Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent Year for Priests focused considerable attention on the priesthood, resulting in many books, articles, retreats, conferences, and symposia. In Gold Tested in Fire, Ronald D. Witherup, SS, makes an important new contribution. Intersecting scriptural and theological context with lived pastoral insight, Witherup explores both classic and contemporary understandings of the priesthood, offers insights into the four pillars" suggested for priestly formation, and looks at the charism of priests, and the need for ongoing formation across a life-span. Having engaged in priestly formation in seminaries for a number of years, Witherup moves beyond overly idealized or pietistic approaches to the presbyteral life to offer key insights on the challenges and rewards inherent in contemporary priestly ministry. Underlying his approach is the firm conviction that the present testing in the priesthood is a profound summons to a new Pentecost, inopportunity for the priesthood to be cleansed and remade, and ultimately stronger.

Download or read book Gold In Quartz written by Ronald von Freymann and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold-in-Quartz, a Jewelry Hunter Thriller It has been a year since an Islamic cleric declared a fatwa against Bill and Jenn for averting a terrorist plot to blow up two fully loaded passenger ferries off the southern coast of California. Now, the Watsons must contend with another group of murderous thugs. While on a jewelry buying trip in Northern California's Gold Country, the Watsons inadvertently stumble into a gruesome shooting at the Speckled Gold Mine. Suddenly propelled into a set of circumstances that grows more mysterious-and perilous-by the day, Bill and Jenn soon find themselves in witness protection. But their new enemies are never very far behind. From the Gold Country to Catalina Island, to New York City to Paris, they are forced to rely on the FBI, the French police, and hefty measures of their own quick wits, intuition, and marksmanship to survive. When events lead them to Johannesburg, the Watsons and their allies-including the tough-talking, trigger-happy friend Tiffany and a drop-dead gorgeous FBI agent who refuses to carry a loaded weapon-must devise a plan to neutralize their adversary... before their luck runs out. In Praise Of Gold-in-Quartz, a Jewelry Hunter Thriller Reminiscent of police insider Joseph Wambaugh's novels set in California, jewelry trade insider Ron von Freymann's Jewelry Hunter saga has its roots in the Golden State. His second installment of the Jewelry Hunter series, Gold in Quartz, a Jewelry Hunter Thriller, grabs attention from the start with fast-paced action and crisp dialogue. Already in the fatwa cross hairs of devout fundamentalist Islamic believers seeking that coveted ticket to paradise, Bill and Jenn Watson fall into false accusations that propel them on a worldwide race to avoid assassination by a new group of vicious, dedicated murderers. Von Freymann is the master of a unique genre. Tom Anthony Amazon-Best Selling Author of Rebels of Mindanao

Download or read book Tempted and Tried written by Russell Moore and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although temptation is a common and well-acknowledged part of the human experience, few realize the truth behind temptation and fewer still know how to defeat it. Tempted and Tried will not reassure Christians by claiming that temptation is less powerful or less prevalent than it is; instead, it will prepare believers for battle by telling the truth about the cosmic war that is raging. Moore shows that the temptation of every Christian is part of a broader conspiracy against God, a conspiracy that confronts everyone who shares the flesh of Jesus through human birth and especially confronts those who share the Spirit of Christ through the new birth of redemption. Moore walks readers through the Devil's ancient strategies for temptation revealed in Jesus' wilderness testing. Moore considers how those strategies might appear in a contemporary context and points readers to a way of escape. Tempted and Tried will remind Christians that temptation must be understood in terms of warfare, encouraging them with the truth that victory has already been secured through the triumph of Christ.
