Download or read book Luke 10 24 written by Barbara E. Reid, OP and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because there are more women in the Gospel of Luke than in any other gospel, feminists have given it much attention. In this commentary, Shelly Matthews and Barbara Reid show that feminist analysis demands much more than counting the number of female characters. Feminist biblical interpretation examines how the female characters function in the narrative and also scrutinizes the workings of power with respect to empire, to anti-Judaism, and to other forms of othering. Matthews and Reid draw attention to the ambiguities of the text-both the liberative possibilities and the ways that Luke upholds the patriarchal status quo-and guide readers to empowering reading strategies.

Book excerpt: With more than four decades of experience in ministry, Rev. Dave Heney has created a proven method that offers you the confidence and skills you need to serve as Jesus served. In Luke 10 Leadership, Heney shares his four-step, bible-based plan for effective parish ministry. He builds on four simple directives from Jesus found in Luke’s gospel and shows you how to build trusting relationships, embrace the culture of your parish, tend to the wounded, and speak the Good News in ways that your flock can understand. In Luke 10:5-9, Jesus instructs seventy-two of his disciples how to go about their ministry. He tells them to: speak peace; eat and drink whatever is set before them; cure the sick; and announce to the people that the kingdom is at hand. Rev. Dave Heney, a priest of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, translates these biblical instructions into a primer for today’s ministry leaders. Heney breaks Jesus’ teaching into four foundational pastoral skills: building trusting relationships understanding the local culture tending to the wounded speaking the Good News in language that fits the local culture Heney shows leaders—clergy and lay, paid and volunteer—how to get started in a new leadership position or give an existing role a new direction. He offers practical tips for growing leadership skills and implementing pastoral strategies in areas such as communication, planning, organization, and change. Leadership in Catholic parishes varies greatly from place to place. But no matter what your particular setting is—whether you are just beginning your ministry or starting out in a new place—this primer of pastoral skills and strategies offers simple, challenging, and transformative lessons for you.

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marilyn Salmon's persuasive and practical work helps preachers to identify the ways that Christian preachers perpetuate the long tradition of Christian anti-Judaism. She situates the Gospels precisely as Jewish literature then addresses specific thorny issues that arise in preaching: supersessionism; portrayals of the Law; the Pharisees; the relationship between the Testaments; preaching the Passion; and misrepresentations of Judaism. Using examples from many sermons, she shows how to avoid the pitfalls of misportraying the people of Jesus.
