1000 tulosta hakusanalla Olivia Miles
Anna Madison has faithfully avoided her old flame for six years, even though their Main Street restaurants are only a few blocks apart. The sting of his rejection was enough to make her swear off dating for good, but when her successful restaurant is damaged in a fire, she's left to the mercy of the one man she's spent years proving she doesn't need...and convincing herself she doesn't want. Mark Hastings can't say he's happy being alone, but at least his heart is safe. Burnt out from running the Briar Creek diner, he's ready for a change. He tells himself he's just being neighborly by letting Anna use his kitchen, but being by her side again stirs up temptations he might not be able to resist a second time around.

Le combat inh rente l'existence humaine est per u en milieu religieux, comme spirituel. Cette tude analyse la conception du combat spirituel du franciscain Pierre de Jean Olivi (1248-1298) en parcourant principalement deux de ses nombreux crits: le Miles armatus et la Lectura super Apocalypsim. Pour cet auteur, le combat spirituel ne s'aurait tre r duire ni dans une relation intimiste ni dans une religiosit priv e si importantes soient elles. S'enracinant dans l'exp rience christique personnelle et communautaire, il reste en derni re analyse un engagement au service de l' vangile. L' glise, ferment de la vie vang lique dans l'aujourd'hui et propuls e vers l'eschaton, en est l' l ment catalyseur. L' vangile annonc et v cu en son sein engendra les viri evangelici p tris par la vie, l'enseignement et l'exemple du Christ pour un renouveau eccl sial et ipso facto celui de la soci t avec laquelle, elle partage en ces temporum finalium, l'espace et les v nements.
