Book Synopsis Stumbling Blocks and Stepping-Stones by : Duane E. Jennings
Download or read book Stumbling Blocks and Stepping-Stones written by Duane E. Jennings and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stumbling Blocks and Stepping-Stones is a two-volume publication which vigorously examines Mormonism's long struggle with those it has traditionally deemed as sexually and gender transgressive -- its LGBTI members. It emboldens Latter-day Saints and fellow Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex, believing or disaffected, to dialogue with one another and consider the very real possibility of their full acceptance within the beloved faith community. It makes five enormous contributions: (1)It analyzes the "clobber scriptures" -- those most frequently used to end conversations on the topic -- drawing on a broad spectrum of Jewish, Christian, and academic scholars. The book provides connatural context and reasonable interpretations that broaden the discussion beyond "because God said so."(2)It provides a stimulating overview of scientific research on homosexuality in nature (severely undercutting the "homosexuality isn't natural" argument), what's currently known about the causes/influence on homosexuality, and the history of homophobia that has brought us to our current position. (3)It argues, persuasively, in my opinion, for ways in which the gospel can and does (and the church could and should) include lgbti members in full fellowship. (4)The longest section--part 4--provides a history of interactions between the church and its lgbti members. Because of my love for history, this is my favorite section, even though a lot of it seems like "baby step forward, giant step backwards," especially now. (5)The tone models a combination of compassion, serious scholarship, and firmly founded discipleship that should be elements that govern how the dialogue can and should be conducted.

Download or read book Arise from Darkness written by Benedict C.F.R. Groeschel and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well-known author, psychologist ; and priest Fr. Benedict ; Groeschel draws on his own years of personal experiences in ; dealing with people's problems, tragedies and "darkness" as ; he offers help and guidance for any Christian troubled or ; burdened by life. If you are struggling with fear, anxiety, ; grief, loss of loved ones, hurt, anger or anything that ; makes life difficult or the road through it dark, then this ; book was written for you. Fr. Benedict offers practical ; suggestions on how to keep going and even grow with the ; help of God's grace, even when this help seems remote. ; The Christian response to the problem of evil and ; suffering began with the cross of Christ. Our answer is ; inseparable from the cross-from Jesus' own encounter with ; evil and his triumph over it. In this light, Fr. Benedict ; recalls some of our most frequently encountered sorrows and ; griefs: the failure of friends, financial and personal ; insecurity, the failure of some in the Church, our own ; inconsistent behaviors and weaknesses, and the death of ; loved ones. As we examine these painful experiences, he ; shows that we can find solutions in the Gospel and in the ; lives of saints, heroes, and very brave ordinary people. ; "Many guides have been written for people struggling with ; the mystery of evil. But each generation, each age has its ; own dark background in front of which the struggle to keep ; going must be worked out. In every age, men ask 'how am I ; going to go on to arise from darkness?' It is that which my ; book will address." Fr. Benedict Groeschel, ; CFR

However, after several years of running a numbers-first business and serving his clients well in their financial lives, a family crisis changed his thinking. Tony’s mother retired from her job as the director of a hospice agency, and she quickly fell into a deep depression as she lost her purpose and fulfillment derived from a lifelong career she had been passionate about. On March 22, 2011, Tony’s mother tragically took her own life. After this life-changing tragedy, Tony made it his goal to help pre-retirees not repeat the mistakes his mom made as she transitioned from her career into retirement. You need a plan for both your finances and your lifestyle. Retirement Stepping Stones will help ensure that your retirement brings you pleasure, serenity of mind, and the enjoyment of a life well-lived. That your transition is from success to significance. That you find a newfound hope and a newfound purpose. That retirement brings you your best years.

Book Synopsis Turning Stumbling Blocks Into Stepping Stones by : John Kennedy Akotia
Download or read book Turning Stumbling Blocks Into Stepping Stones written by John Kennedy Akotia and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone makes mistakes and the busier you are, the more mistakes you will make. The question however, is "How well and how effectively do you deal with the inevitable ups and downs of life?"Stumbling blocks are a normal part of life in the real world we live in. The bad news is that you cannot avoid these stumbling blocks in this journey of life. The good news however, is that you have the power of choice to decide whether you allow them to be hindrances to your progress or stepping stones to greater heights.Stumbling Blocks are all the things that seek to hinder, obstruct, interfere, undermine, deny, or counteract your progress in life. As the name goes, they are things or forces that seek to make you stumble or trip and possibly fall down or fall off you vision wagon. They are not necessarily meant to stop you unless of course you choose to let them stop you. They come to test your tenacity and resilience in your endeavours and pursuits of life. In this book “TURNING STUMBLING BLOCKS INTO STEPPING STONES”, you will learn how to benefit from your mistakes and how to remain positive in the face of adversity. You will also learn the difference between a positive and negative worldview. This is because there are two ways to look at the world; the Benevolent way or the Malevolent way. People with a malevolent or negative worldview take a victim stance, seeing life as a continuous succession of problems and a process of unfairness and oppression. They do not expect a lot and they do not get much. When things go wrong, they shrug their shoulders and passively accept that this is the way life is and there is not anything they can do to make it better. On the other hand, people with a benevolent or positive worldview see the world around them as filled with opportunities and possibilities. They believe that everything happens as part of a great process designed to make them successful and happy. They approach their lives, their work, and their relationships with optimism, cheerfulness, and a general attitude of positive expectations. They expect a lot and they are seldom disappointed.

Book excerpt: A simple, fun instruction manual for living a more joy-filled, authentic life! By one of the most admired spiritual teachers in the country, this book shows us how every moment, every experience, and every person can be an opening for our soul--to greater understanding, more peace and joy, and an overwhelming experience of love. Divided into three easy-to-use parts, this book will: - Tell a fable that puts our spiritual journey into context. - Discuss the seven spiritual principles that are universal to all of the world's wisdom traditions, becoming a map into our purpose and destiny. - Show how nine specific challenges and difficulties (like fear, illness, and change) can be transformed into stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. Each chapter also includes three parts: the Essence, the Experience, and the Expression. The Essence gives the spiritual teaching behind each principle, the Experience tells a story, illustrating the principles from Dr. Teel's own life or the life of one of his many followers, and the Expression gives specific instructions for readers to embody that principle for themselves. Filled with advice that can only come from a lifetime of practicing these traditions, this book will be a unique and indispensable guide to people who want more from their lives.
