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.

This book was released on 2005-02-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular author, retreat leader, and priest 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, Crafton usually sits down at her computer and sends out an e-mail that says simply, "Let us bless the Lord," the traditional closing line of the morning prayer service. Her devoted readers reply, "Thanks be to God.” Crafton communicates with thousands of subscribers to her daily e-mail 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 One's Easter and Pentecost seasons, Crafton’s writings complement perfectly the morning, noon, evening, and nighttime prayers that are the Daily Offices. Barbara Cawthorne Crafton is an Episcopal priest and popular preacher, retreat leader, and writer. Her articles and reviews have appeared in the New York Times, Reader's Digest, Episcopal Life, and other publications. She is the author of many books, including Let Every Heart Prepare, Some Things You Just Have to Live With, Meditations on the Psalms, The Sewing Room, and others available from Morehouse Publishing.

She is even more stunned to discover that her mother, an academic who disappeared when Andie was a young girl, might also be involved.

Yet Andie is not the only one searching. Powerful forces know of her mentor's invention, including a mysterious elite society that spans borders and will stop at nothing to find the device. Now a target herself, Andie and a disgraced journalist embark on a perilous journey that might hold the key to a new frontier of knowledge—and which also promises to unlock the doors of her past.

Download or read book A Bible Story Called Easter and the Birth of Christianity KJV pilot version written by Lawrence Glasser and published by LVG Foundation Press. This book was released on 2018-11-14 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About this Book and this Book Series A Bible Story Called Easter and the Birth of Christianity: KJV pilot version - English is an illustrated chronological Bible-excerpt story covering the events surrounding Jesus Christ’s final Passover week through the following Pentecost observance. This first illustrated book in the series covers the most significant eight weeks of Christianity’s beginnings. The events covered here comprise core components of Christian theology. The book-template source for each book in the series is the published and copyrighted Appendix A, which specifies how to integrate the 63 public domain watercolor images created in the 1890’s by French artist James Tissot with 655 selected Bible verses recorded in the first century in the Greek language by the authors of the New Testament Gospels. The book template’s matrix format, “Gospels’ Comparative Text Alignment” [G’CTA], creates a single chronological story through the parallel alignment of the four Gospel authors’ narratives. This matrix format is often referred to as a Harmony of the Gospels. This first illustrated book in the series, KJV pilot version, is a derivative work compilation that presents the 655 Bible verses in English, using the KJV Bible translation commissioned by King James I of England in 1604 and completed in 1611; a significant upgrade to the translation occurred in 1769. The KJV translation is now considered public domain, except in the United Kingdom. The planned next book in the series will also be in English using the NLT Bible translation (New Living Translation.) A “fair use” permission for publication using this Bible translation has been granted by Tyndale House Publishers. Negotiations are also in process to produce other series books in English using the NABRE (Catholic), NIV (New International Version) and the NKJV (New King James Version) Bible translations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is fear? A question Sir Devon A. N. Ar'Rahman has attempted to explain in the stories he writes starting with part one titled The Message. Through the characters with fictitious names, though represented by real humans in real life, that answer and many more are explored with real possibilities to answer that one question many have chosen to try to ignore, "Who is God, our Heavenly Creator?" Thus, part three here titled Let's Just Have Some Fun attempts to relax the readers' minds as the Christ does his job in the teaching method known as the art of telling a story that many have been told and passed down through the ages of humanity starting millenniums ago after generations have come and gone, preparing humanity for the future ahead of the next generations to come.

Book excerpt: “If you’ve been looking for something different to level up your health, fitness, and personal growth, this is it.”—Melissa Urban, Whole30 CEO and New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Boundaries “Michael Easter’s genius is that he puts data around the edges of what we intuitively believe. His work has inspired many to change their lives for the better.”—Dr. Peter Attia, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Outlive Discover the evolutionary mind and body benefits of living at the edges of your comfort zone and reconnecting with the wild—from the author of Scarcity Brain, coming in September! In many ways, we’re more comfortable than ever before. But could our sheltered, temperature-controlled, overfed, underchallenged lives actually be the leading cause of many our most urgent physical and mental health issues? In this gripping investigation, award-winning journalist Michael Easter seeks out off-the-grid visionaries, disruptive genius researchers, and mind-body conditioning trailblazers who are unlocking the life-enhancing secrets of a counterintuitive solution: discomfort. Easter’s journey to understand our evolutionary need to be challenged takes him to meet the NBA’s top exercise scientist, who uses an ancient Japanese practice to build championship athletes; to the mystical country of Bhutan, where an Oxford economist and Buddhist leader are showing the world what death can teach us about happiness; to the outdoor lab of a young neuroscientist who’s found that nature tests our physical and mental endurance in ways that expand creativity while taming burnout and anxiety; to the remote Alaskan backcountry on a demanding thirty-three-day hunting expedition to experience the rewilding secrets of one of the last rugged places on Earth; and more. Along the way, Easter uncovers a blueprint for leveraging the power of discomfort that will dramatically improve our health and happiness, and perhaps even help us understand what it means to be human. The Comfort Crisis is a bold call to break out of your comfort zone and explore the wild within yourself.
