Book Synopsis When Prayer Takes Place by : J Gerald Janzen
Download or read book When Prayer Takes Place written by J Gerald Janzen and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where in the world was Jesus when he prayed? Where is any one of us when we pray? Since we are embodied creatures, our prayer location can be mapped onto space-time coordinates. Since we are social creatures, our prayers are also situated within our social locations. But do these sets of coordinates exhaustively identify the place that prayer takes when truly entered into? Conversely, can either set totally prevent prayer from taking place there? The studies in When Prayer Takes Place explore dimensions of these issues traced in selected texts from both parts of the Christian Bible.
Book Synopsis Something Happens After Prayer by : Pastor Ade Oyeyemi
Download or read book Something Happens After Prayer written by Pastor Ade Oyeyemi and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifes unexpected difficulties and disappointments can be discouraging when dealt the wrong hand of life. We are often discouraged by the tide the ocean of life sometimes blows in our direction. But, change can be made through prayer. In Something Happens after Prayer, author Pastor Ade Oyeyemi discusses how prayer should be an integral part of every Christians practice. Using a host of Biblical references and examples, Oyeyemi demonstrates that prayer works for those who need forgiveness, for those who need deliverance, and for those who need healing, wisdom, or mercy. He tells how there is no better way to respond to the storms of life than through prayer. Each chapter addresses a spiritual or life topic and offers a selection of appropriate prayers to send to God. Something Happens after Prayer encourages believers to turn to prayer when faith is floundering and the oppression of Satan knocks on the door, when temptations weigh heavy and bad things are happening all around, when we become weak in the face of worry, when marriage comes under attack, and when health is threatened. Great things happen after prayer.

Book Synopsis Prayer in John's Farewell Discourse by : Scott Adams
Download or read book Prayer in John's Farewell Discourse written by Scott Adams and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was reported that a doctoral student at Princeton once asked Albert Einstein, “What is there left in the world for original dissertation research?” He replied by saying, “Find out about prayer. Somebody must find out about prayer.” Since Einstein’s day, a great deal has been written on the topic of prayer in general. However, relatively little has been written about prayer in John’s Farewell Discourse in particular. Therefore, this analysis not only seeks to understand the relationship between Johannine and Jewish, Greco-Roman, and Christian prayer traditions, but also seeks to discern the unique function and application of prayer as it is prescribed in the Farewell Discourse.

Book Synopsis Praying Your Way through Luke's Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles by : Mark G. Boyer
Download or read book Praying Your Way through Luke's Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles written by Mark G. Boyer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-09-24 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prayer, the raising of the heart to God, is the heart of the Christian life. For the author of Luke's Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles, prayer is the habit of being in the presence of God. One of the primary ways Jesus is characterized in Luke's Gospel is that of a pray-er. Likewise in the Acts of the Apostles, the apostles are portrayed being in God's presence. Prayer is the topic of this book; it highlights the passages where Jesus is found praying in the Gospel and where the apostles are found praying in the Acts. From the example Jesus gives in Luke's Gospel, and from the example the apostles give in the Acts of the Apostles, the reader concludes that prayer should be a part of the life of any Christian. If Jesus himself prayed--spoke and listened to God--then how can his followers do any less? This book can be used during the Advent-Christmas Season, the Lenten Season, the Easter Season, and at any time one wants to hone his or her praying skills. This book is especially useful during the period of post-baptismal catechesis for those in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults with its focus on spiritual growth through prayer.

Book Synopsis Prayer in the City by : Patrick A. Desplat
Download or read book Prayer in the City written by Patrick A. Desplat and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume envisions social practices surrounding mosques, shrines and public spaces in urban contexts as a window on the diverse ways in which Muslims in different regional and historical settings imagine, experience, and inhabit places and spaces as »sacred«. Unlike most studies on Muslim communities, this volume focuses on cultural, material and sensuous practices and urban everyday experience. Drawing on a range of analytical perspectives, the contributions examine spatial practices in Muslim societies from an interdisciplinary perspective, an approach which has been widely neglected both in Islamic studies and social sciences.
Book Synopsis Understanding Prayer for the Dead by : James B. Gould
Download or read book Understanding Prayer for the Dead written by James B. Gould and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history Christians have prayed for the dead--both for continual growth of the faithful and for their advancement from purgatory, though not for the deliverance of the unsaved from hell. This book defends all three kinds of prayer. It challenges Protestants, who seldom pray for the dead, to begin doing so--and Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox, who pray only for the Christian dead, to include the unsaved as well. James Gould addresses the biblical credentials of prayer for the dead and provides a historical overview of such prayers from ancient Christianity to the current practice of the three main branches of the church. He also discusses the logical assumptions prayer for the dead requires--that prayer is effective, that the dead are conscious, and that the afterlife involves change--and lays out a theological framework for such prayers. Prayer for the departed raises the most basic of theological questions, matters that go to the center of God's purpose in creating spiritual beings and redeeming sinful humankind. The argument, while revisionary in some respects, is orthodox, ecumenical, and integrative, engaging a range of academic disciplines so as to be biblically accurate, historically informed, and philosophically reasoned.

Book Synopsis The Contemporary British Mosque by : Abdul-Azim Ahmed
Download or read book The Contemporary British Mosque written by Abdul-Azim Ahmed and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Repositioning mosques as social, cultural and political spaces, this book provides new insights on key contemporary debates, the religious identity of Britain, secularisation, the far-right and terrorism, and gender equality. Exploring the story of the British mosque, from house conversions to grand works of architecture, and the role they play in public life, Abdul-Azim Ahmed details the establishment of early mosques during the era of Empire, and the rapid growth in the years following the Second World War. Ahmed takes a sociological approach to this study, drawing on fieldwork and ethnographic case-studies, alongside reviews of databases and historical documents to provide perspectives on the British mosque from the congregants themselves. The Muslim congregation, a poorly understood and often overlooked dimension of religion in Britain, is examined, and issues of diversity, denomination, sacredness, and society are explored.
Book Synopsis Experiencing the Spirit by : Robert Heidler
Download or read book Experiencing the Spirit written by Robert Heidler and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 1999-01-22 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian life is not a set of rituals or teachings, but a relationship with God through His Holy Spirit. No matter how much you know about the Bible, no matter how strong your self-discipline, no matter how hard you try to serve and please God, if your relationship with the Holy Spirit is weak, the Christian life will not work for you. In Experiencing the Spirit, Heidler shows how God wants to unleash His power in your life, to bring you into dynamic, life-giving relationship with the Spirit of God. We were given the Holy Spirit to make the Christian life experiential, to make Jesus real in our lives. So stop struggling to survive from week to week and start living every minute in the power He has given you.

Download or read book What is Prayer? written by K B Napier and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-01-06 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Christian claims to pray. Every pastor tells the congregation that prayer meetings are the 'hub' of local church life. It is the view of the author, after decades as a Christian and pastor, that few Christians understand what prayer is and even fewer do not realise that prayer meetings as we have them today have no sure basis in biblical reality. Indeed, it is the author's researched view that traditional prayer meetings are invalid. We must all test the spirits... the book challenges Christians to do just this by setting church traditions aside and seeing what God really says. Are you truly a faithful believer, or not?
