Book Synopsis Her Share of the Blessings by : Ross Shepard Kraemer
Download or read book Her Share of the Blessings written by Ross Shepard Kraemer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994-01-20 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pathbreaking volume, Ross Shepard Kraemer provides the first comprehensive look at women's religions in Greco-Roman antiquity. She vividly recreates the religious lives of early Christian, Jewish, and pagan women, with many fascinating examples: Greek women's devotion to goddesses, rites of Roman matrons, Jewish women in rabbinic and diaspora communities, Christian women's struggles to exercise authority and autonomy, and women's roles as leaders in the full spectrum of Greco-Roman religions. In every case, Kraemer reveals the connections between the social constraints under which women lived, and their religious beliefs and practices. The relationship among female autonomy, sexuality, and religion emerges as a persistent theme. Analyzing the monastic Jewish Therapeutae and various Christian communities, Kraemer demonstrates the paradoxical liberation which women achieved by rejection of sexuality, the body, and the female. In the epilogue, Kraemer pursues the disturbing implications such findings have for contemporary women. Based on an astonishing variety of primary sources, Her Share of the Blessings is an insightful work that goes beyond the limitations of previous scholarship to provide a more accurate portrait of women in the Greco-Roman world.

Book Synopsis Rock-Bottom Blessings by : Karen Beattie
Download or read book Rock-Bottom Blessings written by Karen Beattie and published by Loyola Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to live an abundant life? Some might say living abundantly means living comfortably, having the family you always dreamed of, receiving accolades from your peers, in short—living a life that is commonly accepted by many as blessed. But what if having an abundant life is more than the “good life”? Can we actually be blessed in the midst of serious disappointments and setbacks? In Rock-Bottom Blessings, Karen Beattie makes the case that true abundance is found in the transformation that happens when we experience God’s presence during periods of grief, loss, and disappointment. With the help of her friends and her newfound Catholic faith, she learns to trust that God’s plan is better than hers. Beattie began to see life’s challenges as gifts to be accepted like all other gifts: with reverence and gratitude. Beattie’s story makes abundantly clear: it is the suffering, death, and resurrection of Christ (the paschal mystery) that can inspire us not only to find blessings in every season of our lives, but to be utterly transformed by God’s riches.

Book excerpt: This special book of memories shares my reflections on the spiritual blessings and transformative lessons I experienced during my Bayear of service in the Holy Land in (Haifa/Bahji, Israel). The wonderful, sacrificial and rewarding experience of devoting a full year to serve wholeheartedly at the spiritual and administrative centre of the Bahá'í Faith helped me strengthen my connection to God. It also took my appreciation and love for the Faith to a whole new level - one I would never have thought was possible. My hope is that this book can serve as a way to encourage, motivate and inspire youth to undertake a period of service in any field, place, or time in their life; so that as a result they will place service at the centre of their lives, and accompany others to walk this path.
