Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what it would be like to journey through the Holy Land? It sure is different from my home in Alaska. Going to Israel is a very personal and spiritual experience; there is so much to take in that it's impossible to share unless you've experienced it yourself. I went to Israel with Selah Ministries for the Israel 12-12-12 Mission Trip. We were Sojourners in the Wilderness, depositing a "New Sound" in the atmosphere with worship, declaration, and proclamations. What happened in Israel over December 2012? What impact did it have over nations? Attempting to discover the answers to these questions, I learned about where we went, why we went there, and what the Bible says about the places we visited. Just as music genres, music artists, and the times we're in change the direction which humanity moves, our hope was to cause a shift from the very central point of the planet that would reach the ends of the earth. Could we cause a shift in the direction of humanity? I encourage you to join me on this journey of pilgrimage to the Holy Land and experience for yourself things you may never have known or encountered about God, His Promised Land, and His people.

Book Synopsis Strangers and Sojourners by : Arthur W. Thurner
Download or read book Strangers and Sojourners written by Arthur W. Thurner and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Thurner tells of the enormous struggle of the diverse immigrants who built and sustained energetic towns and communities, creating a lively civilization in what was essentially a forest wilderness. Their story is one of incredible economic success and grim tragedy in which mine workers daily risked their lives. By highlighting the roles women, African Americans, and Native Americans played in the growth of the Keweenaw community, Thurner details a neglected and ignored past. The history of Keweenaw Peninsula for the past one hundred and fifty years reflects contemporary American culture--a multicultural, pluralistic, democratic welfare state still undergoing evolution. Strangers and Sojourners, with its integration of social and economic history, for the first time tells the complete story of the people from the Keweenaw Peninsula's Baraga, Houghton, Keweenaw, and Ontonagon counties.
Book Synopsis Sojourners in the Wilderness by : Corwin E. Smidt
Download or read book Sojourners in the Wilderness written by Corwin E. Smidt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1997 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the Christian Right has been the subject of a good deal of scholarly analysis, it has not been adequately studied within a comparative context -- across time, across different institutional systems, or across different religious communities. In Sojourners in the Wilderness, a host of distinguished scholars examine these dimensions of the Christian Right. The contributors analyze the Christian Right historically -- what is its relationship today with earlier manifestations? How have its organizational structures and strategies changed over time? Sociologically -- what are the current opportunities for Christian Right inroads within African-American, Catholic, and Jewish communities?; and politically -- what accounts for the affinity between many evangelical Protestants and the Christian Right within the American political context, while such an affinity appears to be lacking in other political contexts? All of those interested in religion's role in politics and history will find this book valuable.

Download or read book Sojourners written by Matthew The Poor and published by St Macarius Press. This book was released on 2019-12 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The secrets of the journey stipulate certain rules. We should always feel that we are sojourners, pilgrims seeking their eternal homeland. This feeling should not disappear from our heart, mind, or body for a single moment. We should cherish it both inwardly and outwardly, lest we inadvertently forget the state of our exile, an exile in which we feed on the inextinguishable love of God. For fire can be quenched with a little water, but love, if it really burns within one's heart, nothing can quench it; - neither disdain, nor contempt, nor hostility, nor humiliation, nor indifference. If these negative feelings found a place in an enemy's heart and death itself embodied in a hostile person, even this would not quench love!
Download or read book Seeking Refuge written by Stephan Bauman and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recipient of Christianity Today's Award of Merit in Politics and Public Life, 2016 ------ What will rule our hearts: fear or compassion? We can’t ignore the refugee crisis—arguably the greatest geo-political issue of our time—but how do we even begin to respond to something so massive and complex? In Seeking Refuge, three experts from World Relief, a global organization serving refugees, offer a practical, well-rounded, well-researched guide to the issue. Who are refugees and other displaced peoples? What are the real risks and benefits of receiving them? How do we balance compassion and security? Drawing from history, public policy, psychology, many personal stories, and their own unique Christian worldview, the authors offer a nuanced and compelling portrayal of the plight of refugees and the extraordinary opportunity we have to love our neighbors as ourselves.
Book Synopsis Sanctuary in the Desert by : Jeannine VanVoorst
Download or read book Sanctuary in the Desert written by Jeannine VanVoorst and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sanctuary in the Desert is a thirty-day devotional documenting a Christians wilderness journey and discovery of Gods presence. As the travelers connection to God unfolds, his all-encompassing love is often reminiscent of the beautiful relationship between the bridegroom and the bride in the Song of Solomon in the Bible. No believer who chooses to follow Christ is exempt from the desert experience, though circumstances differ in each travelers passage. The trial by fire may be personal, financial, or economic distress from the loss of a job, home, or health. However, the purpose of the wilderness and the knowledge imparted to the sojourner remain the same. Originally titled Forty Days in the Desert . . . and Counting, the theme of this devotional is ongoing. The traveler oftentimes is bound by his perception of past failure, present immobility, and future uncertainty. Yet he moves forward, mindful that failure is a necessary evil and a facet of success. The expectation is that with every tumble, the journeyman will jump back onto his horse, re-enter the race, and ride hard until he crosses the finish line. Philippians 3:1214 aptly urges the seeker to press on toward the high calling of Jesus Christforgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.
Book Synopsis In the Land of Sojourners by : John Elsadai
Download or read book In the Land of Sojourners written by John Elsadai and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Land of Sojourners is made up of the thoughts and expressions of a Christian sojourner, traveling from the countryside around a village in southern India to the largely desert but oil-rich Middle East, and through the corridors of hills and valleys of the United States, on his way toward the Eternal City. The author watches generations come and go while observing from a mixed perspective of conservative and liberal cultures. In this book, you will find the vision of an immigrant, the dream of an evangelist, the hope of a Christian, and the destiny of a Sojourner. Once you start this book, you will not be able to stop reading until the end. The fifty-two chapters are essentially fifty-two memorable devotional lessons with their spiritual and charismatic beauty. John Elsadai, author of several books published in the languages of his native India, is well known among ethnic evangelical Christian communities. Most of his books are character studies of persons in the Bible, writings that expound on the moral culture that a Christian might pursue. Born into a Christian family in India, where majority populations are Hindu, John Elsadai was employed in the Middle East before he eventually migrated to the United States. He has a special talent for expressing his views and thoughts to his readers by way of examples and life experiences. Elsadai believes that any conflict in theology should be brought finally before the Cross of Christ, where it can be settled with prayer. He and his wife Elsy are parents of two daughters, Betsy Ann and Blessy Ann.

Using real and in-depth ministry and counseling conversations, it identifies the journey through the wilderness of grief.

Built on the ministry concept of “sojourning,” The Unwanted Gift of Grief offers guidelines to be used in helping people in their journey through the adjustment period that follows a loss, a time that may include the darkness of disbelief, frustration, anger, sadness, depression, and healing light as they make their way through the wilderness of grief. Topics examined in The Unwanted Gift of Grief include: grief as gratitude and gift how family and culture can affect grieving different pathways through grief everyone grieves differently sudden loss, slow losing, rejection and suicide identifying the agony and characteristics of depression grief factors that affect marriage and sexuality saying “Yes” to death factors of faith, science and miracles the labor and contractions of dying and death the hope for healing and cure how to help: the Sojourner’s Process Guide the Grief Date: A Guide for Couples fifty ways to make it through the wilderness and much more The Unwanted Gift of Grief is an essential resource for anyone lost in the wilderness of loss and grief, and for professionals, lay ministers, family, and friends who care for them.

Book Synopsis Sojourner Truth's America by : Margaret Washington
Download or read book Sojourner Truth's America written by Margaret Washington and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2011-04-21 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating biography tells the story of nineteenth-century America through the life of one of its most charismatic and influential characters: Sojourner Truth. In an in-depth account of this amazing activist, Margaret Washington unravels Sojourner Truth's world within the broader panorama of African American slavery and the nation's most significant reform era. Born into bondage among the Hudson Valley Dutch in Ulster County, New York, Isabella was sold several times, married, and bore five children before fleeing in 1826 with her infant daughter one year before New York slavery was abolished. In 1829, she moved to New York City, where she worked as a domestic, preached, joined a religious commune, and then in 1843 had an epiphany. Changing her name to Sojourner Truth, she began traveling the country as a champion of the downtrodden and a spokeswoman for equality by promoting Christianity, abolitionism, and women's rights. Gifted in verbal eloquence, wit, and biblical knowledge, Sojourner Truth possessed an earthy, imaginative, homespun personality that won her many friends and admirers and made her one of the most popular and quoted reformers of her times. Washington's biography of this remarkable figure considers many facets of Sojourner Truth's life to explain how she became one of the greatest activists in American history, including her African and Dutch religious heritage; her experiences of slavery within contexts of labor, domesticity, and patriarchy; and her profoundly personal sense of justice and intuitive integrity. Organized chronologically into three distinct eras of Truth's life, Sojourner Truth's America examines the complex dynamics of her times, beginning with the transnational contours of her spirituality and early life as Isabella and her embroilments in legal controversy. Truth's awakening during nineteenth-century America's progressive surge then propelled her ascendancy as a rousing preacher and political orator despite her inability to read and write. Throughout the book, Washington explores Truth's passionate commitment to family and community, including her vision for a beloved community that extended beyond race, gender, and socioeconomic condition and embraced a common humanity. For Sojourner Truth, the significant model for such communalism was a primitive, prophetic Christianity. Illustrated with dozens of images of Truth and her contemporaries, Sojourner Truth's America draws a delicate and compelling balance between Sojourner Truth's personal motivations and the influences of her historical context. Washington provides important insights into the turbulent cultural and political climate of the age while also separating the many myths from the facts concerning this legendary American figure.
Book Synopsis A Way Through the Wilderness by : Rob Renfroe
Download or read book A Way Through the Wilderness written by Rob Renfroe and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At one time or another, everyone has a wilderness experience, a time when life is barren and difficult and we feel alone and desperate, not knowing where to turn. Whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a financial or health crisis, divorce, or some other painful experience, we see no end in sight and wonder how we can make it through another day. In the Scriptures we see that often God’s people went through a wilderness experience, and these experiences changed them in profound ways. The truth is that it’s impossible to go through the wilderness without being changed. There’s a way through the wilderness that can leave us broken and bitter and far away from God. But there’s another way through—God’s way—that leaves us with a deeper faith and draws us closer to God than we ever imagined. With sensitivity and warmth, Rob Renfroe explores the wilderness experience—what it is, how we get there, why God allows it, and how we can get through it God’s way so that we learn the lessons that can be learned only in the desolate seasons of life when we are totally dependent on God. A DVD featuring six interviews with the author and a full leader guide are also available for group study.
