Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Voice From the Pew: No Uncertain Sound He addresses himself with some confidence to those devout and earnest seekers after the truth who are willing to recognize and accept it, without regard to the source from whence it emanated, and who will judge it as an honest endeavor to make clear that which heretofore remained in doubt and to establish as fundamental truth that which has furnished only - to many minds - a subject for anxious speculation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simply because you are a regular guy or gal who sits in the pews does not mean that you are unable to use your God given capacity to think on important matters in our world. A Voice From The Pews shows that with the guidance of scripture, a willingness to take the time necessary to go deeper than the surface, and using one's God given capacity to think, Joe or Jane Church Goer can find answers to tough questions and contend for the faith. The book is an easy read. It is written in a simple, easy flowing, yet thoughtful, interesting, and effective style, dealing with the topics it covers. It covers an eclectic mix of subjects that at some point crosses the minds of many. it touches on faith and science, right and wrong, suffering, thankfulness, the compassion of Jesus and an array of other issues. A voice from the pews demonstrates that the ordinary believer can ponder the issues, reason, and come to smart conclusions on many of the questions that we all face at some time or the other in our lives. Many believers find themselves challenged at some point, dealing with the tough questions that sometimes fog their minds. They feel overwhelmed, inadequate to deal with these matters because they seem to be too heavy. Church leaders are often very busy and they do not always have time to answer some of the questions the average church goer has. The book does not pretend to be what it is not. It is not a scholastic work from an erudite academic. It presents the thoughts of an ordinary guy giving a sense making taking on the issues about which he writes. The hope is that others sitting in the pews could be inspired by a fellow pew member who has a deep passion to learn more of the things of God. It is meant to show that with a little self application, a desire to go beyond the surface, and a commitment to learn, anyone sitting in the pews can find a voice that adds value to the conversation.

One of Amazon's 100 Best Books of 2020. “The people of this community are stifling, and generous, cruel, earnest, needy, overconfident, fragile and repressive, which is to say that they are brilliantly rendered by their wise maker, Catherine Lacey.” --Rachel Kushner, author of The Flamethrowers A figure with no discernible identity appears in a small, religious town, throwing its inhabitants into a frenzy In a small, unnamed town in the American South, a church congregation arrives for a service and finds a figure asleep on a pew. The person is genderless and racially ambiguous and refuses to speak. One family takes in the strange visitor and nicknames them Pew. As the town spends the week preparing for a mysterious Forgiveness Festival, Pew is shuttled from one household to the next. The earnest and seemingly well-meaning townspeople see conflicting identities in Pew, and many confess their fears and secrets to them in one-sided conversations. Pew listens and observes while experiencing brief flashes of past lives or clues about their origin. As days pass, the void around Pew’s presence begins to unnerve the community, whose generosity erodes into menace and suspicion. Yet by the time Pew’s story reaches a shattering and unsettling climax at the Forgiveness Festival, the secret of who they really are—a devil or an angel or something else entirely—is dwarfed by even larger truths. Pew, Catherine Lacey’s third novel, is a foreboding, provocative, and amorphous fable about the world today: its contradictions, its flimsy morality, and the limits of judging others based on their appearance. With precision and restraint, one of our most beloved and boundary-pushing writers holds up a mirror to her characters’ true selves, revealing something about forgiveness, perception, and the faulty tools society uses to categorize human complexity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2011 Retailers Choice Award winner! Rebecca never felt safe as a child. In 1969, her father, Robert Nichols, moved to Sellerstown, North Carolina, to serve as a pastor. There he found a small community eager to welcome him—with one exception. Glaring at him from pew number seven was a man obsessed with controlling the church. Determined to get rid of anyone who stood in his way, he unleashed a plan of terror that was more devastating and violent than the Nichols family could have ever imagined. Refusing to be driven away by acts of intimidation, Rebecca’s father stood his ground until one night when an armed man walked into the family’s kitchen . . . And Rebecca’s life was shattered. If anyone had a reason to harbor hatred and seek personal revenge, it would be Rebecca. Yet The Devil in Pew Number Seven tells a different story. It is the amazing true saga of relentless persecution, one family’s faith and courage in the face of it, and a daughter whose parents taught her the power of forgiveness.

Download or read book A View from the Back Pew written by Tim O'Donnell and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2011-02-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engages with the taboo questions of Christianity as investigative reportage, exploring the "mysteries of faith". Is America becoming preoccupied with religion? In a country with a tradition of keeping matters of creed private, we are now seeing religion in the headlines almost daily, while ironically, escalating numbers of Americans are abandoning organized religion altogether. A recent Pew survey of Americans show: 91% believe in God, 44% have switched religions, 71% of 18-30 year-olds are “spiritual but not religious” and the Catholic Church estimates at least one third of Catholics are lapsed. We are a nation under God, a country of believers it seems, but one undergoing a collective shift in our allegiance to organized religion. But, before the individual shifts they are aided by looking at what they were taught to believe in the first place. A View from the Back Pew: God, Religion & Our Personal Quest for Truth investigates the mysteries of faith in a no-holds-barred exposé into the very core of the Christianity. Candid, humorous and controversial, Tim O’Donnell takes us on a powerful search for balance – between faith and personal experience, between the roots of Christianity and layers of doctrine and between ritual and the connection to the entity we call God. A View from the Back Pew is not written for theologians or the so-called spiritual illuminati, but for ordinary people who are asking deeper questions about their faith. Before one can venture from the safe harbor of organized religion to the open water of spirituality, it helps to be clear about what causes our quandary. This book helps deal with the imprint religion has made while leaving out the guilt commonly linked to asking such questions. “My hope” writes O’Donnell “is that if you are drawn to the Divine but labor over dogma and ritual, you will find a fresh perspective in my view from the back pew”.
