Book excerpt: “A treasure...a wise and entertaining book that should appeal to the spiritual pilgrim in all of us, no matter what the faith and no matter whether believer or nonbeliever.” – Chicago Tribune The New York Times bestselling author of The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything and Jesus: A Pilgrimage turns his attention to the relationship between LGBT Catholics and the Church in this loving, inclusive, and revolutionary book. A powerful call for tolerance, acceptance, and support—and a reminder of Jesus' message for us to love one another. In this moving and inspiring book, Martin offers a powerful, loving, and much-needed voice in a time marked by anger, prejudice, and divisiveness. On the day after the Orlando nightclub shooting, James Martin S.J. posted a video on Facebook in which he called for solidarity with our LGBT brothers and sisters. "The largest mass shooting in US history took place at a gay club and the LGBT community has been profoundly affected," he began. He then implored his fellow Catholics—and people everywhere—to "stand not only with the people of Orlando but also with their LGBT brothers and sisters." Father Martin's post went viral and was viewed more than 1.6 million times. Adapted from an address he gave to New Ways Ministry, a group that ministers to and advocates for LGBT Catholics, Building a Bridge provides a roadmap for repairing and strengthening the bonds that unite all of us as God's children. Martin uses the image of a two-way bridge to enable LGBT Catholics and the Church to come together in a call to end the "us" versus "them" mentality. Turning to the Catechism, he draws on the three criteria at the heart of the Christian ministry—"respect, compassion, and sensitivity"—as a model for how the Catholic Church should relate to the LGBT community. WINNER OF THE LIVING NOW BOOK AWARD IN SOCIAL ACTIVISM/CHARITY.

Book Building the Brooklyn Bridge  1869 1883  An Illustrated History  with Images in 3D

Download or read book Building the Brooklyn Bridge 1869 1883 An Illustrated History with Images in 3D written by Jeffrey I. Richman and published by Bauer and Dean Publishers. This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building the Brooklyn Bridge reminds us of the historic importance of this iconic bridge that was once considered the eighth wonder of the world. It opened up development across the East River and made travel between the two independent cities of Brooklyn and New York quicker and more reliable; especially once the bridge railway was fully operational in September 1883, four months after the bridge's opening. Historian Jeffrey Richman describes in engaging detail how the Brooklyn Bridge was built over fourteen years and clearly explains the function of each of its parts, from the anchorages to the massive cables. The story of the construction is also told through 255 remarkable images, many never before published, including 44 images in 3D, specially created for this book. These historic photographs, woodcuts, color lithographs, and engineering drawings take us back in time to when all of America, and much of the world, watched with excitement as a singular bridge of unprecedented size and technology was built over one of the busiest waterways in the world. The book illuminates long-forgotten details and presents the bridge as the engineering marvel that it is-one that still elicits awe and admiration. This is an incredible journey back in time to when all of America-and much of the world-excitedly watched as the Brooklyn Bridge was being built. Reading the book will be a real treat to anyone who has ever stepped onto this beloved icon and been moved by its majesty. A pair of 3D glasses is included with every copy of the book.

Book Building Bridges

Download or read book Building Bridges written by Bridge Builders Class and published by . This book was released on 2004-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nostalgia--Chuckles--Wisdom--Lessons from Life--Building Bridges That's what thirty members of the Bridge Builders class at Forest Lake Seventh-day Adventist Church share with the reader. Faced with the challenge, "Everybody has a story--what's yours?" these writers open their lives through their stories, whether it is a mini-autobiography or a vignette of a never-to-be-forgotten experience. Stories hold us together. Young and not-so-young readers will be reminded that even though circumstances may be different today than years ago, the principle still holds true that "Young people still rise to our expectation of them." Will Allen Dromgoole writes of an old man who, after crossing a stream, built a bridge. When questioned why he would do such a thing after he had already crossed, he replied, " . . . there followeth after me today a youth whose feet must pass this way . . . Good friend, I am building the bridge for him." That's what we hope these stories will do--Build Bridges! Forest Lake Seventh-day Adventist Church is located on Highway 436, Apopka, Florida (Orlando is a suburb of Apopka!)
