Book excerpt: Praise for the Ariel Kafka series: "Ariel Kafka wins the award for most intriguing name for a fictional detective, and it suits this impressively labyrinthine mystery series." —Time Out "The clever combination of classic Jewish themes with the traditions of Nordic crime makes for a refreshing tale with wide appeal. And the subtle humor makes it even better." —Booklist "Professional responsibility and ethnic affiliation clash in Nykänen's intriguing first novel. The resolution will satisfy noir fans." —Publishers Weekly The third in the Ariel Kafka series. There are two Jewish cops in all of Helsinki. One of them, Ariel Kafka, a lieutenant in the Violent Crime Unit, identifies himself as a policeman first, then a Finn, and lastly a Jew. Kafka is a stubborn, dedicated policeman with wry sense of humor, always willing to risk his career to get an answer. A woman's body scrawled with religious texts is found in a Helsinki apartment. It turns out she wasn't murdered: the body was stolen from the morgue. The body is stolen again, and this time is immolated in a funeral pyre in Helsinki's Central Park. Kafka finds himself investigating a series of crimes leading to the enigmatic Christian Brotherhood of the Holy Vault. But before he can solve the puzzle, more than one Brother must pay for past sins with his life. Harri Nykänen, born in Helsinki in 1953, is a prize-winning mystery writer. This is the third in the Ariel Kafka series. It exposes the local underworld through the eyes of an eccentric Helsinki police inspector.

Book Synopsis The Ceremonies of the Roman Rite Described by : Adrian Fortescue
Download or read book The Ceremonies of the Roman Rite Described written by Adrian Fortescue and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-01-29 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This book, a classic guide to the celebration of the Church's ancient Gregorian Rite in the English-speaking world, will serve priests and seminarians of the twenty-first century-just as it served so many priests of the twentieth-in their pastoral mission, which now necessarily includes familiarity with and openness to the use of the older form of the sacred liturgy. I happily commend it to the clergy, seminarians and laity as a reliable tool for the preparation and celebration of the liturgical rites authoritatively granted by the Holy Father in Summorum Pontificum. 'I congratulate the distinguished liturgical scholar, Dr. Alcuin Reid, for his care and precision in ensuring that this revised edition conforms to the latest authoritative decisions with regard to these liturgical rites. As Pope Benedict XVI wrote in his letter which accompanied Summorum Pontificum: "In the history of the liturgy there is growth and progress, but no rupture." The Gregorian Rite is today a living liturgical rite which will continue its progress without losing any of its riches handed on in tradition. For as the Holy Father continued, "What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful. It behoves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church's faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place." May this book assist the Church of today and of tomorrow in realising Pope Benedict's vision.' Darío Cardinal Castrillón Hoyos President, Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei This fifteenth edition, revised in the light of Pope Benedict XVI's reforms and expanded and corrected throughout, includes a new chapter on the music of solemn and sung Mass as well as clarifications of questions that have arisen in the light of recent experience. It gives descriptions of the rites of pontifical, solemn and low Mass, Vespers, the liturgical year including Holy Week, the sacraments, Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, funerals, episcopal visitation and more.

Book Synopsis Walking in the Sacred Manner by : Mark St. Pierre
Download or read book Walking in the Sacred Manner written by Mark St. Pierre and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walking in the Sacred Manner is an exploration of the myths and culture of the Plains Indians, for whom the everyday and the spiritual are intertwined, and women play a strong and important role in the spiritual and religious life of the community. Based on extensive first-person interviews by an established expert on Plains Indian women, Walking in the Sacred Manner is a singular and authentic record of the participation of women in the sacred traditions of Northern Plains tribes, including Lakota, Cheyenne, Crow, and Assiniboine. Through interviews with holy women and the families of women healers, Mark St. Pierre and Tilda Long Soldier paint a rich and varied portrait of a society and its traditions. Stereotypical images of the Native American drop away as the voices, dreams, and experiences of these women (both healers and healed) present insight into a culture about which little is known. It is a journey into the past, an exploration of the present, and a view full of hope for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witness the rebirth of India in an unforgettable love story of Pearly Ruby Princessa, spun around the fascinating background of the Coronation of King Edward V11 in 1902, his spectacular State Durbar and the reign of maharajas, nawabs, and aristocrats in the Indian princely states. Baby Pearly was born towards the turn of 19th century. She arrived precisely after the stroke of midnight under the full moon. The time of her birth was as ominous for her English born mother and aunt residing in India as it was for the British Empire. The birth of Pearly symbolized many things to many people, British and Indian, but most importantly it symbolized change a beginning and an end. For her native Indian parents, her birth marked the much hoped for new beginning of Swatantra, the self-rule for the land of India. For her British counterpart, it marked the final chapter the end of the British raj. It is a tale of two nations entering an era of new beginnings, coinciding with the story of Princessa. The story is woven with powerful imagery and amazing riddles. It is a tale of mystery, intrigue and obsession exploring the magical connection between the physical and the metaphysical; matter and spirit; good and evil; demon and divine and ultimately, the undeniably compelling connection between the power of forgiveness and the gift of deliverance- the deliverance from the cycle of life and death, leading to the state of NIRVANA...the ultimate peace.

Download or read book Holy Smoke written by Casey Church and published by Cherohala Press. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church argues that discipleship among Native peoples is best undertaken as a spiritual journey that has at its core biblical instruction and mentoring by individuals and families that model a lifestyle that reflects transformation in Jesus Christ. When accompanied by the 'contextual' use of Native rites such as the Sweat Lodge Ceremony, the Pipe Ceremony, and Powwow dancing and singing with the drum, participants who go through these 'rites of passage' experience an increased sense of spiritual well-being and self-esteem through this authentic Native expression of their Christian faith. The book illustrates deep reflection and integration of biblical teaching in the preparation and practice of these Native rites, transforming the old embedded meanings of these rites, while retaining their distinctive familiarity for participants. Church shows how the integration of biblical instruction, the practice of a biblical lifestyle, and contextual sacred and ceremonial rites in alcohol recovery and family camp ministries have together led to recovery and spiritual development in Christ. We commend this book to anyone who has a serious commitment to making disciples in Native American communities.- Sherwood Lingenfelter, Senior Professor, and Judith Lingenfelter, Affiliate Professor, Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, CA. This book is ... both authentic and, equally importantly, theologically and biblically sound. In these pages you will read of a journey that many have longed to take and are now being guided along through the life and lens of a gifted practitioner and his family. -Terry LeBlanc (PhD, Asbury Theological Seminary) is the Executive Director of Indigenous Pathways and is the founding Chair and current Director of NAIITS. Casey Church doesn't just write about how to do contextualization, he lives it. He and his amazing family travel, sing, pray, worship and dance their prayers. I have watched them over the years ... -Cheryl Bear (DMin, The King's Seminary) is a musician, singer, pastor and evangelist and conference speaker When we had our first national Native college student conference (Would Jesus Eat Frybread) in 2012, the most pressing questions students were asking was 'Can I be Native and Christian?' In 2016, it seems they are no longer asking 'Can I?' But 'How can I be Native and Christian?' In Holy Smoke, Church shares from his life experience - both personal and practical - in ways that will help young Natives who are striving to seek Jesus while honoring their cultures and traditions to answer this question for themselves. -Megan Murdock Krischke, Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma, National Native Ministry Coordinator for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship If you are involved in outreach to the indigenous community, Dr. Church's book, Holy Smoke, should be on your list of required reading. I have worked with Casey for 16 years and not only do I consider him a great friend but also a mentor in things Native. -Duane Bristow, Executive Director, Navajo Brethren In Christ Mission and Pastor, First Nations Gathering To walk in the liminal spaces of rituals and ceremony can lead to healing, transformation and innovation. Casey is calling Native leaders back to the traditional way of growth through life stages by the Rites of Passage. Rituals and ceremonies can be contextualized for the Native people who walk with Jesus. Wiconi's Family Camp and The Brethren in Christ Ministry are two organizations that have led the way through the liminal space of contextualization. -Donnie Begay, Nations Ministry Executive Director

Download or read book The Enlightened written by Linda Nera and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Source chose a slightly withdrawn but impeccably devoted ten-year old orphaned boy to carry on the fight against the evil rebel angel Ladimer and his league of dark creatures from the doomed planet of Askaran. With help from both holy citizens of the Perfect Place and the Earth Dominion, the young warrior with his assistant Modesto, anonymously goes through every encounter, each one becoming more challenging as his resolve to fulfill his destiny as the Enlightened is constantly tested. The story though steeped with obvious references to Biblical characters and settings derived from several local folklore, skillfully integrates the thrill of adventure with lessons from commonly held religious values. The result is an atypical spiritual journey that promises to inspire even the unreligious.
