Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After thirty-two years of complete silence, Robert Newmiller feels compelled to share his early church life and the result of an ensuing struggle that played out within the deepest regions of his heart and mind. Although he once trembled at the thought of speaking of the past, he now sees that the hand of God's providence was at work within the darkest of circumstances, and he now understands that his brokenness and tears served a greater purpose. Join Newmiller as he shares his past in Molested in God's House. 'This is the poignant story of the journey of a soul. A soul born to trust, damaged by betrayal, tormented by the loss of faith, then emergent with God's love renewed. Mr. Newmiller courageously shares the lifelong ramifications of sexual abuse. He challenges us as a society to stop this evil and protect our children. He espouses the power of God in accepting and granting forgiveness and then reintegrating love, hope, trust and faith into his life and the life of his family.' Susan Pronchik, guidance counselor 'Molested in God's House is a journey of faith that starts out in the wide-eyed wonder of a child, takes us through the sequences of the most evil depravity that life can mete out to one person, and comes full circle to a living faith restored to a new and greater dimension.' Karen Tomlinson, founder, Step by Step Learning Center 'This book is a roadmap of sorts that speaks to the hearts of all fallen Christians who believe incorrectly that they have fallen too far from our Creator's love to find their way home. It proclaims: You are welcome again in your heavenly Father's house!' Jim Femino, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter

Download or read book The Neurobiology of the Gods written by Erik D. Goodwyn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where does science end and religion begin? Can "spiritual" images and feelings be understood on a neurobiological level without dismissing their power and mystery? In this book, psychiatrist Erik Goodwyn addresses these questions by reviewing decades of research, putting together a compelling argument that the emotional imagery of myth and dreams can be traced to our deep brain physiology, and importantly, how a sensitive look at this data reveals why mythic or religious symbols are indeed more "godlike" than we might have imagined. The Neurobiology of the Gods weaves together Jungian depth psychology with research in evolutionary psychology, neuroanatomy, cognitive science, neuroscience, anthropology, mental imagery, dream research, and metaphor theory into a comprehensive model of how our brains contribute to the recurrent images of dreams, myth, religion and even hallucinations. Divided into three sections, this book provides: definitions and foundations an examination of individual symbols conclusive thoughts on how brain physiology shapes the recurring images that we experience. Goodwyn shows how common dream, myth and religious experiences can be meaningful and purposeful without discarding scientific rigor. The Neurobiology of the Gods will therefore be essential reading for Jungian analysts and psychologists as well as those with an interest in philosophy, anthropology and the interface between science and religion.

Download or read book Prostitutes and Polygamists written by David T. Lamb and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob and Solomon were polygamists. Tamar and Rahab were prostitutes. What are polygamists and prostitutes doing on the pages of Holy Scripture? And God told the prophet Hosea to marry a prostitute. What about Cain—did he really marry his sister? Abraham did, and he was also a polygamist. Lot offered his daughters up for rape, David committed adultery (or rape?) and the Bible calls both men righteous. Love, Old Testament style, was bizarre. As readers of the Old Testament encounter these weird, confusing, and horrific “love” stories they ask, “What’s up with sex in the Old Testament?” The church often ignores the R-rated bits of the Bible, so it’s hard for people to find answers to their disturbing questions about sex in Scripture, which can lead people to give up on God and God’s word. However, these stories were included in the Bible for a reason, to reveal an even more shocking “love” story. When humans behave badly, God behaves graciously. God not only forgives people with sexual baggage, but also redeems their lives and includes them in his mission. God’s word records their story to benefit us. Just as sex was not often ideal in the Old Testament, it’s often not ideal today. Instead of ignoring these stories, Prostitutes and Polygamists engages, discusses, and learns from them.

Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the author¿s life in poetic form. Each poem is a real-life experience and testimony to what God has brought her through.

Like the other two houses, it is still standing. But Lenora is no longer trapped inside any of them. 2. ¿Sisters of Molestation¿ is when Lenora realized that abuse knows no color. It was also when she realized that the hands that abused her were also the hands that abused someone close to her. 3. ¿It¿s In the Eyes¿ is the author¿s realization of what she believes is her God-given discernment to recognize some who have been or are being abused, as well as being on guard to some who could be abusers. By God's Grace is the author¿s personal testimony to the world that God is able to deliver.

Book excerpt: And who is my neighbor? Christians confess the Bible as the Good Book, the perfect guide for becoming loving and holy, just like Jesus. And yet, that same book describes God commanding the Israelites to kill every Canaanite living in the Promised Land. How are we to understand the Bible as the Good Book when it depicts God commanding actions like genocide? How are we to reconcile this narrative with the God revealed in Jesus Christ, the God who taught us to love our enemies?In this bold new book, Randal Rauser defends a novel approach to the Canaanite genocide, one that remains faithful to our deepest moral intuitions even as it is guided by the conviction that Jesus calls us to love all our neighbors. And the Canaanite is our neighbor.
Download or read book The Jeremiah Project Part 1 The Scrapbook written by A. J. Foltz and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turn off all the noise, and get yourself comfortable. Jeremiah invites you in. The Jeremiah Project Part 1-The Scrapbook has the bones of a study guide but as Scripture is searched and questions are answered the study takes on the form of a novelette. The study begins with Jeremiah's official appointment. Jeremiah will represent the Lord in a monumental court case that administers justice. This case still affects us today. The Lord had a legal and binding relationship with Israel. Their relationship is compared to marriage in this study of God's Word. When God acquired Israel as a vessel-bride, Israel acquired God's promises, which were outlined in a living and breathing contract. The once gracious contract which united the two parties in holy union has by legal recourse become a beast which, in study, serves to bind the pair in its merciless grip. The Jeremiah Project Part 1-The Scrapbook is a user-friendly study that you cannot afford to miss. It's like finding a few more pieces to that big puzzle of life. Some of us have a good start at putting it all together, but the picture of life becomes a little clearer and makes more sense after spending some time with Jeremiah. You will find insightful information as he, by appointment from God, delivers wisdom, comfort, and strength that will get many through the upheaval in our world.
