I Templari, l'ordine religioso-militare più potente del Medioevo, con tutta probabilità per un certo periodo custodirono la sindone oggi conservata a Torino. Venerato nel più rigido segreto e conosciuto nella sua reale natura solo dai maggiori dignitari dell'ordine, il telo era conservato nel tesoro centrale dei Templari, che avevano fama di essere autorità nel campo delle reliquie. In un'epoca di confusione dottrinale per la Chiesa, la sindone per i Templari poteva essere un potente antidoto contro la diffusione delle eresie.

Una storia gloriosa quanto tormentata, quella dei Templari, segnata da processi, roghi, scandali, accuse di eresia: è forse per questo che intorno al potente ordine cavalleresco non hanno mai smesso di fiorire leggende e miti, destinati a suscitare un sempre rinnovato interesse. Il libro ne dipana l'intricata vicenda, dalla fondazione nel Duecento all'abolizione agli inizi del Trecento, in un racconto limpido e appassionante, basato su ricerche originali che hanno portato l'autrice a rintracciare il documento che attesta l'assoluzione papale dei cavalieri del Tempio.

This brief and lively pamphlet on the history of the medieval church is a concise and entertaining introduction to an extremely complex subject.

La storia della Chiesa è stata, fin dai suoi albori, estremamente travagliata. Questo libro ne ripercorre le vicende approfondendo i principali "momenti" che hanno talvolta portato quest'istituzione a fortificarsi, altre volte a indebolirsi ma, in ogni caso, a cambiare in relazione ai vari contesti storici. Si va dalla "rivoluzione" attuata da Costantino, si passa per Carlo Magno con cui, nel primo millennio, l'impero assunse un carattere sacro, si arriva al Grande Scisma, alla lotta per le investiture, alla riforma protestante dilagata dal nord Europa.

John Newton, Charles Simeon, and William Wilberforce suffered lifelong opposition and endured for the causes of gospel truth, missionary zeal, and political justice. They found, in solid doctrine and humble joy, the tough roots for habitual tenderness in response to their adversaries - without doctrinal or moral flinching. They are examples of remarkable grace. In the third book of the Swans Are Not Silent series, best-selling author John Piper looks at the lives of these three great men and how they not only endured great opposition but did so with joy and without bitterness.

At the beginning of the 16th century, a religious revolution shattered the outward appearance of conformity among Europe's Roman Catholics...a conformity that had been the basis of Western European unity for over a thousand years.
