"Banyak buku mengupas tentang model kepemimpinan ditinjau dari berbagai sudut pandang dan menggunakan teori-teori mutakhir. Buku ini mungkin agak berbeda tapi tetap dalam konteks yang sama, yaitu kepemimpinan.Bagi yang mengetahui ajaran-ajaran Yesus, ada satu kalimat yang sangat khas dan merupakan kunci kepemimpinan Yesus, yaitu: ?Aku datang untuk melayani, bukan untuk dilayani?. Kalimat itu menjadi sumber segala pemikiran dan perbuatan yang dilakoni Yesus (dan seharusnya juga oleh umat-Nya). Kalimat itupun sangat relevan diterapkan dalam kepemimpinan apapun.Ken Blanchard dan Phil Hodges (penulis 'The One Minute Manager' - Metode Manajemen Paling Populer Sedunia) sudah lama memandang kepemimpinan dari sudut pandang duniawi, dan setelah mereka mencoba mengkaji dari perspektif Kitab Suci, mereka mendapatkan lebih banyak hikmat kepemimpinan daripada yang telah mereka temukan selama ini. Karena Yesus menjadi model kepemimpinan yang melayani dan memimpin dengan teladan. Kepemimpinan Yesus dinilai sangat relevan untuk setiap masa dan untuk semua kalangan karena dasarnya adalah ?kasih? dan ?melayani?.Buku ini tidak hanya cocok bagi pemimpin organisasi, perusahaan, dan gereja, tapi juga efektif di keluarga atau di kelompok-kelompok apa saja. Baca ya?-)---------------------------Risensi oleh: Kalarensi Naibaho"

"Having already treated (see: Limen, Aprill and October 2008) Cusa's doctrine of human knowledge at the level of senses, reason and intellect; where each kind of knowledge is presupposed by the next higher one as its "higher cause", now in this article the author continues to explain Cusanus' epitomology at the highest level where is a moment of absoluteness in human knowledge, viz. the knowledge of God as the fundamental A priori of human thingking. This A priori cannot be denied without affirming it just by denying, because God as "ipsa absoluta praesuppositio omnium" necessarily must be thought , not only that we are able to think something else (in order to do this, the mere idea of God is sufficient, as is already shown by Immanuel Kant) but that we are able to think anyway. Since the manner of an empirical reality nor the way of a mere idea (for both are conditional ways of being), so the manner of being of God's reality can be only be a manner beyond all manners known by us. Also beyond a "highest idea" wherein our intellectus sees coincide all other things. Human knowledge of God is like an open horizon, an infinite framework. Only within this framework any human knowledge can occur. As such this knowledge "on principle" is still without content, like an empty frame, which is to be filled by the intellectus. In virtue of its coincidence perspective, the intellect is able via imagination and reasoning to bring the sensibilia, presented to the senses, back to thhe one and only Original, to the non-being origin of all beings. This Origin present itself in otherness in the many beings in an always unique way. The work of full-filinf or perfecting our "on principle" knowledge of God by research of the beings, will never come to an end because of the infinitude of the frame. The absolute truth or the final knowledge of God remains the unattainable ultimate object of our hunt for wisdom, as Nicholas of Cues calls philosophy. "

"SummaryRetracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields. Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event? Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel's tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it's not fiction. It's a riveting quest for the truth about history?s most compelling figure. The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book's impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics-- Source other than Library of Congress."
