Download or read book Charles de Foucauld written by Jean-Jacques Antier and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2022-03-23 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My Father, I put myself in your hands", wrote Charles de Foucauld in his journal. "Whatever you make of me, I thank you, I am ready for everything, I accept everything, I thank you for everything." When he was killed by bandits in 1916, the French aristocrat-turned-monk was virtually unknown. Over the course of a century, however, the radiance of Foucauld's hidden life has spread more and more, and the Church now recognizes him as a saint. His youth and early adulthood read like a novel—the loss of his parents; his education in Paris, where he abandoned the faith of his childhood; his military career in French Algeria; and his exploration of Morocco. After a conversion at the age of twenty-eight, Foucauld was charged with a desire to surrender himself completely to God, leading him eventually to a life of prayer in the Algerian desert. There he devoted himself to adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and charity toward his Muslim neighbors—even to the point of death. Jean-Jacques Antier describes Foucauld's dramatic, inspiring life in a vivid narrative style. He based his biography on the man's writings and correspondence as well as interviews with numerous people who knew him. Illustrated with sixteen pages of photos, and indexed.

Download or read book Church History Volume One From Christ to the Pre Reformation written by Everett Ferguson and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church History, Volume One offers a unique contextual view of how the Christian church spread and grew from its development in the days of Jesus to the years leading up to the Reformation. Looking closely at the integral link between the history of the world and that of the church, Church History paints a portrait of God's people within its setting of times, cultures, and events that both influenced and were influenced by the church. FEATURES: Maps, charts, and illustrations spanning the time from the first through the thirteenth centuries. Overviews of the Roman, Greek, and Jewish worlds and how they developed or declined. Insights into the church's relationship to the Roman Empire, with glimpses into pagan attitudes toward Christians. Explanations of the role of art, architecture, literature, and philosophy—both sacred and secular—in the Church. Details on the major theological controversies of the periods. Each chapter also contains callout passages from Scripture to assist in understanding the narrative of the Church, even to the present day, as part of the greater narrative of the Bible. AUTHOR'S PERSPECTIVE: Scholar and writer Everett Ferguson wrote this history of the church from the perspective that such a history is the story of the greatest movement and community the world has known. It's a human story of a divinely called people who wanted to live by a divine revelation. It's a story of how they succeeded and how they failed or fell short of their calling. From the Apostle Paul to the apologists and martyrs of the second century to Martin Luther, the historical figures detailed are people who have struggled with the meaning of the greatest event in history—the coming of the Son of God—and with their role in that event and in the lives of God's people.

Download or read book Fighting Emperors of Byzantium written by John Carr and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively history chronicles every Byzantine Emperor who personally fought in battle, from Constantine the Great to Constantine XI. The Eastern Roman or 'Byzantine' Empire had to fight for survival throughout its eleven centuries of history. Military ability was therefore a prime requisite for a successful Emperor. In Fighting Emperors of Byzantium, historian John Carr explores the personal and military histories of the fighters who occupied the imperial throne at Constantinople. They include men like its founder Constantine I , Julian, Theodosius, Justinian, Heraclius, Leo I, Leo III, Basil I, Basil II (the Bulgar-slayer), Romanus IV Diogenes, Isaac Angelus, and Constantine XI. Byzantium's emperors, and the military establishment they oversaw, can be credited with preserving Rome's cultural legacy and, from the seventh century, forming a bulwark of Christendom against aggressive Islamic expansion. For this the empire's military organization had to be of a high order, a continuation of Roman discipline and skill adapted to new methods of warfare.

Can you guess how I got my name? I am supposed to be a good kid but after you hear the story, you wont call me good. Oh, God I am sorry! I hate kids calling me, preacher boy. Why are people so cruel? My teacher told me that the two types of kids, who get into the most trouble are, policemans kids. and preachers kids. This year I may just prove it. I hope my dad dont find this, on my computer. He would kill me. Dear God, please show me if your real. I need to know. Or are you just a story like Santa Claus. I just dont know anymore. Please Jesus, help me! I have a mission.

After the funeral everyone one went up to talk to my father. I just sat there for over one half-hour. No one talked to me. It was like I wasnt there. No one cares, not even my dad. God, I dont think you do either. All dad does is tell me what to do. I just cant be that good. God forgive me. Im no Good. I gave up. It is no use. Today I start the eighth grade. I can see, its going to be a bad year. I got in the lunch line and a new boy, about 14 or 15 years old, asked me to give him some money for lunch. I thought. "Some lawmaker had the idea that he would lower the amount of money that a parent can make to receive free lunches, for their kid. That lawmaker saved money by taking food out of a kids mouth." The kid said. "Will you lone me enough money to buy lunch? I really mean: Will you give me enough money, because I cant pay you back." I saw a tear in his eye. I just knew, he was telling the truth. I never saw this boy before. I hoped this would be the last time. The boy had long hair, an old green army type shirt, and old blue jeans. I condemned him, as not being good enough. Anyone could wear better than that to school. I gave him the money he wanted. I was surprised to see him walk out of the lunchroom, and down the hallway.
