There is no formula for becoming humble—not for individuals, and not for nations. Benjamin Franklin’s dilemma—one he passed on to the young United States—was how to achieve both greatness and humility at once. The humility James Madison learned as a legislator helped him to mold a nation, despite his reputation as a meek, timid, and weak man. The humility of Abigail Adams fed her impossible resilience. Humility of all kinds is deeply ingrained in our American DNA. Our challenge today is to rediscover and reawaken this utterly indispensable, alarmingly dormant national virtue before it’s too late.In Humility: An Unlikely Biography of America’s Greatest Virtue, Dr. David J. Bobb traces the “crooked line” that is the history of humility in political thought. From Socrates to Augustine to Machiavelli to Lincoln, passionate opinions about the humble ruler are literally all over the map. Having shown classical, medieval, and Christian ideas of humility to be irreconcilable, Dr. Bobb asserts that we as a nation are faced with a difficult choice. A choice we cannot put off any longer.“The power promised by humility is power over oneself, in self-government,” says Dr. Bobb. “[But] humility’s strength is obscured by the age of arrogance in which we live.”George Washington’s humility, as great as it was, cannot substitute for ours today. We must reintegrate this fundamental virtue if there is to be an American future. The rediscovery of humility’s strength awaits."Humility is essential to good character—and to our country. In this smart and lively book, David Bobb illustrates this virtue with the stories of five great Americans. And he reminds us that humility is at the core of our national creed of equality and liberty."—Paul Ryan"Nothing defies political correctness and the prevailing zeitgeist as radically as the notion that humility remains an important virtue. Dr. Bobb not only makes the case for this dismissed and disregarded value but emphasizes its importance as part of the American national character."—Michael Medved, syndicated talk radio host"A lively and counterintuitive argument, spiced with witty prose and engaging vignettes of Franklin, Washington, Madison, Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and Abigail Adams."—Robert Faulkner, professor of Political Science, Boston College; author, The Case for Greatness“Dr. David Bobb has written a timely and timeless book on a vital virtue absent from far too many leaders today. Humility should be required reading for leaders in the public and private sector as well as in our homes and communities. In an age of arrogance there is much to be learned and strength to be gained from returning to the principle, power and pattern of humility contained in this extraordinary book.” --Mike Lee, U.S. Senator, Utah

Jesús nos entiende porque fue humano como nosotros, y experimentó las mismas frustraciones y anhelos que nosotros encontramos a diario. Sintió nuestra profunda tristeza y experimentó nuestra soledad más oscura. Por encima de todo, Jesús nos entiende.En la época de Jesús, las comunidades estaban divididas profundamente por amargas diferencias de creencias religiosas, posiciones políticas, ingresos desiguales, estatus legal y diferencias étnicas. ¿Pero cuál fue la posición de Jesús en todo esto? ¿Se alineó con las élites religiosas? ¿O inició una rebelión para derrocarlas? Ninguna de las dos cosas.En cambio, fue de pueblo en pueblo, ofreciendo esperanza, nueva vida, y modelando una forma diferente de vivir y de cambiar el mundo. En vez de buscar poder, dinero o autoridad religiosa, compartió una forma de vida amorosa y sacrificialmente generosa: promovió un camino mejor. Pero ¿cómo podemos aplicar el enfoque de Jesús al cristianismo moderno?En las páginas de Él nos entiende, encontrarás 14 de las preguntas más frecuentes sobre Jesús, entre ellas: ¿Estuvo alguna vez estresado? ¿Alguna vez se sintió solo? ¿Lloró alguna vez? ¿Se divertía Jesús? ¿Cómo se enfrentó a la injusticia? ¿Se hartó de la política? Cada capítulo incluye preguntas frecuentes, respuestas detalladas de los colaboradores de Él nos entiende y escritos seleccionados del autor de mayor ventas del New York Times, Max Lucado, un código QR que nos lleva a un video profundo que podemos compartir con otros, y versículos eternos de las Escrituras.Ya sea que estés explorando la fe por primera vez, buscando respuestas a las preguntas difíciles de la vida o buscando una relación más profunda con Jesús, Él nos entiende será tu guía en cada paso del camino.He Gets UsJesus understands our lives because he was human too. He faced the same hardships and personal struggles that we encounter daily. He felt our deepest sadness and experienced our darkest solitude. Above all, Jesus gets us.In Jesus' time, communities were deeply divided by bitter differences in religious beliefs, political positions, income inequality, legal status, and ethnic differences. But where was Jesus in all of this? Did he align with the religious elites? Or did he start an uprising to overthrow them? Neither of the above.Instead, he went from town to town, offering hope, new life, and modeling a different way to live and to change the world. Instead of pursuing power, money, or religious authority, he shared a loving and sacrificially generous way of living--he championed a better way. But how can we understand the Jesus of the Bible today?Inside the pages of He Gets Us, you'll find 14 of the most frequently asked questions about Jesus, including: Was Jesus ever stressed? Was Jesus ever lonely? Did Jesus ever mourn? Did Jesus have fun? How did Jesus deal with injustice? Was Jesus fed up with politics? Each chapter includes an FAQ, detailed responses from contributors of He Gets Us and selected writings from New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado, a QR code that takes you to a profound video that you can watch and share with others, and timeless Scripture verses.

La vida actual está llena de riesgos para los jóvenes, cuyo buen juicio, tierno y en formación, está más propenso a extraviarse.La sociedad pone poco freno al libertinaje y ahora parece que más importante que lo sustancial es lo accesorio: el vicio predomina por sobre la virtud, la temeridad por sobre la prudencia, el exceso por sobre la moderación y la injusticia por sobre la honradez. Quienes se ven más desorientados por esta pérdida de valores son los jóvenes, por eso, a la manera de las epístolas clásicas, Rogelio Guedea le escribe estas cartas a su hijo, en las cuales le provee de las herramientas necesarias para poder sortear las amenazas que le imponga la vida. Desde las drogas, el alcohol, la pornografía, el sexo hasta las redes sociales, las malas compañías, la ansiedad, etcétera, y a través de ejemplos sacados de la vida propia y de la de otros, estas cartas no son más que una forma de evidenciar el amor de un padre a su hijo, y de proveerle con las herramientas de ética y sabiduría los elementos que necesitan más que nunca.Letters to BrunoLife today is fraught with danger for the young, whose tender, forming good judgment is most likely to err.Society puts little brake on licentiousness and now it seems that the accessory is more important than the substantial: vice prevails over virtue, imprudence over prudence, excess over moderation and injustice over honesty. The most disoriented by this loss of values ??are the young, therefore, in the manner of the classic epistles, Rogelio Guedea writes these letters to his son, in which he provides him with the necessary tools to improve himself. the threats that life imposes on me. From drugs, alcohol, pornography, sex to social networks, bad company, anxiety, etc., and through examples drawn from one's own life and that of others, these letters are nothing more than a way of demonstrating the love of a father to his son, and endow him with the tools of ethics and wisdom, the elements that he needs more than ever.

Esta obra, publicada originalmente en 1936, constituye uno de los trabajos académicos más influyentes de C. S. Lewis en el campo de la literatura medieval. En ella se desarrolla un profundo estudio sobre la poesía amorosa alegórica de la Edad Media, cuyo origen se sitúa en los poemas de «amor cortés» de los trovadores del Languedoc desde el siglo XI, a través de su transformación y fin a finales del siglo XVI.Esta poesía de los trovadores, que constituiría el primer modo de expresión del amor «romántico», supuso tal cambio respecto de la literatura precedente que, como el propio Lewis señala, «no dejó intocado rincón alguno en nuestra ética, nuestra imaginación y nuestra vida diaria, erigiendo barreras infranqueables entre nosotros y el pasado clásico o el presente oriental. Comparado con esta revolución, el Renacimiento es un simple remolino en la superficie de la literatura».Resulta particularmente relevante dentro del presente ensayo el estudio que Lewis realiza de El libro de la rosa, obra cumbre del género dentro de la literatura tardo medieval.The Allegory of LoveThis work, originally published in 1936, constitutes one of the most influential academic works of C.S. Lewis in the field of medieval literature. It develops an in-depth study of the allegorical love poetry of the Middle Ages, whose origins lie in the "courtly love" poems of the Languedoc troubadours in eleventh century, through its transformation and gradual demise at the end of the sixteenth century.This poetry of the troubadours, which would constitute the first mode of expression of «romantic» love, supposed such a change with respect to the preceding literature that, as Lewis himself points out, "it left no corner untouched in our ethics, our imagination and our lives. daily, erecting insurmountable barriers between us and the classical past or the Eastern present. Compared with this revolution, the Renaissance is a mere whirlpool on the surface of literature."Lewis's study of The Book of the Rose, the masterpiece of the genre within late medieval literature, is particularly relevant in this essay.
