Download or read book A Feather Blown On The Breath Of God written by Sheryl Stewart and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fun collection of short stories with a Native American theme, A Feather Blown on the Breath of God is a series of stories from that ancient time when it was common to speak with animals, plants, clouds, fire, and the very rocks themselves. The concept "all my relatives" respects the spirit in all aspects of Creation and teaches that humanity is created to be a responsible part of a truly extended family. You will meet a young Native American from a time so ancient that he is on hand to see the birth of the Moon itself. Watch him as he grows, earns his adult name, and becomes chief. Discover the wisdom of the Great Spirit in his many adventures as he is blown, as we all are, by the breath of God through life. His stories are great resources for parents, pastors, youth leaders, and church educators; yet, they are mainly designed to be read and colored by a child. As each character discovers their part in God's web of life, they enable us to explore the miracle of God's love and a plan of salvation that includes us all.

Download or read book Mystics written by William Harmless and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2008 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Mystics, William Harmless, S.J., introduces readers to the scholarly study of mysticism. He explores both mystics' extraordinary lives and their no-less-extraordinary writings using a unique case-study method centered on detailed examinations of six major Christian mystics: Thomas Merton, Bernard of Clairvaux, Hildegard of Bingen, Bonaventure, Meister Eckhart, and Evagrius Ponticus. Rather than presenting mysticism as a subtle web of psychological or theological abstractions, Harless's case-study approach brings things down to earth, restoring mystics to their historical context.

Download or read book Sabbath Pause written by Terry Chapman and published by Wood Lake Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world where most of us fervently complain, "There just isn't enough time!" we need to learn how to pause and truly rest. With Sabbath Pause, Terry Chapman offers a resource based on the Judeo-Christian tradition of Sabbath that can change the way we live in time. The original Jewish "Sabbath" referred to a 24-hour period every seven days which was set aside for worship, rest, and renewal. Sabbath Pause offers daily writings that encourage us to make time for small Sabbaths each day--a time to stop, breathe, reflect, and direct our focus with a particular intention, be it listening for God in the noise of life or dreaming the impossible dream. Each day Chapman uses a combination of poetry and prose as well as quotations from scripture and literature to explore a theme. This exploration is followed by questions for reflection, a breath prayer, and an "intention" for the day. Using this daily spiritual practice, Chapman opens us to a new rhythm or way of living life with and in God--a way that can nourish our deepest needs. If you know there is more to living than the rush of daily life, if you are looking for something deeper but don't know where to start, this book will provide the inspiration and the tools you need. Sabbath Pause can be used individually or in community.
