Download or read book Joan of Arc and the God of the Bible Revised and Expanded Edition 2013 written by Chris Snidow and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint? Witch? Holy warrior? Agent of the devil? Lucky peasant? Adolescent prophet? 15th century mystic? God sent? Whatever the case, at seventeen years old Joan of Arc remains the youngest supreme military commander (male or female) in history. Her story attracts Catholics, Protestants, and nonbelievers alike. Her well documented accomplishments are universally accepted. But the question remains: HOW was she able to save France during the 15th century? Joan, for her part, always claimed that she was sent by God. But could this really be true? Although much has been written about her, no scripturally based examination of her case has been recorded. Until now. In Joan of Arc and the God of the Bible-Revised and Expanded Edition 2013, author Chris Snidow studies the many parallels between Joan and the saints and prophets of the Bible, providing striking and undeniable similarities between these powerful witnesses for God. Her interactions with God's messengers, fulfilled prophesies, humble spirit, bold actions, love of God, and prayer-centered life are all consistent with those of the great prophet/saints of Scripture. People have wrestled with the supernatural aspects of her case for centuries. Here and now, during this time of increasing New Age and other spiritualities, Joan of Arc makes a powerful witness for the triune God of the Bible. "This book is a fascinating read! I have thoroughly enjoyed learning more about ...how she has been a neglected figure among Protestants especially. Her life as revealed in this book is an inspiration and she is a true hero of the faith. What a fascinating figure!" S. Michael Craven, Center for Christ & Culture "Excellent work! Very interesting; FIVE stars..I have seen no others like it. Excellent study of Joan in relationship to the Bible.

Well researched, and written...I HIGHLY recommend this book." ReviewScout.co.uk. "A great success!...not your typical Joan of Arc book, one full of scholastic, boring pretentiousness.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witch? Saint? Agent of the devil? Holy warrior? Accused of being the devil's pawn in 1430, Joan of Arc was eventually burned at the stake for witchcraft. But was she really a witch? At seventeen years of age, she remains the youngest supreme military commander (male or female) in history, and the most attested person up to the sixteenth century. Her well documented accomplishments are universally accepted. Her story attracts Protestants, Catholics, and non-believers alike. But HOW was she able to save France during the 15th century? After all, women's rights weren't exactly in the forefront at that time. For Joan, the answer was never complicated. She was sent by God. And not just any god, but the God of the Bible. Could this really be true? If so, then there is much to learn from her story. In Joan of Arc and the God of the Bible-THE WITCH THAT WASN'T, author Chris Snidow examines the many parallels and similarities between Joan and the prophet/saints of the Bible, providing striking and undeniable evidence between these powerful witnesses for God. Her prayer-centered life, humble spirit, interactions with God's messengers, bold actions, love of God, unlikely but consistently fulfilled prophesies...these are all traits seen in the great prophet/saints of Scripture. Joan was the game-changer of her time and place, and after her, France would forever be free of the English, and take its influential place in European history. People have wrestled with the supernatural aspects of Joan of Arc's case for centuries. But here and now, during this time of increasing New Age spirituality, Mr. Snidow's scripturally based examination reveals Joan as a powerful witness for the God of the Bible.

Download or read book Joan of Arc written by Deborah A. Fraioli and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2000 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Does] an immense service to anyone interested in Joan of Arc... skillfully disentangles countless textual threads, all centered around one problem: the nature of Joan's mission as it was examined in the early theological debates... A thorough and timely book. MYSTICS QUARTERLY Joan of Arc arrived at the French court claiming to be sent by God to come to the aid of the dauphin Charles. Most studies of Joan focus on her political expediency, but the starting point of this book is her assertion that she was sent by God: it is the first real exploration of the application of the Catholic doctrine of discretio spirituum [the discernment of spirits] to her case, and of her reception as a visionary woman. The author examines contemporary theological documents which show genuine debate about Joan's mission and whether she was diabolically or divinely inspired, also taking into account the two major literary works dealing with her, Christine de Pizan's Ditie de Jehanne d'Arc and Martin Le Franc's Le champion des dames, as well as Joan's own letter to the English. Appendices offer translations of pertinent Latin and French texts. Professor DEBORAH FRAIOLI teaches in the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures at Simmons College, Boston.

Download or read book Transforming Updated and Expanded Edition with Study Guide written by Austen Hartke and published by Presbyterian Publishing Corp. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2014, Time magazine announced that America had reached “the transgender tipping point,” suggesting that transgender issues would become the next civil rights frontier. Years later, many people—even many LGBTQIA+ allies—still lack understanding of gender identity and the transgender experience. Into this void, trans biblical scholar Austen Hartke brings a biblically based, educational, and affirming resource to shed light and wisdom on gender expansiveness and Christian theology. This new edition offers updated terminology and statistics, plus new materials for congregational study, preaching, and pastoral care. Transforming deftly weaves ancient and modern stories that will change the way readers think about gender, the Bible, and the faith to which Jesus calls us. Hartke helps readers visualize a more inclusive Christianity, equipping them with the language, understanding, confidence, and tools to change both the church and the world.

Download or read book Joan of Arc written by and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sourcebook collects together for the first time in English the major documents relating to the life and contemporary reputation of Joan of Arc. Also known as La Pucelle, she led a French Army against the English in 1429, arguably turning the course of the war in favour of the French king Charles VII. The fact that she achieved all of this when just a seventeen-year-old peasant girl highlights the magnitude of her achievements and also opens up other ways of looking at her story. For many, Joan represents the voice of ordinary people in the fifteenth century; the victims of high politics and warfare that devastated France. Her story ended tragically in 1431 when she was put on trial for heresy and sorcery by an ecclesiastical court and was burned at the stake. This book shows how the trial, which was organised by her enemies, provides an important window into late medieval attitudes towards religion and gender, as Joan was effectively persecuted by the established Church for her supposedly non-conformist views on spirituality and the role of women. Presented within a contextual and critical framework, this book encourages scholars and students to rethink this remarkable story. It will be invaluable reading for those working in the fields of medieval society and heresy, as well as the Hundred Years’ War.
