It is the story of his own progress and regress and regeneration, as he struggled with the paradoxical nature of church history, ancient creeds, modern interpretations, and the clash of a dramatically new culture with traditional credos. The vulnerability of his journey is exposed for all to see, and the healing influence of family, friends and colleagues becomes happily apparent.

Download or read book Humour Me written by Kenneth Thompson and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenneth wrote this book at the age of twenty-one. In his high school yearbook Kenneth won ‘Funniest Twitter Account’ and has been riding off that success ever since. Every time Kenneth eats at a restaurant he tells the server that he won ‘Funniest Twitter Account’ in his high school yearbook so that they will give him a discount. They never do. Kenneth once got a parking ticket and tried explaining to the judge, in a very civil manner, that his ticket should be invalidated given that he won ‘Funniest Twitter Account’ in his high school yearbook. The judge didn’t invalidate it. Kenneth once really liked a girl who didn’t like him back even after he explained to her that he won ‘Funniest Twitter Account’ in his high school year book. She still didn’t like him back. Though his yearbook award has yet to repay him with any good fortune, Kenneth is still hopeful that he can use this success to one day get what he wants. Until then, Kenneth plans on writing books with no central theme or plot, and hopes that people develop an affinity for something in this very weird, preachy, brief anthology. He hopes you enjoy some of it.

Download or read book The Frighteners written by Peter Laws and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Frighteners is a bizarrely compelling, laugh-out-loud exploration of societies’ fascination with the dark, spooky, and downright terrifying side of life. The author--self proclaimed “sinister minister”--opens the book by reflecting on how he went from a horror-obsessed atheist to a God-fearing Christian and then reconciled his love of the macabre with his new faith. In the chapters that follow, Laws takes us on a worldwide romp to shine light on the dark corners of our own minds. An American hell house--controversial Christian “haunted houses” that act out the horrors of abortion, drug use, etc.—hosts his reflection on the use of horror in religion. A party in London with real life “vampires” exemplifies modern sexual fascination with the parasitic undead. He goes ghost hunting in an underground barbershop where a murderer used to cut hair. A professor in Denmark who is an expert on the recent Slenderman court case helps him explore the link between technology and the supernatural. In accessible and light-hearted prose, Peter Laws takes us from the dark corners of his mind to the underbelly of various macabre cultures to illuminate society’s preoccupation with death and horror. The Frighteners combines psychology, religious theory, and personal memoir to create a dynamic and fascinating read that is informative and entertaining.

Download or read book The Imperial Families of Ancient Rome written by Maxwell Craven and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2019-12-08 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman Empire was a spectacular polity of unprecedented scale which stretched from Scotland to Sudan and from Portugal to Persia. It survived for over 500 years in the west and 1,480 years in the east. Ruling it was a task of frightening complexity; few emperors made a good fist of it, yet thanks to dynastic connections, an efficient bureaucracy and a governing class eager to attain the kudos of holding the highest offices, it survived the mad, bad and incompetent emperors remarkably well. Although not always apparent, it was the interplay of emperors' kin and family connections which also made a major contribution to controlling the empire. This book aims to put on record the known ancestry, relations and descendants of all emperors, including ephemeral ones and show connections from one dynasty to another as completely as possible, accompanied by concise biographical notes about each ruler and known facts about family members, which include Romans both famous and obscure. It also attempts to distinguish between certainty and possibility and to eliminate obvious fiction. The introduction provides a narrative lead-in to the creation of the empire, attempts to clarify the complexities of Roman genealogy and assess the sources.

Download or read book A Glimpse of Galatians written by Richard J. "Dick" Hill and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Glimpse of Galatians: By Grace Alone brings to life Paul the apostle and the Galatian church. It explores their tumultuous relationship, focusing on Pauls teachings on the absolute sufficiency of Gods grace to defeat death and bring eternal life to believers. Dr. Richard J. Dick Hill promises a glimpse, but offers a finely detailed picture of the richness of Pauls proclamation and of the persistent tendency of Christians to pervert the gospel of grace by bending it to their desires to bolster Gods saving work in Jesus Christ with their own efforts. By organizing the exploration of the themes in Galatians into ten chapters, A Glimpse of Grace offers readers a theological primer on topics like death, grace, law, the meaning of Christs sacrifice, baptism, faith, the contrast between law and grace, living in grace, and liberty. Each chapter digs deeply into Pauls letter to the Galatians, draws from his other writings and the rest of the New Testament, and critiques contemporary church practices. If you have wondered about death and life, law and grace, and the meaning of Christs death and resurrection for todays world, then let A Glimpse of Galatians: By Grace Alone lead you into the mind of Paul and present his spirited response to these deep questions. Armed with his teachings, you can equip yourself to recognize distortions of the gospel, see Gods grace at work, and follow the Holy Spirits lead to return to the truth.
