Download or read book Ask Me for a Blessing You Know You Need One written by Adrian Dannhauser and published by Broadleaf Books. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a blessing? Do you have to believe to receive one? Can you doubt while you pray? And can you extend grace to others while still desperately in need of it yourself? Once a week Episcopal priest Adrian Dannhauser stands outside her Manhattan church beside a chalkboard sign that reads "Ask me for a blessing (because God knows you need one)." Passersby stop, chat, and ask for prayer: for a sick friend, an addicted son, an upcoming job interview, the state of our nation, or the grief of our world. Bus drivers sometimes open their doors for a quick prayer before the light turns green, and someone once took her to meet their doorman so she could bless him too. Half of those who stop are in crisis. Someone always cries. A few are simply curious. Through the heartfelt, frank, and sincere stories of her unique ministry, Dannhauser offers glimpses into the tender, holy, and sometimes hilarious moments of sidewalk prayers. With a potent blend of reverence and irreverence, as well as insights from Christian scriptures, she delves into the power that ancient ideas--blessing, forgiveness, miracles, and prayer--hold in a disenchanted world. For people of Christian faith, other faiths, or no faith at all, having spiritual conversations, even awkward ones with strangers on the street, can help us face our vulnerability, where we may discover a grace sufficient for all.

After addressing the development of the African slave trade, it highlights the attitudes and accomplishments in the arenas of slavery and equality for black Americans during each presidential administration from Washington to Carter. Paulette Ivy Harris then presents her genealogies of four lineages, namely the Ivys, the Baileys, Goldsons, and the Thompsons. She takes the reader on an empathetic sojourn through the lives of the ancestors she finds long buried in Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Missouri. Her ancestors seem to resurrect from the dust of their internment and take on flesh to live again between the pages. By incorporating genealogical details about her ancestors into her research of African American history, she reconstructs the lives they endured. She discovers that the Christian faith of her ancestors was unfailingly rewarded with what truly mattered. Those who enjoy reading family histories will learn about the struggles of several generations. Beginners and seasoned family history sleuths will be able to glean sources from Always a Blessing in the End to help them with their own ancestry puzzle.

Download or read book A Blessing of Sunshine Wrath written by Susan Gore and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Blessing of Sunshine" traces one woman's journey virtually from childhood through adolescence and into adulthood. This true story touches upon diverse challenges of an abandoned infant that was adopted by a wonderful elderly couple. This couple had a very strict, stern religious belief. They also had raised a large group of children that had already left the nest. The empty nest put all the focus on Susan and the pressures of being the perfect Christian child. This rigid religious controlled childhood made it seem impossible to be happy, and left many questions not allowed to be answered, as children were to be seen and not heard The stress and pressure was more than she could take. She was always afraid she would not be worthy of going to heaven or being in the rapture if Jesus returned to earth. Susan Gore was born in the United Sates, where she has spent her entire life. She was abandoned by her birth mother and adopted by an elderly couple that had already raised eight children and had grandchildren. Per her Adoptive mother's wishes she married, graduated from high school, become a hair dresser, worked as a stylist for a few years, became a mother, and then changed careers to the business world. Still not fulfilled and after experiencing some unusual phenomena, she discovered the healing arts. In 2001 she attained a second degree certification in Reiki, the Usui System of Natural Healing. She began working with energy healing and experienced many healings of her own. Brought up in a strict protestant environment, later in life she discovered the Universe doesn't look at the names of religions or rules at all, it's what inside the mind, heart and spirit that matters.
