Download or read book Quarantine With God written by Arthlene Legair Lawrence and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quarantine with God is written to guide you into the refreshing presence of God in the season of isolation. A lot has happened in the previous years to individuals, families, businesses, and nations. The emergence of COVID-19, for instance, has compounded our worries as it sends fear down our spines, claiming the lives of some loved ones, killing many dreams, and shutting down growing or thriving businesses. We are distracted in the drift, troubled in the storm, and confused in the fog, but we are not hopeless in our state. Our heavenly Father has promised to restore the years the cankerworm has eaten. He is willing to draw nearer, direct us through the steps, and lead us to the pasture green. Do you feel lost, troubled, sick, depressed, shattered, inadequate, and hopeless? This is the book for hope, encouragement, empowerment, and healing. It will teach you the beauty of isolating to reflect, the promise of your cleansing, the secret of renewal, and the blessing of restoration. The dawn is here, choose to possess and rejoice in it. This book is a good read. It is filled with emotions, compassion and commitment. As Arthlene reflects on her life in the first set of chapters and the death of her dad she brings a fresh sensitivity to the expression of death and the emotions that one may pass through as they deal with the loss of a close family member or friend. The theme of never giving up is repeated throughout the book and demonstrates her own personality. May God continue to bless the works of her hands. H Lawrence.

Download or read book On Distance Belonging Isolation and the Quarantined Church of Today written by Pablo Irizar and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the closure of churches during the pandemic, and therefore in the absence of a community of worship, arises the pressing theological question: what does it mean to belong 'from a distance'? Although many have reacted to this question by providing virtual alternatives for activities and by reaffirming solidarity in times of hardship, a theological response requires articulating the effects of quarantine and distancing on what it means to belong in the Church. Fundamentally, what does it mean to belong, and is it possible to belong anew after the pandemic? This book addresses these questions by carefully drawing from the thought of Augustine of Hippo, whose life and thought fittingly echoes the course of our times.
