Book Synopsis Embrace the Coming Light by : Eddy Ekmekji
Download or read book Embrace the Coming Light written by Eddy Ekmekji and published by Eddy Ekmekji. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advent is a season of memory and hope in which we prepare ourselves to celebrate Jesus' birth and eventual return. During this season we take stock of the darkness in our lives and our world so that we may more fully welcome the light of God at Christmas. Embrace the Coming Light follows four figures from the Gospel of Matthew's account of Jesus' birth: Herod, Joseph, the wise men, and John the Baptist. Readers take a journey that begins in darkness and isolation and ends in light and community. Each week includes a variety of ways to engage Scripture (inductive Bible study, imaginative reading, and lectio divina), a psalm, and writings from other Christians. Embrace the Coming Light also guides readers through a weekly spiritual discipline (a social media fast, solitude, generosity, and adoration) to help deepen the experience of Advent. The devotional has 28 days of readings and prayers and can be used with minor adjustments for Advent in any year.

Download or read book Coming Light written by Des Floody and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been happening to me for the past twenty years. That may sound a little strange but, I have never sat down at any time with the intention of writing a poem. It all began when I attended a funeral one afternoon. As I listened to the funeral service I could not help feeling how little comfort the words brought to me. All that day I could not stop thinking about the words of the service; surely, I thought, there must be better words to say to those who are grieving. That evening I went for a walk, and as I stood by a farm gate looking over the fields, I had the most extraordinary urge to wrote something. I had no idea what I should write; I only know that I must write. So I hurried back home and sat down with a pen and paper. I still had no idea what I should write about. I sat there for about three minutes, still feeling the urge, and then my hand began to write. It is a very strange thing to see your hand writing words on paper which are not n your head. I'm quite used to it now, but on that first occasion I was a bit shocked. The writing that day was the poem 'Think of Me' and as you cans see, they are words which have brought comfort to friends from time to time. All the poems come through in their finished state, I rarely if ever have to change a word. I'm happy to say that years later I still get the urge and the poems are still bringing me messages. It is my sincere wish that others will find messages also. Cover painting- "Comes the Dawn" by Des Floody
Book Synopsis Edward S. Curtis by : Anne Makepeace
Download or read book Edward S. Curtis written by Anne Makepeace and published by National Geographic Society. This book was released on 2002 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bold, sometimes abrasive, forever passionate, Edward Curtis was the quintessential romantic visionary. Curtis struggled through an impoverished boyhood in Minnesota to become a successful society photographer in Seattle. But he soon moved far beyond weddings and studio portraits to his lifes worka multi-volume photographic and ethnogrpahic work on the vanishing world of the North American Indian. Initially, Teddy Roosevelt and J.P. Morgan backed the ambitious project. But as the work stretched over years, Curtis found himself alone with his vision, struggling to finance himself and his crews. The 20-volume North American Indians, finally completed in 1930, cost Curtis his marriage, his friendships, his home, and his health. By the time he died in 1952, he and his monumental work had lapsed into obscurity. In this richly designed book, Anne Makepeace, creator of an award-winning documentary on Curtiss life, reexamines the lasting impact of his work. Curtiss photographs, once ignored, now serve as a link between the romantic past and contemporary Native American communities, who have used his images to reclaim and resurrect their traditions.
Book Synopsis Torches of Light by : Ann Short Chirhart
Download or read book Torches of Light written by Ann Short Chirhart and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As turbulent social and economic changes swept the South in the first half of the twentieth century, education became the flashpoint. Ann Short Chirhart's study is the first to analyze such modernizing events in Georgia. She shows how these changes affected the creation of the state's public school system and cast its teachers in a crucial role as mediators between transformation and tradition. Depicting Georgia's steps toward modernity through teachers' professional and cultural work and the educational reforms they advocated, Chirhart presents a unique perspective on the convergence of voices across the state calling for reform or continuity, secularism or theology, equality or enforced norms, consumption or self-reliance. Although most teachers, black and white, shared backgrounds rooted in localism and evangelical Protestantism, attitudes about race and gender kept them apart. African American teachers, individually and collectively, redefined traditional beliefs to buttress ideals of racial uplift and to press for equal access to public services. White women adapted similar beliefs in different ways to enhance their efforts to train greater numbers of white students for professional and wage labor. Torches of Light is based on such sources as government archives, manuscript collections, and interviews with teachers. As Chirhart examines the ideas over which Georgians clashed, she also shows how those ideas were embodied in New Deal and U.S. Department of Agriculture programs, the political activities of the black Georgia Teachers and Educators Association, and the Georgia legislature's 1949 Minimum Foundation Act. Through two world wars and the Great Depression, teachers sought to reconcile clashing beliefs not only to renegotiate class, race, and gender roles but also to enhance their own professionalism and authority.

Book Synopsis Catastrophobia by : Barbara Hand Clow
Download or read book Catastrophobia written by Barbara Hand Clow and published by Inner Traditions / Bear & Co. This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • Bestselling author Barbara Hand Clow examines legendary cataclysms and shows how we are about to overcome the collective fear they have instilled in us. • The long-awaited follow-up that continues the revelations begun in The Pleiadian Agenda, which has sold more than 60,000 copies. • Explains why, contrary to many prophets of doom, we are actually on the cusp of an era of incredible creative growth. The recent discovery of the remains of ancient villages buried beneath the Black Sea is the latest instance of mounting evidence that many of the "mythic" catastrophes of history--the fall of Atlantis, the Biblical Flood--were actual events. In Catastrophobia Barbara Hand Clow shows that a series of cataclysmic disasters, caused by a massive disturbance in the Earth's crust 11,500 years ago, rocked the world and left humanity's collective psyche permanently scarred. We are a wounded species, and this unprocessed fear, passed from generation to generation, is responsible for our constant expectations of apocalypse, from Y2K to the famed end of the Mayan calendar in 2012. Catastrophobia reveals the insidious global forces that have used these collective fears to control humanity for thousands of years. But we are in the midst of a tremendous shift in the Earth's 26,000-year precessional cycle, and there is every indication that the changes in consciousness over the last 30 years are the beginnings of a collective healing from these deep fears, heralding a new age where we will see that the era of cataclysms is ending and a time of extraordinary creative activity is at hand.
Book Synopsis The Fluency of Light by : Aisha Sabatini Sloan
Download or read book The Fluency of Light written by Aisha Sabatini Sloan and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these intertwined essays on art, music, and identity, Aisha Sabatini Sloan, the daughter of African American and Italian American parents, examines the experience of her mixed-race identity. Embracing the far-ranging stimuli of her media-obsessed upbringing, she grasps at news clippings, visual fragments, and lyrics from past and present in order to weave together a world of sense. Art in all forms guides the author toward understanding concepts like blackness, jazz, mortality, riots, space, time, self, and other without falling prey to the myth that all things must exist within a system of binaries. Recalling her awkward attempts at coolness during her childhood, Sabatini Sloan evokes Thelonious Monk’s stage persona as a metaphor for blackness. Through the conceptual art of Adrian Piper, the author is able to understand what is so quietly menacing about the sharp, clean lines of an art gallery where she works as an assistant. The result is a compelling meditation on identity and representation.
Book Synopsis Something's Coming! Universal Cities of Light, Love, and Healing! by : Genii Townsend
Download or read book Something's Coming! Universal Cities of Light, Love, and Healing! written by Genii Townsend and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-16 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Something's Coming..". and it's good news for a change! In an era when many are focused on end-of-the-world doom and gloom, along comes an exciting book to uplift humanity, reminding us that we are not alone and that help is already on the way. In Something's Coming author Genii Townsend, a trans-audio visionary, shares information kept secret for 25 years. Her "inner-vision journeys" began in 1982 when her husband, Rev. William Townsend, a Religious Science minister, brought forth drawings of Cities of Light while in meditation. After his passing, Genii Townsend continued where he left off and the city visits are now recorded in this book. No development on earth is more fascinating than the advent of the Cities of Light, and the discussion can be traced to the middle of the last century. What, exactly, is a City of Light? Much like Atlantis, it is a portal where the star brothers and sisters can come for exchange of cultural ideas, technology, art and healing. The book describes it as "the unfoldment of a very large universal plan. It is going beyond the universe to...an interdimensional portal of love where beings from everywhere can experience a community of love." The Cities of Light can be glimpsed with our physical eyes but are more apparent to our Third and Fourth Eyes. They are "crystal cities of the future, places of peace and harmony where love prevails." As real places in the higher dimensions, people can "anchor new realities and new dimensional realities within the 3rd dimension" as an expanded experience. They are also for advanced healing through light, sound and color-"examples of what can be done by using our technologies for the good of all." The book describes the purpose and plans for a City of Light in Sedona, Arizona-a prototype for 13 more cities to appear around the planet "any day now." Included are diagrams and descriptions of advanced technologies, prophecies, discussion of the need for spiritual awakening and enlightenment on earth, and details of the city's amazing features. Genii paints a picture for readers of what it's like to enter such a place after 100+ visits she has made within the City of Light. "Imagine entering a place of such beauty that it makes you an instant believer that anything is possible, like entering a 5-story-high gate that is encoded with your personal beliefs that makes you feel like you just came home. "Imagine experiencing healing techniques in light modules where no drugs, knives or needles can sever the body's electrical lines. Imagine a Memory Manor building where you can release past memory hurts with no emotion attached and a Fountain of Light that makes you feel physically and mentally great, and sitting on benches that massage the body. Imagine an Empowerment Emporium where you can balance your emotions and a "Birth-aterium" where babies are born laughing with the mother who had no anesthesia, no pain and the only crying is for the pure joy of the experience. And finally, imagine a stadium-size building called The Embassy of Peace Headquarters where "Light Beings gather to help bring forth peace on this earth." The Cities of Light function to heal us and raise our vibrations and consciousness. They are delightful places to be, they are places where peace reigns already. They exist in the Fifth Dimension and higher and are destined to play a large role in the transfer of learning and technology for us in the new Golden Age. Townsend writes: "Will it enhance peoples' lives? I think the common words will be 'OH MY GOD!' I ask you to hold the vision in your heart. Make no mistake, this planet will glow in love like never before." The stage is ready, the scenes inside these pages invite you to witness what is coming about, and this is your invitation, page by page, before the magic happens. Get your copy and get ready for the greatest show on earth. This book will show you how you can enter the city portals and change your reality forever.

Download or read book Ordinary Light written by Tracy K. Smith and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist From the dazzlingly original Pulitzer Prize-winning poet hailed for her “extraordinary range and ambition” (The New York Times Book Review): a quietly potent memoir that explores coming-of-age and the meaning of home against a complex backdrop of race, faith, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter. The youngest of five children, Tracy K. Smith was raised with limitless affection and a firm belief in God by a stay-at-home mother and an engineer father. But just as Tracy is about to leave home for college, her mother is diagnosed with cancer, a condition she accepts as part of God’s plan. Ordinary Light is the story of a young woman struggling to fashion her own understanding of belief, loss, history, and what it means to be black in America. In lucid, clear prose, Smith interrogates her childhood in suburban California, her first collision with independence at Harvard, and her Alabama-born parents’ recollections of their own youth in the Civil Rights era. These dizzying juxtapositions—of her family’s past, her own comfortable present, and the promise of her future—will in due course compel Tracy to act on her passions for love and “ecstatic possibility,” and her desire to become a writer. Shot through with exquisite lyricism, wry humor, and an acute awareness of the beauty of everyday life, Ordinary Light is a gorgeous kaleidoscope of self and family, one that skillfully combines a child’s and teenager’s perceptions with adult retrospection. Here is a universal story of being and becoming, a classic portrait of the ways we find and lose ourselves amid the places we call home.
