Download or read book The World Rushed In written by J. S. Holliday and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When The World Rushed In was first published in 1981, the Washington Post predicted, “It seems unlikely that anyone will write a more comprehensive book about the Gold Rush.” Twenty years later, no one has emerged to contradict that judgment, and the book has gained recognition as a classic. As the San Francisco Examiner noted, “It is not often that a work of history can be said to supplant every book on the same subject that has gone before it.” Through the diary and letters of William Swain--augmented by interpolations from more than five hundred other gold seekers and by letters sent to Swain from his wife and brother back home--the complete cycle of the gold rush is recreated: the overland migration of over thirty thousand men, the struggle to “strike it rich” in the mining camps of the Sierra Nevadas, and the return home through the jungles of the Isthmus of Panama. In a new preface, the author reappraises our continuing fascination with the “gold rush experience” as a defining epoch in western--indeed, American--history.

Download or read book Visual Theology written by Tim Challies and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation.

Download or read book Scripture Storyline written by Todd Chipman and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripture Storyline guides the reader through the Old and New Testaments, showing how every section of Scripture is connected as part of a grand narrative of God's redemptive work. As Chipman covers Old Testament passages, he explains their meaning, their place in God's story, and how New Testament authors used and interpreted them to make sense of Christ's life, death, and resurrection. In New Testament passages, Chipman highlights how important the Old Testament is for proclaiming the gospel and for understanding God's saving work. Scripture Storyline is intentionally organized into 313 units of reading to be used as a companion for reading the entire Bible in one year, reading one unit per day, six days per week. Additionally, those studying books of the Bible together may use Scripture Storyline as a concise commentary to aid in comprehension and to facilitate deeper discussion of the meaning of each unit and its place in the Bible's larger narrative. By presenting each part of Scripture in relation to the larger narrative, Chipman invites readers to see Scripture through the lens of biblical theology, which prompts us to consider the progressive nature of God's revelation, the development of theological themes, and the identification of types and patterns that are introduced and then developed from Genesis-Revelation.
