Book Synopsis Parables of the Christ-Life by : I. Lilias Trotter
Download or read book Parables of the Christ-Life written by I. Lilias Trotter and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-17 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lilias Trotter's Parables of the Christ-life was first published by Marshall Brothers, London, and printed by E. Nister of Nuremberg (Bavaria). Though undated, her diaries reveal that it was conceived in 1897 while walking through the African hillsides then written at the Olivage Training Center outside Algiers during months of Saturdays in 1898. Her two parable books-Parables of the Cross and Parables of the Christ-life-written respectively in England and North Africa, compliment each other as Lilias explores faith-lessons derived from the plant life unique to each region. Though Parables of the Christ-life, like the first parable book, was popular upon publication with numerous reprintings, it had been out-of-print for decades. This singular facsimile edition is reproduced from the first edition and is faithful in both the presentation of text and colorplates.
Download or read book Head and Heart written by Fraser Watts and published by Templeton Foundation Press. This book was released on 2013-08-26 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theologians and religious figures often draw a distinction between religion of the ‘”head” and religion of the “heart,” but few stop to ask what the terms “head” and “heart” actually denote. Many assume that this distinction has a scriptural basis, and yet many Biblical authors used the word “heart” as a synonym for “mind.” In fact, there isn’t a strict separation of the two concepts until the modern period, as in Pascal’s famous claim that “the heart has its reasons that reason can not know.” Since then, many other philosophers and theologians have made a similar distinction. The fact that this distinction has been so persistent makes it an important area of study. Head and Heart: Perspectives from Religion and Psychology takes an inter-disciplinary approach, linking the thinking of theologians and philosophers with theory and research in present-day psychology. The tradition of using framing questions that have been developed in theology and philosophy can now be brought into dialogue with scientific approaches developed within cognitive psychology and neuroscience. Though these scientific approaches have not generally used the terms “head” and “heart,” they have arrived at a similar distinction in other ways. There is a notable convergence upon the realization that humans have two modes of cognition at their disposal that correspond to “head” and “heart.” The time is therefore ripe to bring the approaches of theology and science in to dialogue—an important dialogue that has been heretofore neglected. Head and Heart draws on the unique expertise in relating theology and psychology of the University of Cambridge’s Psychology and Religion Research Group (PRRG). In addition to providing historical and theoretical perspectives, the contributors to this volume will also address practical issues arising from the group’s applied work in deradicalisation and religious education. Contributors include Geoff Dumbreck, Nicholas J. S. Gibson, Malcolm Guite, Liz Gulliford, Russell Re Manning, Glendon L. Moriarty, Sally Myers, Sara Savage, Carissa A. Sharp, Fraser Watts, Harris Wiseman, and Bonnie Poon Zahl.
Book Synopsis Parables of the Cross by : I. Lilias Trotter
Download or read book Parables of the Cross written by I. Lilias Trotter and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I. Lilias Trotter's Parables of the Cross was first published by Marschall Brothers, London and printed by E. Nister of Nuremberg (Bavaria). While undated, the writing falls clearly within the window of summer/fall 1895 at a time when she was taking an extended break in England. Trotter's health, never robust, had been seriously compromised after seven years of unremitting labor in the testing climate of Algiers. The result was this devotional classic, born of her own spiritual struggles and tempered with her depth of life experience. It reflects Trotter's deep grounding in Scripture, and is animated by her growing sensibility to God speaking through His natural world. Though popular upon publication, with numerous reprintings, it had been out of print for decades. This facsimile edition is reproduced from the first edition and is faithful in both the presentation of text and colorplates.

Book Synopsis Parables of the Cross by : I. Lilias Trotter
Download or read book Parables of the Cross written by I. Lilias Trotter and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parables of the Cross is a didactic look at the parables in the Bible. I. Lillias Trotter explores openly and indiscriminately the lessons to be divined from the most famous book in the world. Excerpt: "There was deep insight in those old words. For man's natural thought of death is that of a dreary ending in decay and dissolution. And from his standpoint he is right: death as the punishment of sin is an ending. But far other is God's thought in the redemption of the world. He takes the very thing that came in with the curse and makes it the path of glory. Death becomes a beginning instead of an ending, for it becomes the means of liberating a fresh life."
Download or read book New Blood written by Neil Astley and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kafka said we should read books which bite and sting: 'If the book we are reading does not wake us up with a blow to the head, what's the point in reading? A book must be the axe which smashes the frozen sea within us.' Brian Hinton applied this to Neil Astley's anthology Poetry with an Edge, which 'crystallises what he has already achieved with Bloodaxe, well designed and committed books, though never comfortable to read. They answer Kafka's definition of what real literature should be.' New Blood is the sequel to Poetry with an Edge, which marked Bloodaxe's first decade of poetry publishing. This completely new anthology brings together poets who have published their first collections during the past ten years. New Blood shows that Bloodaxe isn't going rusty with age, for here are some of the sharpest new talents in poetry - with poems which bite and sting as well as disturb and delight the reader. This book of new poetry from Bloodaxe 'must be the axe which smashes the frozen sea within us'.
Book Synopsis Parables of Coercion by : Seth Kimmel
Download or read book Parables of Coercion written by Seth Kimmel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, competing scholarly communities sought to define a Spain that was, at least officially, entirely Christian, even if many suspected that newer converts from Islam and Judaism were Christian in name only. Unlike previous books on conversion in early modern Spain, however, Parables of Coercion focuses not on the experience of the converts themselves, but rather on how questions surrounding conversion drove religious reform and scholarly innovation. In its careful examination of how Spanish authors transformed the history of scholarship through debate about forced religious conversion, Parables of Coercion makes us rethink what we mean by tolerance and intolerance, and shows that debates about forced conversion and assimilation were also disputes over the methods and practices that demarcated one scholarly discipline from another.
Download or read book Parables written by John F. MacArthur and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why Jesus often spoke in parables? Are you curious about what lessons we can learn from these parables today? Pastor and bestselling author John MacArthur breaks down the parables and teaches us how we can apply these deceptively simple stories to modern Christianity. Jesus was a master storyteller, and the parables he often told were no exception. Beneath these unassuming stories were deeply profound spiritual lessons that were designed to reach all who heard them--from the faithful to the faithless--and they're still relevant today. In Parables, MacArthur argues that these short, memorable stories represented more than just symbolism or a clever teaching style--they were carefully crafted tales that made the mysteries of the Gospel more accessible to everyday believers. Parables will help you see Jesus' teachings in a brand new light, addressing some of the most common questions on the topic, including: When did Jesus start teaching in parables? What makes parables so accessible? How can we interpret these stories? What common threads link each of the parables together? What do parables teach us about the kingdom of God? MacArthur has spent a lifetime sharing the Word of God in clear and comprehensible terms with believers of all walks of life. Let him be your guide as he sheds light on the essential lessons contained in the most infamous and influential short stories the world has ever known.

Book Synopsis Poetry and Autobiography by : Jo Gill
Download or read book Poetry and Autobiography written by Jo Gill and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection makes a critical and creative intervention into ongoing debates about the relationship between poetry and autobiography. Drawing on recent theories of life writing, the essays in the first part of this volume provide new analyses of works by a range of poets, dating from the early modern period to the present day. Exploring the autobiographical resonances of poems by Martha Moulsworth, Mina Loy, Anne Sexton, Joe Brainard, Edward Kamau Braithwaite, and Gwyneth Lewis, the authors here examine the extent to which discourses of truth and authenticity have been implicated in traditional interpretations of lyric poetry. In doing so, they endeavour to illuminate the complex intersections – and divergences – of poetry and autobiography, asking what these forms might learn from each other about issues of shared concern, from questions of identity and textuality to those of reference and audience. The creative reflections which form the second part of the collection develop and respond to these questions in various suggestive and original ways; here poetry and prose are used in order to test the relationship between poetry and life writing and to explore issues of memory, time, place, subjectivity and voice. This book was published as a special issue of Life Writing.
