Matthew Kelly Knihy

Medzi veriacimi sa často stáva, že skôr či neskôr mnohí stratia ilúzie, začnú spochybňovať svoju vieru, pýtajú sa, či má ešte nejaký význam byť v dnešnom svete katolíkom. Akosi ich prestane baviť byť veriacim. Táto kniha je adresovaná všetkým, ktorých baví byť katolíkom, alebo tým, ktorí by chceli, aby ich to znovu bavilo. Autor vychádza z toho, aké dôležité je pre človeka hľadať šťastie a nájsť ho. Úprimne sa pýta, či ho možno nájsť v spoločenstve katolíkov. Odpoveď hľadá aj medzi tými, ktorí ho našli, medzi svätcami moderných i dávnych čias. Veľmi živým a osobným spôsobom približuje sedem základných pilierov života katolíka. A tých, čo pevne na týchto pilieroch dokážu stáť, vyzýva, aby sa stali vodcami, animátormi, vizionármi nového, lepšieho sveta, lepšej Cirkvi. Matthew Kelly je austrálsky konzultant pre podnikanie a obchod. Prednášal vo viac ako päťdesiatich krajinách. Popri poradenskej činnosti sa venuje Inštitútu Dynamický katolík, ktorý založil v USA. Jeho cieľom je poskytovať kvalitné vzdelávacie a edukačné materiály pre obnovu života katolíckych spoločenstiev. Je ženatý, s manželkou vychovávajú päť detí.

Táto kniha je pravdivé rozprávanie o tom, ako si ubližujeme, cítime sa preťažení, vzdávame sa snov a nemáme odvahu byť sebou samým... a ako sa znovu otvoriť šťastiu! Čo je odpor? Je to neochota robiť, o čom viete, že je pre vás dobré, a náchylnosť robiť, o čom nepochybujete, že je pre vás zlé. Je to prianie a sklon odkladať záležitosti, ktorým by ste sa práve teraz mali venovať. To sú dva citáty z obálky originálu knihy Neodporuj šťastiu. Veľmi dobre vystihujú jej obsah, ktorý zhltnete za jeden večer. A potom sa ku knihe budete vracať a v konkrétnych situáciách svojho života hľadať, ako aplikovať princípy, ktoré autor overil vo vlastnom živote. Dokonca skúsite aj iných viesť po ceste šťastia. Bude to skvelé dobrodružstvo. Dôležité: Kniha, ktorú držíte v rukách, je o Bohu!

For several decades Rafael Capurro has been at the forefront of defining the relationship between information and modernity through both phenomenological and ethical formulations. In exploring both of these themes Capurro has re-vivified the transcultural and intercultural expressions of how we bring an understanding of information to bear on scientific knowledge production and intermediation. Capurro has long stressed the need to look deeply into how we contextualize the information problems that scientific society creates for us and to re-incorporate a pragmatic dimension into our response that provides a balance to the cognitive turn in information science. With contributions from 35 scholars from 15 countries, Information Cultures in the Digital Age focuses on the culture and philosophy of information, information ethics, the relationship of information to message, the historic and semiotic understanding of information, the relationship of information to power and the future of information education. This Festschrift seeks to celebrate Rafael Capurro’s important contribution to a global dialogue on how information conceptualisation, use and technology impact human culture and the ethical questions that arise from this dynamic relationship.

We all yearn for intimacy, but we avoid it. We want it badly, but we often run from it. At some deep level we sense that we have a profound need for intimacy, but we are afraid to go there. Why? We avoid intimacy because having intimacy means exposing our secrets. Being intimate means sharing the secrets of our hearts, minds, and souls with another fragile and imperfect human being. Intimacy requires that we allow another person to discover what moves us, what inspires us, what drives us, what eats at us, what we are running toward, what we are running from, what self-destructive enemies lie within us, and what wild and wonderful dreams we hold in our hearts. In The Seven Levels of Intimacy, Matthew Kelly teaches us in practical and unforgettable ways how to know these things about ourselves and how to share ourselves more deeply with the people we love. This book will change the way you approach your relationships forever!
