Book Synopsis One Trail Many Paths by : Jim Dashiell
Download or read book One Trail Many Paths written by Jim Dashiell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-07 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Appalachian Trail was beautiful, evil, demanding but forgiving. It taught us the importance of individuality, luck and determination. The best lesson, however, was the value of each person who hiked it, maintained it, and provided trail magic to the random anonymous hiker. We're all family on the Trail. Shared hardships act as a bond. This book offers observations of the same experiences from a variety of viewpoints complete with the good and bad memories. From a married couple, a father-son team, sisters, a hostel owner, a Marine who just finished his military career, a retired orthopedic surgeon, an Australian long distance hiker, young, middle-aged and senior men and women.....all have their stories to tell. If you like fun, adventure, raw emotion, and honesty you'll find it all in these chapters. Because each author can't tell their whole story they must condense their trail experience to events most meaningful to them. As you will see, we all suffered, rejoiced, were disappointed, and rewarded almost daily during the many months we hiked through the "green tunnel." OUR TIME ON THE TRAIL CHANGED US, EACH AND EVERY ONE.
Download or read book Many Paths written by Eugene Hillman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-06-01 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Many Paths, Eugene Hillman, a pioneer in the area of interreligious dialogue and Catholic thought, argues that the wider ecumenism to which Christians were summoned by Vatican II may prove to be the most radically demanding of the Council's many calls. It requires a reexamination of christology, of ecclesiology, of missiology, and a coming-to-terms with the reality of religious pluralism. By exploring religion's historico-cultural dimensions, examining the Church's tradition and practice vis-^-vis other cultures and religions, and explicating the challenges of a post-Vatican II ministry, Many Paths makes a vital contribution to the development of interreligious dialogue.
Download or read book Many Paths written by J. P. Vaswani and published by Sterling Publications. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dada J P Vaswani firmly believes: "Religions came to unite, to reconcile, to create harmony among men". It is this spirit of unity, understanding and harmony that pervades his attempt to write this compact introduction to the great religions of the world. This book will teach you to respect and appreciate the diverse faiths and belief systems by which we and our fellow human beings live. As the title indicates, each religion, each system of faith, is a pathway hewn out by a community of believers to take them closer to God and Salvation. The paths may be many; but what this book brings out is that the goal is the same for all aspirants. Most of us are not found to be wanting in loyalty to our faiths; the problem is to cultivate a healthy respect for what others believe! This is a worthy aim which Revered Dada can surely help you achieve with this balanced, thoughtful work, written in the true Indian spirit of reverence and appreciation for all approaches to Truth and Divinity. The author presents each religion as a precious jewel embellished in the crown of world civilisation. So, whether it is Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Jainism, Judaism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Baha'ism, Sufism or Zoroastrianism, the individual artefact is distinct, precious and unique. But, the sub-stratum of belief that is at the core of their structure is eternal and unchanging: faith in the One God and the unity and fellowship of all Creation. And running as a golden thread through them all is the ultimate law which every faith never ever fails to emphasise: Do nothing that may cause pain to others. Here is a book which will reinforce your faith in humanity and help you to become aware of what Vedanta emphasises: the One behind the Many, the Single Divinity behind the multiplicity of thought and creation.
Book Synopsis One People, Many Paths by : John Gurda
Download or read book One People, Many Paths written by John Gurda and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In One People, Many Paths, Gurda excels at the complicated task of writing a fair-minded narrative about a community united in diversity. Milwaukee's first Jews were mostly enterprising businessmen who came with the great German immigration after 1848. The community changed with the arrival of Jews from Eastern Europe with distinctly different customs. Gurda discusses religion and secularism, socialism and Zionism and the various movements with Judaism in the overall context of Milwaukee history and the situation of Jews worldwide. One People, Many Paths also shows how the entrepreneurial, intellectual and cultural contributions by the city's Jewish residents over the past have made Milwaukee a richer place. - by David Luhrssen for ExpressMilwaukee.com.

Such is the agony of Gus who sacrifices his love for Jenny for the sake of his identical twin Tony. It all began when Jenny and her dear friend Sara shared a table in a crowded restaurant in Philadelphia with two handsome, charming young men visiting from New York where they were preparing to open an upscale restaurant. They offered Jenny a job. Observing the twins, Sara later asks, I wonder what happens when twins fall in love with the same girl? Jennys heart is broken when her father dies, and soon afterwards, Sara commits suicide. She collapses and is taken by Jonathan Holbrook, whom she met at her fathers funeral, to his psychiatric hospital for a few days. Returning home, she is haunted by the loss of the two people she loved, so she accepts the job offer and flees to New York. Maria, the twins mother, invites Jenny to stay with them in a condominium high above Central Park. The kind, good-natured Antonellis become her family. Tony glows with love for Jenny, and she feels the same way about him. However, in one unguarded moment, she sees Gus gazing at her like Tony does. Unable to marry one and hurt the other, she returns home to complete her final year at Drexel University and earn her degree in fashion design. Desperately poor, Jenny sells her little house and rents a cheap apartment in center city Philadelphia where shes near the university and can work evenings in a department store. Jonathan finds her and lavishes her with expensive gifts. One year later, lonely and weary of her struggle, she allows him to trick her into marriage. He promises to help her to jump-start her career, a promise he immediately breaks, demanding they have a family first because of his age.

Book Synopsis Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide by : Michelle J. Morris
Download or read book Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide written by Michelle J. Morris and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each congregation has a unique mission field. Several tools for developing disciples and for engaging in discipleship are available to churches; however, the resources assume that the churches using them are similar to the church that created them. With Gospel Discipleship, individuals and churches learn how to engage in self-reflection, which then defines a path that fits their context. The discipleship path for each individual disciple is assessed and determined through the Gospel Discipleship Participant Guide while this Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide guides the implemntation of the program and assesses the discipleship path for the congregation as a whole. Therefore, the program leader(s) needs the congregation guide while individual particpants need their own participant guide. With Gospel Discipleship, churches can identify a pathway for discipleship applied from one of the four Gospel storytellers: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each had a distinct approach to discipleship which can be applied to a given church's identity, vision, and mission. As disciples are encouraged by the church to step beyond the door and engage the needs of people, they can be sent forth confidently with an awareness of personal, unique gifts, and insights into the actual mission field where they participate with God in changing the world.
Download or read book Paths written by András Gulyás and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book explores the amazing similarity between paths taken by people and many other things in life, and its impact on the way we live, teach and learn. Offering insights into the new scientific field of paths as part of the science of networks, it entertainingly describes the universal nature of paths in large networked structures. It also shows the amazing similarity in the ways humans and other - even nonliving - things navigate in a complex environment, to allow readers to easily grasp how paths emerge in many walks of life, and how they are navigated. Paths is based on the authors recent research in the area of paths on networks, which points to the possible birth of the new science of "paths" as a natural consequence 'and extension) of the science of "networks." The approach is essentially story-based, supported by scientific findings, interdisciplinary approaches, and at times, even philosophical points of view. It also includes short illustrative anecdotes showing the amazing similarities between real-world paths and discusses their applications in science and everyday life. Paths will appeal to network scientists and to anyone interested in popular science. By helping readers to step away from the "networked" view of many recent popular scientific books and start to think of longer paths instead of individual links, it sheds light on these problems from a genuinely new perspective. The path is the goal. The essence behind this short sentence is known to many people around the world, expressed through the interpretations of some of the greatest thinkers like Lao-Tze and Gandhi. It means that it is the journey that counts, not the destination. When speaking about such subjective and intangible things, philosophy and religion are some of the only approaches that are addressed. In this book, the authors address this conventional wisdom from the perspective of natural science. They explore a sequence of steps that leads the reader closer to the nature of paths and accompany him on the search for "the path to paths".
