Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One day Fearful is weeding in Prince Iniquity's gardens but cannot concentrate on her work. She is mourning her mother's death. She is also trying to understand why her father ran away from the Land of Enslavement to serve King Holy One in the Land of Promise. If King Holy One is so loving, why did He allow her mother to be killed by Prince Iniquity? Fearful may be inexperienced, but she knows that is not kindness! For this reason, she feels deeply alone. She is grateful for the presence of her friends, and the care of an adopted granny. Yet, they are just as broken and trapped as she is. She is unaware that everything she knows is about to be thrown into upheaval. The Overseer suddenly calls her out of the gardens for she has been summoned to Prince Iniquity's courtroom. Trembling with terror, she runs to the castle where she is presented with a mind-boggling opportunity. Prince Anointed One, son of King Holy One, requests that she travel with Him to the Land of Promise to decide if she would want to serve King Holy One. A slave being allowed to choose whom she will serve? What a bizarre concept! Yet, Prince Anointed One insists that is the law of the universe. So, with much trepidation, Fearful sets out with Prince Anointed One through the desert. In this desert, she is tormented by anxieties about Prince Iniquity's cruelty. He is known to take sadistic pleasure in torturing slaves. She also discovers Prince Anointed One is nothing like she had imagined. She wonders if His kindness is a façade. Questions hound her steps as she journeys through the desert. When she receives answers, it seems more questions and concerns arise. Will she lose her friends if she chooses to follow Prince Anointed One? They are all she has now that her grandparents and mother are dead, and her father is gone serving King Holy One. What is this mysterious desire that has been aroused in her? Then some questions Prince Anointed One and her father claim they cannot answer, to F

Download or read book The Fearful Void written by Geoffrey Moorhouse and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'It was because I was afraid that I had decided to attempt a crossing of the great Sahara desert, from west to east, by myself and by camel. No one had ever made such a journey before . . .' In October 1972 Geoffrey Moorhouse began his odyssey across the Sahara from the Atlantic to the Nile, a distance of 3,600 miles. His reason for undertaking such an immense feat was to examine the roots of his fear, to explore an extremity of human experience. From the outset misfortune was never far away; and as he moved further into that 'awful emptiness' the physical and mental deprivation grew more intense. In March 1973, having walked the last 300 miles, Moorhouse, ill and exhausted, reached Tamanrasset, where he decided to end his journey. The Fearful Void is the moving record of his struggle with fear and loneliness and, ultimately, his coming to terms with the spiritual as well as the physical dangers of the desert.

Download or read book Beyond Fear written by Joel P. Kramer and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The island of New Guinea has long been a land shrouded in mystery, living up to its ominous reputation as the "Land of the Unexpected." When Joel Kramer and Aaron Lippard, two young explorers from Salt Lake City, Utah, set out on their own to cross the entire island of New Guinea without the use of motors, almost everyone said it was impossible and that they would surely die. To fulfill their dream, Kramer and Lippard must depart from Wewak on the north side of the island and travel in a tiny inflatable kayak over remote rivers and swamps and hike over rugged interior mountains, covered in dense jungle. They must face ferocious man-eating crocodiles that can sneak up on and ravage a man in a death twirl in a matter of seconds; a relentless onslaught of blood-sucking leeches, deadly malaria-carrying mosquitoes, and black flies; raging whitewater rivers and whirlpools; and a Stone Age tribe of cannibals before they reach their destination of Daru on New Guinea's southern coast. The young men begin their journey as complete strangers. Learning to travel with one another under such extreme conditions at times seems less bearable to them than the chronic life-or-death situation at hand. However, what they learn about themselves, one another, and the human capacity for survival will change them indelibly and take them to an extraordinary emotional and physical place beyond their fears.

Download or read book Desert Travel as a Form of Boasting written by Georgia-Nepheli Papoutsakis and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boasting about one's travels through the desert was a very common topic of self-praise in early Arabic poetry (ca. 500-750). Desert crossing would attest to a man's character, providing evidence of his valour, stamina, industriousness and ambition. The book focuses on desert travel as a self-praise theme in early Arabic poetry and especially in the work of the Umayyad poet Dur-Rumma (ca. 695-735), one of the last great exponents of the Bedouin poetic tradition. It discusses the various motifs associated with desert travel in Dur-Rumma and traces their antecedents in the work of earlier poets. By analyzing the diachronic development of the travel theme and evaluating its place within the poem as a whole, it challenges the widespread view of the Arabic ode (qasida) as a tripartite composition and contributes to a better understanding of early Arabic poetics. For despite the fact that desert travel was a central theme of early poetry, it has never been studied in detail and its purport as a theme of self-praise has not been generally recognized.

Download or read book A Theology of Justice in Exodus written by Nathan Bills and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the theme of justice throughout the narrative of Exodus in order to explicate how yhwh’s reclamation of Israel for service-worship reveals a distinct theological ethic of justice grounded in yhwh’s character and Israel’s calling within yhwh’s creational agenda. Adopting a synchronic, text-immanent interpretive strategy that focuses on canonical and inner-biblical connections, Nathan Bills identifies two overlapping motifs that illuminate the theme of justice in Exodus. First, Bills considers the importance of Israel’s creation traditions for grounding Exodus’s theology of justice. Reading Exodus against the backdrop of creation theology and as a continuation of the plot of Genesis, Bills shows that the ethical disposition of justice imprinted on Israel in Exodus is an application of yhwh’s creational agenda of justice. Second, Bills identifies an educational agenda woven throughout the text. The narrative gives heightened attention to the way yhwh catechizes Israel in what it means to be the particular beneficiary and creational emissary of yhwh’s justice. These interpretative lenses of creation theology and pedagogy help to explain why Israel’s salvation and shaping embody a programmatic applicability of yhwh’s justice for the wider world. This volume will be of substantial interest to divinity students and religious professionals interested in the themes of exodus, exile, and return.
