Book excerpt: Sacred Sundays is a self-help guide book to help the thousands of women who are care takers and nurturers of others before they take care of and nurture themselves.

Sacred Sundays was written to help the powerful and powerless super women living on the edge of burnout and breakdown fi nd ways to press pause and take time out of their busy schedules to restore and rejuvenate their mind and bodies, as well as how to fi nd spiritual transformation through personal and sacred intimacy. Isn’t it time for you to care for yourself the same way you care for others?
Download or read book THE SACRED SUNDAY WORDS OF WISDOM JOURNAL written by Michael William AngelOh and published by Children of Light Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-24 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was on July 4th that I found an up and coming Social Media Website called Facebook. I registered for my first Facebook Homepage account and within 30 days had composed a page featuring my “HAWAIIAN WORDS OF WISDOM” sayings. I immediately began receiving hundreds of likes and encouraging comments to my new page which inspired me to begin another new page entitled, “SACRED^SUNDAY WORDS OF WISDOM.” This page would feature my collection of writings and Quotations which I would feature to my many friends on Facebook and then on Twitter another Social Media site posted early each Sunday morning. These early creations have been published regularly on both Fridays and Sundays ever since 2008 and are the source and inspiration for this Book. Each Friday I had posted one of my Hawaiian Words of Wisdom Quotations in both Hawaiian with the English translation. Each Sunday I had posted one of my very favorite Scriptural Quotations occasionally with a comment or personal Prayer attached. The other days of the week were inspired primarily by my own personal Quotations that I had published in my personal Newsletter entitled, “The Sacred^Sunday Journals” which went out weekly to over 6,000 subscribers along with my Sunday postings on Social Media. This new Book publication offers Daily Inspiration and features what are called, “THE FRUITS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT” Quotations. It also features the author's "HAWAIIAN WORDS OF WISDOM" as well as “SACRED^SUNDAY'S SCRIPTURAL QUOTATIONS" for 365 days, a full year. They are presented as daily reminders or what may be called “THE INSPIRATIONAL WORD FOR THE DAY.” Daily "WORD STONE IMAGES" are also posted to keep the reader’s attention focused upon those Spiritual attributes in each Soul’s consciousness that may be reflected upon each day of ordinary time for each individual Soul’s lifetime journey. The “SACRED^SUNDAY WORDS OF WISDOM JOURNAL” begins on a Sunday with Day 1 and ends on a Sunday with Day 365. My sincere desire is that each Quotation for every day of whatever year you happen to be reading this Book will warm your Heart and illuminate your mind and Soul having a human experience on a daily basis.
Download or read book The Sacred Santa written by Dell deChant and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-04-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sacred Santa is an inquiry into the religious dimension of postmodern culture, seriously considering the widespread perception that contemporary culture witnesses a profound struggle between two antithetical systems -- a collision of two worlds, both religious, yet each with vivid visions of the sacred that differ radically with regard to what the sacred is and what it means to human life and social endeavor.
Download or read book The Religious Lives of Older Laywomen written by Abby Day and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Religious Lives of Older Laywomen draws on ethnographic fieldwork, cross-cultural comparisons, and relevant theories exploring the beliefs, identities, and practices of "Generation A"--Anglican laywomen born in the 1920s and 1930s. Now in their 70s, 80s, and 90s, they are often described as the "backbone" of the Church and likely its final active generation. The prevalence of laywomen in mainstream Christian congregations is a widely accepted phenomenon that will cause little surprise amongst the research community or Christian adherents. What is surprising is that we know so little about them. Generation A laywomen have remained largely invisible in previous work on institutional religion in Euro-American countries, particularly as the focus on religion and gender has turned to youth, sexuality, and priesthood. Female Christian Generation A is on the cusp of a catastrophic decline in mainstream Christianity that accelerated during the 'post-war' (post-1945) age. The age profile of mainstream Christianity represents an increasingly aging pattern, with Generation A not being replaced by their children or grandchildren--the Baby-Boomers and generations X, Y, and Z. Generation A is irreplaceable and unique. "Generation" shares specific values, beliefs, behaviors, and orientations, therefore, when this generation finally disappears within the next five to 10 years, their knowledge, insights, and experiences will be lost forever. Abby Day both documents and interprets their religious lives and what we can learn about them and more widely, about contemporary Christianity and its future.

Download or read book Searching for Sunday written by Rachel Held Evans and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you struggling to connect with your church community? Do you find yourself questioning the core beliefs that you once held dear? Searching for Sunday, from New York Times bestselling author Rachel Held Evans is a heartfelt ode to the past and a hopeful gaze into the future of what it means to be a part of the modern church. Like millions of her millennial peers, Rachel Held Evans didn't want to go to church anymore. The hypocrisy, the politics, the gargantuan building budgets, the scandals--to her, it was beginning to feel like church culture was too far removed from Jesus. Yet, despite her cynicism and misgivings, something kept drawing Evans back to church. Evans found herself wanting to better understand the church and find her place within it, so she set out on a new adventure. Within the pages of Searching for Sunday, Evans catalogs her journey as she loves, leaves, and finds the church once again. Evans tells the story of her faith through the lens of seven sacraments of the Catholic church--baptism, confession, holy orders, communion, confirmation, the anointing of the sick, and marriage--to teach us the essential truths about what she's learned along the way, including: Faith isn't just meant to be believed, it's meant to be lived and shared in community Christianity isn't a kingdom for the worthy--it's a kingdom for the hungry, the broken, and the imperfect The countless and beautiful ways that God shows up in the ordinary parts of our daily lives Searching for Sunday will help you unpack the messiness of community, teaching us that by overcoming our cynicism, we can all find hope, grace, love, and, somewhere in between, church.

Download or read book Harvard Square written by Catherine J. Turco and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Harvard Square isn’t what it used to be.” Spend any time there, and you’re bound to hear that lament. Yet people have been saying the very same thing for well over a century. So what does it really mean that Harvard Square—or any other beloved Main Street or downtown—“isn’t what it used to be”? Catherine J. Turco, an economic sociologist and longtime denizen of Harvard Square, set out to answer this question after she started to wonder about her own complicated feelings concerning the changing Square. Diving into Harvard Square’s past and present, Turco explores why we love our local marketplaces and why we so often struggle with changes in them. Along the way, she introduces readers to a compelling set of characters, including the early twentieth-century businessmen who bonded over scotch and cigars to found the Harvard Square Business Association; a feisty, frugal landlady who became one of the Square’s most powerful property owners in the mid-1900s; a neighborhood group calling itself the Harvard Square Defense Fund that fought real estate developers throughout the 1980s and ’90s; and a local businesswoman who, in recent years, strove to keep her shop afloat amid personal tragedy, the rise of Amazon, and a globalizing property market that sent her rent soaring. Harvard Square tells the crazy, complicated love story of one quirky little marketplace and in the process, reveals the hidden love story Americans everywhere have long had with their own Main Streets and downtowns. Offering a new and powerful lens that exposes the stability and instability, the security and insecurity, markets provide, Turco transforms how we think about our cherished local marketplaces and markets in general. We come to see that our relationship with the markets in our lives is, and has always been, about our relationship with ourselves and one another, how we come together and how we come apart.
