Download or read book The Dearly Beloved written by Cara Wall and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This gentle, gorgeously written book may be one of my favorites ever.” —Jenna Bush Hager (A Today show “Read with Jenna” Book Club Selection!) This “moving portrait of love and friendship set against a backdrop of social change” (The New York Times Book Review, Editor’s Choice) traces two married couples whose lives become entangled when the husbands become copastors at a famed New York city congregation in the 1960s. Charles and Lily, James and Nan. They meet in Greenwich Village in 1963 when Charles and James are jointly hired to steward the historic Third Presbyterian Church through turbulent times. Their personal differences however, threaten to tear them apart. Charles is destined to succeed his father as an esteemed professor of history at Harvard, until an unorthodox lecture about faith leads him to ministry. How then, can he fall in love with Lily—fiercely intellectual, elegantly stern—after she tells him with certainty that she will never believe in God? And yet, how can he not? James, the youngest son in a hardscrabble Chicago family, spent much of his youth angry at his alcoholic father and avoiding his anxious mother. Nan grew up in Mississippi, the devout and beloved daughter of a minister and a debutante. James’s escape from his desperate circumstances leads him to Nan and, despite his skepticism of hope in all its forms, her gentle, constant faith changes the course of his life. In The Dearly Beloved, Cara wall reminds us of “the power of the novel in its simplest, richest form: bearing intimate witness to human beings grappling with their faith and falling in love,” (Entertainment Weekly, A-) as we follow these two couples through decades of love and friendship, jealousy and understanding, forgiveness and commitment. Against the backdrop of turbulent changes facing the city and the church’s congregation, Wall offers a poignant meditation on faith and reason, marriage and children, and the ways we find meaning in our lives. The Dearly Beloved is a gorgeous, wise, and provocative novel that is destined to become a classic.

Book excerpt: Luke addressed two letters that found their way into the Bible to one named Theophilus. Many have wondered who he is. Yet he is not such a mystery. "Theo" means God and "philus" means friend. So the name means "friend of God." There are many theories about who this man is, a Greek, a Roman, or a Jew. But I believe it is written to those of us who are friends of God, believers in Jesus. That is you and me.Much of this book, Mary's stories, were written because I was fascinated by this woman who most approach only on extremes. To the Catholics and Orthodox believers she is the Mother of God, divine and revered. Yet the Protestants rarely mention her. It is hard to talk about a person so righteous, at such a young age, that she was asked to be the mother of Jesus.I've always sought a middle ground. She was a woman. She had failings. She had to come to Jesus, her son, as her Savior, like everyone else in the world. Her personality does not come out in the gospels. But she was often in his company. That meant she walked the length of the Holy Land, just as his disciples did. She was at his death and did not leave the cross until John took her away. And she was in the Upper Room on the Day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit fell like fire on the believers. It fell on her just as it did on Peter!What an amazing life she led! I for one want to meet her one day and talk about many things. But I know she will point me to her son.

Download or read book Mary My Beautiful Beloved The Seven Words of Mary written by Evaristus Chibuzo Asadu and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you will be reading through the Bible, you'd easily notice that Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, would always be the perfect example of what it means to listen to the voice of God. Her docility, purity and openness to the Word are constant qualities we Christians hope to imitate as we journey in life and mature in faith. But this book invites us, not just to learn from Mary's example, but to also listen to her own words. In seven chapters, the Seven Words of the Blessed Virgin Mary are explained here in a very simple way for easy understanding and application in our daily lives. They might be very few, compared to those of her Son and his disciples, but they surely form a little map which charts out for us a path of holiness and happiness. May our Blessed Mother inspire you as you listen to her words, and inspire you to follow her Son Jesus more lovingly each day. Rev. Fr. John Francis Frederick Manlapig Parish Priest, Holy Eucharist Parish,
Download or read book Beloved Jesus Married to Mary written by Juanita de Guzman Gutierrez BSED MSED and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author has been reading and analyzing who Jesus was and is and forever from holy scriptures, other mystics, channelings, and other worldwide web of information. Ms. Juanita de Guzman Gutierrez studied and graduated with bachelor and masters degrees in education. And she pondered her spiritual awakening. After more than thirty-three years of school, teaching in the Philippiness and in New York Citys public and private schools, she entered the monastery to discern a call to the religious life. She stayed in the cloistered and contemplative monastery for three years and three months. Ms. Gutierrez was admitted as a prepostulant, postulant, and then as a novice of the congregation who prayed five times a day. Ms. Gutierrez was assigned sacred jobs, such as officiant or leader of songs, bell ringer, scripture reader, assistant to the dispenser, cleaner, embroiderer, and preparer of fruits and vegetables. She had to come out and leave the monastery for two reasons: First, her beloved mother was taken sick. Second, it was not Gods holy will that Sister Juanita becomes a nun. This book is a personal, spiritual, and scholastic journey of Ms. Gutierrez through life. She had traveled around the world and experienced different cultures and studied miracles that happened in the planet. What struck her mind is how universal the greatest man who ever lived on earth, Jesus the Christ, is. He is internationally known and loved and celebrated as well as vilified and mocked. This book will bear on these analyses. Take this journey with Ms. Gutierrez. It gave her tears rolling down her cheeks when these words were etched in her mind, The greatest Jewish priest that ever lived, Jesus, was killed for his peaceful doctrine.
Download or read book Beloved Disciple written by Robin Griffith-Jones and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2008-09-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, Griffith-Jones (Master of the Temple Church, London; The Four Witnesses: The Rebel, the Rabbi, the Chronicler, and the Mystic) takes a trendy Da Vinci Code topic and provides the scriptural and historical background that gave writers like Dan Brown license to cast Mary Magadalene as Jesus's presumed wife. Following a Gospel survey paying special attention to John's treatment of Mary, Griffith-Jones turns his focus to Gnostic works of the second and third centuries, and herein lies the work's primary strength. Unlike Susan Haskin in the impressive cultural history Mary Magdalene: Truth and Myth, Griffith-Jones here situates Mary in the canonical Christian scripture and then demonstrates Gnosticism's imaginative use of Mary as a site of incarnational theology, sexual dimorphism, and Sophia/Wisdom in creation. In the last chapter, he considers her evolution in aesthetic and cultural terms, with illustrations charting her evolution from repentant prostitute into an eroticized sexual figure embodying physical intimacy with the risen Christ. In Mary, claims Griffith-Jones, we glimpse our fundamental striving to understand what it means to be an embodied human being. An accessible read whose greatest usefulness is its Gnostic analysis; recommended.--Sandra Collins, Byzantine Catholic Seminary Lib., Pittsburgh Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Download or read book The Gospel of Mary written by Esther De Boer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2005-06-20 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code has raised new interest in Mary Magdalene and in the Gospel of Mary. Here, the author examines Mary Magdalene's influence on the beginnings of Christianity and asks what was her impact and her message? And furthermore, what became of her and her ideas? Esther de Boer studies the Gospel of Mary (the only Gospel to be named after a woman) to discover what it reveals about Mary Magdalene and to determine the origin of its portrayal. She argues that the Gospel of Mary is not a Gnostic writing but is more closely related to the writings of Philo, the letters of Paul and the Gospel of John. She demonstrates that esteem of Mary Magdalene did not just belong to the Gnostic tradition but to a broader Christian context. In order to determine this context, the study identifies the different portrayals of Mary Magdalene in the New Testament, analyses their concepts of discipleship and their views on women, and investigates their historical 'reality'. Esther de Boer concludes that the portrayal of Mary Magdalene in the Gospel of Mary is close to that in the Gospel of John, and investigates the possibility that she is concealed in the Johannine disciple loved by Jesus.
