Download or read book Rooted written by Lyanda Lynn Haupt and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deepen your connection to the natural world with this inspiring meditation, "a path to the place where science and spirit meet" (Robin Wall Kimmerer). In Rooted, cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets, artists, mystics, and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over millennia: life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies, thoughts, minds, and spirits are affected by the whole of nature, and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis, how can we best live upon our imperiled, beloved earth? Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees, to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life. In the tradition of Rachel Carson, Elizabeth Kolbert, and Mary Oliver, Haupt writes with urgency and grace, reminding us that at the crossroads of science, nature, and spirit we find true hope. Each chapter provides tools for bringing our unique gifts to the fore and transforming our sense of belonging within the magic and wonder of the natural world.

In Living at the Crossroads, authors Michael Goheen and Craig Bartholomew explore this question as they provide a general introduction to Christian worldview. Ideal for both students and lay readers, Living at the Crossroads lays out a brief summary of the biblical story and the most fundamental beliefs of Scripture.

Download or read book Crossroads written by Ted Huizinga and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the dismayed and disappointed disciples making their way back home to Emmaus the Sunday afternoon following the crucifixion of Jesus, the resurrected Lord came alongside them and taught them all things concerning Himself from the scriptures beginning with Moses and the prophets. From scripture, He showed them how a crucified Messiah fulfilled all which had been written concerning His redemptive work as Immanuel (God with us). He opened their eyes to understand God’s salvation plan for fallen man and His role in completing that work. This daily devotional seeks to show how scripture reveals the Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, and He stands at the crossroads between eternal life with God and eternal life separated from God. It is my sincerest prayer and desire that you will see His glory reflected in the scriptural texts for each day, the associated meditations of my heart, and be compelled to take up your cross and follow Him to victory and glory. “To my wife, Carol and sons: Thomas, Michael and Solomon. I would not have written this book were it not for you and our mutual loved ones.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being at the crossroads can be confusing. Roads lead in different directions, but you don’t know if any of them will take you to your destination. And when the same thing happens in critical life-situations, it can be crushing. You feel overwhelmed and lost. Imagine how Sagar must have felt, then. Many a time, he found himself at the crossroads of life. But each time, he managed to carve out a path to go where he wanted to. After the Mumbai floods of 2005 almost destroyed his life, he picked up the pieces, put himself through a premier B-School abroad, and became a successful corporate leader, entrepreneur and global speaker. How? Using his intellect, willpower, resourcefulness and values. Sagar realised that this is the magic formula one needs to succeed in life. And through this book, Sagar shares his formula with you. His inspiring story – which moves from Mumbai to England to Nashik to Hyderabad – gives you an insight into how you can achieve your dreams. If Sagar could do it, so can you!

Download or read book At the Crossroads of the Earth and the Sky written by Gary Urton and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2013-12-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Above Misminay, the sky also is so divided by the alternation of the two axes of the Milky Way passing through the zenith. This mirror-image quadri-partition of terrestrial and celestial spheres is such that a point within one of the quarters of the earth is related to a point within the corresponding celestial quarter. The transition between the earth and the sky occurs at the horizon, where sacred mountains are related to topographic and celestial features. Based on fieldwork in Misminay, Peru, Gary Urton details a cosmology in which the Milky Way is central. This is the first study that provides a description and analysis of the astronomical and cosmological system in a contemporary community in the Americas. Separate chapters take up the sun, the moon, meteorological phenomena, the stars, and the planets. Star-to-star constellations, the "animal" dark-cloud constellations that cut through the Milky Way, and certain twilight- and midnight-zenith stars are analyzed in terms of their spatial and temporal integration within an indigenous cosmological framework. Urton breaks new ground by demonstrating the indigenous merging of such forms of "precise knowledge" as astronomy, meteorology, agriculture, and the correlation of astronomical and biological cycles within a single calendar system. More than sixty diagrams clarify this Quechua system of astronomy and relate it to more familiar principles of Western astronomy and cosmology.

Download or read book Angels at the Crossroads written by Ann H. Gabhart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-01-26 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chase was over. In April 1969, nineteen-year-old Jerry Shepherd stares in his rearview mirror at the two policemen approaching his car. He wants to run, make his escape, perhaps his final escape from life. Then he curls his fingers around the small Bible in his back pocket as the words Peace be still whisper through his head. He holds to those words as he steps from the car to handcuffed and arrested. Angels at the Crossroads is the compelling true story of Shepherd's amazing journey from wrongdoing to redemption. Convicted of a crime he can hardly believe he could have committed, Shepherd faces life in prison and fears not only that he won't survive behind bars, but also that he has stepped beyond the hope of prayer or forgiveness. His parents say no as they cover him with fervent prayers, but Shepherd must find his own way through the jungle of prison life to the people - earth angels - who can help him discover God's love knows no limit. On this pilgrimage to self-acceptance, Shepherd learns to forgive the past and completely and unconditionally love again. If you face a crossroads in your life, Shepherd's inspirational journey may help lead you down a new pathway to a life filled with compassion and love. Visit author Ann H.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harvard’s acclaimed geologist “charts Earth’s history in accessible style” (AP) “A sublime chronicle of our planet." –Booklist, STARRED review How well do you know the ground beneath your feet? Odds are, where you’re standing was once cooking under a roiling sea of lava, crushed by a towering sheet of ice, rocked by a nearby meteor strike, or perhaps choked by poison gases, drowned beneath ocean, perched atop a mountain range, or roamed by fearsome monsters. Probably most or even all of the above. The story of our home planet and the organisms spread across its surface is far more spectacular than any Hollywood blockbuster, filled with enough plot twists to rival a bestselling thriller. But only recently have we begun to piece together the whole mystery into a coherent narrative. Drawing on his decades of field research and up-to-the-minute understanding of the latest science, renowned geologist Andrew H. Knoll delivers a rigorous yet accessible biography of Earth, charting our home planet's epic 4.6 billion-year story. Placing twenty first-century climate change in deep context, A Brief History of Earth is an indispensable look at where we’ve been and where we’re going. Features original illustrations depicting Earth history and nearly 50 figures (maps, tables, photographs, graphs).

Fleeing from Ebou Dar with the kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons, whom he is fated to marry, Mat Cauthon learns that he can neither keep her nor let her go, not in safety for either of them, for both the Shadow and the might of the Seanchan Empire are in deadly pursuit. Perrin Aybara will stop at nothing to free his wife Faile from the Shaido Aiel. Consumed by rage, he offers no mercy to those he takes prisoner. And when he discovers that Masema Dagar, the Prophet of the Dragon, has been conspiring with the Seanchan, Perrin considers making an unholy alliance. Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn himself, has cleansed the Dark One's taint from the male half of the True Source, and everything has changed. Yet nothing has, for only men who can channel believe that saidin is clean again, and a man who can channel is still hated and feared—even one prophesied to save the world.

Download or read book Wisdom at the Crossroads written by Thomas G Casey and published by Messenger Publications. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wisdom at the Crossroads is an introduction to the life and thought of the gifted Jesuit priest, theologian, author and educator, Michael Paul Gallagher SJ (1939-2015). It follows his journey from the simplicity of an Irish rural childhood to the more complex world he soon encountered. That changing world prompted him to think deeply about the question of faith in our times, the effects of a shifting culture on our perceptions, and the challenge of unbelief and atheism as it manifests itself today. The book illuminates Michael Paul’s rare gift – both in personal conversation and in the written word – of helping people to move from a detached consideration of faith to an awareness of what was deepest in their own hearts, for it was from that hidden layer of wonder that he believed the journey of faith could unfold. Being attuned to the depths in his own heart, he was able to identify the liberating wavelength in the lives of others and in the culture of our time, awakening many people to a vision that healed them into hope.

Rather, even in the suburbs and cities where we live we are surrounded by wild life such as crows, and through observing them we can enhance our appreciation of the world's natural order.

Man’s thought is insatiable, driven by some kind of innate instinct, it passionately rushes from one problem into another and cannot have enough. And so on and on forever, until it subdues the two-sided [single] issue: the issue of God and of man, in its essence, the all-issue, the solution of which defines the fate of man in all the worlds. You are rushing after man’s secret? And what have you came across? Of course – terrible precipices, where both your mind and your heart and your conscience get broken into pieces. Oh! Through what darkness and through what precipices leads the way to the truth about man! Here the thought goes crazy because of pain, of anguish, of groaning, as if you have stepped into an endless hell, where weeping and gnashing of teeth reign. And all this shall continue until such time that after all these darknesses and precipices you shall not find the Cherubim essence of the human being – God. Thus you would have stepped on the path of light, leading to a perfect solution to all the major problems of human being in all lives.

[I hear some of you saying they know not their father! - They may well not know him - but their heart does! So you, too: ] You just listen: - GRATITUDE / БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ ... You hear out (again and again): - GRATITUDE / БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ ... And you experience: - GRATITUDE / БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ ... At first it seems [as if] you were giving thanks - No! The second or the third time around you already know Who the Giver of all is - all you have to do is attune your heart, and let it FEEL the GRATITUDE /БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ/ - and you experience the downpour of all mercies, goods (kindness), and all the merits of the Giver of all (ВСЕПОДАТЕЛЯ Христос) Christ - Who gives everything - TO ALL - hears everything and first responds to GRATITUDE / БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ... And – yes! – you do what your Father does! With heart-felt GRATITUDE / БЛАГОДАРЕНИЕ... what used to be nothing more but mimicking or 'play' is all too real!

Parent Advocate and author of Creating Intimate Moments www.facebook.com/CreatingIntimateMoments "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls." - Jeremiah 6:16 In the hills of southeast Ohio, in the hollows of Jackson County, sits a picturesque church called Hillside Chapel Mennonite Church. Serving a loving and all-powerful God every Saturday evening, Pastor Jim Mullett would speak words of wisdom from his beautiful heart - the heart of a man who serves his congregation still, even during "retirement." You see, pastoring is like the unwritten street gang law: 'Once you're in, you're in for life.' You can say you quit, but people will always be drawn to you for help. Something stays on you as a pastor.
