Stephen John MARCH is an applied theologian who served in France as an ecumenical missionary practitioner for 14 years and who now heads up a 'Fresh Expressions' project in an Anglican parish in Leicester, England. A fascinated student of the earlier (and less widely known) parts of Church history, he seeks to share with others the wonder, encouragement and help he has found in studying these texts. Evangelism has been described as 'One beggar telling another beggar where to find bread'; it is in that spirit that this book is offered to a wider reading public.

Download or read book As Pilgrims Progress Learning how Christians can walk hand in hand when they don t see eye to eye written by Stephen John March and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for Roman Catholic and Evangelical Protestant lay people who wonder what relationship, if any, they might have with their friends who come from a different Christian faith tradition than their own. The authors aim to address that question in a practical way. They believe that while disagreements remain, it is possible to preserve the integrity of the faith while relating positively to Christians who cherish other beliefs. The opinions expressed in this book grew out of nearly thirty years of experience as evangelical protestant missionaries ministering in catholic parish communities in France. The goal of the book is to move the readers beyond simply understanding each other, to a place where they might begin using their diversity to stimulate and encourage each other in our common pursuit of obedient discipleship. We know of no other book which targets ecumenical lay relations in this way.

Download or read book Rooted and Rising written by Leah D. Schade and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rooted and Rising is for everyone who worries about the climate crisis and seeks spiritual practices and perspectives to renew their capacity for compassionate, purposeful, and joyful action. Leah Schade and Margaret Bullitt-Jonas gather twenty-one faith leaders, scientists, community organizers, theologians, and grassroots climate activists to offer wisdom for fellow pilgrims grappling with the weight of climate change. Acknowledging the unprecedented nature of our predicament—the fact that climate disruption is unraveling the web of life and threatening the end of human civilization—the authors share their stories of grief and hope, fear and faith. Together, the essays, introductory sections, and discussion questions reveal that our present crisis can elicit a depth of wisdom, insight, and motivation with power to guide us toward a more peaceful, just, and Earth-honoring future. With a foreword by Mary Evelyn Tucker and a special introduction by Bill McKibben, the book presents an interfaith perspective that welcomes and challenges readers of all backgrounds.
Download or read book Srila Prabhupada lilamrta volume 1 written by Satsvarupa Dasa Goswami and published by The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust. This book was released on with total page 1279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Srila Prabhupada-lilamrta tells the story of a remarkable individual and a remarkable achievement. The individual is A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada: philosopher, scholar, religious leader, saint. The achievement is the revolutionary transplantation of a timeless spiritual culture from ancient India to twentieth-century America. This first of two volumes begins with the story of the events leading up to Srila Prabhupada's meeting his guru, an encounter that ignited in Srila Prabhupada a slowburning flame of desire to take Krishna consciousness to the Western world. His early life was a period of patient and transcendent determination as he prepared for a mission that would later be crowned with astounding success. In August and September of 1965 Srila Prabhupada traveled alone aboard a steamship from India to New York City, with no more than the equivalent of eight dollars in his pocket and no institutional backing, but with unshakable faith in Lord Krishna and the instructions of his spiritual master. It is the 1960s, an era in which the children of those who fought World War II were leading a sweeping revolt against a society losing its soul to godless mass consumerism. Into this milieu Srila Prabhupada brought a vision for a new kind of society, a society born of a radical transformation of human consciousness from materialism to the loftiest spiritual and ethical idealism. By 1967 he had arrived in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district, America's counter-culture capital, where he continued his work of calling America's youth to live up to their higher spiritual ideals and distributing the holy name of Krishna indiscriminately. By the end of the volume, we have seen Srila Prabhupada in England (meeting the Beatles), Holland, Japan, Africa, and finally back in India, where he triumphantly returned with his "dancing white elephants" – a group of his mostly Caucasian Western followers. The research team assembled by the author traveled throughout the world to gather thousands of hours of interviews with hundreds of people who knew Srila Prabhupada; diaries and memoirs from his students; and more than seven thousand of Srila Prabhupada's letters. Then the author and his team distilled this voluminous firsthand source material into a rich composite view of Srila Prabhupada, a dazzling and colorful picture of one of the most remarkable lives of our times.

Download or read book Pilgrims and Pilgrimages as Peacemakers in Christianity Judaism and Islam written by Antón M. Pazos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrimages can be analysed as acts of conflict - such as the Crusades - or also as platforms for relationship building and rapprochement between religions. With a set of contributions from leading experts in the field, this book explores the concept of pilgrimage in Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Some specific examples of pilgrimages that helped to strengthen links between different religions or civilisations are explored, ranging from Europe to Asia and from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century. Even though every pilgrimage that is investigated here has helped to link different worlds, the case studies show that this relationship rarely led to a better in inter-understanding. Nowadays, peaceful coexistence seems to be its greatest achievement.
Download or read book Fuel for Pilgrims Volume Three written by Stephen John March and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-01-23 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrimage is a very rich metaphor for the Christian life. It evokes much that is foundational for an authentic self-understanding as a disciple of Jesus. Each of these books contains 40 individual meditations that are designed to give pilgrims 'fuel' for the journey. These meditations will inspire faith, encourage self-reflection, and help the reader to set their own spiritual life in the context of Christian discipleship down through the millennia. The individual meditations are inspired by an eclectic mix of sources- Scripture, Christian hagiography, Church History, contemporary events, and scientific discovery. Each meditation is accompanied by questions which guide personal meditation, as well as suggestions for a prayer response. Although these books are suitable for private use, it is hoped that groups will use them with private daily use being augmented by group time of sharing and praying together. Suited for Lent/Advent use.
