Book Synopsis Shining Moments by : Georgia Lang Weithe
Download or read book Shining Moments written by Georgia Lang Weithe and published by Reflections Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Death is the last chapter in everyone's life story, and while we would rather not dwell on it, we're often hungry for insights and information that will comfort us and calm our fears. In Shining moments: finding hope in facing death, Georgia Weithe provides an intellectual rationale for the importance of coming to terms with death, an emotional glimpse into what it is like to sit vigil while someone we love is dying, and spiritual directions for how to create an atmosphere of comfort and safety to support the dying person and help them let go. The book shines a positive light on death to help us accept its presence in our lives. It offers readers the hopeful message that when we have found the key to living with the knowledge of our own death, the door to inner peace and the hope of fulfilling our true purpose on earth is opened. Shining Moments is a valuable resource for all who have an intellectual curiosity about death, for friends and family members of loved ones who are in the final stage of life, and for Hospice and other end-of-life care professionals who assist them with their journey"--Publisher's description.
Book Synopsis Shining Moments by : John E. Sumwalt
Download or read book Shining Moments written by John E. Sumwalt and published by CSS Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is filled with stories of shining moments -- Moses' face shone as he came down from the mountain with the ten commandments; Jesus' face changed and his clothes became dazzling white in a transfiguration witnessed by the disciples; Paul was blinded by a light and heard the voice of Christ on the road to Damascus -- and many modern Christians have had equally life-changing experiences of the Lord's power and presence. In this third volume of the acclaimed Visions series, 60 contributors share their authentic, intensely personal accounts of holy experiences. Rosmarie Trapp of the Sound of Music family tells of a moment of assurance when "the Lord visited me in a bright, golden light" whose "golden glow brought peace to my soul." Ralph Milton, author of the historical novel Julian's Cell, describes a visitation by his late sister: "We were singing together as we often did as children ... I don't recall ever having a memory or dream as clear and powerful as that one, and it left me with a sense of joy and peace." Karen Steinke recounts the warmth she felt at the moment of her baptism: "I looked up to see the form of Jesus with an overpowering light surrounding him ..." Whether they relate transforming moments like visions, healings, or visitations by angels, joyous moments like being in the presence of a loved one who has died, or just the simple sense of God's presence while singing in church or sitting in a sunny meadow on a warm spring day, the vignettes in Shining Moments are a testament to the indescribable comfort and peace of an encounter with the divine. And because each story also illustrates a scripture passage, Shining Moments is a valuable preaching resource and an excellent catalyst for small group discussion. But even more, this book provides inspiring and heart-warming reading for personal devotion and spiritual growth. Praise for other volumes in the Visions series: This wonderful collection of stories reminds us of a fact our world desperately needs to know -- that God is alive and well and ready to be at work in our daily lives. J. Ellsworth Kalas Author of New Testament Stories from the Back Side A noted storyteller, John E. Sumwalt is the pastor of Wauwatosa Avenue United Methodist Church in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The author of CSS'Lectionary Stories series, Sumwalt leads seminars and retreats on sharing and understanding visions. He and his wife Jo Perry-Sumwalt also are the editors of the online service StoryShare.

Book Synopsis One Shining Moment by : Gilbert Jonas
Download or read book One Shining Moment written by Gilbert Jonas and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the darkest hours of World War II, a Scarsdale, NY, high school student experienced a "vision" of the possibilities of a peaceful postwar world. From this mystical moment came the most powerful American student movement of the postwar decade—the Student Federalists—who pressed their elders and their contemporaries to consider the establishment of a world government based on the same principles which guided our nation's Founding Fathers more than a century-and-a-half earlier. Damned by the fanatics of the extreme right, and of the extreme left, the Student Federalists rapidly expanded after VJ Day, reaching a high point of some 15,000 members and almost four hundred local chapters. No student movement ever grew as fast and as broadly as the Student Federalist between 1943 and 1949. Nor did any fade as precipitously in the face of a widening Cold War. Few other American movements have produced so many future leaders in academia, politics, international aid and public affairs as did this non-partisan and non-sectarian phenomenon. This story—never told before—is documented by the correspondence, proceedings and news articles of the student participants and includes a 150-page appendix containing scores of documents, essays, statements of purpose, and official pamphlets.

Book excerpt: Think of all the moments you "lose" stuck in traffic, standing in line, waiting for a download. And think of all the moments you "waste" working when you're not focused, or fiddling with your phone. What if each of these moments offered you an extraordinary opportunity? In One-Moment Meditation, now published in eight languages, Martin Boroson distills the philosophy of time into a simple form of meditation that you can do anywhere, anytime. It begins with an exercise that takes just one minute per day. With practice, this takes less and less time, until it only takes a moment. Then each and every moment gives you a chance to reduce stress, refresh your mind, and open yourself to new possibilities. This unique approach to meditation was featured as a thirty-day series for stress reduction on Oprah.com. Playful, profound, and above all, practical, One-Moment Meditation teaches you that inner peace is not a distant goal reserved for saints and sages, and it doesn't take a lot of time: it only takes a moment. "It's hard to overestimate how helpful this technique could be." - Psychologies magazine "This gem of a book is a marvelous launching pad for anyone who wants to rest in the now, the only time there is." - Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Reinventing Medicine "Martin Boroson's fantastic book ... is all about learning to condense the practice of meditation into these fleeting moments. And about how, from a certain perspective, a sequence of fleeting moments are all we ever really have anyway." - Oliver Burkeman, The Guardian

Book excerpt: One moment, one thought can change your day. Less is morewe all have our own interpretation of this phrase, but I liked this one I heard the other day: Less is more: the less you know, the more you learn, and the more you learn, the better youll be. Be happy knowing less, as it gives you the opportunity to learn more. The less you know, the more you learn. In response to requests from both my sales team and audiences, I created a unique phone recording of an inspiring message each day for a year. The project proved so popular (with some calling in multiple times to hear the same message), I decided to publish. This inspirational book is the result. Packed with powerful advice, stories, and messages that I have collected from my own experiences as well as from clients, friends, and family, Butterfly Whispers will encourage you to take a moment out of your life each day just to be. It also includes space for you to write your own musings. Dip in and out throughout the year, and learn to appreciate the small things in life, to feel a sense of gratitude for the things you have, and to see the world from a new perspective. Read it, make notes, and share it with everyone you care about. Butterfly Whispers is a powerful collection of inspiration that will change your day and beyond.
Book Synopsis Path of the Prophets by : Barry L. Schwartz
Download or read book Path of the Prophets written by Barry L. Schwartz and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminating the ethical legacy of the biblical prophets, Path of the Prophets identifies the prophetic moment in the lives of eighteen biblical figures and demonstrates their compelling relevance to us today. While the Bible almost exclusively names men as prophets, Rabbi Barry L. Schwartz celebrates heroic, largely unknown biblical women such as Shiphrah, Tirzah, and Hannah. He also deepens readers' interpretations of more familiar biblical figures not generally thought of as prophets, such as Joseph, Judah, and Caleb. Schwartz introduces the prophets with creative, first-person retellings of their decisive experiences, followed by key biblical narratives, context, and analysis. He weighs our heroes' and heroines' legacies--their obstacles and triumphs--and considers how their ethical examples live on; he guides us on how to integrate biblical-ethical values into our lives; and he challenges each of us to walk the prophetic path today.
Book Synopsis No Safe Route by : Robert H. Linders
Download or read book No Safe Route written by Robert H. Linders and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It takes a gifted speaker to turn the philosophical into the practical, the theological into themes for daily living. Author Robert H. Linders has done just that for more than thirty-five years as the pastor of St. Pauls Lutheran Church in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. In No Safe Route, he shares a collection of his sermons and other essays gathered from throughout his career. For Linders, most subjects are fair game, providing spiritual guidance on everything from novels, fathers of the Church, poetry, popular movies, a visit to his college-town diner, and the current political landscape. In these sermons, the Bible and todays news sit side by side, and humor illuminates ancient biblical truths. Bob Linders addresses the concerns of living in a world that tries to do without God. -Donald Mathews, former librarian and preaching instructor at Gettysburg Theological Seminary In the Land of Linders, Bible hermeneutics meet todays news, and memorable jokes confront philosophical wisdom in such rapid succession that one needs at least a good week of conversation at home to sort them out. -Robert C. Williams (PhD, Harvard), Pulitzer Prize Nominee in Russian History Lovell, Maine.
