If Jesus' followers did not know the location of the tomb, then the case for the empty tomb (and, by extension, the case for the resurrection) is greatly undermined. In the preface (which helps to simplify this book), the authors ask “Why did China frequently move in a couple of years, in capital-intensive industries with no labor cost advantage, from bit player and net importer to the largest manufacturer and largest exporter in the world?”. Now a days, knowledge has become a buzz word in alomost every sphere of economic activities. Even some of the early ape language projects that did treat apes as feeling beings seemed to result in frustration on the part of the apes. The book is smart, fun, funny, and sometimes even sad.

This selection of religious lyrics, from eleven different authors, reveals the full range of sentiments found within early Lutheranism. In addition, there are excerpts from Heinrich Müller (1631-1675) and Christian Scriver (1629-1693), spiritual reformers who influenced the reshaping of spiritual focus that took place between the late Reformation and the rise of Lutheran Pietism. The volume contains a complete new translation of Sacred Meditations, a highly influential devotional text written by Johann Gerhard (1582-1637) the most prominent Lutheran theologian of the Age of Orthodoxy as well as an excerpt from one of his later books, which instructs readers in the practice of meditation. Müller s meditations, drawn from his sermons, are sometimes provocative and always lively. They colorfully describe scenes or stories in order to advance a moral or spiritual messageHe holds a PhD from Yale University .
