Book excerpt: "Vermont's story is filled with rebellious individuals and collective outbursts, people and moments that forged its path as a small, independent state with a strong sense of how to preserve its traditions while changing with the times. Restless Spirits & Popular Movements revisits this unique history through memorable events and people who helped create the delicate balance of sovereignty and solidarity, political independence and mutual aid known as the Vermont Way. The book explores Vermont's past and values through the exploits of Vermonters like revolutionary leaders Matthew Lyon and Ethan Allen; Anti-Mason Governor William Palmer and feminist pioneer Clarina Nichols; railroad and marble tycoons, anti-slavery activists, socialist activists and labor protesters; Vermont-born Presidents Chester Arthur and Calvin Coolidge; progressive innovators like James Burke and Ernest Gibson; modern political leaders like Phil Hoff, Richard Snelling, Madeleine Kunin, James Jeffords, Howard Dean, and Bernie Sanders; and even a Vermonter who rescued America from Joseph McCarthy. It is an attempt to look back at Vermont's past with fresh eyes, recast the drama, correct the record, and reclaim stories lost, distorted or buried along the way"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you afraid of the Holy Spirit being active in your church? Are you willing to admit it? The Holy Spirit has been a kind of third-rate member of the trinity in the theological writings of mainline and progressive Christians. It seems that the Spirit brings disorder to communities, spiritual arrogance to those who claim to “have the Spirit,” and frequently doctrinal confusion. We’d rather not have something in our churches that goes where it wants, and doesn’t give account for where it’s coming from and where it’s going. But the biblical picture of the Spirit is one of action, change, and renewal. Perhaps there is a place for this Spirit in a movement claiming the title of “progressive.” Bruce Epperly has experienced church from many perspectives. He has sat in conservative churches where too much Spirit might be seen as inciting division and heresy. He’s been in progressive churches where the Spirit is often considered peripheral. He’s a process theologian, and the Spirit, as he points out in this book, is often of tertiary concern. But he has also observed Spirit in action, and he thinks we do well to considered this third element of the trinity. What does it mean for the Spirit to be active? Is it safe? Can it be controlled? Can you keep it bound by your doctrinal statements? It should be active, and you cannot control it, Epperly argues in this book. You shouldn’t control it. Nor does it coercively control you. But it does drive us to new life, to new adventures, and perhaps to transformed understandings of the universe in which we live. Are you ready to join in this joyous adventure?

Book excerpt: A young Indian in the USA embraces a cause rooted in his motherland, but one that he doesn't fully understand. A student's world is turned upside down when his friend and her family are caught in the cross hairs of volatility and violence. A train burns as it enters Delhi, and the sole Sikh survivor shares with the nation the harrowing tale of his survival . . . These and many other stories form this heart-rending collection that evokes the horrors and uncertainties of 1984, through the tales of ordinary people caught in something bigger than themselves. Set during a time of monumental upheaval, Night of the Restless Spirits blurs the lines between the personal and political, and takes the reader on a journey fraught with love and tinged with tragedy, frayed relationships, the breaking down of humanity and resilience in the face of absolute despair. These stories tell us that people are capable of the best and the worst, but that ultimately there is always hope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the 2020 ForeWord INDIE Book of the Year in the Multicultural Adult Fiction Category Restless Spirits is a collection of previously unpublished plays by contemporary Assiniboine playwright William S. Yellow Robe Jr. Including one full-length and seven one-act plays, this book reflects one of the author's most creative and productive periods in his career. Selected by Yellow Robe, in consultation with editor Jace Weaver, the plays reveal the range of Yellow Robe's writing from tragedies to farce. They are unified by their supernatural themes or significant elements, including Wood Bones, his most recent and highly successful full-length play. Weaver's introduction says that the works in this collection clearly demonstrate that Yellow Robe is not just a great American Indian playwright, but a great American playwright in the company of David Mamet, Lynn Nottage, and Wallace Shawn. Renowned American Indian playwright Hanay L. Geiogamah provides a foreword and calls this volume "a real gift to the American Indian theater—and to theater, more generally."

Download or read book The Catholic Movement in the American Episcopal Church written by George E. DeMille and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2005-02-10 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A word about the origin of this book may be of some interest to its readers. In 1932, I was a layman of the Church, with a long-standing interest in Church history. As the centenary of the Oxford Movement approached, I noted that while the history of the movement in England had been told and retold, there was no corresponding account of the American developments of Tractarianism. With more courage than discretion, I set out to supply this want . . . . By 1941, I was ready for publication. But to find a publisher for a work of this sort, with its tenuous prospects of sale, was not easy. Eventually, the Church Historical Society ventured. The result was a pleasant suprise for both author and publisher. The book . . . was well recieved and widely reviewed. Above all, it sold. And still more suprising, the sale has continued steadily, until the first edition is exhausted. Meanwhiloe, many things have happened. I have continued to explore the field, with considerable results . . . Because of all these developments, and because there still seems to be a demand for the work, author and publisher again make their bow to a long-suffering public. --From the Author's Preface to the Second Edition
