Book Synopsis I Am Because You Are by : Jacob Lief
Download or read book I Am Because You Are written by Jacob Lief and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, Jacob Lief, a 21-year-old American university student, met school teacher Malizole "Banks" Gwaxula in a township tavern in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. After bonding over beers and a shared passion for education, Gwaxula invited Lief to live with him in the township. Inspired by their fortuitous meeting--which brought together two men separated by race, nationality, and age--and by the spirit of ubuntu, roughly translated as "I am because you are", the two men embarked on an unexpectedly profound journey. Their vision? To provide vulnerable children in the townships with what every child deserves-everything. Today, their organization, Ubuntu Education Fund, is upending conventional wisdom about how to break the cycle of poverty. Shunning traditional development models, Ubuntu has redefined the concept of scale, focusing on how deeply it can impact each child's life rather than how many it can reach. Ubuntu provides everything a child needs and deserves, from prenatal care for pregnant mothers to support through university-essentially, from cradle to career. Their child-centered approach reminds us that one's birthplace should not determine one's future. I Am Because You Are sets forth an unflinching portrayal of the unique rewards and challenges of the nonprofit world while offering a bold vision for a new model of development.

Download or read book I Am Because We Are written by Chidiogo Akunyili-Parr and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative and intimate memoir, a daughter tells the story of her mother, a pan-African hero who faced down misogyny and battled corruption in Nigeria. Inspired by the African philosophy of Ubuntu — the importance of community over the individual — and outraged by injustice, Dora Akunyili took on fraudulent drug manufacturers whose products killed millions, including her sister. A woman in a man’s world, she was elected and became a cabinet minister, but she had to deal with political manoeuvrings, death threats, and an assassination attempt for defending the voiceless. She suffered for it, as did her marriage and six children. I Am Because We Are illuminates the role of kinship, family, and the individual’s place in society, while revealing a life of courage, how community shaped it, and the web of humanity that binds us all.
Book Synopsis I Am Because We Are by : Betty Press
Download or read book I Am Because We Are written by Betty Press and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Am Because We Are features 125 black-and-white photographs by Betty Press taken all over East and West Africa since 1987, combined with related African proverbs compiled by Annetta Miller, an American born in Tanzania. The book highlights the importance of proverbs in educating members of African societies on how to think, how to behave, and how to have a better life. Press took these photographs with the goal of making a significant educational and artistic contribution to the appreciation and understanding of African culture and society as well as our own. The photographs of daily life deal with knowledge, cooperation, love, beauty, friendship, hope, humor, sorrow, happiness, gratitude, dance, tradition, faith, peace, war, death, and human relationships. These are the same themes found in African proverbial language. Thus came the natural idea of coupling images with proverbs. Together they offer a powerful expression of African life and the universality of human emotions, ideas, and knowledge.

Book Synopsis I Am Because of You by : David Steindl-Rast
Download or read book I Am Because of You written by David Steindl-Rast and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hermit, Zen Christian, spiritual globetrotter, "Brother David" tells his incomparably rich life story spanning the nine decades of his life. Beginning with his childhood in Vienna, he describes his time in World War II and his years as a student after the war, his family's immigration to the United States, and his entry into the then newly founded Benedictine monastery in the state of New York. There he soon began looking for what were then still untrodden spiritual paths with undiscovered entry ways to non-Christian religions. He became particularly involved in the dialogue between Christianity and Buddhism, founding the Center for Spiritual Studies in 1968, together with Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, and Muslims. His work encouraging dialogue between religions earned him the 1975 Martin Buber Award for his achievements in building bridges between religious traditions. Contemplation and periods of public life alternate with Brother David: be spends half the year living as a recluse in the hermitage near his Benedictine monastery. Mysticism is his mission-but not a mysticism devoid of connection to the world. His is a mysticism of the everyday, of life immediate in the now, of experiencing fully. He is convinced that God's spirit speaks in and to us all. Book jacket.
Book Synopsis I Am Because He Is by : Sharan Coleman
Download or read book I Am Because He Is written by Sharan Coleman and published by Sharan Coleman. This book was released on 2021-11-11 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is my purpose? Why am I here? What is my destiny? How do I know? Everyone I know has contemplated these questions at one time or another. This book is about the journey into the revelation of who we are as believers. It's about the realization that we, as believers in Jesus Christ, are God's vessels of honor--placed here in earth for the sole purpose of accomplishing His "Course of Destiny," for our lives. Regardless of our definition of success, it doesn't happen until we accomplish our purpose for being here. And the only way to accomplish that is to connect with our Creator. The One who created us for a specific purpose, and the One who shared that purpose with us before we entered our mothers womb. Once we are on track with our "Course of Destiny," the floodgates open up. The resources, whatever they may be, flood in because we are not working for ourselves, we are not striving for our own personal material gain (wealth, power, influence, happiness) but because we are working for our Creator, serving His purpose for our lives. And just like when Solomon asked for wisdom to judge the people, God not only gave him the wisdom he asked for, but riches, power and influence as well. It's the same with the Believer. When we are walking in our "Course of Destiny," accomplishing His purpose, instead of our own, God will bless us with the desires of our heart and fulfill every one of those desires, exceedingly, abundantly above all we could ever ask or think; according to the power that works in us.

Download or read book I Am written by Michele Cushatt and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Am helps women end the barrage of negative self-talk and replace it with an empowering new narrative. You'll exchange lies for truth, insecurity for a rock-solid identity, and break free from the distorted messages that have held you hostage for too long. From the moment a woman wakes until she falls, exhausted, on her pillow, one question plagues her at every turn: Am I enough? The pressure to do more, be more has never been more intense. Online marketing. Self-help books. Movies, magazines, and gym memberships. Even church attendance and social media streams have become a means of comparing ourselves to impossible standards. Am I pretty enough? Hip enough? Spiritual enough? We fear the answer is "No." When a brutal bout with cancer changed how she looked, talked, and lived, Michele Cushatt embarked on a soul-deep journey to rediscover herself. The typical self-esteem strategies and positivity plans weren't enough. Instead, she needed a new foundation, one that wouldn't prove flimsy when faced with the onslaught of day-to-day life. With raw personal stories, profound biblical teaching, and radical truths on which to rebuild your life, I Am will help you: Refuse to ride the rollercoaster of others' opinions and start believing what God says about you. Stop agonizing over past regrets and failures and make peace with God's sovereign plan for your life. Leave insecurity behind as you exchange temporary fixes for an identity established on God's unchanging affection. I Am reminds us that our value isn't found in our talents, achievements, relationships, or appearance. It is instead found in a God who chose us, sent us, and promised to be with us--forever.
