Download or read book Cruciform written by Jimmy Davis and published by Cruciform Press. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the Cross-Shaped Life? It is the vertical life of loving God with all your head, heart, and hands; and the horizontal life of loving others as Christ has loved you. Employing the symbols of the cruciform cathedral and the Celtic cross, Jimmy Davis uses personal stories, both humorous and heart-breaking, to encourage and equip the reader to gain a cross-shaped perspective on how he or she can be an active participant in God's community-on-mission. This book casts a vision for living as disciples of Jesus who are being shaped by the cross (gospel) into people and churches who share and show the cross (gospel) by living as sons and servants of God. As we embrace the gospel in this way we can live: in relationship to God as seekers who exalt God; in relationship to other disciples as shepherds who encourage one another; in relationship to the resources God has given us as stewards; and in relationship to those who are not disciples as sowers of the gospel of grace, engaging our neighbors, the nations, and the next generation with cross-shaped words and works. Finally, the Cruciform Life involves growing through cross-shaped spiritual disciplines and cross-shaped suffering, which together enable us to embrace and express the Cruciform Life to God, one another, and the world.

Book The Cruciform Brooch and Anglo Saxon England

Download or read book The Cruciform Brooch and Anglo Saxon England written by Toby F. Martin and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2015 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cruciform brooches were large and decorative items of jewellery, frequently used to pin together women's garments in pre-Christian northwest Europe. Characterised by the strange bestial visages that project from the feet of these dress and cloak fasteners, cruciform brooches were especially common in eastern England during the 5th and 6th centuries AD. This book provides a multifaceted, holistic and contextual analysis of more than 2,000 Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooches. It offers a critical examination of identity in Early Medieval society, suggesting that the idea of being Anglian in post-Roman Britain was not a primordial, tribal identity transplanted from northern Germany, but was at least partly forged through the repeated, prevalent use of dress and material culture.

Book Theoretical Damping in Roll and Rolling Effectiveness of Slender Cruciform Wings

Download or read book Theoretical Damping in Roll and Rolling Effectiveness of Slender Cruciform Wings written by Gaynor J. Adams and published by . This book was released on 1951 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coefficients of damping in roll and rolling effectiveness (with differential incidence of the horizontal surfaces) are determined for a slender, equal-span, cruciform wing. It is found that the coefficient of damping in ar roll is 62 percent greater than for a plane slender wing of equal aspect ratio, and that the rolling effectiveness is 53 percent less than for a plane slender wing of equal aspect ratio. The analysis can be used in the estimation of the characteristics of a slender, equal-span, cruciform wing having any specified distribution of normal velocity components on the horizontal and vertical surfaces.

Book The Cruciform Faculty

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark H. Heinemann
  • Publisher : IAP
  • Release : 2016-12-01
  • ISBN : 1681236818
  • Pages : 78 pages

Download or read book The Cruciform Faculty written by Mark H. Heinemann and published by IAP. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do Christian higher education institutions orient new faculty members to their role on a Christian campus? How do they lead faculty members toward a deeper understanding of the Christian dimension of their place in higher education? Bible Colleges, Christian Universities, and Seminaries need a resource that can be provided to faculty members or be used in faculty development discussions. This book is designed to serve as just such a resource. It provides a clear and concise portrait of the general role of faculty from a distinctively evangelical Christian perspective. We use the metanarrative of being formed by the cross to describe the “cruciform” role of professors as teachers in the classroom, mentors to the students, scholars within the academy, and servants of the church and community. Each chapter will have personal and group reflection questions and exercises to aid in application.

Book Inhabiting the Cruciform God

Download or read book Inhabiting the Cruciform God written by Michael J. Gorman and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2009-04-03 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly synthetic reading of Paul offers a compelling argument that the heart of Paul s soteriology lies in theosis the incorporation of God s people into the life and character of the God revealed in the cross. Michael Gorman deftly integrates the results of recent debates about Pauline theology into a powerful constructive account that overcomes unfruitful dichotomies and transcends recent controversies between the New Perspective on Paul and its traditionalist critics. Gorman s important book points the way forward for understanding the nonviolent, world-transforming character of Paul s gospel. Richard B. Hays / Duke Divinity School / Provides an important corrective to segmentalized approaches to Paul. Michael Gorman lucidly connects justification to spiritual transformation. Faith, love, and action come together as theosis the taking on of the character of Christ and, so, of God. Though constantly in conversation with other scholars, Gorman has a refreshingly original approach, illuminating the lively theology of Paul. Inhabiting the Cruciform God clearly advances the field of Pauline studies. Stephen Finlan / Fordham University / In this pioneering work Michael Gorman offers a fresh way to view Paul s understanding of justification and holiness. Cutting a new path through old territory, Gorman leads us to a vision of holiness and justification rooted in the transforming power of nonviolence and the cross. His work will provide pastors with new insights for preaching and scholars with new ways to address old questions. Frank J. Matera / Catholic University of America

Book Damping in Roll of Cruciform and Some Related Delta Wings at Supersonic Speeds

Download or read book Damping in Roll of Cruciform and Some Related Delta Wings at Supersonic Speeds written by Herbert S. Ribner and published by . This book was released on 1951 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The damping in roll of cruciform delta wings in supersonic flow has been evaluated by means of small-disturbance (linearized) wing theory; both subsonic and supersonic component stream velocities normal to the leading edges have been considered. In addition, some known two-dimensional results for rotating multibladed laminae have been applied to obtain the loading when the number of panels is changed from four to an arbitrary number, under the restriction of low aspect ratio; the damping in roll has been determined explicitly for three panels. Finally, the damping for an inifinite number of panels has been evaluated without restriction as to aspect ratio or Mach number.

Book Aerodynamic Properties of Cruciform wing and Body Combinations at Subsonic  Transonic  and Supersonic Speeds

Download or read book Aerodynamic Properties of Cruciform wing and Body Combinations at Subsonic Transonic and Supersonic Speeds written by John R. Spreiter and published by . This book was released on 1949 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aerodynamic forces and moments exerted on pitched and yawed wing-body combinations consisting of a slender body of revolution and a cruciform arrangement of thin wings have been investigated by two theoretical methods. One method, an extension of the slender wing-body theory of NACA TN No. 1662, makes possible the determination of simple closed expressions for the load distribution, of simple closed expressions for the load distribution, the forces, and the moments for slender cruciform-wing and body combinations in which the wings may be dissimilar plan form. The second method treats cruciform-wing and body combinations consisting of a body of revolution and identical wings of arbitrary aspect ratio and plan form. The results are valid at subsonic, transonic, and supersonic speeds.

Book New York Cruciform Lectionary

Download or read book New York Cruciform Lectionary written by Jeffrey C. Anderson and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For elegance and beauty, the Constantinopolitan scribes set standards rarely surpassed. The Gospel lectionary was among the books that attracted the most enthusiastic attention of scribes, illuminators, and their patrons. As an important liturgical item, the lectionary was often exquisitely decorated. The subject of this study, the lectionary in the Pierpont Morgan Library, is unusual even among such luxury manuscripts because its scribe laboriously copied every page of text in the shape of a cross. It is one of just three such manuscripts made in Constantinople around the middle of twelfth century, and it is the only one that contains narrative illustration. Jeffrey Anderson provides a full description of the manuscript, and he has translated and indexed its calendar of saints. Each of the miniatures is reproduced, described, and discussed, and Anderson relates some scenes to versions found in other Byzantine lectionaries and Gospels. The illustrations are attributed to two illuminators, and in a separate chapter Anderson situates their contributions with regard to the ruling, writing, and illumination of the pages. He also relates, through style, the cruciform lectionaries to dated twelfth-century monuments to establish their place in the history of Byzantine art.

  • Release : 2021-01-05
  • ISBN : 1467461903
  • Pages : 409 pages

Download or read book Cruciform Scripture written by Christopher W. Skinner and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to participate in the cruciform Lord Jesus Christ so that our life together becomes a living exegesis of the gospel? Michael Gorman has been tremendously influential in exploring this question within the New Testament, particularly in the letters of Paul, the Gospel of John, and the book of Revelation. His 2001 book Cruciformity: Paul’s Narrative Spirituality of the Cross inspired a generation of scholars and was the first in a trilogy of New Testament theology devoted to exploring the role of the cross, participation in Christ, and becoming the gospel in mission. Here, an assemblage of some of the best and brightest current New Testament exegetes honor Gorman’s work with contributions of their own, each of which further explores these three critical themes in various passages of the New Testament. Cruciform Scripture is more than a tribute to a giant of biblical scholarship. Its contributors (including N. T. Wright, Sylvia Keesmaat, and Richard Hays) are masters in their own right who offer incisive interpretations of essential themes of New Testament theology and the core concerns of Christian life in community. As they reason together in this volume, they amplify one another’s voices as well as Gorman’s, modeling a way that careful reflection on Paul’s determination to “know nothing . . . except Jesus Christ and him crucified” can engender fruitful insights on the nature of discipleship.
