Book Synopsis Praying and Preying by : Aparecida Vilaca
Download or read book Praying and Preying written by Aparecida Vilaca and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praying and Preying offers one of the rare anthropological monographs on the Christian experience of contemporary Amazonian indigenous peoples, based on an ethnographic study of the relationship between the Wari’, inhabitants of Brazilian Amazonia, and the Evangelical missionaries of the New Tribes Mission. Vilaça turns to a vast range of historical, ethnographic and mythological material related to both the Wari’ and missionaries perspectives and the author’s own ethnographic field notes from her more than 30-year involvement with the Wari’ community. Developing a close dialogue between the Melanesian literature, which informs much of the recent work in the Anthropology of Christianity, and the concepts and theories deriving from Amazonian ethnology, in particular the notions of openness to the other, unstable dualism, and perspectivism, the author provides a fine-grained analysis of the equivocations and paradoxes that underlie the translation processes performed by the different agents involved and their implications for the transformation of the native notion of personhood.

Book Synopsis Native Christians by : Aparecida Vilaça
Download or read book Native Christians written by Aparecida Vilaça and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native Christians reflects on the modes and effects of Christianity among indigenous peoples of the Americas drawing on comparative analysis of ethnographic and historical cases. Christianity in this region has been part of the process of conquest and domination, through the association usually made between civilizing and converting. While Catholic missions have emphasized the 'civilizing' process, teaching the Indians the skills which they were expected to exercise within the context of a new societal model, the Protestants have centered their work on promoting a deep internal change, or 'conversion', based on the recognition of God's existence. Various ethnologists and scholars of indigenous societies have focused their interest on understanding the nature of the transformations produced by the adoption of Christianity. The contributors in this volume take native thought as the starting point, looking at the need to relativize these transformations. Each author examines different ethnographic cases throughout the Americas, both historical and contemporary, enabling the reader to understand the indigenous points of view in the processes of adoption and transformation of new practices, objects, ideas and values.

Book Synopsis Pray the Gay Away by : Bernadette Barton
Download or read book Pray the Gay Away written by Bernadette Barton and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2014-08-22 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2013 Finalist for the Lambda Literary Awards, LGBT Studies category Barton argues that conventional Southern manners and religious institutions provide a foundation for homophobia in the Bible Belt In the Bible Belt, it’s common to see bumper stickers that claim One Man + One Woman = Marriage, church billboards that command one to “Get right with Jesus,” letters to the editor comparing gay marriage to marrying one’s dog, and nightly news about homophobic attacks from the Family Foundation. While some areas of the Unites States have made tremendous progress in securing rights for gay people, Bible Belt states lag behind. Not only do most Bible Belt gays lack domestic partner benefits, lesbians and gay men can still be fired from some places of employment in many regions of the Bible Belt for being a homosexual. In Pray the Gay Away, Bernadette Barton argues that conventions of small town life, rules which govern Southern manners, and the power wielded by Christian institutions serve as a foundation for both passive and active homophobia in the Bible Belt. She explores how conservative Christian ideology reproduces homophobic attitudes and shares how Bible Belt gays negotiate these attitudes in their daily lives. Drawing on the remarkable stories of Bible Belt gays, Barton brings to the fore their thoughts, experiences and hard-won insights to explore the front lines of our national culture war over marriage, family, hate crimes, and equal rights. Pray the Gay Away illuminates their lives as both foot soldiers and casualties in the battle for gay rights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author teaches you through scriptures why you must pray, how to pray, and gives you testimonies of answered prayer that can motivate you to pray right so you don't become a prey. A prey is described as an animal hunted or caught for food; quarry or one that is defenseless, especially in the face of attack; a victim or one that is helpless or unable to resist attack. Prayer keeps you vigilant, prepared, ready and both on the offensive and on the defensive against your enemies. Some of the topics covered in this book are: DEVOTION, WHAT PRAYER IS, HOW TO START YOUR DAY, HOW TO BUILD AN ALTAR, COVENANT, CURSES AND DEMONS and many more. REMEMBER: 'One day without prayer makes you powerless. One week without prayer makes one weak.' If you are not prayerful you are powerless and will cheaply become a prey. I declare: 'You won't become a prey.'
