Download or read book Sometime Saints/Part-Time Sinners written by Robert M. Jackson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2019-09-09 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "He's a walking contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction."This lyric from an early 1970s song written by Kris Kristofferson resonated the first time I heard it and has continued to vibrate for almost a half century. I've never known a wholly-holy person or one entirely devilish. They no doubt exist, but their stories do little to inform those of us who dwell in a world where light and darkness merge: sometimes we're a saint/sometimes we're a sinner
Book Synopsis Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners by : Michael R. Emlet

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many complexities associated with ministering to another person. Where does a helper begin? What’s important to notice? Is there an overall ministry strategy that’s beneficial? Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners by author and counselor Michael R. Emlet outlines a model of one-another ministry based on how God sees and loves his people. Emlet helps readers use Scripture to find foundational categories for understanding and approaching one another, which serve as guideposts for wise care. Filled with everyday illustrations as well as counseling examples, Emlet demonstrates what it looks like to approach fellow believers simultaneously as saints, sufferers, and sinners. As part of CCEF's Helping the Helper series, this guide for ministry provides an overall framework for wisely helping any person, balancing all three aspects of our experience as Christians.

Download or read book Godric written by Frederick Buechner and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1983-11-02 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederick Buechner's Godric "retells the life of Godric of Finchale, a twelfth-century English holy man whose projects late in life included that of purifying his moral ambition of pride...Sin, spiritual yearning, rebirth, fierce asceticism--these hagiographic staples aren't easy to revitalize but Frederick Buechner goes at the task with intelligent intensity and a fine readiness to invent what history doesn't supply. He contrives a style of speech for his narrator--Godric himself--that's brisk and tough-sinewed...He avoids metaphysical fiddle, embedding his narrative in domestic reality--familiar affection, responsibilities, disasters...All on his own, Mr. Buechner has managed to reinvent projects of self-purification and of faith as piquant matter for contemporary fiction [in a book] notable for literary finish...Frederick Buechner is a very good writer indeed." -- Benjamin DeMott, The New York Times Book Review "From the book's opening sentence...and sensible reader will be caught in Godric's grip...Godric glimmers brightly." -- Peter S. Prescott, Newsweek "Godric is a memorable book...a marvelous gem of a book...destined to become a classic of its kind." -- Michael Heskett, Houston Chronicle "In the extraordinary figure of Godric, both stubborn outsider and true child of God, both worldly and unworldly, Frederick Buechner has found an ideal means of exploring the nature of spirituality. Godric is a living battleground where God fights it out with the world, the Flesh, and the Devil." -- London Times Literary Supplement "Wityh a poet's sensibly and a high reverent fancy, Frederick Buechner paints a memorable portrait." -- Edmund Fuller, The Wall Street Journal

Book Synopsis God, You Formed Me to be a Holy Husband But Something Caught my Eye by : Cynthia Johnson

This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God’s Husbands, it is time to return to your first love. The number one reason to return to God is your out-of-order lifestyle. It is causing children to develop confusing and un-Christianlike tendencies, hindering their own growth. Do you believe it is okay for Daddy to have a wife and a lover? Is it okay by God for Dad to divorce and marry two, three, and multiple times? Do you believe its okay for Dad to cause harm and unnecessary emotional stress upon his family? “A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children; and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just” (Proverbs 13:22). Men of God, what lifestyle are you leaving for your sons and daughters? Ask yourself, is it Holy living? Why are there so many Christian women unmarried? Is it because single Christian men are afraid of commitment? God said, “What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom ye have of God, and ye are not your own” (1 Corinthians 6:19). “But if they cannot have self-control, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn” (1 Corinthians 7:9).

Book Synopsis Every Saint A Sinner by : Pearl Solas
Download or read book Every Saint A Sinner written by Pearl Solas and published by Niksen Books. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.” ~ Oscar Wilde Veronica Matthews is on a mission to get the Catholic Church to accept its share of blame for Father Paul Peña’s rape of her son. While Peña himself is remorseless, it’s salt on the wound that the Church she’s always loved won’t admit that institutional failures enabled repeated abuse of its flock. Instead, it acts like every other litigious corporation: offering carefully worded statements of sympathy while refuting any responsibility. By all words and deeds Father Frank Muncy is Peña’s opposite: a humble servant loved by all for his extraordinary empathic gifts, which he puts to use as a drug addiction counselor. But when a grave accusation against Father Frank coincides with the reappearance of a figure from his past, Frank, a fervent believer in God’s ability to forgive and ultimately redeem, chooses to reveal a shocking secret about himself that is sure to ruin his reputation. When a miraculous event connects the lives of Veronica, Paul, and Father Frank, it also poses a great challenge to the Church. Survivors of the clergy abuse scandal are vehemently divided: some feel that for the Church to acknowledge the miracle is to effectively minimize the clergy’s abuse against children, while others believe that the miracle is God’s mysterious creative repurposing of tragedy into a lesson about just how far his love extends—a lesson that will facilitate survivors’ healing. Told with unflinching bravery and compassion, Every Saint a Sinner asks what greater good can be done not just despite but because of man’s sinful nature. It’s an emotionally resonant and morally complex meditation on transformation, empathy, and forgiveness. DISCRETION ADVISED: This work contains scenes of abuse against children and adolescents.

Book Synopsis Saints and Sinners by : Edna O'Brien
Download or read book Saints and Sinners written by Edna O'Brien and published by Hachette+ORM. This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With her inimitable gift for describing the workings of the heart and mind, Edna O'Brien introduces us to a vivid new cast of restless, searching people who-whether in the Irish countryside or London or New York-remind us of our own humanity. In Send My Roots Rain, Miss Gilhooley, a librarian, waits in the lobby of a posh Dublin hotel-expecting to meet a celebrated poet while reflecting on the great love who disappointed her. The Irish workers of "The Shovel Kings" have pipe dreams of becoming millionaires in London, but long for their quickly changing homeland-exiles in both places. "Green Georgette" is a searing anatomy of class, through the eyes of a little girl; "Old Wounds" illuminates the importance of family and memory in old age. In language that is always bold and vital, Edna O'Brien pays tribute to the universal forces that rule our lives.

Book excerpt: From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Looming Tower comes a fascinating book about religion in America, about the passions, triumphs, and failures of the life of faith, revealing stories of grace and despair, sexual scandal and attempted murder. • "Insightful...vivid...beautifully rendered stories." —Chicago Tribune Lawrence Wright's Saints and Sinners are Jimmy Swaggart, who preached a hellfire gospel with rock 'n' roll abandon before he was caught with a, prostitute in a seedy motel; Anton LaVey, the kitsch-loving, gleefully fraudulent founder of the First Church of Satan; Madalyn Murray O'Hair, whose litigious atheism sometimes resembled a brand of faith; Matthew Fox, the Dominican priest who has aroused the fury of the Vatican for dismissing the doctrine of original sin and denouncing the church as a dysfunctional family; Walker Railey, the rising star of Dallas's Methodist church, who, at the pinnacle of his success, was suspected of attempting to murder his wife; and Will Campbell, the eccentric liberal Southern Baptist preacher whose challenges to established ways of thinking have made him a legend in his own time.

Download or read book The Sinner / Saint Devotional written by Daniel Emery Price and published by New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a Psalm for just about everything. Defeated? It's there. Joyful? That's is there too. Angry with God? There are a lot of Psalms for that. Some of them give us great comfort, and some of them make us uncomfortable, but in the end, all of them point us to Jesus. This is a 60-day devotional that deals with us right where we are because that is where the Psalms deal with us. You won't find a bunch of platitudes or Christian fluff. The Psalms are too gritty and honest for that. This devotional is written by and for real sinners in daily need of a God offering real promises of forgiveness, grace, and hope.
