Book The Only Prayer You   Ll Ever Need

Download or read book The Only Prayer You Ll Ever Need written by Douglas K Fletcher PhD and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You don’t have a prayer.” Perhaps you have heard this phrase or even said it to yourself. It isn’t true. Often relegated to recitation and ritual, the Lord’s Prayer is, in fact, an ancient treasure of profound and relevant wisdom. As it teaches us how to pray, it invites us into seven critical conversations about perspective, hope, trust, our current wants and needs, forgiveness and generosity, self-awareness, and gratitude. These conversations lay out a path for growth as a human being, from alignments that deepen life to assignments that create positive impacts and bring joy to living. They also provide a guide for topics of the most important conversations we can have with others—those that can build relationships with people very different from ourselves, in our family, workplace, or community. In a world where we need to relearn how to talk and listen, it can help us reach across divisions and build bridges. Examining the Lord’s Prayer in detail, this study explores its profound wisdom and guidance for the most important conversations we can have in our lives.

Book Contemporary Thought on Nineteenth Century Conservatism

Download or read book Contemporary Thought on Nineteenth Century Conservatism written by Richard Gaunt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-09 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conservative party remains the longest-established major political party in modern British history. This collection makes available 19th century documents illuminating aspects of Conservatism through a critical period in the party’s history, from 1830 to 1874. It throws light on Conservative ideas, changing policies, party organisation and popular partisan support, showing how Conservatism evolved and responded to domestic and global change. It explores how certain clusters of ideas and beliefs comprised a Conservative view of political action and purposes, often reinforcing the importance of historic institutions such as the Anglican Church, the monarchy and the constitution. It also looks at the ways in which a broadening electorate required the marshalling of Conservative supporters through greater party organisation, and how the Conservative party became the embodiment and expression of durable popular political sentiment. The collection examines how the Conservative party became a body seeking to deliver progress combined with stability. The documents brought together in this collection give direct voice to how Conservatives of the period perceived and extolled their aspirations, aims, and the values of Conservatism. Introductory essays highlight the main themes and nature of Conservatism in a dynamic age of change and how the Conservative axiom, in an imperfect world of successful adaptation, being essential to effective preservation informed and defined the Conservative party, the views of its leaders, the beliefs of its supporters, and the political outlook they espoused. This first volume covers the period 1830-1850.

Download or read book Legacy of Violence written by Caroline Elkins and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 897 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Pulitzer Prize–winning historian: a searing study of the British Empire that probes the country's pervasive use of violence throughout the twentieth century and traces how these practices were exported, modified, and institutionalized in colonies around the globe Sprawling across a quarter of the world's land mass and claiming nearly seven hundred million people, Britain's twentieth-century empire was the largest empire in human history. For many Britons, it epitomized their nation's cultural superiority. But what legacy did the island nation deliver to the world? Covering more than two hundred years of history, Caroline Elkins reveals an evolutionary and racialized doctrine that espoused an unrelenting deployment of violence to secure and preserve the nation's imperial interests. She outlines how ideological foundations of violence were rooted in the Victorian era calls for punishing recalcitrant "natives," and how over time, its forms became increasingly systematized. And she makes clear that when Britain could no longer maintain control over the violence it provoked and enacted, it retreated from empire, destroying and hiding incriminating evidence of its policies and practices. Drawing on more than a decade of research on four continents, Legacy of Violence implicates all sides of Britain's political divide in the creation, execution, and cover-up of imperial violence. By demonstrating how and why violence was the most salient factor underwriting Britain's empire and the nation's imperial identity at home, Elkins upends long-held myths and sheds new light on empire's role in shaping the world today.

Book Fatherhood  Authority  and British Reading Culture  1831 1907

Download or read book Fatherhood Authority and British Reading Culture 1831 1907 written by Melissa Shields Jenkins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a period when the idea of fatherhood was in flux and individual fathers sought to regain a cohesive collective identity, debates related to a father’s authority were negotiated and resolved through competing documents. Melissa Shields Jenkins analyzes the evolution of patriarchal authority in nineteenth-century culture, drawing from extra-literary and non-narrative source material as well as from novels. Arguing that Victorian novelists reinvent patriarchy by recourse to conduct books, biography, religious manuals, political speeches, and professional writing in the fields of history and science, Jenkins offers interdisciplinary case studies of Elizabeth Gaskell, George Meredith, William Makepeace Thackeray, George Eliot, Samuel Butler, and Thomas Hardy. Jenkins’s book contributes to our understanding of the part played by fathers in the Victorian cultural imagination, and sheds new light on the structures underlying the Victorian novel.

Book The Rape of Socialism

Download or read book The Rape of Socialism written by Donovan Pedelty and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postmodernity allows for no absolutes and no essence. Yet theology is concerned with the absolute, the essential. How then does theology sit within postmodernity? Is postmodern theology possible, or is such a concept a contradiction in terms? Should theology bother about postmodernism or just get on with its own thing? Can it? Theologians have responded in many different ways to the challenges posed by theories of postmodernity. In this introductory guide to a complex area, editor Kevin J. Vanhoozer addresses the issue head on in a lively survey of what 'talk about God' might mean in a postmodern age, and vice versa. The book then offers examples of different types of contemporary theology in relation to postmodernity, while the second part examines the key Christian doctrines in postmodern perspective. Leading theologians contribute to this clear and informative Companion, which no student of theology should be without.

Download or read book Racism and the Tory Party written by Mike Cole and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racism is an endemic feature of the Tory Party. Tracing the history of that racism, Racism and the Tory Party investigates the changing forms of racism in the party from the days of Empire, including the championing of imperialism at the turn of the 20th century and the ramping up of antisemitism, the imperial and ‘racial’ politics of Winston Churchill, the rise of Enoch Powell and Powellism, to the Margaret Thatcher years, the birth of ‘racecraft’ and her polices in Northern Ireland, and the hostile environment and its consolidation and expansion under Theresa May and Boris Johnson’s premierships. Throughout the book, all forms of racism are addressed including the various forms of colour-coded and as well as non-colour-coded racism as they are put in their historical and economic contexts. This book should be of relevance to all interested in British politics and British history, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students studying the sociology and politics of racism, as well as for students of the history of the development of British racism and of imperialism and its aftermath.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book challenges the common view that the Exhibition symbolized peace, progress, prosperity, and the emergence of an industrial middle class.
