Book Synopsis Let a Simile be Your Umbrella by : William Safire
Download or read book Let a Simile be Your Umbrella written by William Safire and published by Crown. This book was released on 2001 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "William Safire, America's favorite writer on language, offers a new collection of pieces drawn from his nationally syndicated "On Language" column. Laced with liberal (a loaded word, but apt) doses of Safire's wit, these pieces search culture (high and low), politics, entertainment, and the word on the street to explore what the old but livelier-than-ever English language has been up to lately." "With a keen wit and a sure grasp of usage, Safire dissects trends and traces the origins of colloquialisms that have become second nature to most Americans. He examines everything from whether one delivers "a punch on or in the nose" when offended to whether a disgraced politician should "step down," "step aside," or "stand down." Safire gives us the answers to these and many more quandaries, questions, and complexities of our contemporary lexicon." "As always, Safire is aided by the Gotcha! Gang and the Nitpickers League-readers who claim to have found the language maven making flubs of his own. His comments and observations create a spirited, curious, and scholarly discussion showing that William Safire and his readership are wise in the way of words."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Jesus, Deliver Us by : Willard M. Swartley
Download or read book Jesus, Deliver Us written by Willard M. Swartley and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Deliver us from (the) evil (one)" is the heart's cry from the Lord's Prayer. Evil wears many faces in our modern world. This book connects the Lord's Prayer to troubles of our times, be it attacks from Satan, the wars around the world, the scourge of racism, or the mass shootings of our time. The subtitle of the book identifies the scope. This book blends both deliverance from demonic bondage and witness to the powers in relation to political policies and government. While the book aims to be a biblical theology on these topics, it seeks also to address the praxis: how these evils are confronted through healing-deliverance ministries and what people of God say and do in witness to the powers. The two streams of response to evil are really one as a faithful response to the saving work of the Lord God Almighty through Jesus Christ's victory over Satan, sin, evil, and death. "Love your enemy" confronts evil with power to transform!
Download or read book Tumbled People written by Jacci Turner and published by Bublish, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-05-15 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Brightly illuminating! Tumbled People offers a gracious invitation and a guide through the stages that we can expect to experience on the sacred journey of faith. Jacci not only describes the passages and how they change the way we view God, ourselves, and our life-world, but invites active participation in an authentic process towards spiritual maturation through ancient spiritual practices. A wonderful companion for those who are willing to undertake the journey of faithing throughout a lifetime.” —The Rev. Canon Catherine Gregg, D.Min. “I remember the first time I did a personality test and realized I wasn’t weird but was a person with a unique but recognizable personality. It was revolutionary in my life because it helped me make sense of who and how I was in the world. I think Jacci’s book will accomplish the same thing for those who are deconstructing their beliefs and questioning their faith. This book is like a spiritual map and just may help them realize that they aren’t lost, but that they are on a very clear path of spiritual progress and growth.” —David Hayward, aka the NakedPastor “In an age when everyone is deconstructing and reconstructing their faith experience, Tumbled People offers the tools needed to explore more deeply the stages of faith. And while many books on faith stages outline what that looks like, Jacci takes us deeper as she shares what those shifting stages of growth feel like in real life. This is pure invitation to the reader to explore and experience the journey in companionship with her.” —Marsha Crockett, author of Sacred Conversation: Exploring the Seven Gifts of Spiritual Direction Are you feeling spiritually adrift, burned out, and hopeless? Are the old ways of praying not working for you anymore? I am here to tell you that you are not alone. In fact, you join millions of others who are ready to move, not away from God, but toward deeper spiritual life. In Tumbled People: Deconstructing and Reconstructing Your Faith, you will find hope and encouragement the spiritual changes you are going through are a normal part of the stages of spiritual growth and development. Using personal stories, quotes from mentors, and easy onramp spiritual practices, the author will help you move from burnout to spiritual thriving. Let the healing journey begin!

Book Synopsis Dark Splendor by : Robert P. Vande Kappelle
Download or read book Dark Splendor written by Robert P. Vande Kappelle and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mistakes, disappointments, suffering, and heartbreak can prevent us from growing physically, emotionally, even spiritually, or they can propel us to a new way of life. Building on the contributions of therapists, holistic healers, and spiritual mentors such as Richard Rohr, James Hollis, Elizabeth Lesser, Bill Plotkin, Ken Wilber, and Thich Nhat Hanh, Dark Splendor takes us on a journey into "depth" spirituality, exploring the two halves of life, noting how the perspectives and experiences of the first half of life either leave us frozen emotionally and spiritually, or serve as stepping stones to the vibrant maturity called "the second half of life." This "further journey" is not chronological, nor does one magically stumble upon it at midlife or in times of crisis, though these often serve as catalysts. The second journey is largely unknown today, even by people we consider deeply religious, since most individuals and institutions remain stymied in the preoccupations of the first half of life, establishing identity, creating boundary markers, and seeking security. The first-half-of-life task, while essential, is not the full journey. Furthermore, one cannot walk the second journey with first-journey tools. One needs a new toolkit. Dark Splendor provides the transformational tools that help transport us to the mystery and beauty of the second half of life. The world is more magical, less predictable, more autonomous, less controllable, more varied, less simple, more infinite, less knowable, more wonderfully troubling then we could have imagined being able to tolerate when we were young. --James Hollis God comes to you disguised as your life. --Paula D'Arcy

Book Synopsis Cradle of Life by : J. William Schopf
Download or read book Cradle of Life written by J. William Schopf and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest mysteries in reconstructing the history of life on Earth has been the apparent absence of fossils dating back more than 550 million years. We have long known that fossils of sophisticated marine life-forms existed at the dawn of the Cambrian Period, but until recently scientists had found no traces of Precambrian fossils. The quest to find such traces began in earnest in the mid-1960s and culminated in one dramatic moment in 1993 when William Schopf identified fossilized microorganisms three and a half billion years old. This startling find opened up a vast period of time--some eighty-five percent of Earth's history--to new research and new ideas about life's beginnings. In this book, William Schopf, a pioneer of modern paleobiology, tells for the first time the exciting and fascinating story of the origins and earliest evolution of life and how that story has been unearthed. Gracefully blending his personal story of discovery with the basics needed to understand the astonishing science he describes, Schopf has produced an introduction to paleobiology for the interested reader as well as a primer for beginning students in the field. He considers such questions as how did primitive bacteria, pond scum, evolve into the complex life-forms found at the beginning of the Cambrian Period? How do scientists identify ancient microbes and what do these tiny creatures tell us about the environment of the early Earth? (And, in a related chapter, Schopf discusses his role in the controversy that swirls around recent claims of fossils in the famed meteorite from Mars.) Like all great teachers, Schopf teaches the non-specialist enough about his subject along the way that we can easily follow his descriptions of the geology, biology, and chemistry behind these discoveries. Anyone interested in the intriguing questions of the origins of life on Earth and how those origins have been discovered will find this story the best place to start.

Book Synopsis Life in Deep Time by : J. William Schopf
Download or read book Life in Deep Time written by J. William Schopf and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Darwin wrote his Origin of Species, one of his main concerns was with the perceived shortness of the fossil record of life. Until the work of J. William Schopf and his colleagues, much of this history was thought to be unknowable. This book, through a memoire of Schopf’s personal recollections, documents astonishing discoveries revealing the first 85% of the history of life. These earliest periods of life on Earth emerge as a tale of individual and internationally collaborative exploration told by a scholar whose 60 years of research contributed to the recognition of the richness and diversity which forms the foundation of today’s biodiversity. Key Features Documents, through personal narrative, a paradigm shift is the study of the earliest life Summarizes a fossil record largely unknown until relatively recently Addresses one of Darwin's most troubling concerns about his theory of natural selection Predicts future developments in the study of first life
