Download or read book The Love Stories of the Bible Speak written by Shannon Bream and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant New York Times Bestseller! The Bible is full of “love” stories. But the Biblical idea of love is so much bigger than we imagine. Love is at the heart of the Bible. From the moment Adam declared Eve “flesh of my flesh”…to the sacrificial love of Joseph for Mary…to the deep friendship of David and Jonathan…to the abounding and never-changing love of God: The Bible is a love story. But it also redefines the way the world tells us we should think about love. The Bible reveals not just butterflies and broken hearts. In Scripture, we see God’s beautiful design for the partnership of marriage. We witness friendships that cross all boundaries. We watch as families navigate the many seasons of life. Our guiding example for them all is the deepest, most abiding, foundational love ever known: God’s unconditional love for His people. In The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. She shows how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning upside down our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other. The Love Stories of the Bible Speak reminds us that, no matter where we find ourselves, God’s unwavering love will sustain and guide us. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you, and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.

Book excerpt: The Instant New York Times Bestseller and TikTok Sensation! As seen on THE VIEW! A BuzzFeed Best Summer Read of 2021 When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman's carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.
Download or read book Scenarios of Power written by Richard S. Wortman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new and abridged edition of Scenarios of Power is a concise version of Richard Wortman's award-winning study of Russian monarchy from the seventeenth century until 1917. The author breaks new ground by showing how imperial ceremony and imagery were not simply displays of the majesty of the sovereign and his entourage, but also instruments central to the exercise of absolute power in a multinational empire. In developing this interpretation, Wortman presents vivid descriptions of coronations, funerals, parades, trips through the realm, and historical celebrations and reveals how these ceremonies were constructed or reconstructed to fit the political and cultural narratives in the lives and reigns of successive tsars. He describes the upbringing of the heirs as well as their roles in these narratives and relates their experiences to the persistence of absolute monarchy in Russia long after its demise in Europe.

Download or read book If Love Could Think written by Alon Gratch and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2005-10-25 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking book about why the one thing we all fear—ambivalence—is the one thing we must accept to find lasting love. If Love Could Think is an entertaining and practical book that addresses with warmth and intelligence the age-old question relevant to any stage of a relationship: why does love go wrong, and what can we do to make it right? After many years of treating patients with relationship problems, psychologist Alon Gratch has identified seven common patterns of failed love. These patterns include, for example, narcissistic love, when a person has so idealized the partner and the relationship that they can’t possibly continue to measure up; one-way love, when a person loves someone who doesn’t return that love; triangular love, when a third party, be it a mother, an affair, or a job is involved in the relationship; and forbidden love, the kind of relationship that is generally off-limits, such as when a teacher dates a student. In If Love Could Think, Gratch shows us that all of these patterns stem from one fundamental problem—our own ambivalence. With his trademark combination of depth and humor, and using many individual stories as engaging examples, Gratch walks us through the ways we get stuck in these patterns. In each case we are looking for perfect or ideal love. Every pattern creates an obstacle so we don’t have to face our own ambivalence about the relationship or the other person. But humans aren’t perfect, so no matter how wonderful love can be, there is no such thing as pure love. Ambivalence implies the existence not only of love but also of anger, disapproval, or disappointment. As Dr. Gratch shows, there are really only two choices: accept ambivalence as part of any loving relationship, or continue to repeat the patterns of illusory love. Happily, using a simple yet powerful three-step approach, If Love Could Think helps readers to use their own minds to break these patterns of failed relationships and find real and lasting love.

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion written by Sonya E Pritzker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion offers a variety of critical theoretical and methodological perspectives that interrogate the ways in which ideas about and experiences of emotion are shaped by linguistic encounters, and vice versa. Taking an interdisciplinary approach which incorporates disciplines such as linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, psychology, communication studies, education, sociology, folklore, religious studies, and literature, this book: explores and illustrates the relationship between language and emotion in the five key areas of language socialisation; culture, translation and transformation; poetry, pragmatics and power; the affective body-self; and emotion communities; situates our present-day thinking about language and emotion by providing a historical and cultural overview of distinctions and moral values that have traditionally dominated Western thought relating to emotions and their management; provides a unique insight into the multiple ways in which language incites emotion, and vice versa, especially in the context of culture. With contributions from an international range of leading and emerging scholars in their fields, The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion is an indispensable resource for students and researchers who are interested in incorporating interdisciplinary perspectives on language and emotion into their work.
Download or read book Themes in Kangri Love Songs written by Anil Kumar Swadeshi and published by Rudra Publications. This book was released on with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Themes in Kangri Love Songs: A Literary Perspective is an attempt to reveal the literary relevance of Kangri love songs which people have been singing across the valley of Kangra since the time immemorial and people are still singing these songs as a significant part of their tradition and culture. People of Kangra Valley were already aware of their rich culture and tradition and hence the tradition of these love songs continued to represent their culture without any impact of time and space. This is the reason they preserved their rich tradition of singing of love songs. This book is also an attempt to understand the themes in Kangri love songs in comparison and in relation to various traditions of love songs or poetry existing throughout the globe in well-established literary forms. This book would have been an impossible endeavor had I not been born in a Kangri community where I lived and understood the ways how culture traverses from one generation to other without any deliberate attempt. The selection of love songs is important for these songs are sung everywhere in Kangra but no attempt was ever made to understand them.
Download or read book Love and Money written by Lisa Henderson and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love and Money argues that we can’t understand contemporary queer cultures without looking through the lens of social class. Resisting old divisions between culture and economy, identity and privilege, left and queer, recognition and redistribution, Love and Money offers supple approaches to capturing class experience and class form in and around queerness. Contrary to familiar dismissals, not every queer television or movie character is like Will Truman on Will and Grace—rich, white, healthy, professional, detached from politics, community, and sex. Through ethnographic encounters with readers and cultural producers and such texts as Boys Don’t Cry, Brokeback Mountain, By Hook or By Crook, and wedding announcements in the New York Times, Love and Money sees both queerness and class across a range of idioms and practices in everyday life. How, it asks, do readers of Dorothy Allison’s novels use her work to find a queer class voice? How do gender and race broker queer class fantasy? How do independent filmmakers cross back and forth between industry and queer sectors, changing both places as they go and challenging queer ideas about bad commerce and bad taste? With an eye to the nuances and harms of class difference in queerness and a wish to use culture to forge queer and class affinities, Love and Money returns class and its politics to the study of queer life.

Book excerpt: His love Her fantasy ... understanding what love is about As a man, but also as a woman, we try to define the undefined from a love story. Dreaming about love and being in love ... the path from the fantasy to the love story itself ... is just a matter of luck ... or maybe where you find yourself, on the timeline of your own life. Maybe is the perfect time for you to explore what love is about, or maybe other things are important at the moment ... and the love story can only be a future “project”. Exploring what love is about ... in our minds, as a fantasy ... or in the real life, as a real love story ... is depending only and only if we are ready or not. But what is the difference between fantasy and reality, when even the Bible is saying that everything we see is just an illusion? Well ... i believe that the fantasy is only the begining of defining what we want ... and the love story is the “experiment” itself. Is it too much to name a love story ... an “experiment”?! Well ... exploring ... as a fantasy or as reality is letting your soul understand what love is about. And ... sometimes is even a life lesson. The moment when you jump into the fairy tale ... the real fantasy ... and you understand the meaning of love ... the fact that love is about giving and not about receiving ... that is the moment when you also understand what life is about. Accepting your partner, just as he / she is ... just as accepting all the people from our lives is the moment of awakening. And also you should know that this path is leading you to point when your thinking will be totally redefined. Life itself ... is about love. Seeing what love is about ... is understanding the meaning of life. If the “love chapter” started for you ... even if it’s just a fantasy or reality ... you should be happy. The awakening will come to you!

Download or read book Scenarios written by Adcgordon and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two scenarios in which love is looked upon as taboo, unreal, a farce in the world of relationships. Those scenarios are the world of teenagers, and the star-crossed realm of Hollywood. When they met, Anessa Anne Hart was a 15 year old girl with caramel-colored skin, milk chocolate eyes and wavy ebony hair, a more than determined actress. Zachary David Alexander was the dedicated young actor decorated with dirty blond-hair, blue eyes and a near-constant smile that was being perfected by the braces in his 16 year old mouth. Was it fate that put their pictures together at their auditions or was it coincidence? Was it the simplicity of just making new friends or was there a true attraction between them? Whatever the case the teen actors found their on-screen chemistry transforming into an off-screen relationship that gained them more than international fame. In the scenarios of teens and Hollywood the taboo word was shared between the two. Love.
