Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical plan for the millions of people in their fifties and sixties who find themselves out of work, unable to find a job, and financially incapable of retiring, Elizabeth White shows how to get past any blame or shame, overcome denial, and find a path to a new normal. Elizabeth White has an impressive resume, which includes advanced degrees from Harvard and Johns Hopkins and a distinguished employment history. She started a business that failed and then tried to reenter the work force in her mid-fifties, only to learn that there is little demand for workers her age. For a while Elizabeth lived in denial, but then had to adjust to her new reality, shedding the gym membership, getting a roommate, forgoing restaurant meals, and so on. She soon learned she wasn’t alone: there are millions of Americans in her predicament and worse, exhausted from trying to survive and overcome every day. In 55, Underemployed, and Faking Normal, Elizabeth invites you to look beyond your immediate circumstances to what is possible in the new normal of financial insecurity. You’re in your fifties and sixties, and may have saved nothing or not nearly enough to retire. It’s too late for blame or shame—and it wouldn’t help anyway. What you want to know is what you can do now to have a shot at a decent retirement. “This relevant and well-researched book will appeal not only to those 55 plus, but to the generation coming right behind them who may face similar issues” (Booklist, starred review). 55, Underemployed, and Faking Normal is a must-have for anyone whose income has suddenly diminished or even disappeared. “Providing practical solutions with a focus on retirement and maximizing savings, White maintains authority with a realistic, empathetic tone throughout. This deeply useful work will resonate with aging readers of all income levels and situations” (Publishers Weekly). If you’re ready to get serious about feeling good again, this book is for you.

Download or read book Aquinas Against the Averroists written by Ralph McInerny and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1260s in Paris, a dispute raged that concerned the relationship between faith and the Augustinian theological tradition on the one side and secular leaning as represented by the arrival in Latin of Aristotle and various Islamic and Jewish interpreters of Aristotle on the other. Masters of the arts faculty in Paris represented the latter tradition, indicated by the phrase "double truth theory." In 1269, Thomas Aquinas wrote the polemical work On There Being Only One Intellect, Against the Averroists (De unitate intellectus contra averroistas). Thomas is intent on countering two views: first, that intellect is not a faculty of the soul that animates our body, and second, that there is a single intellect existing separately that suffices for all people. Brief as it is, this work puts into play all the significant strands of Thomas's teaching on man - historical doctrinal, philosophical, and theological. It is a valuable source for discussing Thomas's views on the relationship between Aristotle and Christianity and puts to rest the misleading claim that Thomas baptized Aristotle." The introduction places the work historically and sketches the controversy to which it was a contribution. Part 2 includes the Latin Leonine text and McInerny's translation. Part 3 analyzes the basic arguments of Thomas's work and provides a series of interpretive essays meant to make Thomas accessible to today's readers.

Download or read book Summa Theologiae, Prima Pars written by Thomas Aquinas and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to three questions on love according to St. Thomas Aquinas (Summa Theologiae I-II, qq. 26-28). These three questions reflect on the nature of love (q. 26), the causes of love (q. 27), and the effects of love (q. 28). It is thus an introduction to the entire phenomenon of love, both as a bodily passion and an act of the will. The purpose is to present the Thomistic and broadly scholastic account of human and divine love from a philosophical and theological perspective. It aims to be a theological and philosophical study of the topic, useful both for a graduate/professional audience, as part of an undergraduate or graduate course, and perhaps for the educated reader. The thesis of the book is that, contrary to contemporary conceptions, not all loves are created equal. Some loves perfect us and some loves corrupt us. The worth of a love depends on its object and end. St. Thomas thus presents an objective and teleological account of human and divine love that is of philosophical and theological interest. The method is broadly exegetical, presenting a careful reading of the text and supplying the philosophical and theological background which the text of Aquinas assumes. The scope of the work is limited to three questions (ST I-II, qq. 26-28). References to interpretative disputes of Aquinas and references to further resources in the secondary literature will be mostly limited to the footnotes, making the body of the text accessible to more readers.

Download or read book Second Act Soul Calls written by Lorraine Banfield and published by . This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Baby Boom generation, all 78 million of them, is hitting or has already hit, that all-important phase of human development, the midlife passage. This passage is often fraught with challenges, discontent and a feeling of diminishing possibilities, but this generation, unlike their parents, has been given the gift of extra time. In many cases this generation will live up to thirty years longer than any other generation before them. What to do with this time is the focus of the book, Second Act Soul Calls Your Guide to the Re-Invention of Your Life at Midlife and Beyond with Passion, Purpose, and Possibilities. Both practical and pragmatic but also spiritual and soulful, this book will change your life if you listen to the call of your soul and take its challenges to heart. Lorraine Banfield, a psychotherapist, career counselor and life coach writes the perfect book to help you negotiate this time of life. Banfield s thesis is that midlife and beyond is a time of life ripe for hearing the call of your soul and reinventing your life in a way that meets both the needs and desires of your soul but which also contributes in some way to the greater good. The book is written in four parts, each with unique tasks and challenges. The first part asks you to take some time to enter the mysteries of the soul by taking some time out alone to listen for that still small voice that knows the way to a new and invigorating life. The second part is on taking stock of your gifts and talents by taking a journey back to your childhood to see what your ten-year-old self loved, hated and what got you into trouble, but also by looking at what you love to do now and what you also hate doing. The third part is on the obstacles and dragons you will face in terms of truly reinventing your life. The last part is about manifesting your soul s call. In this part she talks about redefining retirement to one of engagement in productive work, whether paid or unpaid. She calls this re-invention planning rather than retirement planning. She also encourages her readers to make sure that what they call a soul call also contributes to the greater good rather than simply contributing to their own personal good as she sees this as a win-win for both the individual and the planet. Banfield ends her book with eighteen strategies for putting your soul s call into practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madison Newman is a young girl with a secret, one she hides even from her parents. Moved by the Holy Spirit to touch people's lives in a powerful way, the teenager hopes to remain anonymous and live a normal life. Madison soon comes to realize that she's been prepared for an even greater work; one that she fears will take her away from her family and change her life forever. When traveling faith-healer, Russell Stillman, witnesses Madison perform a miracle, he sees an opportunity worth a fortune. The cunning con-artist goes to dangerous lengths, and risks everything to learn the girl's secret and use it to his advantage. Reluctant to leave home, yet understanding that God's will cannot be postponed indefinitely, Madison struggles with knowing how to explain to her parents what she's experienced in the spirit. That decision is taken out of her hands when, on one fateful night, Madison's secret is spectacularly and publicly revealed to a world that turns against her in suspicion and fear. When spiritual forces of darkness threaten to tear her family apart, Madison realizes she cannot turn away from what God has called her to do. This is the first book of the exciting, "Second Acts," trilogy.

Download or read book The Trinity written by Thomas Joseph White, OP and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith. What can we say about the divine nature, and what does it mean to say that God is Father, Son, Holy Spirit, three persons who are one in being? In this book, best selling author Thomas Joseph White, OP, examines the development of early Christian reflection on the Trinity, arguing that essential contributions of Patristic theology are preserved and expanded in the thought of Thomas Aquinas. By focusing on Aquinas’ theology of the divine nature as well as his treatment of divine personhood, White explores in depth the mystery of Trinitarian monotheism. The Trinity: On the Nature and Mystery of the One God also engages with influential proposals of modern theologians on major topics such as Trinitarian creation, Incarnation and crucifixion, and presents creative engagements with these topics. Ultimately any theology of the cross is also a theology of the Trinity, and this book seeks to illustrate how the human life, death, and resurrection of Jesus reveal the inner life of God as Trinity.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Saint Thomas Aquinas written by Brock Stephen L and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Saint Thomas Aquinas was a great theologian, it is in no small part because he was a great philosopher. And he was a great philosopher because he was a great metaphysician. In the twentieth century, metaphysics was not much in vogue, among eithertheologians or even philosophers; but now it is making a comeback, and once the contours of Thomas's metaphysical vision are glimpsed, it looks like anything but a museum piece. It only needs some dusting off. Many are studying Thomas now for the answers that he might be able to give to current questions, but he is perhaps even more interesting for the questions that he can raise regarding current answers: about the physical world, about human life and knowledge, and (needless to say) about God. This book is aimed at helping those who are not experts in medieval thought to begin to enter into Thomas's philosophical point of view. Along the way, it brings out some aspects of his thought that are not often emphasised in the current literature, and it offers a reading of his teaching on the divine nature that goes rather against the drift of some prominent recent interpretations.

Download or read book Aquinas on the Beginning and End of Human Life written by Fabrizio Amerini and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contemporary discussions of abortion, both sides argue well-worn positions, particularly concerning the question, When does human life begin? Though often invoked by the Catholic Church for support, Thomas Aquinas in fact held that human life begins after conception, not at the moment of union. But his overall thinking on questions of how humans come into being, and cease to be, is more subtle than either side in this polarized debate imagines. Fabrizio Amerini—an internationally-renowned scholar of medieval philosophy—does justice to Aquinas’ views on these controversial issues. Some pro-life proponents hold that Aquinas’ position is simply due to faulty biological knowledge, and if he knew what we know today about embryology, he would agree that human life begins at conception. Others argue that nothing Aquinas could learn from modern biology would have changed his mind. Amerini follows the twists and turns of Aquinas’ thinking to reach a nuanced and detailed solution in the final chapters that will unsettle familiar assumptions and arguments. Systematically examining all the pertinent texts and placing each in historical context, Amerini provides an accurate reconstruction of Aquinas’ account of the beginning and end of human life and assesses its bioethical implications for today. This major contribution is available to an English-speaking audience through translation by Mark Henninger, himself a noted scholar of medieval philosophy.
