Book Synopsis A Time to Break Silence by : Joseph F. Mali
Download or read book A Time to Break Silence written by Joseph F. Mali and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Time to Break Silence, Joseph F. Mali argues that given the complexity of Nigeria as a multiethnic society, and in view of the volatile situation in the country, especially the relentless bloodshed in the northern region, there is an urgent need to amend the current process for selecting Catholic bishops in Nigeria. Presently episcopal appointments are the prerogative of the hierarchy and a few influential players. Nigerian Catholics, Mali maintains, are the best judge of their worsening situation. They deserve a chance to choose church leaders who can effectively tackle their social, political, and religious problems. Hence Mali calls on the Catholic bishops, priests, and laity to expand their views beyond the present method of nominating bishops and pave the way for all the clergy and laity to play a role in the selection process. This, according to Mali, is for the common good of the suffering church of Nigeria. Drawing on the New and the Old Testament, Mali explains the biblical foundation of the election of leaders by the people. Citing the good old saying, vox populi, vox Die (“the voice of the people is the voice of God”), and referring to Saint Augustine of Hippo, a distinguished African bishop who became a priest and a bishop by the will of the people, Mali concludes that Nigerian Catholics are capable of choosing priests who would make good bishops.
Book Synopsis Martin Luther King Jr. and the Sermonic Power of Public Discourse by : Carolyn Calloway-Thomas
Download or read book Martin Luther King Jr. and the Sermonic Power of Public Discourse written by Carolyn Calloway-Thomas and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2005-07-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical studies of the range of King’s public discourse as forms of sermonic rhetoric The nine essays in this volume offer critical studies of the range of King’s public discourse as forms of sermonic rhetoric. They focus on five diverse and relative short examples from King’s body of work: “Death of Evil on the Seashore,” “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” “I Have a Dream,” “A Time to Break Silence,” and “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop.” Taken collectively, these five works span both the duration of King’s career as a public advocate but also represent the broad scope of his efforts to craft and project a persuasive vision a beloved community that persists through time.
Book Synopsis God and Human Dignity by : Rufus Burrow Jr.
Download or read book God and Human Dignity written by Rufus Burrow Jr. and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 1992-01-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although countless books have been devoted to the life and work of Martin Luther King, Jr., few, if any, have focused on King's appropriation of, and contribution to, the intellectual tradition of personalism. Emerging as a philosophical movement in the early 1900s, personalism is a type of philosophical idealism that has a number of affinities with Christianity, such as a focus on a personal God and the sanctity of persons. Burrow points to similarities and dissimilarities between personalism and the social gospel movement with its call to churchgoers to involve themselves in the welfare of both individuals and society. He argues that King's adoption of personalism represented the fusion of his black Christian faith and his commitment not only to the social gospel of Rauschenbusch, but most especially to the social gospelism practiced by his grandfather, father, and black preacher-scholars at Morehouse College. Burrow devotes much-needed attention both to King's conviction that the universe is value-infused and to the implications of this ideology for King's views on human dignity and his concept of the "Beloved Community." Burrow also sheds light on King’s doctrine of God. He contends that King's view of God has been uncritically and erroneously relegated by black liberation theologians to the general category of "theistic absolutism" and he offers corrections to what he believes are misinterpretations of this and other aspects of King’s thought. He concludes with an application of King’s personalism to present-day social problems, particularly as they pertain to violence in the black community. This book is a useful and fresh contribution to our understanding of the life and thought of Martin Luther King, Jr. It will be read with interest by ethicists, theologians, philosophers, and social historians.

Download or read book There Was a Time written by Roy Bonisteel and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 1992-05 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For seven generations the Bonisteel family lived on a farm in Ontario's Bay of Quinte region. In 1971, Roy Bonisteel, best-selling author, columnist and host of CBC's "Man Alive," decided to move his family from the city back to the countryside of his youth. As he did, the memories started to flow. With a warmth reminiscent of Russell Baker's Growing Up and the humour of James Herriot's rural escapades, Roy Bonisteel recalls a simpler time when the work was hard and the rewards were basic. Bonisteel's sparkling anecdotes often underscore values of thrift and conservation, homemade entertainment and community living that many people are today trying to rediscover. There was a time...can be seen as a meditation on "progress". The book takes the form of an almanac, a nostalgic journey through the twelve months of the year, and is drawn in part from a series of regular columns Bonisteel was commissioned to write for the Kingston Whig-Standard. Through it all shines a warmth for the past but no illusions about its limitations. It is a luminous, yearning book--a reverberant echo of a life-style that has nearly disappeared.
Book Synopsis A Paradigm for a Peace Movement by : Jude Lal Fernando

Book excerpt: "Both the nationalist and liberal paradigms employed respectively by the Simhala Buddhist Sangha and the Christian churches have failed to solve the ethnic as well as Buddhist-Christian tensions, in Sri Lanka. This reflects on the moral failure of Asian Buddhism and Western Christianity. This book explores how the two religious traditions could contribute to an alternative paradigm for peace among diverse groups by transcending the liberal and nationalist models. This alternative paradigm is informed by the peace movement in Vietnam, led by Thich Nhat Hanh, and Civil Rights and peace movement in America, led by Martin Luther King Jr."--BOOK JACKET.
