Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know someone who lives in a haunted house? What would you do if you moved into a haunted house? The story you are about to read is true. In fact it is the story of me and my family. I decided I wanted to move but where should I move to. I decided maybe I should leave the city and look further up north. I never expected to come this far up but here we are. They always say you never know what you're looking for until it hits you. One rainy Saturday morning I took the trip Upstate a three hour drive one way to meet with the real estate lady for another day of house hunting. This day I found the house I was looking for, or did it find me? Why I say this is because this is the house that I and my children said we didn't want when she had sent us the pictures over the internet. When the family and I went to meet with the real estate lady and the house inspector something happened that caught our attention as well as the attention of the real estate lady. I don't think we were wanted here. The Spirits did many things to send us away. I didn't get flustered too quickly though. I knew I needed help with this problem but who would I call. Now my hunt was on, I knew I needed to contact the paranormal society to get help. I started going through the internet. I found a chapter in Pennsylvania that was able to help me. Join me as I tell our story of what life is like in a home inhabited by Spirits. It's certainly never dull. I am a single mother of two children ages now 7 and 12 who wasn't happy in her environment or surroundings. My home life, my job, my neighborhood were all getting me down. I wanted out of everything. I took a big chance moving away from my family. My in laws also took a chance with me. I was making a new start for myself, my children and my in laws. I was scared not knowing where I would end up. It took me a year of house hunting, trying to find a home that I could afford. Searching in Queens or Brooklyn was impossible the prices there were astronomical. I always take chances in my life and usually stand on my feet like a cat in the end. This house wasn't on my list of possibilities but here I am two years later with a story to tell.

Book Puppet and Spirit  Ritual  Religion  and Performing Objects

Download or read book Puppet and Spirit Ritual Religion and Performing Objects written by Claudia Orenstein and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-17 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology of essays, a companion to Puppet and Spirit: Ritual, Religion, and Performing Objects, Volume I, aims to explore the many types of relationships that exist between puppets, broadly speaking, and the immaterial world. The allure of the puppet goes beyond its material presence as, historically and throughout the globe, many uses of puppets and related objects have expressed and capitalized on their posited connections to other realms or ability to serve as vessels or conduits for immaterial presence. The flip side of the puppet’s troubling uncanniness is precisely the possibilities it represents for connecting to discarnate realities. Where do we see such connections in contemporary artistic work in various mediums? How do puppets open avenues for discussion in a world that seems to be increasingly polarized around religious values? How do we describe, analyze, and theorize the present moment? What new questions do puppets address for our times, and how does the puppet’s continued entanglement with these concerns trouble or comfort us? The essays in this book, from scholars and practitioners, provide a range of useful models and critical vocabularies for addressing this aspect of puppet performance, further expanding the growing understanding and appreciation of puppetry generally. This book, along with its companion volume, offers, for the first time, robust coverage of this subject from a diversity of voices, examples, and perspectives.

Book Holy Spirit and Religious Experience in Christian Literature ca  AD 90 200

Download or read book Holy Spirit and Religious Experience in Christian Literature ca AD 90 200 written by John Eifion Morgan-Wynne and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Holy Spirit and Religious Experience' seeks to find out how far the centrality of the Holy Spirit in Christian experience during the earliest period of the church was maintained or diminished in the third to the fifth generations (ca. AD 90-200). Three themes are explored. First, the sense of encounter with the divine presence, the numinous, a sense of being caught up into the divine being or being overwhelmed by the One who is beyond us. Secondly, a sense of being illuminated in respect to the truth, given deeper understanding of God's purpose, whether for the individual or the congregation, or guided in decision-making. Thirdly, a sense of ethical empowerment, an awareness of being helped by divine power, assisted in a course of action or development of character, in grappling with temptation, or in the ultimate test of loyalty, martyrdom. This book is arranged geographically, from Syria and Asia Minor in the East to Rome and Gaul in the West, including North Africa and Egypt. Christian authors within these areas are examined chronologically, from the later New Testament writers through the second century to Clement of Alexandria and Tertullian of Carthage, for the evidence they supply. The variegated picture which emerges, it is contended, reflects second-century Christianity.

Book God and the Pandemic

Download or read book God and the Pandemic written by TOM WRIGHT and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Superbly written, utterly Bible based. . . Do not hesitate!’ Archbishop Justin Welby What are we supposed to think about the coronavirus crisis? Some people think they know: ‘This is a sign of the End,’ they say. ‘It’s all predicted in the book of Revelation.’ Others disagree but are equally clear: ‘This is a call to repent. God is judging the world and through this disease he’s telling us to change.’ Some join in the chorus of blame and condemnation: ‘It’s the fault of the Chinese, the government, the World Health Organization...' Tom Wright examines these reactions to the virus and finds them wanting. Instead, he invites you to consider a different way of seeing and responding – a way that draws on the teachings and examples of scripture, and above all on the way of living, thinking and praying revealed to us by Jesus.

Book Chinese Central Asia

Download or read book Chinese Central Asia written by Sir Clarmont Percival Skrine and published by . This book was released on 1926 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese Central Asia written in the 1920s is an interesting travelogue of the journey undertaken overland to Chinese Turkistan through the Karakoram Mountains and Passes, by C P Skrine the then British Consular General to Chinese Turkistan. Our journey starts in dusty Quetta on the borders of Iran. It is a story of the times when the main form of travel was on horse back or on foot. The luxury of road or air travel was not available to those who wished to travel to the more out-of-the-way regions of the world at that time. This opportunity to travel was so inviting to both the author and his wife that he jumped at the chance to visit this region. The author leaves no stone unturned to complete his tour and to give us a vivid description of his travels in this remote region. In his introduction Younghusband makes a very pertinent statement when he says that our impression of the unchanging belief in the unchangeable east is shattered by the bowler hatted Chinese representative who meets our travellers. Our author takes us to many places in his journey and each step gives us a vivid idea of the vistas and ways of the people of that time. His travels awake an interest in all of us who have the wanderlust and a desire to visit distant places in this world.

Book The Philosophy of the Spirit

Download or read book The Philosophy of the Spirit written by Horatio W. Dresser and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a tradition that certain subjects are sacred and can never become matters of scientific inquiry. One of these ineffable subjects is the relationship of God to man in the highest ranges of human experience, particularly in those beatific moments when, in expectant solitude or social worship, the soul communes with the Father. But in these self-conscious days psychology has been triumphantly carried into all fields, and if psychological descriptions have sometimes been irreverent it is a question, not of retreat, but of the analysis which affords the most appreciative description. The success which has attended the psychology of religion shows that very much is to be gained by undertaking an account of the higher experiences of men. What must be said in behalf of the sacred or ineffable may be added when science has achieved its utmost. In the following pages I have ventured to mediate between science and religion by endeavoring to be appreciatively true to the everlasting realities of the religious life while taking account of and passing beyond the results attained by modern psychology. If no subject should more deeply inspire our reverence than that of the presence of God, none is more worthy of our thought. Accordingly I offer what I believe to be a contribution to the study of problems which pertain to a field midway between the philosophy of religion and constructive idealism. Advocates of various points of view may meet in this common field to study questions that are rightfully prior to the development of their special views. Each may make such qualification as he will, but all must be concerned with the issues here shown to be fundamental.
