing all health and disease related matters, was the dominant medical doctrine in the Latin West during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Deriving from the medical and philosophical views of Galen (129-c.210/6) as well as from his clinical practice, Latin Galenism had its origins in 12th-century Salerno and was constructed from the cultural exchanges between the Arabic and Christian worlds. It flourished all over Europe, following the patterns of expansion of the university system during the subsequent centuries and was a major factor in shaping the healing systems of the Christian, Jewish and Muslim communities - the subject of a previous volume by Professor García-Ballester. The present collection deals with a wide array of issues regarding the historical Galen and late medieval and Renaissance Galenism, but focuses in particular on the relationship between theory and practice. It includes first English versions of two major studies originally published in Spanish.

En octubre de 2007, el autor Clinton Cruickshank comenzó a recibir una serie de revelaciones con una claridad poco común. Debido al contenido de las mismas, entendió que se trataba de revelaciones de Dios. En el Misterio de Dios, Cruickshank comparte estas revelaciones del Señor que son para todos nosotros. En él, proporciona las respuestas a una serie de preguntas que han intrigado a la humanidad durante siglos. Para explicar algunas de las obras y actos divinos de Dios, Cruickshank tuvo que crear una variedad de nuevos términos y expresiones. Expresiones tales como, el principio del holograma, el principio inverso del holograma, la infraestructura infinita, el canal de recepción primario (CRP), el canal de recepción secundario (CRS) y muchas más. El Misterio de Dios también aborda más de tres docenas de preguntas esenciales con respuestas que revelan su propósito y sus designios para el ser humano y para su reino. Dios explica, asimismo, por qué él es el alfa y la omega y aclara la diferencia entre él como el Dios alfa y él como el Dios omega sin dejar de ser el mismo y único Dios. De esta manera, Cruickshank nos comparte sorprendentes revelaciones que nos da un atisbo, un extraordinario vistazo al misterio de Dios.

The first Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (PCSMGE) was held in Mexico in 1959. Every 4 years since then, PCSMGE has brought together the geotechnical engineering community from all over the world to discuss the problems, solutions and future challenges facing this engineering sector. Sixty years after the first conference, the 2019 edition returns to Mexico. This book, Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges, presents the proceedings of the XVI Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XVI PCSMGE), held in Cancun, Mexico, from 17 – 20 November 2019. Of the 393 full papers submitted, 335 were accepted for publication after peer review. They are included here organized into 19 technical sessions, and cover a wide range of themes related to geotechnical engineering in the 21st century. Topics covered include: laboratory and in-situ testing; analytical and physical modeling in geotechnics; numerical modeling in geotechnics; unsaturated soils; soft soils; foundations and retaining structures; excavations and tunnels; offshore geotechnics; transportation in geotechnics; natural hazards; embankments and tailings dams; soils dynamics and earthquake engineering; ground improvement; sustainability and geo-environment; preservation of historic sites; forensics engineering; rock mechanics; education; and energy geotechnics. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of research into innovative and challenging applications in the field, the book will be of interest to all those working in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. In this proceedings, 58% of the contributions are in English, and 42% of the contributions are in Spanish or Portuguese.
