Book Synopsis Letters from a Friend by : Roy Harvey
Download or read book Letters from a Friend written by Roy Harvey and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2008-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statements like 'The church is full of hypocrites ' and 'Sin is fun ' often block the path to true contentment and peace in God. Roy tackles some of the tough rationalizations that people have for abandoning the Christian faith that they were taught. In an equally honest treatment, he also calls the church to task for its failure to nurture and train disciples. The Letters segment of this book is a collection of letters that Roy wrote to actual college-age young adults, answering their questions and defying common excuses for not accepting Christianity. The Meat and Potatoes section is a thorough, practical method for developing and maintaining the daily disciplines of the Christian faith. Mr. Harvey demystifies the concepts of prayer life and Bible study, and gives wisdom and direction on how to be plugged into a church. Whether you are plagued by doubts, questions, and excuses or just don't seem to be growing in your faith, let Letters from a Friend inspire you to get off the sidelines, get back in the game, and renew your passion to walk out your faith one day at a time.

Download or read book Magnifico written by Miles J. Unger and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-05-06 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vividly colorful portrait of one of the greatest and most fascinating figures of the Renaissance, Lorenzo de' Medici, focusing on his role as a brilliant—sometimes ruthless—statesman who was responsible for the artistic flowering of Florence, the city where the Renaissance first blossomed. Lorenzo de' Medici—a leading statesman, the uncrowned ruler of Florence during its golden age, a true Renaissance man known to history as Il Magnifico (the Magnificent). Lorenzo was not only the foremost patron of his day but also a renowned poet, equally adept at composing philosophical verses and obscene rhymes to be sung at Carnival. He befriended the greatest artists and writers of the time—Leonardo, Botticelli, Poliziano, and, especially, Michelangelo, whom he discovered as a young boy and invited to live at his palace—and, in the process, turned Florence into the cultural capital of Europe. Though Lorenzo's grandfather Cosimo had converted the vast wealth of the family bank into political power, Lorenzo's position was precarious. Bitter rivalries among the leading Florentine families and competition among the squabbling Italian states meant that Lorenzo's life was under constant threat. Those who plotted his death included a pope, a king, and a duke, but Lorenzo used his legendary charm and diplomatic skill—as well as occasional acts of violence—to navigate the murderous labyrinth of Italian politics. Florence in the age of Lorenzo was a city of contrasts, of unparalleled artistic brilliance and unimaginable squalor in the city's crowded tenements; of both pagan excess and the fire-and-brimstone sermons of the Dominican preacher Savonarola. Florence gave birth to both the otherworldly perfection of Botticelli's Primavera and the gritty realism of Machiavelli's The Prince. Nowhere was this world of contrasts more perfectly embodied than in the life and character of the man who ruled this most fascinating city.
Book Synopsis Reclaiming Catherine of Siena by : Jane Tylus
Download or read book Reclaiming Catherine of Siena written by Jane Tylus and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catherine of Siena (1347–1380) wrote almost four hundred epistles in her lifetime, effectively insinuating herself into the literary, political, and theological debates of her day. At the same time, as the daughter of a Sienese dyer, Catherine had no formal education, and her accomplishments were considered miracles rather than the work of her own hand. As a result, she has been largely excluded from accounts of the development of European humanism and the language and literature of Italy. Reclaiming Catherine ofSiena makes the case for considering Catherine alongside literary giants such as Dante and Petrarch, as it underscores Catherine's commitment to using the vernacular to manifest Christ's message—and her own. Jane Tylus charts here the contested struggles of scholars over the centuries to situate Catherine in the history of Italian culture in early modernity. But she mainly focuses on Catherine’s works, calling attention to the interplay between orality and textuality in the letters and demonstrating why it was so important for Catherine to envision herself as a writer. Tylus argues for a reevalution of Catherine as not just a medieval saint, but one of the major figures at the birth of the Italian literary canon.

Book Synopsis Political Realism in Apocalyptic Times by : Alison McQueen
Download or read book Political Realism in Apocalyptic Times written by Alison McQueen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From climate change to nuclear war to the rise of demagogic populists, our world is shaped by doomsday expectations. In this path-breaking book, Alison McQueen shows why three of history's greatest political realists feared apocalyptic politics. Niccol- Machiavelli in the midst of Italy's vicious power struggles, Thomas Hobbes during England's bloody civil war, and Hans Morgenthau at the dawn of the thermonuclear age all saw the temptation to prophesy the end of days. Each engaged in subtle and surprising strategies to oppose apocalypticism, from using its own rhetoric to neutralize its worst effects to insisting on a clear-eyed, tragic acceptance of the human condition. Scholarly yet accessible, this book is at once an ambitious contribution to the history of political thought and a work that speaks to our times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will inspire you as you take a journey with Nancy through her many divine appointments with God. The Holy Spirit teaches her (over a period of fifty-three years) to cooperate with and to follow His leadings. As Nancy is being natural, submitting herself to the Holy Spirit, God performs the supernatural when she listens to Him, releases all to Him, and cooperates with His directions and instructions. The Lord told her in 1977 that divine appointments were for the power and creativity of God working in and through the spirit-baptized life for His purposes. On Nancy’s journey, you will hear about many miracles manifested in and through her life for the benefit of others.

Book Synopsis Voice of Nonconformity by : Keith A Ives
Download or read book Voice of Nonconformity written by Keith A Ives and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of William Robertson Nicoll, a non-conformist individual who had considerable influence in the late 19th Century. Originally a minister, he was considered a great leader and was also a theological conservative, and therefore committed to maintaining the orthodox stance of the Christian Churches, but at the same time, he encouraged many of the new ideas, which he felt would prove a useful and hopeful benefit for the Church. Due to health issues he was later forced to retire his position and focused on work as an editor and journalist, bringing with him the same sense of leadership he had previously been known for. The debate over his legacy continues and is addressed within this study using previously unstudied information on Nicoll's life.

The bittersweet reunion of the Robichaud family and the Harrows in the land of the Acadians has brought two mothers and two daughters full circle. They rekindle those early bonds and experience restoration of those lost years, but time and tragedy have left their indelible imprints on all who have endured the decades of separation and uncertainty. Moving forward with their lives now means further farewells--not as devastating as the one long ago, but no less heart wrenching. Their connection, which goes beyond that of "sisters" to best friends, will be tested by the coming Revolution and the lure of England--parted again, the reunited, but for how long...? Can their friendship sustain the startling revelation concerning...The Birthright?
