Download or read book Building the Benedict Option written by Ward Davis and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-10 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his book The Benedict Option, Rod Dreher issued a timely warning to the church. In an attempt to engage the broader culture with the gospel it had failed to create a distinct Christian culture and instead had been coopted by American consumer culture. The result was an anemic church ill-prepared to face a quickly darkening cultural landscape and civilizational decline. In response, Dreher argued, it was time for the church to develop new ways of “doing” church. It was time to create new institutions and strategies to help it better form disciples, minister to the broader culture, and survive the years ahead. It was time for a “Benedict Option.” This book provides a template for how the leaders in a local church might go about creating their own Benedict Option Community (Ben Op community). It looks specifically at the early Irish monastic movement for principles church leaders today can use to develop their own Ben Op community, or “modern monastic settlement.” In the process, Davis provides the reader a brief introduction to architecture, urban planning, and place-making and explains why an understanding of these disciplines is necessary to create a healthy, effective Ben Op community.

Download or read book Magicians of the Gods written by Graham Hancock and published by Coronet. This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graham Hancock's multi-million bestseller Fingerprints of the Gods remains an astonishing, deeply controversial, wide-ranging investigation of the mysteries of our past and the evidence for Earth's lost civilization. Twenty years on, Hancock returns with a book filled with completely new, scientific and archaeological evidence, which has only recently come to light... The evidence revealed in this book shows beyond reasonable doubt that an advanced civilization that flourished during the Ice Age was destroyed in the global cataclysms between 12,800 and 11,600 years ago. Near the end of the last Ice Age 12,800 years ago, a giant comet that had entered the solar system from deep space thousands of years earlier, broke into multiple fragments. Some of these struck the Earth causing a global cataclysm on a scale unseen since the extinction of the dinosaurs. At least eight of the fragments hit the North American ice cap, while further fragments hit the northern European ice cap. The impacts, from comet fragments a mile wide approaching at more than 60,000 miles an hour, generated huge amounts of heat which instantly liquidized millions of square kilometres of ice, destabilizing the Earth's crust and causing the global Deluge that is remembered in myths all around the world. A second series of impacts, equally devastating, causing further cataclysmic flooding, occurred 11,600 years ago, the exact date that Plato gives for the destruction and submergence of Atlantis. But there were survivors - known to later cultures by names such as 'the Sages', 'the Magicians', 'the Shining Ones', and 'the Mystery Teachers of Heaven'. They travelled the world in their great ships doing all in their power to keep the spark of civilization burning. They settled at key locations - Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, Baalbek in the Lebanon, Giza in Egypt, ancient Sumer, Mexico, Peru and across the Pacific where a huge pyramid has recently been discovered in Indonesia. Everywhere they went these 'Magicians of the Gods' brought with them the memory of a time when mankind had fallen out of harmony with the universe and paid a heavy price. A memory and a warning to the future... For the comet that wrought such destruction between 12,800 and 11,600 years may not be done with us yet. Astronomers believe that a 20-mile wide 'dark' fragment of the original giant comet remains hidden within its debris stream and threatens the Earth. An astronomical message encoded at Gobekli Tepe, and in the Sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt,warns that the 'Great Return' will occur in our time...

Download or read book Consequential Art written by Samuel Amago and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish comics have attracted considerable critical attention internationally: dissertations have been written, monographs have been published, and an array of cultural institutions in Spain (the media, publishing houses, bookstores, museums, and archives) have increasingly promoted the pleasures, pertinence, and power of graphic narrative to an ever-expanding readership – all in an area of cultural production that was held, until recently, to be the stuff of child’s play, the unenlightened, or the unsophisticated. This volume takes up the charge of examining how contemporary comics in Spain have confronted questions of cultural legitimacy through serious and timely engagement with diverse themes, forms, and approaches – a collective undertaking that, while keenly in step with transnational theoretical trends, foregrounds local, regional, and national dimensions particular to the late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century Spanish milieu. From memory and history to the economic and the political, and from the body and personal space to mental geography, the essays collected in Consequential Art account for several key ways in which a range of comics practitioners have deployed the image-text connection and alternative methods of seeing to interrogate some of the most significant cultural issues in Spain.

Download or read book The Vessel written by Taylor Stevens and published by Crown. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people were easy to find. Others took hunting and patience. The most difficult was a target who knew she was coming, and he knew. How could he not? When you backed a predator into a corner, when you took and destroyed all that she loved, when you made a game of ruining lives and sadism for you was sport, but then you failed to kill the predator: you’d better know she was coming back. This was an inviolable law. She wasn’t dead, and so she was coming for him. She had his face, had the name of a city. In the right hands, anything could be mined into so much more. She would find him. Kill him. Simple as that.

Download or read book In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond written by John Zada and published by Atlantic Monthly Press. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist travels through British Columbia exploring of one of the world’s most baffling mysteries—the existence of the Sasquatch. On the central and north coast of British Columbia, the Great Bear Rainforest is the largest intact temperate rainforest in the world, containing more organic matter than any other terrestrial ecosystem on the planet. The area plays host to a wide range of species, from thousand-year-old western cedars to humpback whales to iconic white Spirit bears. According to local residents, another giant is said to live in these woods. For centuries people have reported encounters with the Sasquatch—a species of hairy bipedal man-apes said to inhabit the deepest recesses of this pristine wilderness. Driven by his own childhood obsession with the creatures, John Zada decides to seek out the diverse inhabitants of this rugged and far-flung coast, where nearly everyone has a story to tell, from a scientist who dedicated his life to researching the Sasquatch, to members of the area’s First Nations, to a former grizzly bear hunter-turned-nature tour guide. With each tale, Zada discovers that his search for the Sasquatch is a quest for something infinitely more complex, cutting across questions of human perception, scientific inquiry, indigenous traditions, the environment, and the power and desire of the human imagination to believe in—or reject—something largely unseen. Teeming with gorgeous nature writing and a driving narrative that takes us through the forests and into the valleys of a remote and seldom visited region, In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond sheds light on what our decades-long pursuit of the Sasquatch can tell us about ourselves and invites us to welcome wonder for the unknown back into our lives. Praise for In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond “Books on supernatural phenomena typically steer one of two courses: tabloid gullibility or mean-spirited debunkery. Zada deftly tightropes between the two. . . . In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond is not really about sasquatch. It is about how we see what we want to see and don’t see what we’re not prepared to see. . . . A quirky and oddly captivating tale.” —Eric Weiner, Washington Post “An adventure story in the tradition of Paul Theroux and, in parts, Jon Krakauer. . . . Zada is a latter-day Henry David Thoreau or John Muir. . . . Searching for an elusive ape, Zada has a knack for meeting unforgettable humans.” —Peter Kuitenbrouwer, Globe and Mail “If people can believe in God, why not Sasquatch? Zada takes us through the temperate rainforest of British Columbia looking for both the hairy bipedal and the mythology and landscape surrounding it. Terrific nature writing with a furry twist.” —Kerri Arsenault, Orion

Download or read book Weathering written by Ruth Allen and published by Random House. This book was released on 2024-03-28 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rocks and mountains have withstood aeons of life on our planet - gradually eroding, shifting, solidifying, and weathering. We might spend a little less time on earth, but humans are also weathering: evolving and changing as we're transformed by the shifting climates of our lives and experiences. So, what might these ancient natural forms have to teach us about resilience and change? In a stunning exploration of our own connection to these enduring forms, outdoor psychotherapist and geologist Ruth Allen takes us on a journey through deep time and ancient landscapes, showing how geology - which has formed the bedrock of her own adult life and approach to therapy - can offer us a new way of thinking about our own grief, change and boundaries. In a world shaken by physical, political, and medical disasters, Weathering argues for a deeper understanding of the ground beneath our feet to better serve ourselves and the world we live in.

Download or read book The 4 Gateways written by Ph D. C. H. Sandhriel and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-05-22 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Four Gateways of Life is a book about ancient Mayan wisdom that teaches us the four doors each and every human being needs to walk through, no matter their goals or life status. These four gateways must be walked through in the right sequence if we are to experience peace, clarity, love, inner power and finally, elder wisdom. The lives of most humans prove that people's lives are in shambles, discombobulated and scattered. If you've ever asked questions such as these: "Who am I?" "What is my life's mission" "Who is my life partner?" "Should I start my own business?" "Should I move to another country?" "Is now the time to build a family?" Then you are standing before gateway number two, which is the gateway of clarity. The reason we do not have clarity is because we not yet walked through gateway number one. Most people would rather skip gateways one and two and head straight for gateway number three: the gateway of power. We see this frequently with those who must have wealth and power over others at any cost. Sadly, gateway number three, although the door to power, is not talking about power achieved by force. This gateway is about inner power and strength of character. There is a way for all human beings to live a life filled with love, without fear but filled with crystal clarity that can lead to true inner power and eventually elder wisdom. The individual who embarks on their life journey following these four gateways is the human being that exudes a strength and power and a charm that is irresistible and truly powerful. These are the people for whom everything just seems to go right. They seem to always be in the right place at the right time and they seem as though they're luck's favorite. This type of success has nothing to do with luck or having been born with a platinum spoon in their mouth, it has everything to do with these four gateways, which polish and strengthen one's character. If you're ready to do roll up your sleeves and do the work, this book will give you the step-by-step plan to living a brilliantly successful life.
