Book Synopsis Katie Luther, First Lady of the Reformation by : Ruth A. Tucker
Download or read book Katie Luther, First Lady of the Reformation written by Ruth A. Tucker and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katharina von Bora. Defiant and determined, refusing to be intimidated. . . In many ways, it was this astonishing woman (not even her husband, Martin Luther, could stop her) who set the tone of the Reformation movement. In this compelling historical account of a woman who was an indispensable figure of the German Reformation—who was by turns vilified, satirized, idolized, and fictionalized by contemporaries and commentators—you can make her acquaintance and discover how Katharina's voice and personality still echoes among modern women, wives, and mothers who have struggled to be heard while carving out a career of their own. Author and teacher Ruth Tucker beckons you to visit Katie Luther in her sixteenth-century village life: What was it like to be married to the man behind the religious upheaval? How did she deal with the celebrations and heartaches, housing, diet, fashion, childbirth, and child-rearing of daily life in Wittenberg? What role did she play in pushing gender boundaries and shaping the young egalitarianism of the movement? Though very little is known today about Katharina. Though her primary vocation was not even related to ministry, she was by any measure the First Lady of the Reformation, and she still has much to say to Western women and men of today.

Book excerpt: For hundreds of years Christendom has been blessed with Bible commentaries written by great men of God who were highly respected for their godly work and their insight into spiritual truth.

Book Synopsis The Logic of the Spirit in Human Thought and Experience by : Keith J White
Download or read book The Logic of the Spirit in Human Thought and Experience written by Keith J White and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March 2012 a small consultation convened on the campus of Princeton Theological Seminary, where James E. Loder Jr. had served for forty years as the Mary D. Synnott Professor of the Philosophy of Christian Education. Members from the Child Theology Movement had begun to read Loder's work and they wanted to go further. So they invited former students of Loder's to meet with them for conversations about things that really mattered to them and to Loder: human beings (and especially children), the church's witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ, and discerning the work of Spiritus Creator in the postmodern world. The conversations proved rich and rewarding and some would even say they took on a life of their own - serious scholarship set to the music of the Spirit's communion-creating artistry forming new relationships, inspiring new ideas, and sustaining all of it amid much laughter, joy, and hope. These essays, taken from the papers delivered at the consultation, are offered as a means of extending that conversation inspired by Loder's interdisciplinary practical theological science and his discernment of the
Book Synopsis Our Church Mothers by : Gwen Ehrenborg
Download or read book Our Church Mothers written by Gwen Ehrenborg and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Our Church Mothers"contains seven, first-person letters from formidable historical women, who crafted for themselves roles of strategic importance in the history of Christianity. You will become personally familiar with Katharina Luther, first lady of the Reformation; Susanna Wesley, the Mother of Methodism; Catherine Booth, co-founder of the Salvation Army; Mary, the Mother of Jesus; St. Clare, best friend of Francis of Assisi; Mother Teresa of Calcutta; and Judge Deborah, as a forerunner. You will be moved as you read these heroines' letters written to encourage today's believers as they share their thoughts, feelings and daring experiences as they were led by the Spirit of God. Learn how these female leaders and their partners in ministry, overcame tremendous challenges to bear fruit for the Kingdom of God. Living in different countries, centuries and cultures, they certainly share admirable characteristics in sacrificially choosing to address ignored human needs they observe with exceptional faith and action. A common theme among these women is that not only their own children, but their constituents as well, recognized them as exceptional "Mother" figures and as spiritual leaders anointed by God. Each of these women were addressed as "Mother," even though three of them never had children by birth. The five mothers, who were also wives, ably supported their husbands as helpmates while pursuing their own spiritual calling. None of these women allowed negative social pressures to prevent them from achieving their ministry goals. All seven women have name recognition today, yet people are surprised to learn that Mother Teresa was actually an Irish nun born in Albania who became a citizen of India. Did you know the monk, Martin Luther, at age 41 took a wife who was a 26 year old former nun who bore him 6 children; or the Salvation Army founders, William and Catherine Booth's love story rivals that of the Barrett Brownings, and that Judge Deborah was the Joan of Arc of her day? The writing style in each letter indicates a desire for a personal friendship between the author and their modern-day reader as fellow believers. When these ladies share the fruitful work of God in their lives, they clearly hope to encourage others to believe they, too, can positively make a real change in their world for the benefit of others and the glory of God. Let these heroic "Mothers" of the Faith inspire and challenge you to fulfill your destiny and unique service to Christ.
Book Synopsis Glimpses of the New Creation by : W. David O. Taylor
Download or read book Glimpses of the New Creation written by W. David O. Taylor and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do the arts in worship form individuals and communities? Every choice of art in worship opens up and closes down possibilities for the formation of our humanity. Every practice of music, every decision about language, every use of our bodies, every approach to visual media or church buildings forms our desires, shapes our imaginations, habituates our emotional instincts, and reconfigures our identity as Christians in contextually meaningful ways, generating thereby a sense of the triune God and of our place in the world. Glimpses of the New Creation argues that the arts form us in worship by bringing us into intentional and intensive participation in the aesthetic aspect of our humanity—that is, our physical, emotional, imaginative, and metaphorical capacities. In so doing they invite the people of God to be conformed to Christ and to participate in the praise of Christ and in the praise of creation, which by the Spirit’s power raises its peculiar voice to the Father in heaven, for the sake of the world that God so loves.
