Book Synopsis Divine Hunger by : Peter Christopher Emberley
Download or read book Divine Hunger written by Peter Christopher Emberley and published by HarperCollins Canada. This book was released on 2002 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout Canada, they are searching: engaging in complex but deeply relaxing contortions at Salt Spring Island's ashtanga yoga center; feeling "the blast of divine light of the Resurrection" at St. Herman's of Alaska, a non-ethnic Orthodox church in Edmonton; taking the healing waters at Alberta's Lac Ste. Anne pilgrimage; grasping for the Good News at a Billy Graham gathering in Ottawa. These are the Canadians at the cutting edge of today's spiritual quests, says Peter Emberley, men and women seeking to satisfy today's raw hunger for spiritual wholeness, for what is real, for what is. Divine Hunger is a first-ever portrait of the spiritual searches of Canada's babyboomers. It offers a fascinating commentary on our modern state of religious consciousness, looking at the dichotomy between our belief that we are free and self-determining beings, yet willing to submit to religions and movements that require subjugation and a large leap of faith.

They are written to also challenge your relationship with God. It is authentic, genuine and sincere? Are you truly abiding in His presence? Are you yielding and submitting to the Lord with all your might and strength? The question is simple: How hungry are you for God? How hungry are you to follow Him, to serve, to obey, to yield, to submit and to adhere to His perfect will? Are you really hungry? Are we just hungry for what God can do for us, or are we hungry for Him above all else? Are we just hungry for the work of His hands, or do we truly seek to have a real and meaningful relationship with God? Are we hungry to be faithful, loyal and dedicated to His Kingdom? Yes, do you love Him as you should? Do you serve Him as you should? Do you uphold His Word as you should? Take this journey, devote yourself to God and draw closer to Him. Seek Him, and He shall be found.

Book Synopsis Cures for Hunger by : Deni Ellis Béchard
Download or read book Cures for Hunger written by Deni Ellis Béchard and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “poignant but rigorously unsentimental” memoir of one man’s search for the truth about his father’s dark past, and how it shaped his own life (Kirkus Reviews). Growing up in rural British Columbia, Deni Béchard had no idea his family was extraordinary. He took pleasure in typical boyish activities: salmon fishing with his father, a daring man with a penchant for brawling, and reading with his mother, who was interested in health food and the otherworldly. Assigned to complete a family tree in school, Deni begins to wonder why he doesn’t know more about his father’s side of the family. His mother is from Pittsburgh, and there’s a vague sense that his father is from Quebec, but why the mystery? When his mother leaves Deni’s father and decamps with her children to Virginia, his curiosity only grows. Who is this man, why do the police seem so interested in him, and why is his mother so afraid of him? And when his mother begrudgingly tells Deni that his father was once a bank robber, his imagination is set on fire. Boyish rebelliousness soon gives way to fantasies of a life of crime, and a deep drive for experience leads him to a number of adventures: hitching to Memphis and stealing a motorcycle; fighting classmates and kissing girls. Before long, young Deni is imagining himself as a character in one of his father’s stories, or in the novels he devours. Both attracted and repelled, Deni can’t escape the sense that his father’s life holds the key to understanding himself. Eventually he moves back to Canada, only to find himself snared in the controlling impulses of his mysterious father, and increasingly obsessed by his father’s own muted recollections of the Quebecois childhood he’d fled long ago. “Powerful and haunting . . . a must-read for anyone who has ever struggled to uncover their identity within the shadow of a parent.” —Claire Bidwell Smith, author of The Rules of Inheritance “Cures for Hunger is a poignant adventure story with a mystery . . . But it is also, perhaps even more so, the story of an artist coming of age.” —The Plain Dealer “This darkly comic and lyrical memoir demonstrates the shaping of its author, who suffers the wreckage of his father’s life, yet manages to salvage all the beauty of its desperate freedoms. Béchard’s poetic gifts give voice to the outsiders of society, and make them glow with humanity and love.” —Elizabeth McKenzie, author of The Portable Veblen
Book Synopsis Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger by : Ronald J. Sider
Download or read book Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger written by Ronald J. Sider and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to make a true difference in the world? Dr. Ron Sider does. He has, since before he first published Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger in 1978. Despite a dramatic reduction in world hunger since then, 34,000 children still die daily of starvation and preventable disease, and 1.3 billion people, worldwide, remain in abject poverty. So, the professor of theology went back to re-examine the issues by twenty-first century standards. Finding that Conservatives blame morally reprehensible individual choices, and Liberals blame constrictive social and economic policy, Dr. Sider finds himself agreeing with both sides. In this new look at an age-old problem, he offers not only a detailed explanation of the causes, but also a comprehensive series of practical solutions, in the hopes that Christians like him will choose to make a difference.

Book Synopsis A Hunger for the Holy by : Calvin Miller
Download or read book A Hunger for the Holy written by Calvin Miller and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the imagery of the psalms as a backdrop, author Calvin Miller explores our hunger for intimacy with our Holy God. Insisting that the pathway to God's holiness is through a journey into our own selves, Miller yet maintains that our end is not to know ourselves but to know Christ. Our hunger for the Holy leads us to a table for two in a quiet wilderness. Here, Miller says, we meet as "ardent lovers in the lonely desert of the human heart. There, he speaks as much as we do, and even when both of us say nothing, we are rapt in a welded oneness." In Miller's inimitable style, he graciously invites us to satisfy our hunger for the holiness of God as we meditate on the psalms and are challenged to know the God of the universe in a personal, intimate relationship.

Download or read book The Hunger Inside written by Bradley Roth and published by Paraclete Press. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The meal that Jesus of Nazareth gave his followers, celebrated with grand liturgy and golden chalice, or words pared lean and tiny plastic cups, is the distinctive rite of the church. The Eucharist is regarded as the source and summit of Christian faith—or maybe just a symbol—but what all Christians know is that Holy Communion does something. It’s what and how the supper does what it does that divides us. In The Hunger Inside, Brad Roth explores the myriad ways the Lord’s Supper transforms lives. As on that ancient gospel hill where more than 5,000 hungry people were fed, the abundance of Jesus’ table touches uncountable human stories. Drawing generously on eclectic theological traditions, Roth takes a narrative-driven approach to plumb the rich depths of symbolism, power, and presence communicated in the communion meal. This book is a call for all followers of Jesus to encounter again the One who meets our deepest hungers at his table.
