Download or read book Joyfully Just written by Kamilah Majied and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2024-04-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberating meditation practices drawn from Black cultural traditions and Buddhism to bring forth courage, transform grief, defeat injustice, and manifest joy Many of us have come to think about justice as a “struggle,” a cause to fight for in the world. But what if the work of justice begins within? What if there were a way to find joy in the journey toward justice? With Joyfully Just, Dr. Kamilah Majied offers an inspiring and unique approach to overcoming injustice with joy, courage, and playful curiosity. She shares many of the insights and experiences that gave rise to her leadership as a joyful champion of contemplative approaches to mental health and social justice. Drawing on timeless wisdom from Buddhism and Black traditions, Majied invites us to play with different ways of being just toward ourselves and all life around us. Here, we discover how to: • Play with creative and artistic practices to develop critical consciousness and become more mindful, inclusive, and anti-racist • Explore language as a pathway to liberation and justice • Unlearn and heal from white supremacy, internalized racism, and other forms of oppression and bias By engaging with these practices, we are able to access the freedom that comes with tearing off the restrictive habits of privilege and internalized oppression as we allow our bodies, hearts, minds, and souls to be liberated, unafraid, and agentive in the world.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Download or read book Joy written by Ashley Kunze and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all naturally desire a life that feels light, full, and happy. But how do you get that happy feeling to stick? Maybe you try blocking out the negative feelings—or rushing through unhappiness to feel better as soon as possible. Maybe you try telling yourself that you are already happy—or you pretend to be. Maybe you discredit your desire for a full life and tell yourself that happiness is impossible. Your heart was made for joy—happiness that sticks. Perhaps trying to feel happy is actually standing in your way of true joy. Maybe negative emotions do not mean that you are further from joy but closer to it. Maybe it is OK to experience the painful feelings and walk through them. If that elusive happiness is on this side of the journey, then perhaps joy—real, deep joy—is on the other side. It is God’s work to lead you through the journey to joy. Your only job is to follow. This daily devotional includes 50 Bible passages and reflections that discuss joy as well as four short stories from my journey. May these pages give you space to notice yourself as you begin the journey to experiencing true joy.
Book Synopsis Joy Rides through the Tunnel of Grief by : Jessica Hendry Nelson
Download or read book Joy Rides through the Tunnel of Grief written by Jessica Hendry Nelson and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joy Rides through the Tunnel of Grief is a fresh and ferocious memoir-in-essays that maps the boundaries of love, language, and creative urgency. When Nelson’s father dies from an accident caused by complications from alcoholism, she knows immediately she has inherited his love—that it left his body, traveled through the air, and entered her own. And so, she needs a place to put it. She needs to know what to do with it, how not to waste it, how to make something with it, how to honor it and put language to it. So, she places it with her brother, Eric, whose opioid addiction makes his death feel always imminent. With her partner, Jack, together for fifteen years. With her exhausted, grieving mother, her best friend Jessie, women at the gym she’s never had the courage to speak to, but loves completely. But mostly, she places it with her future child, the one she does not yet have but deeply wants. The child who is both the question of love—and the answer to it. So, when Jack suddenly confesses that he does not want to have children—not with her, not ever—the someday vessel for her boundless and insatiable love hunger swiftly disappears, taking with it a fundamental promise of her life: motherhood. Joy Rides through the Tunnel of Grief catalyzes from this place. Fluidly navigating through past, present, and future, Nelson asks: Where does her desire to have a child come from? How does wonder charge and change a life? Are the imperatives to make art and to make a child born from the same searching place? Are they both masked and misguided attempts to thwart death? Nelson investigates the tremulous makings and unmakings of our most intense and fragile bonds—family, friends, lovers—with searing insight, humor, and tenderness.
Book Synopsis Discipleship Parenting by : Kim Cameron-Smith

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Catholic parents, we have one fundamental mission: to raise children who know and love God, and who are so in love with Christ that they can't help but share his message. We are called not only to be disciples ourselves, but to be discipleship parents, evangelizing our children so they become disciples, too. That sounds great, but we know this is not always easy. The culture often stands in the way of our raising whole and holy children. Sometimes our own failures, wounds, and weaknesses make it difficult to pour ourselves fully into the mission. Even if we are working to plant the seeds of faith, how can we ensure that the soil is cultivated so the seeds can grow and flourish? In Discipleship Parenting, Kim Cameron-Smith provides tools and insights to help parents foster seven ideal growing conditions in the home: Love Balance Play Merciful Discipline Empathy Radiant Faith A Strong Marriage Raising children to know and love Christ, and to share that love with others, is the most important work we will ever do.

Book excerpt: Joy at work—why settle for anything less? In Joy Works: Empowering Teams in the New Era of Work, Alex Liu delivers an engaging blueprint for ensuring people feel safe and inspired at work. Liu, the managing partner and chairman of Kearney, asks, "Why would we settle for anything less than joy at work?" In the book, you'll find a step-by-step action plan for approaching joy at work using the three key drivers that determine employee happiness—people, praise, and purpose—and learn how to implement that plan for maximum results and maximum joy. The author demonstrates how to create more joy for your people at work, in both virtual and in-person environments, as well as how to incorporate joyfulness even in periods of dramatically heightened stress. He calls on his years of conversations with leaders around the world, both as an advisor to executives and through his popular podcast, Joy@Work. Readers will learn from a diverse collection of leaders, from psychologists, academics, athletes, nonprofit and board leaders, and a Broadway producer, to leaders at companies including HPE, Cisco, T-Mobile, SAP, and UPS. In the dialogues and research, readers will also find: An introduction to "ikigai," a Japanese concept meaning "reason for being"—a framework we can all use to find joy and meaning in our work An investigation into the link between social justice and joy, using conversations with leaders who have committed to making social progress a priority A new perspective on how the next generation will view joy at work, the Great Reflection, and the shifting balance of power in work cultures In-depth discussions about people, purpose, and praise: the three key elements in building a joyful work experience A call for more reflective leadership—a new approach to power leaders through uncertain and challenging times Joy Works is an essential handbook for anyone who wants to create more joy in their work — the leaders who want to shift corporate cultures, managers who are facing pressures to innovate, young people who are adamant that they can have a life and a career that's centered around joy and meaning, and anyone who thinks "joy at work" is a near-term possibility, not an oxymoron. This guide to the changing reality and opportunity of work belongs in the libraries of anyone interested in creating a more engaging and productive virtual, hybrid, or in-person workspace. Let's build more joy.
Download or read book Signs & Wonders written by Paul Alexander and published by Wiley + ORM. This book was released on 2009-03-27 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of Christ at the Checkpoint analyzes the appeal of Pentecostalism, from the belief in miracles to tongue-talking to the prosperity gospel. Combining personal stories and sound scholarship, Paul Alexander, a young scholar with a Pentecostal background, examines the phenomenal worldwide success of Pentecostalism. While most other works on the subject are either for academics or believers, this book speaks to a broader audience. Interweaving stories of his own and his family’s experiences with an account of Pentecostalism’s history and tenets, Alexander provides a unique and accessible perspective on the movement. “When I teach about religion in the current world situation the most frequent question I get is ‘But why is Pentecostalism growing so quickly and in so many places?’ I try to explain, but after reading this book my answer can now be much more complete and well grounded. This is the book that answers that question. It is fair, accurate, balanced, and written in an accessible style. No one seriously interested in the fastest growing Christian movement in the world can afford to miss it.” —Harvey Cox, Harvard Divinity School, author of Common Prayers
