Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation speaks to the reality that we are caught in the fray of cosmic conflict. We are guilty. We've already been contaminated. But it's not too late for us to exit empire and enter the kingdom. We are yet both victim and victimizer. We have healing work to do, and we must take responsibility for the ways in which we have benefited from and been complicit with the religion of empire. This is the truth of Revelation. God wants to liberate us in body, heart, soul, and mind.Revelation reveals how scapegoating functions within empire to define its own boundaries and contours as being over and against wicked others.Revelation critiques wealth and shows that even in the first century there was prophetic critique against an economic system that was based on abundance for some, while exploiting the rest.Revelation demonstrates the importance of liturgy as something that forms people into the likeness of either empire or the lamb.Revelation reveals an alternative social order which becomes the center of resistance rooted in a vision of what the book describes as "the multitude."

Download or read book The Next Apocalypse written by Chris Begley and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this insightful book, an underwater archaeologist and survival coach shows how understanding the collapse of civilizations can help us prepare for a troubled future. Pandemic, climate change, or war: our era is ripe with the odor of doomsday. In movies, books, and more, our imaginations run wild with visions of dreadful, abandoned cities and returning to the land in a desperate attempt at survival. In The Next Apocalypse, archaeologist Chris Begley argues that we completely misunderstand how disaster works. Examining past collapses of civilizations, such as the Maya and Rome, he argues that these breakdowns are actually less about cataclysmic destruction than they are about long processes of change. In short: it’s what happens after the initial uproar that matters. Some people abandon their homes and neighbors; others band together to start anew. As we anticipate our own fate, Begley tells us that it was communities, not lone heroes, who survived past apocalypses—and who will survive the next. Fusing archaeology, survivalism, and social criticism, The Next Apocalypse is an essential read for anxious times.

Download or read book Journal Your Life s Journey written by Journal Your Life's Journey and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you harnessing the power of a journal? If you are going through life right now feeling like everything is out of control or that things are not happening the way you planned, you need a journal. I don't mean to be too direct, but it is time for you to discover why you feel the way you do and then figure out what to do about it. Or you can just write stuff in it! The great thing about a lined journal is you can make it into anything you want. A day timer, travel journal, diary, notebook for school, etc. If you need to write something down, a journal is the tool you need. If you want to use it for more than just a notepad then keep reading. Benefits Of Keeping A Journal Almost every successful person seems to have kept a journal in one form or another. Success in this case is not defined by money but overall happiness. Whether or not they called it journalingdoesn'tmatter as they kept a record of their goals, success, failures, feelings and their daily life. Your journal contains the answers to your most burning questions. It is literally the best self-help book you could ever read because it is all about you. Just some of the benefits of journaling are: Allows you to reflect on your life and the changes you are choosing to make or not make Clarifies your thinking and as Tony Robbins says "Clarity is Power" Houses all your million dollar ideas that normally get lost in all the noise of life Exposes repeated patterns of behaviors that get you the results you DON'T want Acts as a bucket for you to brain dump in - a cluttered mind leads to a disorganized life Revisits daily situations giving you a chance to look at it with a different perspective Doesn't crash and lose everything you put into it like electronics (just like electronics though don't get it wet) You may want to keep multiple journals. One that contains your truest and most secret feelings that you guard heavily, but need a way to express. Another that contains all those fantastic ideas, dreams and awesome goals. Maybe just something you doodle in. No matter how you use it getting into the daily habit of journaling has the potential to improve the quality of your life. How To Use A journal Let's look past the simple fact you know how to physically write in a journal and dig into how to actually use your journal. It might contain all the secrets to life's biggest problems but unless you know how to uncover those secrets they stay hidden away in your words. Let the words flow from the heart and be filled with emotions, no holdbacks Make a daily journaling schedule. Each and every day take the time to record your thoughts morning and night. If you love to type notes into your phone all day transfer them to your journal after. Sit in a quiet spot and allow yourself to be judgement free. Your journal is not a reason to turn yourself into an emotional punching bag. Start small. You do not need to write a specific number of words. Just the right amount of honest words that let you feel a sense of being free from negativity and energized with possibility. If you write in your journal like someone is going to read it, you will ever allow yourself to fully express what needs to be expressed. Write like no one will ever read it because it is likely no one ever will unless you want them to. Write how you loved something, were mad at someone, wished something was different or anything you need to. Just do it. Start today writing in your journal. You could even put "Today I bought this awesome journal and will recommend all my friends do the same." Wink Wink Scroll up and hit the add to cart button now.

Download or read book Fishing Through the Apocalypse written by Matthew L. Miller and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the future hold for fish and the people who pursue them? Fishing Through the Apocalypse explores that question through a series of fishing stories about the reality of the sport in the 21st century. Matthew Miller (director of science communications for The Nature Conservancy) explores fishing that might be considered dystopian: joining anglers as they stick their lines into trash-filled urban canals, or visiting farm ponds where you can catch giant, endangered fish for a fee. But it isn’t all bleak. When it comes to fishing, the other part of the story is this: a cadre of anglers is looking to right past wrongs, to return native species, to remove dams, to appreciate the unappreciated fish, to clean our waters and protect public lands. As an angler and conservationist, Matt removes any and all preconceived notions about what it means to fish in the 21st century in order to see the different visions of the future that exist right here, right now. Fishing Through the Apocalypse offers one of the widest-ranging looks at fish conservation in the United States, and also includes some of the more unusual adventures ever featured in a fishing book. Features fishing adventures in: Idaho Colorado Wyoming New Mexico Utah Texas Florida Iowa Minnesota Illinois Washington DC Virginia Pennsylvania

Download or read book Snapshots of the Apocalypse written by Katy Wimhurst and published by Fly on the Wall Press. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these dark, witty short stories, Katy Wimhurst creates off-kilter worlds which illuminate our own. Here, knitting might cancel Armageddon. A winged being yearns to be an archaeologist. Readers are sucked into a post-apocalyptic London where the different rains are named after former politicians. An enchanted garden grows in a rented flat. Magical realism meets dystopia, with a refreshing twist. Advance Praise: 'An iridescent, compelling collection. Darkly magical in all the right ways.' - Irenosen Okojie, author of Nudibranch and Speak Gigantular 'Tales of the unexpected... a refreshing and humorous collection illuminating the author's vast imagination and gift for merging people, place and politics in well crafted stories. Wimhurst's cultural allusions and social commentary might make you laugh or glance sideways, but there are always sparks of human hope amongst the dystopian debris. One ticket here please, open return.' - Emma Kittle-Pey, author of Gold Adornments and Fat Maggie. 'These are fresh and exciting pieces, and I loved the sense of these unsettling off-kilter worlds, reminiscent of M John Harrison's You Should Come With Me Now (Comma Press). I think readers will enjoy the author's skilful balance of wit and playfulness with dark and frightening things; magical realism with a melancholy and often chilling twist.' - Anna Vaught, author of Saving Lucia and Famished. 'Katy Wimhurst finds hope in dystopias; colour in the bleakest of worlds. Her art is in combining charming whimsy with weighty social issues and, in the balance, delighting and surprising her reader. Her rich imagination and fresh, clean writing is, at all times, a pleasure.' - Petra McQueen, founder of The Writers' Company 'Katy Wimhurst's stories are enchanting. They appear beguilingly simple yet contain layers of meaning and mystery. Although often comical, each story has a hidden steel core - an environmental message that we need to cherish our planet and be compassionate to one another. She specialises in dystopias - in societies overwhelmed by the threats we fear - but even here the endings sound a positive note. We remain enchanted.' - Dorothy Schwarz, author of Behind a Glass Wall and Simple Stories about Women. Extract: Ticket to Nowhere "Destination?" asked the woman in the railway ticket office. She had pink blotchy skin and dark bags under her eyes. "Nowhere," I said. "Single or return?" "Can I get an open return for the next train?" "Not during peak hours." I sighed. "Okay, single then." I had no idea how long I would be in Nowhere, but had taken a few days off work, anyway. "That'll be £35." "For a one-way ticket to Nowhere? That's a complete rip-off!" "Take it or leave it," the woman said flatly. "Nowhere's the cheapest destination on offer. I can do Elsewhere for £44 or Somewhere for £52. We have a special offer to Everywhere for £99, which includes free vouchers for a Nirvana milk-shake and Armageddon hamburger." "I need a ticket to Nowhere." I opened my purse and handed over the money. "When does the next train leave?" "In five minutes from platform three." I took the ticket, picked up my suitcase, and followed the signs to platform three. Pacing resolutely, I was conscious of the click-click of my high heeled boots on the floor. It was dark outside apart from the dim lamps that lit the platform at intervals. A lonely half-moon was hovering high above, and I turned up the collar of my woollen overcoat.
