Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guilt, Anger & God: The Patterns of Our Discontents 1-57383-262-6 C. FitzSimons Allison 164 pp. Drawing from what perceptive non-Christians such as Freud, D.H. Lawrence, Reich and Marcuse have said about the human condition, Allison examines four contemporary patterns of the discontents of modern humanity-Anger, Disesteem, Guilt and Death. Believing that Christianity has been hurt as much by its friends as by its enemies, with deep pastoral concern Allison addresses the anguish many Christians feel today. He then discusses the gospel and its timeless message to our discontents. Skeptics, both within and outside the Church who hunger for more than "bread alone" will find this book an occasion for delightful surprises. "This is one of the most stimulating and evocative book I have read for some time. It is by no means the old psychological/theological witches' brew but really relates Christian doctrine to current and future questions about our human destiny."-David H. C. Read Dr. Allison is retired Bishop of South Carolina. His other books include The Rise of Moralism and Guilt, Love and Worship.

Download or read book Sermons of Arthur C McGill written by Arthur C. McGill and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Arthur McGill had numerous opportunities to air his rich theological musings outside of the classroom. We are now fortunate, some twenty-five years after his death, to have seventeen sermons brought to us by the aid of his wife Lucille McGill and editor David Cain (University of Mary Washington). These homilies reveal the core themes that distinguish his theological writings: relaxing in our neediness before God, participating in the death-to-life pattern of self-expenditure, and rooting our hope in the unique power of Christ. The collection culminates with what Cain notes as McGill's signature sermon on The Good Samaritan, wherein we see that the reception of grace always precedes the extension of grace. In addressing day-to-day issues such as possessions, speech, loneliness, and anger, McGill is both prophetic and pastoral. He does not hesitate to say that the wickedness of Nineveh--alas!--is the wickedness of the United States. At the same time, he brings a refreshing word with theological depth about human suffering and the God who models ultimate vulnerability. This book is Theological Fascinations, Volume One, marking the hope that further volumes might emerge from the papers of Arthur C. McGill, evidencing the richness of his theological fascinations.
Download or read book Theodicy and Spirituality in the Fourth Gospel written by Daniel DeForest London and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel DeForest London argues that the Fourth Gospel offers a potentially transformative response to the question of suffering and the human compulsion to blame. Based on his reading of John 9 (the man born blind), London argues that the Gospel does not offer a theodicy, but rather a theodical spirituality, an experience of praying the question of suffering and remaining open to a divine response. London shows how the Johannine Jesus’s response poses three sets of symbols in dichotomy (day/night, vision/blindness, sheep/wolf), each subverted by another, core symbol (light, judge, shepherd). By interpreting these symbols in light of mimetic theory, he argues that Jesus’s response reveals the scapegoat mechanism in which an innocent victim is blamed by violent victimizers. However, rather than blaming the victimizers, Jesus continues to engage with the characters who appear to be villains: the light of the world transforms night and day into one continuous day; the Good Shepherd welcomes sheep and wolf into his beloved flock. In this way, readers are invited to bring to the Johannine Jesus their own violence, resentment, and wolfish rage regarding the question of suffering and to experience the theodical spirituality of the Fourth Gospel.
Download or read book Wandering through Guilt written by Paola Di Gennaro and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-18 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive study on the pattern of guilt and wandering in literature, this book examines the relationship between the two complex concepts as they appear in twentieth-century novels, positing its methodological premises on archetypal criticism and both close and distant reading, but also drawing on psychology, anthropology, mythology, and religion. This research deciphers a common paradigm and literary representation whose archetype within Western literature is found in the biblical figure of Cain, while presenting a critical framework valid for boundary-crossing comparative approaches. From Graham Greene’s The Power and the Glory and Malcolm Lowry’s Under the Volcano, to Wolfgang Koeppen’s Death in Rome and Ōoka Shōhei’s Fires on the Plain, this book is not merely a thematic study, but an analysis of the literary phenomena that appear in those novels where the sense of guilt is controversially subjective, or so collective as to be perceived as universal, as is often the case with war and postwar literature. Di Gennaro goes beyond the analysis of explicit rewritings of the story of Cain, in order to uncover the monomyth through its rhetorical structures and mythical methods. The wasteland with no religion; the lost, abandoned garden; the classical and religiously-corrupted city; and the tropical, cannibalistic island at war are the respective settings of these narratives, where the issue is neither homelessness nor journeying, but, rather, the desperate and futile movement toward self-consciousness, or self-destruction. After the Second World War, much was silenced rather than left unsaid. This study retraces those silent cries over history through the powerful literary marks of myths.
Download or read book Walking Each Other Home written by Jean Denton and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia changes everything—and not just for the person who receives the diagnosis. Each of the 5.6 million Americans with dementia has one or more caregivers struggling to make meaning while watching their loved one’s personality vanish. The caregiver is sure to be changed—not only by the myriad tasks and responsibilities, but by the soul-searching questions: Dare I hope? Who’s to blame? What do I do with my anger? Where’s God in this? These questions of doubt, guilt, intimacy, depression, and acceptance are ultimately questions of spirit. This book is distinctive: it directly addresses the spiritual needs of the caregiver. It invites the reader to explore his or her own spiritual journey rather than offering pre-determined answers. Appropriate, both for people with faith and people without religion, it encourages dementia caregivers to probe their spiritual questions along with a sympathetic author, one who walked her husband through early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

Book excerpt: The Quest: To pass through conscript meaning, enter the emotional-sensorial parallel, feel deeply and bring forth the full essence of whole consciousness. Born With Five Perfectly Balanced Senses, the human mind is bathed in dynamic sensing. In mathematical terms, this represents five to the fifth power conscious awareness. Are you aware that the creature-being exists within an encoded/emotional first voice that is immediately activated at birth? Is Fear Your Friend or Enemy? When fear is your enemy, you lose your essence. Did you know that knowledge has no essence? Do You Think Your Feelings Belong To You? They do not–via psychological implant, losses or gains are predetermined circumstances governed by the word sanction given to others. What Makes The Idea Of Truth a Hypocrisy? Can you define fact as anything more than mental impasse or define truth as more than paradoxical conscription? The Word–Language is a mono-dimensional syllabus and noun-verb inversion that is unfit for an essenced creature–the human being. Are you using your first voice to access total consciousness rather than remembering performance-rated acts? How do you stimulate and use this natural treasure? Once you learn how to enter the world of emotion... your feelings will evolve and take flight! The RIP will remain as one of the most important, fresh and poignant works to eclipse this century. Until you read The RIP, who and what you are will never be as clear.

Download or read book Guilt written by June Hunt and published by Rose Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you living life with a master list of “Do’s and Don’ts” in your heart? Do you feel free—unburdened by sin and guilt? Or, are you still dealing with guilt . . . still dealing with shame? When your faith produces false guilt and shame rather than reduce guilt, then you may have adopted a wrong perspective of God, thinking he expects you to be a perfectionist. This Christian book, Guilt, by June Hunt shows how to trade the burden of guilt and sin for the freedom found in God’s truth and light. The more you know the true characteristics of God—love, grace, mercy, and forgiveness—the less “false” guilt and shame you will experience in relation to your own sin. There are all types of guilt; from the normal expression you feel when you actually are at fault to false guilt related to self-condemnation and unmet expectations. This Christian book explains the characteristics of false guilt, the negative mindsets that come from false guilt, the sources of false guilt, the physical symptoms of unresolved guilt, and the difference between guilt-ridden reactions to criticism and guilt-free responses. It also walks you through how to let go of guilt and accept God’s freedom—for good. In Guilt: Living Guilt Free, June Hunt gives you practical advice on how to: Set and reach new target goals (new priorities, purpose, and plan) Distinguish true guilt from false accusations Recognize Satan’s lies Forgive yourself and accept forgiveness Live a guilt-free life God uses guilt to get our attention, but He never designed guilt to distress us forever. Learn how to identify true guilt that can lead us into healthy growth from false guilt that burdens us with shame. God set you free-learn how to live in the freedom he promises you!
