Book Synopsis The Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes by : Yiu Sing Lúcás Chan
Download or read book The Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes written by Yiu Sing Lúcás Chan and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2012-09-14 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes are often considered significant texts for the Christian moral life. However, most interpretations of these passages either focus on the original meaning of the text or how the texts should impact ordinary living today. In The Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes Yiu Sing Lúcás Chan brings together biblical studies and Christian ethics to look at these foundational texts in a new way. For each passage Chan asks both what the texts meant and what they mean today. He helps readers to carefully study the text’s original meaning, then interpret the text within a sound ethical framework. The Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes is an excellent introduction to key concepts in biblical studies and Christian ethics that combines sound study with warmth and wisdom.
Book Synopsis Ghosties And Ghoulies And Long-Legged Beasties And Things That Go Bump In The Night by : Don Post
Download or read book Ghosties And Ghoulies And Long-Legged Beasties And Things That Go Bump In The Night written by Don Post and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In matters of faith we generally accept what parents, Sunday school teachers, friends or ministers tell us. That was certainly the story of my youth and early years in the ministry. Given the fact that such matters are non-scientific and un-testable by traditional scientific means and that there is a wide range of Christian beliefs, it is perfectly understandable that people are either puzzled or uninterested when trying to make sense of it all. Ghosties & Ghoulies peels away the extraneous ideological debris that encumbers so much Christian thought in order to more clearly reveal the historic God-man Mystery. Undoubtedly some will find a few of their taken-for-granted Christian views challenged. We all need to pull up our theological ideas by the roots from time to time and rethink them. Much of our contemporary Christian beliefs are hand-me-downs from medieval lore and superstition. A Christological thread seeks to tie Ghosties & Ghoulies together. Minimally I hope my thoughts and observations will make one's study of Christianity easier.
Book Synopsis The Leader’S Palette by : Ralph E. Enlow Jr.
Download or read book The Leader’S Palette written by Ralph E. Enlow Jr. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-02-08 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No! Not another book on leadership! That was my first reaction as I received the manuscript of this book. Upon careful reading, I came to realize that Dr. Enlow has artistically captured the essence of leading by influence and has presented it in a clear and colorful way. As a veteran leader, Dr. Enlow speaks from vast experience, but it is not merely subjective anecdotal experience. The book is firmly rooted in serious and current research. As I meet leaders from all over the globe, I am no longer hesitant what to recommend them to read. Riad Kassis, director of Langham Scholars Ministry; international director of the International Council for Evangelical Theological Education This book under-promises and over-delivers with a powerful palette of leadership wisdom. But drop everythingright nowand read the warning in the last chapter on doxological leadership. I am recommending this book to all my clientsand I will likely reread this gem once a year. Its that important. John Pearson, consultant (www.johnpearsonassociates.com) and author of Mastering the Management Buckets

Download or read book Words of Life written by Adam Hamilton and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the Ten Commandments were not just a set of ancient rules, but a guide to experiencing the good life today? “Adam Hamilton is a teacher of the highest order, able to bridge the gap between very old divine teaching and very current human reality.”—Barbara Brown Taylor, author of Always a Guest: Speaking of Faith Far from Home Nearly everyone has heard of the Ten Commandments, the list of “thou-shalt-nots” found in the Bible. Jesus saw these commandments not as onerous burdens, but as guideposts to help us experience a good and beautiful life. These ten ancient “words” were given to us by a loving God who longed to set safe boundaries, create order out of chaos, help communities live peacefully, and protect us—often from ourselves. In this book of Scripture and inspiration, bestselling author Adam Hamilton brings modern eyes to the most important set of ethics in history. He considers the commandments in their historical context, considering the meaning of each commandment in Hebrew, unpacking how Jesus reinterpreted them, and showing how every thou-shalt-not was intended to point to a life-giving “thou shalt.” He also explores how the latest research in science and psychology illuminates these commandments, rightly understood, as a way of ordering one's life beautifully in the present day. In a culture marked by workaholism, materialism, and social media-driven envy, God has given us a time-tested path that leads to gratitude, confidence, and peace. A landmark work from one of our most trusted biblical thinkers, Words of Life is an inspiring, thought-provoking read for anyone seeking to live a meaningful and joyful life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congregations say they want to reach new and younger people, many of whom are simply turned off by church. The big idea is that congregations must be willing to embrace radical ways to connect with new generations. Re-thinking old assumptions is a starting place but more is needed. To really connect congregations have to move beyond and start doing new things that are out of their comfort zones. These authors give ten ways to help you move from just saying what you intend to actually doing it. This book provides tools to help churches re-frame the Good News in non-traditional ways and study questions for church leadership teams.

Book Synopsis Hospitality and Community After Christendom by : Andrew Francis
Download or read book Hospitality and Community After Christendom written by Andrew Francis and published by Authentic Media Inc. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to show how nurturing hospitality in the "discipleship community" leads to growth. It seeks to re-examine the challenge, biblically and in radical Christian movements, presented by the pre-Christendom church in its patterns of hospitality and community to so 're-work' these to be more effective in mission, personally and corporately, after Christendom. The book re-examines Jesus' intentions, the wider biblical material, and congregational practices of sharing Communion as well as drawing on radical church history to demonstrate that despite increasing marginalization, hospitality and community are essential to the church's nature, well-being and mission. It goes on to use many practical examples, as well as leadership strategies to enable congregations to restore hospitality and community to its necessary place. It also provides an accessible theology as well as some original liturgies to underpin Christian life as we move forward after Christendom.
Book Synopsis The Criminalization of Christianity by : Janet Folger
Download or read book The Criminalization of Christianity written by Janet Folger and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a war going on for the future of our country. Most people know that. What they may not know is that if Christians lose, the result won’t merely be enduring public policy we disagree with—it will be a prison sentence for those who oppose it. We’ve all seen the attack coming. First the Supreme Court said kids can’t pray in school. Then the Ten Commandments were ripped from the classrooms. Now pastors are being removed from their pulpits and put in jail for speaking out against homosexuality (Sweden). And things are only getting worse. How in the world did we get to this place? And why is it that Christians are singled out in this assault on morality? Serving as a wake-up call for America, this book will expose the truth that Christianity is being criminalized—and that we must stand up against it now . People in New York are fired from their jobs. Kids in California are suspended from school. Pastors in Sweden are sentenced to prison. Their crime involves nothing more than exercising their religious freedoms. At first the attacks against Christianity were subtle. The Supreme Court ruled that children can’t pray in school. The Ten Commandments were removed from our classrooms and, later, our courtrooms. Now pastors are being imprisoned for speaking out against homosexuality from their own pulpits. How in the world did we get to this place in a “free” and civilized society? And how far will it go? While headlines reveal a gradual undermining of moral values in our society, the truth between those lines silently screams that our very freedom is at stake. Now this provocative book exposes the attack on values for what it is: a pointed war being waged against Christians and the faith they profess. A frequent guest on such programs as 20/20, Hannity and Colmes, Hardball, and Inside Politics, conservative advocate Janet Folger uncovers the hidden anti-Christian agendas that are driving public policy, key court decisions, public school regulations, political correctness in the media, and modern-day censorship. The question is, how will you respond? At a time when upholding traditional values has somehow become synonymous with “intolerance,” will you rise up and defend your religious freedoms —before it’s too late?
Book Synopsis Jesse Jackson And The Politics Of Charisma by : Ernest R. House
Download or read book Jesse Jackson And The Politics Of Charisma written by Ernest R. House and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On January 15, 1975, the Reverend Jesse Jackson was leading a demonstration around the White House to protest the lack of jobs for black youths. As the demonstrators marched, Jackson was shocked to discover that many of the black youths marching with him were drunk or on drugs, many of them ""out of control."" Abruptly, he called a halt to the demonstration and sent the marchers home. Within a few months, Jackson launched a national campaign in the urban high schools of the nation to save the black youths of his country, to get them off drugs and motivate them to work hard, study in school, develop self-discipline, and become successful in American society. A program called PUSH for Excellence, or PUSH/Excel, was an outgrowth of his Operation PUSH organization. Society had no solutions for the black teenagers whom Jackson was trying to help, and his efforts were highly praised, at first, by the media and government officials."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are approaching the last days at breakneck speed, yet multitudes of people are oblivious to it because they do not believe the Bible is credible. Join author Dave Gaffney as he exposes the weakness of dissenters' opposition to the Bible while offering real hope based on the truth of things to come.

He then delves deep into biblical study and the warnings of Daniel, Paul, Jesus and John to illustrate how past and present events will shape the future. Expounding on such topics as America's Christian heritage, the mark of the beast, and the identity of the antichrist, Dave gives straightforward details of what America must do in preparation for perilous times ahead. Presented in five parts—foundational background information, what was, what is, what is to come, and what we should do now—These Things Must Happen is a must-read for anyone who has questions about the end times.
