Download or read book We Cry Justice written by Liz Theoharis and published by Broadleaf Books . This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible proclaims justice and abundance for the poor. Yet these powerful passages about poverty are frequently overlooked and misinterpreted. Enter the Poor People's Campaign, a movement against racism, poverty, ecological devastation, militarism, and religious nationalism. In We Cry Justice, Liz Theoharis, co-chair of the campaign, is joined by pastors, community organizers, scholars, low-wage workers, lay leaders, and people in poverty to interpret sacred stories about the poor seeking healing, equity, and freedom. In a world roiled by poverty and injustice, Scripture still speaks. Organized into fifty-two chapters, each focusing on a key Scripture passage, We Cry Justice offers comfort and challenge from the many stories of the poor taking action together. Read anew the story of the exodus that frees people from debt and slavery, the prophets who denounce the rich and ruling classes, the stories of Jesus's healing and parables about fair wages, and the early church's sharing of goods. Reflection questions and a short prayer at the end of each chapter offer the opportunity to use the book devotionally through a year. The Bible cries for justice, and we do too. It's time to act on God's persistent call to repair the breach and fight poverty, not the poor.
Book Synopsis The Crying Book by : Heather Christle
Download or read book The Crying Book written by Heather Christle and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bestselling "lyrical, moving book: part essay, part memoir, part surprising cultural study" is an examination of why we cry, how we cry, and what it means to cry from a woman on the cusp of motherhood confronting her own depression (The New York Times Book Review). Heather Christle has just lost a dear friend to suicide and now must reckon with her own depression and the birth of her first child. As she faces her grief and impending parenthood, she decides to research the act of crying: what it is and why people do it, even if they rarely talk about it. Along the way, she discovers an artist who designed a frozen–tear–shooting gun and a moth that feeds on the tears of other animals. She researches tear–collecting devices (lachrymatories) and explores the role white women’s tears play in racist violence. Honest, intelligent, rapturous, and surprising, Christle’s investigations look through a mosaic of science, history, and her own lived experience to find new ways of understanding life, loss, and mental illness. The Crying Book is a deeply personal tribute to the fascinating strangeness of tears and the unexpected resilience of joy.
Download or read book Why Do We Cry? written by Fran Pintadera and published by Kids Can Press Ltd. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoughtful, poetic book uses metaphors and beautiful imagery to explore the reasons for our tears. In a soft voice, Mario asks, “Mother, why do we cry?” And his mother begins to tell him about the many reasons for our tears. We cry because our sadness is so huge it must escape from our bodies. We cry because we don’t understand the world, and our tears go in search of an answer. Most important, she tells him, we cry because we feel like crying. And, as she shows him then, sometimes we feel like crying for joy. This warm, reassuring hug of a book makes clear that everyone is allowed to cry, and that everyone does.
Book Synopsis For Those Tears He Died by : Dolores Reding
Download or read book For Those Tears He Died written by Dolores Reding and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-11-22 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about my view of the tears shed by God and mankind in the process of deciding if we want to accept the free gift of eternal life God gave us through his son, or go our own way and spend eternity with Satan. God has put a burden on my heart for people who do not want to give their lives to Jesus and that do not want to let the Holy Spirit guide them through their life here on earth. I spent about half of my life without Jesus and over half with him and I am here to tell you it is much better with Jesus than without him. This book is my idea of how many tears God cried while hoping the human race would decide to be obedient. But after thousands of years of hoping, he realized the human race just cant seem to get it together so he went ahead with his plan to save the human race. Jesus Christ was born for the sole purpose of dying a horrible, horrible death to pay for all the things we do that do not please God. I hope this book will help people to see that without God we are nothing. We are in the end times and we need to decide, do we want to give our life to God or do we want to give our life to Satan? I hope and pray we all make the right decision.

In this simple book, she uses her own personal experiences to show how life's hardships can be re-languaged and revisioned to become lessons that teach us as we grow, heal, and learn to love. The pain of the past does not have to be today's reality. Iyanla Vanzant is an example of how yesterday's tears become the seeds of today's hope, renewal, and strength.
Book Synopsis Anthropological Conversations by : Caroline B. Brettell
Download or read book Anthropological Conversations written by Caroline B. Brettell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural anthropologists can be an intellectually adventurous crowd: open—even eager—to building bridges across disciplines in the name of understanding human behavior and the human experience more broadly. In this first-of-its-kind book, Caroline Brettell explores the cross-disciplinary conversations that have engaged cultural anthropologists both past and present. Brettell highlights a handful of conversations between the discipline of anthropology on the one hand and history, geography, literature, biology, psychology and demography on the other. She also pinpoints how these exchanges address three enduring issues of anthropological concern: the temporal and the spatial dimensions of human experience; the scientific and the humanistic dimensions of the anthropological enterprise; and the individual and the group/population as units of analysis in research. Anthropological Conversations offers detailed accounts of particular ethnographic methodologies and findings (and the theoretical trends informing them) as a means of grasping the big-picture issues. Brettell clearly shows that, by engaging with other fields, cultural anthropologists have been able to think more deeply about what they mean by culture; through this book, she invites readers to continue the conversation.

Download or read book The Unit written by Ninni Holmqvist and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2009-06-09 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I enjoyed The Unit very much...I know you will be riveted, as I was." —Margaret Atwood on Twitter A modern day classic and a chilling cautionary tale for fans of The Handmaid's Tale. Named a BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH by GQ. “Echoing work by Marge Piercy and Margaret Atwood, The Unit is as thought-provoking as it is compulsively readable.” —Jessica Crispin, NPR.org Ninni Holmqvist’s uncanny dystopian novel envisions a society in the not-so-distant future, where women over fifty and men over sixty who are unmarried and childless are sent to a retirement community called the Unit. They’re given lavish apartments set amongst beautiful gardens and state-of-the-art facilities; they’re fed elaborate gourmet meals, surrounded by others just like them. It’s an idyllic place, but there’s a catch: the residents—known as dispensables—must donate their organs, one by one, until the final donation. When Dorrit Weger arrives at the Unit, she resigns herself to this fate, seeking only peace in her final days. But she soon falls in love, and this unexpected, improbable happiness throws the future into doubt.
Book Synopsis Pruned to Be Fruitful by : Jacinth M. Dunkley
Download or read book Pruned to Be Fruitful written by Jacinth M. Dunkley and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living a life of great expectation and spending quality time in the Word of God will open our hearts and minds to the supernatural things that God has in store for each of His children. When we open our hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Devil will view us as a threat, and then he will do everything in his power to destroy us. Many think this is the end of all our troubles, and in a sense this is true, for we dont have to carry the heavy burdens any more. The Bible tells us the battles belong to the Lord; we have seen how God fought for the patriots, and He is the same God today, for He never changes; He will do the same for us. This book was written to encourage everyone faced with any form of difficulty and having a desire to grow spiritually. The testimonies shared are experiences we will face at some time in our lives. It is not the amount of trials we overcome that matters; it is the way in which we overcome these trials that reflects who we are as Christians. I reflect back to when Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil. Having all power given unto Him to do what is right, Jesus Christ remain humbled, speaking only the Word of God. The Bible teaches that the Word of God is powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, but unless you have had a personal experience with it, the powerful effect of Gods word will remain unknown to you. The inspiration written in this book will enhance your spiritual walk and prepare you for advanced growth. If you are walking in spiritual deficit, be encouraged, for it will be over by the time you finish reading this book. I have seen too many victories to let fear, doubt, and defeat have the last word. God is ablemore than able. Turn the pages, and find out for yourself!

Book excerpt: Art Does art leave you cold? And is that what it's supposed to do? Or is a painting meant to move you to tears? Hemingway was reduced to tears in the midst of a drinking bout when a painting by James Thurber caught his eye. And what's bad about that? In Pictures and Tears, art historian James Elkins tells the story of paintings that have made people cry. Drawing upon anecdotes related to individual works of art, he provides a chronicle of how people have shown emotion before works of art in the past, and a meditation on the curious tearlessness with which most people approach art in the present. Deeply personal, Pictures and Tears is a history of emotion and vulnerability, and an inquiry into the nature of art. This book is a rare and invaluable treasure for people who love art. Also includes an 8-page color insert.

Book Synopsis The Blackest Shade of Blue by : Alexandra Skovera
Download or read book The Blackest Shade of Blue written by Alexandra Skovera and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Alura, sirens take part in the Dive; an ancient ritual that places them in one of three tribes; the Azora, the Voeks, or the Draven. Each tribe wields different powers and abilities, some stronger than others. A siren will know which one they join by the color of their hair, for it will change to either, white, gold, or black. For Amaris, the Dive has terrified her ever since she was a youngling. From watching fellow sirens take part and her friend Jessenia, Amaris only sees what the Dive takes away. To her, the Dive strips a siren of their personality and vibrance of life. No matter how much Amaris tries to avoid it she cannot. But unlike her fellow sirens, when Amaris breaks the surface, her hair isn’t the color of any of the three tribes. It’s a shimmering blue. If a siren isn’t placed in one of the three tribes, they no longer have a place in Alura. Amaris quickly finds herself Adrift---the first siren sent to live amongst the humans in centuries. On the night she is forced to leave, she receives a message from her friend Jessenia, who is part of the Draven, a coven of sirens who have the gift of Seeing. Jessenia tells her that she must seek out the Four Mothers, powerful beings who are part of the Divine. Now, suddenly an outcast, Amaris is forced to start a search she has no clue where to start from. But when an unfortunate encounter leads her to Ford, a warlock and a sirens sworn enemy, Amaris has no choice but to turn to him as a guide. Especially when he reveals he has the information she needs. As Amaris and Ford travel together to gather answers, Amaris begins to question everything she thought to be true. And as they get closer to finding the Mothers, Amaris begins to wonder if she was sent Adrift for her own protection or for the protection of Alura.
