Book Synopsis The Genesis Café by : Robby McAlpine
Download or read book The Genesis Café written by Robby McAlpine and published by Robby McAlpine. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did Jesus mean when he said, “the Kingdom is near?” The Younger and Elder, together with author Robby McAlpine, set out to explore what Kingdom Come meant to Jesus and his first disciples. Drawing on the four Gospels and the book of Acts, as well the writings of George Eldon Ladd, their animated conversations—and run-ins with the crusty Irish Barkeep, the shrewd but wary Proprietress, and the Genesis Café’s irrepressibly artistic Barista—make for a thought-provoking and spiritually invigorating journey of discovery. Join us at the Genesis Café for lattes, laughter, and Kingdom conversations. A warm welcome awaits you. “The characters’ conversations are understandable, entertaining, and full of witty discipleship examples. The Genesis Café is, quite frankly, a work of art. Few books can unpack such deep theological concepts in such readable and practical ways.” ~ Luke Geraty (Lead Pastor, Red Bluff Vineyard, CA)
Book Synopsis The Genesis Cafe by : Robby Mcalpine
Download or read book The Genesis Cafe written by Robby Mcalpine and published by . This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The message of Jesus Christ was called the "Gospel of the Kingdom," and wherever His disciples later went -- as eyewitnesses of His life, death, and resurrection -- they eagerly shared their Messiah's Gospel. Today, there is nothing more foundational to understanding and living our faith than to know and embrace this same Gospel of the Kingdom. So what, exactly, did Jesus mean when He said, "The Kingdom is near, repent and believe the good news"? The Younger & the Elder, together with author Robby McAlpine, set out together to explore what Jesus meant. Drawing on the Gospels and the book of Acts, as well the writings of George Eldon Ladd, their animated conversations (and interactions with the Crusty Irish Barkeep, the shrewd but wary Proprietress, and the irrepressibly artistic Barista) make for a lively, thought-provoking, and spiritually invigorating journey of discovery.
Book Synopsis Genesis: The Deep Origin of Societies by : Edward O. Wilson
Download or read book Genesis: The Deep Origin of Societies written by Edward O. Wilson and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forming a twenty-first-century statement on Darwinian evolution, one shorn of “religious and political dogma,” Edward O. Wilson offers a bold work of scientific thought and synthesis. Asserting that religious creeds and philosophical questions can be reduced to purely genetic and evolutionary components, and that the human body and mind have a physical base obedient to the laws of physics and chemistry, Genesis demonstrates that the only way for us to fully understand human behavior is to study the evolutionary histories of nonhuman species. Of these, Wilson demonstrates that at least seventeen—among them the African naked mole rat and the sponge- dwelling shrimp—have been found to have advanced societies based on altruism and cooperation. Whether writing about midges who “dance about like acrobats” or schools of anchovies who protectively huddle “to appear like a gigantic fish,” or proposing that human society owes a debt of gratitude to “postmenopausal grandmothers” and “childless homosexuals,” Genesis is a pithy yet path-breaking work of evolutionary theory, braiding twenty-first-century scientific theory with the lyrical biological and humanistic observations for which Wilson is known.

Book Synopsis Salman Rushdie and the Genesis of Secrecy by : Vijay Mishra
Download or read book Salman Rushdie and the Genesis of Secrecy written by Vijay Mishra and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salman Rushdie and the Genesis of Secrecy is the first book to draw extensively from material in the Salman Rushdie archive at Emory University to uncover the makings of the British-Indian writer's modernist poetics. Simultaneously connecting Rushdie with radical non-Western humanism and an essentially English-European sensibility, and therefore questions about world literature, this book argues that a true understanding of the writer lies in uncovering his 'genesis of secrecy' through a close reading of his archive. Topics and materials explored include unpublished novels, plays and screenplays; the earlier versions and drafts of Midnight's Children and its adaptations; understanding Islam and The Satanic Verses; the influence of cinema; and Rushdie's turn to earlier archives as the secret codes of modernism. Through careful examination of Rushdie's archive, Vijay Mishra demonstrates how Rushdie combines a radically new form of English with a familiarity with the generic registers of Indian, Arabic and Persian literary forms. Together, these present a contradictory orientalism that defines Rushdie's own humanism within the parameters of world literature.

Book Synopsis The London Restaurant, 1840-1914 by : Brenda Assael
Download or read book The London Restaurant, 1840-1914 written by Brenda Assael and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first scholarly treatment of the history of public eating in London in the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The quotidian nature of eating out during the working day or evening should not be allowed to obscure the significance of the restaurant (defined broadly, to encompass not merely the prestigious West End restaurant, but also the modest refreshment room, and even the street cart) as a critical component in the creation of modern metropolitan culture. The story of the London restaurant between the 1840s and the First World War serves as an exemplary site for mapping the expansion of commercial leisure, the increasing significance of the service sector, the introduction of technology, the democratization of the public sphere, changing gender roles, and the impact of immigration. The London Restaurant incorporates the notion of 'gastro-cosmopolitanism' to highlight the existence of a diverse culture in London in this period that requires us to think, not merely beyond the nation, but beyond empire. The restaurant also had an important role in contemporary debates about public health and the (sometimes conflicting, but no less often complementary) prerogatives of commerce, moral improvement, and liberal governance. The London Restaurant considers the restaurant as a business and a place of employment, as well as an important site for the emergence of new forms of metropolitan experience and identity. While focused on London, it illustrates the complex ways in which cultural and commercial forces were intertwined in modern Britain, and demonstrates the rewards of writing histories which recognize the interplay between broad, global forces and highly localized spaces.
Book Synopsis From the Sin-é Café to the Black Hills by : Eamonn Wall
Download or read book From the Sin-é Café to the Black Hills written by Eamonn Wall and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers often have regarded with curiosity the creative life of the poet. In this study, David Bethea illustrates the relation between the art and life of 19th-century poet Alexander Pushkin, the central figure in Russian thought and culture. Bethea shows how Pushkin, on the eve of this 200th anniversary, still speaks to our time. He indicates how we, as modern readers, might realize the promethean metaphors central to the poet's intensely sculpted life. The Pushkin who emerges from Bethea's portrait is one who, long unknown to English-language readers, closely resembles the original both psychologically and artistically.
Download or read book CAFÉ EDMOVIA written by Edward Ferri, Jr. and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to The Essential CAFÉ EDMOVIA, Cup of Joe poetry for Cup of Joe folks. A poetry book of over 60 published poems plus another 100+ selected poems of informal poetry that is accessible, approachable, easy to read and enjoy. Some haiku and micro poems to start but mostly free verse “Cup of Joe” narrative memoir style poems that tell a story or capture a vignette of life that you, the reader, can identify with, easily visualize and imagine or could have happened to you. You will not find formal poetry like sonnets, villanelles, limericks or a math sheet sestina at the CAFÉ EDMOVIA. If that is what you are looking for, may I suggest you consider a trip up to Highbrow Town to get a ‘Highbucks’ experience where a latte foam art barista can assist you with poetic feet, syllable count, line length, meter and rhyme, etc. That poetry is fulfilling and satisfying for some, but if you want to sit back, select your own “Cup of Joe” poem with a full pot of friendly refills written for the masses of “Cup of Joe” regular grind folks, CAFÉ EDMOVIA is the place for you. Come on in, relax and pour yourself a down to earth “Cup of Joe” poem, light or strong, short or long. No degree in English literature, philosophy or a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree in poetry required for admittance to CAFÉ EDMOVIA. If you have a motorcycle or the desire to acquire one and “two lane” the USA, or savor the memories of having done so, you will enjoy your stay at the CAFÉ EDMOVIA. Having grown up as a “Boomer” in the country on a “non-profit” farm, aka “a farm that never made a profit”, will also enhance your stay. For the Random Reader: The poems in CAFÉ EDMOVIA are organized and arranged with the “random reader” in mind featuring the RANDOM READER ORGANIZATIONAL METHOD (RROM). The RROM has been developed specifically for CAFÉ EDMOVIA and it has two easy key features: Feature One: Poems are arranged from short to long, front to back, to help the random reader quickly find a poem that he or she has time to read. Feature Two: To avoid any contrasting levity, mood and/or tone conflict between adjacent poems and assist the random reader in selecting a poem tone they prefer, there are coffee cup symbols placed above the title of each titled poem. The levity of titled poems is indicated with 1 to 5 coffee cup symbols. One cup = meant to be funny, five cups= meant to be serious. Simple, easy and helpful to the random reader. Cup of Joe Poetry: Accessible easy to read and understand poems from light brew to dark brew that you can enjoy, ponder, have a laugh and a friendly free refill... all without a barista to explain everything. Poems organized for the random reader. Pour your own poem. Fine grind or course grind. Light poetry, dark poetry... you choose. Head scratchers to belly laughers the “Flinger of Zingers” author reflects on his “Boomer” experience down at the CAFÉ EDMOVIA. If high desert vanishing points and the art of roadside motorcycle maintenance run in your caffeinated blood, that’s a plus. HUMOR: Have some, it will help. Enjoy the Easter Eggs... if you spot them.

Book Synopsis Post-Charismatic by : Robby McAlpine
Download or read book Post-Charismatic written by Robby McAlpine and published by Rob McAlpine. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Our weekly Charismatics Anonymous meeting is about to begin. Join me, will you?” It’s like we’re caught between a rock and a hard place. We’re “continuationists.” We believe all the gifts of the Holy Spirit are alive and well and essential for today. But we’ve also been burned by unbiblical teachings, spiritual abuse, and the gaslighting subculture of pneuma-fomo (fear of missing out on the next great move of the Spirit). We yearn for the Spirit’s presence and power in our lives. We don’t want to “throw the baby out with the bathwater,” but the water’s teeming with spiteful pathogens. It’s time to roll up our sleeves and take responsibility for disinfecting the tub. Toxic beliefs have produced spiritual casualties among Pentecostals and charismatics for far too long. Our Kairos moment has arrived. Let’s hone the charismata of discernment.

Book Synopsis Detoxing from Church by : Robby McAlpine
Download or read book Detoxing from Church written by Robby McAlpine and published by Robby McAlpine. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Jesus is building His church, and the gates of hell are no match for it, then why are so many of His followers weary, disillusioned, and ready to abandon church? Mixing humor, modern parables, and lived experience, Detoxing from Church is a redemptive look at recovering after toxic church experiences, and finding our identity anew in Jesus. The 10th anniversary version includes a new collection of Assorted Parables, addressing genuine community, faith in the marketplace, respectful dialogue, and leaving a legacy. “Many books pass through my hands in a given year. Most of them are repeats and rehashes of what’s already been said. Not so with Robby McAlpine’s Detoxing from Church. This is a fresh and engaging discussion for those who have broken with the status quo of modern-day ‘church’ … or who are leaning in that direction.” ~ Frank Viola, (author, Pagan Christianity)

Book Synopsis Food Activism Today by : Donald M. Nonini
Download or read book Food Activism Today written by Donald M. Nonini and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminates how food activism has been taking shape and where it is headed As climate change, childhood obesity, and food insecurity accelerate at an alarming pace, activists around the country are working to address the pressing need for healthy and sustainable solutions to feed the population. Food Activism Today investigates the new approaches food activists are taking as they formulate alternatives to the current unsustainable agro-industrial food system. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted over an eleven-month period in both urban and rural North Carolina, the volume addresses questions about the moral visions of food activists, how class and racial hierarchies infuse some food activism movements, and how food activism relates to climate change and imminent ecological collapse. Exploring food activism around both local and sustainable food production and food security for lower-income people, the volume finds surprisingly little overlap, with the two movements seemingly remaining distinct approaches (at least for now) to issues around the food system, climate change, and access to healthy food choices. As the US moves into an era in which climate change and neoliberal tensions are conjoined in a looming political crisis, Food Activism Today looks at where food activism is headed, the ethics and issues surrounding alternative approaches to food production, and how food production is related to broader issues of climate change.
Book Synopsis Children of the Stone by : Sandy Tolan
Download or read book Children of the Stone written by Sandy Tolan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children of the Stone is the unlikely story of Ramzi Hussein Aburedwan, a boy from a Palestinian refugee camp in Ramallah who confronts the occupying army, gets an education, masters an instrument, dreams of something much bigger than himself, and then inspires scores of others to work with him to make that dream a reality. That dream is of a music school in the midst of a refugee camp in Ramallah, a school that will transform the lives of thousands of children through music. Daniel Barenboim, the Israeli musician and music director of La Scala in Milan and the Berlin Opera, is among those who help Ramzi realize his dream. He has played with Ramzi frequently, at chamber music concerts in Al-Kamandjati, the school Ramzi worked so hard to build, and in the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra that Barenboim founded with the late Palestinian intellectual, Edward Said. Children of the Stone is a story about music, freedom and conflict; determination and vision. It's a vivid portrait of life amid checkpoints and military occupation, a growing movement of nonviolent resistance, the past and future of musical collaboration across the Israeli-Palestinian divide, and the potential of music to help children see new possibilities for their lives. Above all, Children of the Stone chronicles the journey of Ramzi Aburedwan, and how he worked against the odds to create something lasting and beautiful in a war-torn land.
