Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Religion The want of a practical, personal and experimental inward religion has long been everywhere confessed by observing and unbiased men, and as far as the want can be supplied by information from the pen of experience, so far may this little work demand the consideration of persons religiously disposed. Its simple disclosures of truth may also give opponents matter for brief reflection amid their constant declamations, and if not productive of conviction, will necessarily incite a more zealous opposition than is shown toward existing semblances of religion. Most of the subjects are treated in such a partial manner as allies them to the experiences met with in beginning a life of practical inward religion, interspersed with the explanations and refutations that seem necessary for the information of the ignorant and the opposed. In lauding conscience, or the spirit of God in man, a sufficient foundation is recognized to base the whole system of religion upon; but, with slight exceptions, no attempt is made to trace existing connections, as in so doing the work would better suit the studious tastes of religious philosophers, were it ably demonstrated, than an adaptation to simple minds craving an experience in the virtues and blessings of truth.

Download or read book The Language of God written by Francis Collins and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr Francis S. Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists, working at the cutting edge of the study of DNA, the code of life. Yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God. How does he reconcile the seemingly unreconcilable? In THE LANGUAGE OF GOD he explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes the reader on a stunning tour of modern science to show that physics, chemistry and biology -- indeed, reason itself -- are not incompatible with belief. His book is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of all: why are we here? How did we get here? And what does life mean?
Download or read book Practically Religious written by Ian Reader and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1998-10-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praying for practical benefits (genze riyaku) is a common religious activity in Japan. Despite its widespread nature and the vast numbers of people who pray and purchase amulets and talismans for everything from traffic safety and education success to business prosperity and protection from disease, the practice has been virtually ignored in academic studies or relegated to the margins as a uh_product of superstition or an aberration from the true dynamics of religion. Basing their work on a fusion of textual, ethnographic, historical, and contemporary studies, the authors of this volume demonstrate the fallacy of such views, showing that, far from being marginal, the concepts and practices surrounding genze riyaku lie at the very heart of the Japanese religious world. They thrive not only as popular religious expression but are supported by the doctrinal structures of most Buddhist sects, are ordained in religious scriptures, and are promoted by monastic training centers, shrines, and temples. Benefits are both sought and bought, and the authors discuss the economic and commercial aspects of how and why institutions promote practical benefits. They draw attention to the dynamism and flexibility in the religious marketplace, where new products are offered in response to changing needs. Intertwined in these economic activities and motivations are the truth claims that underpin and justify the promotion and practice of benefits. The authors also examine the business of guidebooks, which combine travel information with religious advice, including humorous and distinctive forms of prayer for the protection against embarrassing physical problems and sexual diseases. Written in a direct and engaging style, Practically Religious will appeal to a wide range of readers and will be especially valuable to those interested in religion, anthropology, Buddhist studies, sociology, and Japanese studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ever before, many of us are struggling to cope with the trials and tribulations of modern life. In this concise and eloquent volume, D. Patrick Miller inspires us to meet these challenges with a practical faith, which he describes as "the way out of misery, the way into self-knowledge, and the way toward a more fulfilling and effective life." Miller outlines a path to a "useful spirituality" that can be floowed by anyone with or without traditional religious beliefs. In four lucid steps--Releasing Guilt, Gathering Trust, Practicing Patience, and Learning Transcendence--Miller shows how to develop a practical faith in the midst of everyday life. A journalist by trade who has rediscovered the value of faith after a health and spiritual crisis, he condenses years of personal and professional study into an exceptional synthesis of contemporary wisdom. In today's tumultuous world, The Book of Practical Faith offers all of us an invaluable gift: a sensible path toward an everyday experience of faith that is at once pragmatic and profound.

Download or read book Daughters in My Kingdom written by Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book was released on 2011 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first meeting of the Relief Society, Sister Emma Smith said, “We are going to do something extraordinary.” She was right. The history of Relief Society is filled with examples of ordinary women who have accomplished extraordinary things as they have exercised faith in Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Relief Society was established to help prepare daughters of God for the blessings of eternal life. The purposes of Relief Society are to increase faith and personal righteousness, strengthen families and homes, and provide relief by seeking out and helping those in need. Women fulfill these purposes as they seek, receive, and act on personal revelation in their callings and in their personal lives. This book is not a chronological history, nor is it an attempt to provide a comprehensive view of all that the Relief Society has accomplished. Instead, it provides a historical view of the grand scope of the work of the Relief Society. Through historical accounts, personal experiences, scriptures, and words of latter-day prophets and Relief Society leaders, this book teaches about the responsibilities and opportunities Latter-day Saint women are given in Heavenly Father’s plan of happiness.
