Download or read book The Difficult Words of Jesus written by Amy-Jill Levine and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As well as telling parables and stories, giving teachings on how to discern questions of ethics and human nature, and offering beatitudes for comfort and encouragement, Jesus also spoke words and flung insults that followers then and now have found difficult, to say the least. He instructs disciples to hate members of their own families (Luke 14:26), warns that unending fire awaits some people, says body parts should be cut off if they offend. He calls a foreign woman a ‘dog’, the Jews ‘offspring of vipers’ and his closest disciple ‘Satan’. Preachers often gloss over these or avoid them altogether as they are still so shocking. In The Difficult Words of Jesus, Amy-Jill Levine sheds vital light on understanding these by exploring how these sayings sounded to those who first heard them. She reveals Jewish modes of expression, humour and the long tradition of Jewish insults and what they mean, and how we might interpret these sayings today within a gospel of love and reconciliation.

Download or read book Not Safe for Church written by Dr. F. Douglas Powe JR. and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congregations say they want to reach new and younger people, many of whom are simply turned off by church. The big idea is that congregations must be willing to embrace radical ways to connect with new generations. Re-thinking old assumptions is a starting place but more is needed. To really connect congregations have to move beyond and start doing new things that are out of their comfort zones. These authors give ten ways to help you move from just saying what you intend to actually doing it. This book provides tools to help churches re-frame the Good News in non-traditional ways and study questions for church leadership teams.
Download or read book Darby Borough written by Lindy Constance Wardell and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early on, Darby was known as the "Gateway to the South," welcoming travelers of the new world and providing food and lodging at its hotels and taverns. As the Minquas Indian trail, now Main Street, changed from mud to logs to cobblestone to blacktop, the place called Darby became the industrial, financial, political, and transportation center of Delaware County. John Blunston's 1682 William Penn Grant settlement had its first school in 1683, established the second oldest library in the United States by 1743, and still has its Bunting Friendship Freedom House dating to 1699, which represents Darby's part in the Underground Railroad.
