Download or read book Head Heart Hands written by Dennis P. Hollinger and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-09-20 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Christians, we are to love God with all of our being--heart, mind, soul and strength. But many of us tend to overemphasize one aspect or another, and as a result, our faith becomes imbalanced. Some of us have an intellectual faith but lack compassion or spiritual discipline. Others of us have a vibrant, heartfelt relationship with God but lack commitment to truth or doctrine. And many of us overlook translating our faith into service and ministry. In this book ethicist Dennis P. Hollinger presents a holistic, integrative vision for reuniting Christian thought, passion and action. He shows how individuals, churches and movements throughout history have focused on either the head, or the heart or the hands--often to the exclusion of other expressions. But by linking our intellect, emotions and actions, Hollinger points us toward a whole faith for the whole person, where each dimension feeds, nurtures and sustains the others.

Download or read book Keys to Holiness Meditations on the First Letter of Peter written by Joyce Pranger Venaglia and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-08-08 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing in a life of holiness in a fast-paced technical world means, first and foremost, to keep our minds and hearts focused on the living word, Jesus. This is exactly what the apostle Peter gives us in his two short but often overlooked letters. In Keys to Holiness, Dr. Joyce Venaglia unlocks for us-in her own unique, simple style-a rich treasure from her years living a life of silence, prayer, and meditation. Dr. Joyce found each chapter, each verse, and each word to be a goldmine of spiritual inspiration leading to a life lived in deep union with God, which is possible for everyone seeking a deep love relationship with God. This volume does not cover all of Joyce's meditations on First Peter but is like a glimpse of the best that is yet to come. The book is not meant to be read as a novel, but slowly and prayerfully with a resolution to allow maybe just one key to penetrate deeply into one's heart and mind. In the process, one is transformed, as Peter was, into a living replica of the word, Jesus. Dr. Joyce is a member of the third order of Franciscans. She founded the Hermitage Ministries in 1974 while living as a hermitess in West Virginia. In 1981 she was commissioned as a lay Catholic evangelist. She is the author of four other inspirational books and many published articles. Dr. Joyce has traveled extensively, giving teaching seminars, retreats, and parish missions on healing and prayer. Besides sharing from her love for writing, she is also a poetess and an artist-all born from her life of prayer. Dr. Joyce Venaglia, known to the world as Sister Joyce and a noted spiritual writer and director, leads the way once again in this powerful message for all Christians to lead a life of deep holiness, following in the steps of our beloved Apostle Peter. Information on Dr. Joyce's other books can be obtained by e-mailing [email protected].

Download or read book Stories of Transformative Learning written by Michael Kroth and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Stories of Transformative Learning is intended to encourage people to explore the potential for transformative learning in their lives, practices, and communities. This book illustrates the transformative learning process through ten stories of individuals from both inside and outside of the classroom. Adult educators and adult learners will find the book to be personally insightful and professionally useful. There have been many accounts of transformative learning experiences, but it is not often that we have the opportunity to hear first-hand personal stories of transformative learning. Here, ten stories are told directly by the people who experienced them, with additional commentary from the authors. These stories are intended to resonate with readers and to inspire people to create the conditions where transformative learning can occur in their lives and professional practice. Storytelling is one way in which both educators and learners can understand the process of transformative learning. Telling stories, reading others’ stories, and contemplating our own stories all help us to become aware of alternative perspectives, a process that is at the heart of critical reflection and critical self-reflection, which is, in turn, central to transformative learning. We hope to increase readers’ sense of agency and more self-directed, self-fulfilling lives. By demonstrating how others have examined and reconsidered otherwise hidden assumptions that constrained the quality and potential of their lives, we show readers how they may do the same."

Download or read book You Are Your Best Thing written by Tarana Burke and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Tarana Burke and Dr. Brené Brown bring together a dynamic group of Black writers, organizers, artists, academics, and cultural figures to discuss the topics the two have dedicated their lives to understanding and teaching: vulnerability and shame resilience. Contributions by Kiese Laymon, Imani Perry, Laverne Cox, Jason Reynolds, Austin Channing Brown, and more NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY MARIE CLAIRE AND BOOKRIOT It started as a text between two friends. Tarana Burke, founder of the ‘me too.’ Movement, texted researcher and writer Brené Brown to see if she was free to jump on a call. Brené assumed that Tarana wanted to talk about wallpaper. They had been trading home decorating inspiration boards in their last text conversation so Brené started scrolling to find her latest Pinterest pictures when the phone rang. But it was immediately clear to Brené that the conversation wasn’t going to be about wallpaper. Tarana’s hello was serious and she hesitated for a bit before saying, “Brené, you know your work affected me so deeply, but as a Black woman, I’ve sometimes had to feel like I have to contort myself to fit into some of your words. The core of it rings so true for me, but the application has been harder.” Brené replied, “I’m so glad we’re talking about this. It makes sense to me. Especially in terms of vulnerability. How do you take the armor off in a country where you’re not physically or emotionally safe?” Long pause. “That’s why I’m calling,” said Tarana. “What do you think about working together on a book about the Black experience with vulnerability and shame resilience?” There was no hesitation. Burke and Brown are the perfect pair to usher in this stark, potent collection of essays on Black shame and healing. Along with the anthology contributors, they create a space to recognize and process the trauma of white supremacy, a space to be vulnerable and affirm the fullness of Black love and Black life.
Download or read book Gospel Conversations written by Robert W. Kellemen and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a person learn to counsel others with the truth of God’s Word? Bob Kellemen believes that the best way to learn counseling is by doing it—by giving and receiving biblical counseling in the context of real, raw Christian community. Gospel Conversations explores the four compass-points of biblical counseling: Sustaining: “It’s Normal to Hurt.” Healing: “It’s Possible to Hope.” Reconciling: “It’s Horrible to Sin, but Wonderful to Be Forgiven.” Guiding: “It’s Supernatural to Mature.” These four compass points combine to equip readers to develop twenty-two ministry relational competencies—the “how to” of caring like Christ. This book serves as a practical training manual that can be used for lab and small group interaction. Gospel Conversations is the second volume in The Equipping Biblical Counselors Series, a comprehensive relational training curriculum for the local church that provides a model for equipping God’s people to change lives with Christ’s changeless truth. This two-volume series weaves together comprehensive biblical insight with compassionate Christian engagement.
