Book Synopsis The Orthodox Heretic by : Pete Rollins
Download or read book The Orthodox Heretic written by Pete Rollins and published by Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd. This book was released on 2009 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pete Rollins is inspired by the fact that all language fails when it comes to describing God. This, he says, is what nourishes poets and pilgrims alike as they try to capture, enact and incarnate truth. Such truth can only be lived - it cannot be reduced to mere words. From this starting point, he revisits the parables of Jesus - odd and unexpected stories that set hearers and readers spinning off course from what is safe and familiar towards some completely new kind of understanding. Parables are subversive; they never attempt to make faith simplistic. A parable does not primarily provide information about our world. Rather, if we allow it to do its work within us, it will change our world-breaking it - and us - open to wholly new possibilities. In the spirit of Jesus' parables, Peter offers some transformative stories of his own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rollins has already established himself as a major voice and an astute, generative force within the emergence Christianity. The Orthodox Heretic is his most accessible and engaging work to date." - Phyllis Tickle In this bold new book Peter Rollins presents a vision of faith that has little regard for the institutions of Christendom. His uncompromising critique of religion, while often unsettline, is infused with a deep and abiding love for what it means to genuinely follow Christ. Pete Rollins writes with clarity and compelling conviction." - Frank Schaeffer “I remember driving around Belfast with Pete, sitting in the front seat listening to him tell these parables that he'd written—thinking, ‘Everybody needs to hear these.’ And now you can.” —Rob Bell, author of Jesus Wants to Save Christians

Book Synopsis Hide, Wood, and Willow by : Deanna Tidwell Broughton
Download or read book Hide, Wood, and Willow written by Deanna Tidwell Broughton and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2019-06-13 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries indigenous communities of North America have used carriers to keep their babies safe. Among the Indians of the Great Plains, rigid cradles are both practical and symbolic, and many of these cradleboards—combining basketry and beadwork—represent some of the finest examples of North American Indian craftsmanship and decorative art. This lavishly illustrated volume is the first full-length reference book to describe baby carriers of the Lakota, Cheyenne, Arapaho, and many other Great Plains cultures. Author Deanna Tidwell Broughton, a member of the Oklahoma Cherokee Nation and a sculptor of miniature cradles, draws from a wealth of primary sources—including oral histories and interviews with Native artists—to explore the forms, functions, and symbolism of Great Plains cradleboards. As Broughton explains, the cradle was vital to a Native infant’s first months of life, providing warmth, security, and portability, as well as a platform for viewing and interacting with the outside world for the first time. Cradles and cradleboards were not only practical but also symbolic of infancy, and each tribe incorporated special colors, materials, and ornaments into their designs to imbue their baby carriers with sacred meaning. Hide, Wood, and Willow reveals the wide variety of cradles used by thirty-two Plains tribes, including communities often ignored or overlooked, such as the Wichita, Lipan Apache, Tonkawa, and Plains Métis. Each chapter offers information about the tribe’s background, preferred types of cradles, birth customs, and methods for distinguishing the sex of the baby through cradle ornamentation. Despite decades of political and social upheaval among Plains tribes, the significance of the cradle endures. Today, a baby can still be found wrapped up and wide-eyed, supported by a baby board. With its blend of stunning full-color images and detailed information, this book is a fitting tribute to an important and ongoing tradition among indigenous cultures.

Book Synopsis Witnessing Sadism in Texts of the American South by : Professor Claire Raymond
Download or read book Witnessing Sadism in Texts of the American South written by Professor Claire Raymond and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at works by Carrie Mae Weems, Toni Morrison, Emily Dickinson, Flannery O'Connor, Dorothy Allison, Carson McCullers and Zora Neale Hurston, Raymond uncovers a pattern of femininity constructed around representations of sadistic violence in American women's literature and photography. Raymond explores the idea that a femininity constructed by the positioning of the feminine character as witness to sadistic acts is a phenomenon distinctly of the American South that is linked to the culture's history of racism.

I stayed up well beyond when an exhausted parent of extremely energetic triplets should stay up to read this book. I used the few quiet seconds I get during the day to read this book. I declined a call from my mother to read this book. I kept my spouse up with the light from my kindle screen reading this book. It was all worth it.” - Verified Reviewer hr "You are unbroken." Princess Isabelle of the New Kingdom has lived her entire life in the confines of her palace. In her spare time, she hunts and feeds the poverty-stricken Voiceless—people of the Old Kingdom who warred with the New Kingdom and lost. Yet she remains unfulfilled; she dreams of a world beyond the walls of her home. As the only remaining child of the king and queen, she is to be married off by her eighteenth birthday—a prospect she’d rather not think about. "My father said that magic died long ago. It was evil, cursed, and wicked. My father is a liar." When Izzy witnesses the use of forbidden magic in the woods outside the palace, she is attacked and saved by Fray, a Voiceless servant from the castle. As the two become friends, they seek out the magic users who tried to kill her, determined to get to uncover the truth. Little does Isabelle know, the servant boy harbors a secret about his people that the king has tried to bury—a dark ability that the Voiceless can no longer evoke. Yet something more sinister is brewing, and to save her family, Izzy must reverse what was done to Fray and his people. She must give them their voices back, even if it unleashes a terrifying power. "I am fearless.” "Are you fearless?”
Book Synopsis Standing at the Scratch Line by : Guy Johnson
Download or read book Standing at the Scratch Line written by Guy Johnson and published by Villard. This book was released on 2001-06-12 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raised in the steamy bayous of New Orleans in the early 1900s, LeRoi "King" Tremain, caught up in his family's ongoing feud with the rival DuMont family, learns to fight. But when the teenage King mistakenly kills two white deputies during a botched raid on the DuMonts, the Tremains' fear of reprisal forces King to flee Louisiana. King thus embarks on an adventure that first takes him to France, where he fights in World War I as a member of the segregated 369th Battalion—in the bigoted army he finds himself locked in combat with American soldiers as well as with Germans. When he returns to America, he battles the Mob in Jazz Age Harlem, the KKK in Louisiana, and crooked politicians trying to destroy a black township in Oklahoma. King Tremain is driven by two principal forces: He wants to be treated with respect, and he wants to create a family dynasty much like the one he left behind in Louisiana. This is a stunning debut by novelist Guy Johnson that provides a true depiction of the lives of African-Americans in the early decades of the twentieth century.
