Book Synopsis A Reader's Companion to Augustine's Confessions by : Kim Paffenroth
Download or read book A Reader's Companion to Augustine's Confessions written by Kim Paffenroth and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a tool for teaching and studying the great Christian classic, Augustine's Confessions. It is a unique venture in which thirteen different scholars look at each of the thirteen books in the Confessions and interpret their chapters in light of that book and in light of the rest of Augustine's work. The result is that the richness and ambiguity of Augustine's work shines through as well as the richness and ambiguity of different readings of the Confessions.
Book Synopsis Prodigal Confessions by : Britta Lafont
Download or read book Prodigal Confessions written by Britta Lafont and published by Britta LaFont. This book was released on 2015-03-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Parable of the Prodigal Son is a gospel story: in it we see the fall, repentance, redemption, and reconciliation. Many of us have heard this parable our whole lives. Often the Prodigal Story is portrayed as one that pictures the process of Christian salvation...and this is true. It is also true that believers, though adopted into God's family, are prone to wander back to the Pigsty, time and time again. We can find ourselves, much like the sons in the story, squandering relationship with Our Heavenly Father and feeling the pain of separation from Him. The path back to the Father via repentance is a short one, and should be taken on a regular basis. This book explores why Christians, given so much hope, love, and grace, continue to struggle with sin. Like the Gospel Story, each Prodigal's story is filled with hope and grace. God is purposeful. Our struggles are part of the process of leaving behind the old ways and learning to live new lives; it is a process that we cannot fast forward through...this is our refining, our sanctification. God uses our stories for the display of His glory: to demonstrate His power over sin, His wisdom in ordaining our life events, and His unfailing goodness toward us. The Parable of the Prodigal Son is meant to display the Father's character. Our lives are meant to reflect the same truths. Prodigal means extravagant. In our struggles, we can be extravagantly wasteful of God's gift to us of relationship with Him. But the hope of the Christian life is that He doesn't let us stay there. His compassion is active. He meets us on our way back to Him. As we learned more and more to walk in obedience, we are able to share His extravagant generosity with others.

Book Synopsis Prodigal Son/Elder Brother by : Jill Robbins
Download or read book Prodigal Son/Elder Brother written by Jill Robbins and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991-07-30 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I don't know of any other book that deals with the hermeneutical problem of the relationship between Christianity and Judaism in the way this one does. Full of cunning and unpredictable turns, Prodigal Son/Elder Brother addresses the question of the elder brother's fate by opposing two sets of readings, Christian and Jewish, ancient and modern, figural and midrashic. No one, after reading this book, will any longer connect Judaism and Christianity with a hyphen."—Gerald L. Burns, University of Notre Dame "Through a creative reading of the prodigal son parable, Jill Robbins demonstrates the hermeneutical impasse of the Christian exegete who must and yet cannot incorporate the Old Testament. Having disclosed the aporia at the heart of Christian hermeneutics, she proposes an alternative approach to the Hebrew Bible and new interpretations of Augustine, Petrarch, Kafka, and Levinas. Robbins brilliantly integrates the discourses of biblical texts, literary works, and critical analysis."—Mark C. Taylor, Williams College

Download or read book Augustine written by Joanne McWilliam and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 1992-04 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Augustine: From Rhetor to Theologian arose from a conference held at Trinity College, Toronto, to celebrate the 1600th anniversary of the conversion to Catholic Christianity of Augustine of Hippo. Fifteen papers from international scholars make up this book. Augustine set his stamp on the Latin Church, yet only in the twentieth century, with its profound, even paradigmatic change did the descendants of that church -- Anglican, Reformed, and Roman Catholic -- recognize the degree to which their inbred attitudes and theological positions were "Augustinian." It is, however, another measure of the importance of Augustine that many aspects of his life and meanings of his writings are still disputed. This continuing investigation and debate is evidenced in this volume.
Book Synopsis The Biggest Lie in the History of Christianity by : Matthew Kelly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you believe it's possible to be happier than you have ever been before? Not for fleeting moments, but consistently? Bestselling author Matthew Kelly believes it is possible-and in his latest book, The Biggest Lie, he explains how. We all want to be happy and live life to the fullest, but the answer isn't found in the world's definition of happiness. Modern culture is constantly feeding us lies, and these lies affect you more than you know. The lies that affect you the most, however, are the ones you tell yourself. These lies steal your joy, sap your energy, and cause you to lose hope. They prevent you from discovering the kind of vibrant faith the first Christians experienced. But as Matthew Kelly shows, we've arrived at a crucial moment in history. People are disillusioned with what the world offers. The world is in desperate need of change, and no one is in a better position to effect that change than Christians. We have an incredible opportunity to dispel the lies and cut through the confusion and false promises around us. This book provides the practical tools necessary to help you regain your fervor and leave your mark on the world-and experience more happiness than you thought possible. Together we can change the course of history-with humility, generosity, kindness, and joy, one Holy Moment at a time.

Book Synopsis The Prodigal Son in English and American Literature by : Alison M. Jack
Download or read book The Prodigal Son in English and American Literature written by Alison M. Jack and published by Biblical Refigurations. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Parable of the Prodigal Son is one of the best-known stories in the Bible. It has captured the imagination of commentators, preachers and writers. Alison M. Jack explores the reconfiguring of the character of the Prodigal Son and his family in literature in English. She considers diverse literary periods and genres in which the paradigm is particularly prevalent, such as Elizabethan literature, the work of Shakespeare, the novels of female Victorian writers, the American short story tradition, novels focused on the lives of ordained ministers, and the poetry of Elizabeth Bishop and Iain Crichton Smith. Drawing on scholarship from biblical and literary studies, this study demonstrates the remarkable potency of the parable in generating new, and at times contradictory, meanings in different contexts. Historical and literary criticism are brought into dialogue to explore this remarkably resilient and nimble character as he dances through drama, novels and poetry across the centuries.
