Don’t get lost in the anxiety of preparing for a day. Joyfully anticipate the coming of the person of Jesus through an encounter with his Most Blessed Mother. Imagine having an Advent that is more peaceful, more joyful, and more meaningful than ever before. The Rejoice! Advent Meditations with Mary Journal not only lets you walk beside Mary during the first Advent, but also lets you get to know her in a way you haven’t before.

Toups provides you with aids to help guide your prayer: A word - Focus on a single word each day to draw out the details, the specifics of who Our Lady is. A reflection - Learn more about Mary, the culture in which she was raised, and the world in which she lived. A Psalm - Each day, you’re given a Psalm to pray (just as Mary herself would have prayed) to help you enter into prayer. A reading - In reading Scripture, you find the Word of God, bringing you closer to Mary, who carried the Word in her body. A prompt - Space is provided each day to journal. Record how the Lord is speaking to you

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During Lent, we strive to free ourselves from all kinds of clutter—material and spiritual—in order to focus on God and turn back to him with our whole hearts. If this “turning back” is genuine, it will be a reorientation, a transformation. To help us enter into this season, Amy Ekeh guides readers in exploring three key moments in the life and ministry of Jesus. The result will be a better understanding of the authentic transformation that God calls each of us to embrace as individuals and as a community and a renewed desire to live God’s own outward-looking, self-emptying, laying-down-one’s-life kind of love.

Book Synopsis Advent and Christmas by : Katie Prejean McGrady
Download or read book Advent and Christmas written by Katie Prejean McGrady and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2020-08-21 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the success of their bestselling devotional Lent: One Day at a Time for Catholic Teens, youth ministry experts Katie Prejean McGrady and Tommy McGrady offer devotions for Advent and Christmas that help teens make sense of the things that matter most in their lives such as relationships, their future, and coping with stress. Realistic and easy to use, each daily devotion starts with a brief Bible quote that connects with a topic important to teens such as insecurity, pressure, trust, fitting in, finding hope, and choosing joy. A brief reflection helps teens consider the day’s topic through their faith. The McGradys sometimes offer comfort, hope, or reasons for joy in these reflections, while on other days they issue a challenge or two. Unlike many other seasonal prayer books, each day offers exercises and activities such as naming areas of teen’s lives where they want to be more hopeful or to trust God more. The result is a closer relationship with God. Each single-page, weekday devotion can be as brief as five minutes or as long as thirty if a teen chooses to do a bit extra with a feature called “Feel Ambitious?” This activity invites them to read, reflect, and respond to a longer scripture passage that connects to the day’s theme. Saturdays and Sundays offer additional challenges to reflect on the previous week and to look ahead to the next.
Book Synopsis From Advent to Ascension by : Charles Ensminger
Download or read book From Advent to Ascension written by Charles Ensminger and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Advent to Ascension: A Journey with the Christ follows the themes and direction of the Christian year that focus specifically on the earthly life of Christ. Beginning with the expectations of Advent, you’re invited to walk with Jesus from his birth to his Ascension. This journey encourages you to consider what it means to take the name of “Christian.” As such, this book invites you to carefully consider the elements of Jesus’s life and teachings. Consider questions such as: • What does it truly mean to follow Jesus? • What does Christianity claim arrived in the person of Jesus? • What is God’s dream for the future of humanity? • What is it we should expect from the Christ? Christianity is a faith with a story. That narrative is told and retold year after year until it can be lost in the mix of seasons and programs. From Advent to Ascension can be a tool by which your church can encounter anew the story of the Christian faith. Ignite your faith and join the author on a devotional study of Jesus beginning with the Advent season and continuing through his ascension. It is a journey that will move you closer to the Lord.

Book Synopsis Advent in Plain Sight by : Jill J. Duffield
Download or read book Advent in Plain Sight written by Jill J. Duffield and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At Christmas, God came into our ordinary world in the form of a child, and still today, God is at work through the ordinary stuff of life, if we train our eyes to see. In this daily devotional for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany, Jill J. Duffield draws readers' attention to ten ordinary objects that appear in the biblical narratives of messianic prophesy and incarnation—objects we encounter in our own lives. Through objects such as gates, trees, cloth, light, and water, readers will find new meaning in the biblical account of Jesus’ coming. By connecting everyday objects with biblical texts, Advent in Plain Sight prompts readers to see the near kingdom of heaven on earth and ponder what that divine proximity enables and asks them to do and be. Each daily devotional features a Scripture reading, prayer, and reflection, reminding Christians that God still dwells among us, even in the most ordinary places.

Download or read book Throughout written by Ulrik Ekman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading media scholars consider the social and cultural changes that come with the contemporary development of ubiquitous computing. Ubiquitous computing and our cultural life promise to become completely interwoven: technical currents feed into our screen culture of digital television, video, home computers, movies, and high-resolution advertising displays. Technology has become at once larger and smaller, mobile and ambient. In Throughout, leading writers on new media--including Jay David Bolter, Mark Hansen, N. Katherine Hayles, and Lev Manovich--take on the crucial challenges that ubiquitous and pervasive computing pose for cultural theory and criticism. The thirty-four contributing researchers consider the visual sense and sensations of living with a ubicomp culture; electronic sounds from the uncanny to the unremarkable; the effects of ubicomp on communication, including mobility, transmateriality, and infinite availability; general trends and concrete specificities of interaction designs; the affectivity in ubicomp experiences, including performances; context awareness; and claims on the "real" in the use of such terms as "augmented reality" and "mixed reality."

Download or read book Incarnation written by Skya Abbate and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world--it is a place of mystery; religion a matter of faith. Yet all around us in the matrix of creation, animals, people, and personal experience the immanence of the Creator is present. More than that so is the Spirit who shapes the world, and Jesus the Incarnate, the Word of God and Redeemer of shattered relationships between God and all creation. We do not always have the clarity of experiencing God in the beauty or disorder of life, yet God is there, waiting to be praised, encountered, thanked, and experienced. Every moment is an opportunity to grasp that presence. Simple words of no great import in the world of literature can sometimes capture that experience in a phrase or an image. While that perception is individual we share common experiences and an imagination to envision rapture or difficulty. While my poems may not be memorable, like a key, they can open the realm of possible relationship that is available to everyone as God's invitation to his friendship, a relationship we can call grace as Incarnation.
