Download or read book Read for Your Life written by Joseph Gold and published by Markham, Ont. : Fitzhenry & Whiteside. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mr Gold adroitly and expertly advocates the necessity of reading in our lives. Actually he goes as far as claiming that reading is a biological necessity in the same way as eating is. Reading is thinking, imagining, understanding, feeling and healing. It is an activity that is far from an escape or an avoidance of reality because it provides the reader the necessary relief from the ad hoc reacting and chaos of socialising by taking care of us, leading us and letting us imagine alternative lives through the complex paths of experience and language. In this sense reading truly is a therapeutic experience and Mr Gold gives numerous examples of patients he managed to cure by giving them novels to read because they are an experiential tool for re-seeing and reordering the reader's own confusing experience. Novels take on our confusion, they bear our burdens and leave us to see the larger picture we cannot see because they offer another perspective. Reading being the most powerful and plentiful source of information, it isn't surprising that a vital element for the survival of any totalitarian regime is to take control of what people read because language is power. Authors like Aldus Huxley, George Orwell and above all Ray Bradbury have masterfully illustrated this point in their novels, the latter showing what happens to a civilisation in which television replaces literacy. People may still be able to read but they are what we may call "literary illiterates". No doubt Mr Gold's message is clear: we have to read for the salvation of our spirit.

Book Synopsis Read Matthew to Live Your Life, Read John to Save Your Soul by : Douglas Kindred
Download or read book Read Matthew to Live Your Life, Read John to Save Your Soul written by Douglas Kindred and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-05-19 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I recommend Dr. Kindred’s book to anyone who has the desire to gain a fuller, more tangible understanding of the words of Jesus Christ. The author’s very personal account of his own experiences may give others a point of reference in their own lives.” —Lou Angora, Executive Producer, Morning Light Films As I was going through a terrible trial in my life, I remembered something that my mom had said to me when I was a teenager. She said, “Read Matthew to live your life, read John to save your soul.” That turned out to be the best advice I ever got! I started talking to other people, sharing this with them, and I was amazed to find that so few knew what Jesus said. This led me to write this book to tell everyone what Christ said about how to live your life and how to save your soul. He gave us a “how to” guide. His message is clear and concise and doesn’t need a lot of interpretation. He says what He means, and He means what He says. It is pure truth!
Book Synopsis Why You Should Read Kafka Before You Waste Your Life by : James Hawes
Download or read book Why You Should Read Kafka Before You Waste Your Life written by James Hawes and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2008-07-08 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody knows the face of Franz Kafka, whether they have read any of his works or not. And that brooding face carries instant images: bleak and threatening visions of an inescapable bureaucracy, nightmarish transformations, uncanny predictions of the Holocaust. But while Kafka's genius is beyond question, the image of a mysterious, sickly, shadowy figure who was scarcely known in his own lifetime bears no resemblance to the historical reality. Franz Kafka was a popular and well-connected millionaire's son who enjoyed good-time girls, brothels, and expensive porn, who landed a highly desirable state job that pulled in at least $90,000 a year in today's dollars for a six-hour day, who remained a loyal member of Prague's German-speaking Imperial elite right to the end, and whose work was backed by a powerful literary clique. Here are some of the prevalent Kafka myths: *Kafka was the archetypal genius neglected in his lifetime. *Kafka was lonely. *Kafka was stuck in a dead-end job, struggling to find time to write. *Kafka was tormented by fear of sex. *Kafka was unbendingly honest about himself to the women in his life – too honest. *Kafka had a terrible, domineering father who had no understanding of his son's needs. *Kafka's style is mysterious and opaque. *Kafka takes us into bizarre worlds. James Hawes wants to tear down the critical walls which generations of gatekeepers---scholars, biographers, and tourist guides---have built up around Franz Kafka, giving us back the real man and the real significance of his splendid works. And he'll take no prisoners in the process.
Book Synopsis How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) by : Michael Youssef
Download or read book How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) written by Michael Youssef and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As fewer Christians read the Bible daily, fewer understand what a marvelous revelation it is from God to man. How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) offers believers and nonbelievers alike a new appreciation for the Bible, helping them to read it for understanding, not just as the storybook they remember from childhood. There is no other book like the Bible. God used at least forty human writers over more than 1,600 years to compost the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments.They included kings and shepherds, a physician and a tax collector. They lived on three continents—Europe, Asia, and Africa. Yet the Bible is a single Book with a single Author, focused on a single theme: Jesus the Messiah, our Redeemer. From beginning to end, the Bible tells the story of the Kingdom of God and its King. The Old Testament tells us He is coming. The New Testament announces that He has arrived. The sixty-six books of the Bible do not tell sixty-six stories. Together they tell one story. It’s the story of humanity’s rebellion against God and God’s redemptive love for the human race. It’s the story of a Kingdom and a Covenant, of one Lord who saves completely and rules eternally. The unity of the Bible confounds human wisdom. The unity of the Bible baffles its critics. The unity of the Bible challenges its enemies. There’s no book like this Book because there’s no author like its Author.

Book Synopsis What's Right with the Church by : Elmer L. Towns
Download or read book What's Right with the Church written by Elmer L. Towns and published by Gospel Light Publications. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early believers of Jesus Christ knew that they were not just members of an organization, nor were they just an extension of Old Testament Judaism. They knew that they were followers of the living Lord Jesus Christ. They were members of a thing called the church. Through the centuries, the church has been the most powerful transforming force in history. Yet in America many observe it as anemic and powerless. Author Elmer Towns contends that there is good news; there are many things that are still right with the church. What Is Right With the Church affirms the positive things that are present in the church today, and what will carry it forward as a transforming force. This book is not a defense of the traditional church, nor does it run to embrace all new forms of worship. Rather this book examines the biblical nature of church allowing the best to come forth. It is not a book about old churches, new churches or home churches. It is a book about what is right about every true church, no matter the expression, history or culture. A growing number of people are not aware of the enduring strengths of the church. The author contends that if believers in Christ are to effectively move forward with healthy communities and a vibrant faith in this new century, they must be established on foundational, biblical truths and core values. And when this happens, the church thrives as a transforming force.
