Book Synopsis Liberating Our Dignity Savingour Souls by :
Download or read book Liberating Our Dignity Savingour Souls written by and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lee Butler's own words, "This book is an attempt to answer the question, 'Who are we as African Americans?'" Attempting to answer this question is one way we participate in the works of salvation. Liberating Our Dignity, Saving Our Souls is a study of African American identity aimed at pointing a way out of a current crisis into a new liberation and salvation. Butler combines insights and methodologies from developmental psychology, liberation theology, and African American history to plot a new course for contemporary African Americans to gain a sense of identity that will guide them away from the identity the European and American cultures have traditionally forced upon them. This involves determining identity by personal worth; not by occupation, economic class, or social class.

Download or read book My Philosophy written by John W. Hawkins and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-29 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of a series of essays written by the author following his retirement from Sun Oil Company (now renamed Sunoco) in the 1980s. They are based on a life-changing experience by him at the age of 36 which showed him that all men and women are possessed of unlimited potential to achieve nearly anything that they desire. As a result of this experience he taught an adult education class for two years entitled Realize Your Potential. As quoted on the dedication page to this book, God has made us but little lower than Himself and has placed all things under our feet. An earlier book was published by the author last year entitled What Manner of Man is This? about the life of Jesus. Like St Paul the author agrees that all things work together for good for those who love God and who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28) and that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. (Philippians 4:13). All of these essays as well as the chapters in his previous book may be found on his website at www.johnwhawkins.com. His previous book may also be purchased by going to this website.
Book Synopsis The Seven Stages of an Enlightened Teacher by : Christine Jax
Download or read book The Seven Stages of an Enlightened Teacher written by Christine Jax and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2011-07-16 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Seven Stages of an Enlightened Teacher, Dr. Christine Jax presents a path to great teaching that shows how and why teaching is 'a calling' in the true sense of the words. The book is grounded in the theory that the education of another person is a spiritual endeavor that improves as the inner life of the teacher improves. While avoiding the perils of dogma, doctrine, and politics, Jax has found a way for teachers to understand the role of God and spirituality in the classroom. She does this by focusing on the teacher's strengths and commitment rather than on the student or the subject matter content. Through inspirational stories, concrete instructional strategies, and spiritual practices, this book helps teachers go through stages of enlightenment in order to become energized, fulfilled, and successful at increasing student growth and learning. The Seven Stages of an Enlightened Teacher demonstrates how the individual teacher's gifts and beliefs are the primary elements of great teaching.

Book Synopsis Philosophy in History: How Ideas Have Shaped Our World by : J.R. Wordie
Download or read book Philosophy in History: How Ideas Have Shaped Our World written by J.R. Wordie and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 1012 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What kind of forces have shaped our modern world? Have they been political, economic, scientific, or perhaps even theological? The answer is that all of these forces have been at work, but they have all been the product of ideas, as our views on all of these topics have changed over time. Can ideas be more powerful than armies? Surprisingly, the answer is ‘yes’. History teaches us that nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come. Throughout history, rulers, generals and in our own day even stockbrokers and plutocrats have always imagined themselves to be in charge, with that last group even describing themselves as ‘masters of the universe’. In reality, however, all of these individuals have themselves been the products of ideas, owing their positions entirely to existing trends of thought. How this has come about and how it has delivered for us our present-day world are the themes explained in this book.
Book Synopsis Men Explain Religion to Me by : Mrs. Paul Owczarek
Download or read book Men Explain Religion to Me written by Mrs. Paul Owczarek and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-05 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men Explain Religion to Me By: Mrs. Paul Owczarek Years ago author Mrs. Paul Owczarek attended Mass every Sunday and nearly all holidays for five years with her two children and nearly always put a check in the collection basket. She signed her children up for CCD and sacraments and made a point of waiting for the teacher and filled in when a teacher didn’t show. The moment she married her agnostic, Catholic-school-raised husband and convinced him to come to Mass, she became a non-entity to the Church. The contribution envelopes came addressed to Mr. and Mrs. Husband’s Name, so she wrote this book using the only name the Church recognizes. Mrs. Owczarek noted a grave disorientation and great confusion of many faithful regarding extremely important matters for the life of the Church. Men Explain Religion to Me was inspired by Pope Benedict and the actions of the Vatican, bishops, and clergy for the last eight years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who was Jesus? Was he just a Jew who lived 2000 years ago? Was he God incarnate? Was he the Messiah, a teacher, a healer, a miracle worker or a world savior? He was all of these things, depending on what source you are using to define him. This book tells us about Jesus, perhaps the greatest man who ever lived among us, through a number of different, and often differing sources: (1) The Holy Bible - both Old and New Testaments; (2)modern scholars and historians who make frequent use of documents not discovered until the middle of the last century; (3)from the stories of people who knew him uncovered though the agency of past-life regressions; and 4)from two well-known twentieth century psychics, Edgar Cayce and Levi Dowling who obtained their information from what they called the "akashic records". To supplement the material quoted herein footnotes are provided that list the author and publisher of more than sixty books used in doing research for this book.
Book Synopsis Religionless Religion by : Clyde Edward Brown
Download or read book Religionless Religion written by Clyde Edward Brown and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-06-08 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these perilous times when the very survival of the human species is at stake, there is a desperate need for wisdom to provide guidance. The sacred literature of the world's major religious traditions is a source for such wisdom, but it has largely been misinterpreted and misunderstood, and, thus, instead of being a source for wisdom, it has been a source for confusion and conflict. The ancient scriptures, for the most part, were written in a language which is quite different from ordinary language. It is a mythological language, which is symbolic, and therefore its meaning is hidden. In the Bible, for example, there are many narratives that appear to be historical, but they are history that has been mythologized, and therefore their surface meaning is not their real meaning. Clyde Edward Brown clearly illustrates that the correct interpretation of the world's religious texts would lead to a different concept of religion. Instead of belief in the literal truth of texts that have been misinterpreted, the emphasis would be on having those religious values, such as social and economic justice, which are common to all religions.
