Download or read book Let Jesus Easter in Us written by Walter J. Burghardt and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an updated index to all of Burghardt's sermons in this and previous volumes. Once again Walter Burghardt, one of America's most talented and beloved preachers, brings his many devotees a brand-new collection of homilies, his fourteenth published by Paulist Press. The thirty homilies were delivered for occasions as diverse as a Sunday, a weekday, a memorial of a saint, or a hero such as Martin Luther King, Jr., a wedding, a radio mass, and his seventieth year as a priest. What ties them together, however, is Burghardt's abiding interest in, and pursuit of, biblical justice. As with his previous volumes, this collection will be inspirational for anyone who preaches, as a newcomer or veteran in the field, or, just as importantly, for anyone who listens. +

Book Subversive Jesus

    Book Details:
  • Author : Craig Warren Greenfield
  • Publisher : Zondervan
  • Release : 2016-04-26
  • ISBN : 031034624X
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book Subversive Jesus written by Craig Warren Greenfield and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jesus left the most exclusive gated community in the universe to come live with the people he loved and gave his life for, he turned everything we know and believe about life on its head. Jesus said that he came to bring good news to the poor, but most Western Christians remain disconnected and isolated from the poor and their contexts of injustice. Even our churches echo society’s pressure to isolate ourselves from the margins (e.g. by moving to a better suburb) and instead teach us how to be “nice people” who worship a “nice Jesus” and don’t disrupt the status quo. Convinced that Jesus places love for the poor and the pursuit of justice central, Craig Greenfield has sought to follow in Christ’s footsteps by living among people at the edges of society for the last fourteen years. His quest to follow this Subversive Jesus has taken Craig and his young family from the slums of Asia to inner city Canada and back again. This is the story of how Jesus led them to the margins: initiating the Pirates of Justice flash mobs, sharing their home with detoxing crackheads, welcoming homeless panhandlers and prostitutes to the dinner table, and ultimately sparking a movement to reach the world’s most vulnerable children. This book is a strong and potentially controversial critique of the status quo too often found in our churches, but it offers an inspirational and hopeful vision of another way. While readers may not relocate to a slum, they will certainly come to view their lives and ministry through a fresh lens—reconsidering how they are uniquely called by Jesus to subversively love the poor and break down systems of injustice in their sphere of influence.

Book Let Us Bless the Lord  Year Two  Easter through Pentecost

Download or read book Let Us Bless the Lord Year Two Easter through Pentecost written by and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara Crafton rises early each morning, lights a candle, opens her Book of Common Prayer, and reads the morning office - the ancient Christian service that praises God at the beginning of a new day. When she is done, she sits at her computer and sends an email that says simply, "Let us bless the Lord," the traditional closing line of the morning prayer service. Her devoted email readers--having taken part in the ritual themselves-- reply, "Thanks be to God." Crafton communicates with thousands of subscribers to her daily email meditations. They - and others who say the Daily Offices - will treasure this collection of brief meditations. Based on the assigned biblical texts for each day of Year Two's Easter through Pentecost seasons, Crafton's writings complement perfectly the morning, noon, evening, and nighttime prayers that comprise this beautiful tradition.

Book The Fate of the Apostles

Download or read book The Fate of the Apostles written by Sean McDowell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Martyrs by John Foxe written in the 16th century has long been the go-to source for studying the lives and martyrdom of the apostles. Whilst other scholars have written individual treatments on the more prominent apostles such as Peter, Paul, John, and James, there is little published information on the other apostles. In The Fate of the Apostles, Sean McDowell offers a comprehensive, reasoned, historical analysis of the fate of the twelve disciples of Jesus along with the apostles Paul, and James. McDowell assesses the evidence for each apostle’s martyrdom as well as determining its significance to the reliability of their testimony. The question of the fate of the apostles also gets to the heart of the reliability of the kerygma: did the apostles really believe Jesus appeared to them after his death, or did they fabricate the entire story? How reliable are the resurrection accounts? The willingness of the apostles to die for their faith is a popular argument in resurrection studies and McDowell offers insightful scholarly analysis of this argument to break new ground within the spheres of New Testament studies, Church History, and apologetics.

Book The Coming of God

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jürgen Moltmann
  • Publisher : Fortress Press
  • Release : 2004-07-27
  • ISBN : 9781451411904
  • Pages : 420 pages

Download or read book The Coming of God written by Jürgen Moltmann and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2004-07-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of Grawemeyer Award In this remarkable and timely work - in many ways the culmination of his systematic theology - world-renowned theologian Jurgen Moltmann stands Christian eschatology on its head. Moltmann rejects the traditional approach, which focuses on the End, an apocalyptic finale, as a kind of Christian search for the "final solution." He centers instead on hope and God's promise of new creation for all things. "Christian eschatology," he says, "is the remembered hope of the raising of the crucified Christ, so it talks about beginning afresh in the deadly end." Yet Moltmann's novel framework, deeply informed by Jewish and messianic thought, also fosters rich and creative insights into the perennially nettling questions of eschatology: Are there eternal life and personal identity after death? How is one to think of heaven, hell, and purgatory? What are the historical and cosmological dimensions of Christian hope? What are its social and political implications. In a heartbreakingly fragile and fragment world, Moltmann's comprehensive eschatology surveys the Christian vista, bravely envisioning our "horizons of expectation" for personal, social, even cosmic transformation in God.
