Book excerpt: Life in the clergy is quiet, respectful, peaceful, or so Callie Anson believes when she begins her new job as curate to the Reverend Brian Stanford at All Saints' Church in Paddington. Little does she realize how wrong she could be. After the traumatic end of her relationship with fiancé Adam, the last thing Callie needs is more emotional turmoil. But it seems she is not destined for a quiet life just yet. Knowing that women in the clergy are still disapproved of in certain quarters, Callie is prepared to face some criticism. But the deep-seated hatred shown by some of her respected male colleagues takes her by surprise, particularly the spiteful attack made by Father Jonah Adimola, a hard-line conservative Nigerian priest. Luckily, her good friend and mentor Frances Cherry is on hand to jump to her defense. But when Father Adimola is found strangled to death the next day and Frances is suspected of the crime, Callie must call upon her faith to steer her through the troubling and violent times and help prove her friend's innocence. With DI Neville Stewart heading the investigation, it's not long before the ecclesiastical facade is chipped away to reveal the ugly truth of hidden secrets. Evil Intent is a gripping crime novel that pitches the reader into a dark world of concealment, power and deception in the 21st century church.

Download or read book Deliver Us From Evil written by Dr. Arnold O. Thompson and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deliver Us from Evil: A Prayer for Our Times is a book written for the volatile evil times in which we live and what primarily the Christian church needs to know and do about it. Its purpose is to move beyond the performance stage to view the backstage, to look behind at the often unrecognized spiritual and evil infrastructure that constantly influence and corrupt what we see on the world’s popular stage. It explains why truth on every level is under attacked. It exposed the satanic strategy of lies, camouflage, hidden agendas, hidden spiritual wars that contribute to evil in the world. It reveals the many ways in which the Christian church is being dragged into wars God did not call us to fight, while neglecting the one he called us to fight. It reveals why the evangelical church is so deadly silent about God’s good news to our world while evil news is always viral in our times. Most of all, this book lays out how we must fight our battles. It reveals the detailed biblical battle plan God gave his followers to follow, to fight, and to win. It shows the path back to the real spiritual war against evil God called his people to engage. It delivers the often hidden foundational reason and purpose for Christ’s prophetic prayer to his followers. This book shows Jesus’s prayer was meant particularly for our times and dispensation just before he returns to finally and ultimately “deliver us from evil.” It is one of the most important Christian books for survival for the Christian church’s effective witness in our times.
Download or read book Evil and or as the Good written by Brook Ziporyn and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Other than the devil, there is no Buddha; other than the Buddha, there is no devil.” The Chinese monk Siming Zhili (960–1028) uttered this remark as part of his justification for his self-immolation. An exposition of the intent, implications, and resonances of this one sentence, this book expands and unravels the context in which the seeming paradox of the ultimate identity of good and evil is to be understood. In analyzing this idea, Brook Ziporyn provides an overview of the development of Tiantai thought from the fifth through the eleventh centuries in China and contributes to our understanding of Chinese intellectual culture and Chinese Buddhism, as well as to basic ontological, epistemological, and axiological issues of interest in modern philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's Scripture Guidance contains daily Scripture from the Word of God to guide Believers and those who want to have detailed Holy Spirit guidance. Each daily Scripture is received from God through the servant of Jesus prayer to Him. The servant of Jesus surrenders to Jesus in prayer each day, asking Him to utilize the Holy Spirit to meet God and receive the Scripture that God wants His people to read that day. The servant of Jesus also asks that Jesus calls the Holy Spirit to send Spirit-taught words through the servant, that gives Spirit guidance of the very Word of God. This prayer and surrender process is done by the servant of Jesus each day so that every single day of Scripture is from God, and every single day of guidance to the Word of God is from the Holy Spirit. The Word and the guidance of God's Word is not from the servant of Jesus but is delivered through the servant of Jesus. This is the work that Jesus has called this servant to do. Amen. Today's Scripture Guidance is from the very Word of God. It is spoken boldly with Spirit-taught words. The guidance is there each day to help the readers of God's Word, understand the mystery of His Word, through words delivered by the Holy Spirit. Today's Scripture Guidance delivers daily reading and guidance to strengthen your understanding of the Word of God and to guide you through living your life in a way that pleases God. This Guidance will help you to truly understand the Word of God. Each day the Word was selected by God, and the guidance was delivered with Spirit taught Words from the Holy Spirit! Hallelujah!

Download or read book Contexts of Deviance written by J. William Spencer and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2014-09-12 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most readers focus more on deviance than sociology, Contexts of Deviance: Statuses, Institutions, and Interactions brings sociology front and center by examining deviance and social control in their social contexts. This fresh and innovative anthology shows students how deviance and control can be studied at different levels of analysis and from a range of theoretical approaches using different methodologies. The collection is divided into six parts: theory, social control, statuses and identities, institutions, subcultures, and social movements. The readings range from classic to contemporary pieces, from macro-level studies to studies of face-to-face encounters. Contexts of Deviance also represents a wide range of theoretical traditions--from functionalist and critical to post-modern and interactionist. Introductions in each section help students to understand what it means to study deviance and control in a social context, to appreciate research questions at different levels of analysis, and to recognize how a positivist orientation is different from a subjectivist orientation. An instructor's manual and test bank prepared by Thomas N. Ratliff (Arkansas State University), Jessica Middleton (University of California at Irvine), and Ashley Swan (Arkansas State University) are available for qualified instructors.

Download or read book People of the Way written by Kurt Struckmeyer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-04-05 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In first-century Palestine, the countercultural Jesus movement defied the social norms of the Roman Empire by creating alternative communities of shared life and goods in service to the poor. Jesus proclaimed an unconventional society that challenged systems of male domination, social inequality, economic disparity, and violence. This way of life defined Christianity for three hundred years until the emperor Constantine invited the church to help rule an empire, and its countercultural lifestyle was replaced by a dogmatic belief system. In the postmodern secular world of the Global North, the shrinking church has lost its prophetic voice and has proven ineffectual in the face of evil and injustice. This book is a call to return to the countercultural Way of Jesus. It proposes a way forward through the creation of new communities of resistance—small cells of cultural nonconformity that conspire for justice and strive for peace in the world.
