Download or read book The Many Faces of Jesus written by Dr. Rahmat Mazaheri Seif, M. D. and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2015-09-09 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The church’s vision of Jesus as a perfect man and a perfect God is not acceptable by all the branches of Christianity in the world. In fact, what is acceptable to one branch is sometimes an anathema to another. Today, the Catholic and the Protestant churches consider the church of the original apostles heretical! In this book, (which is the fruit of about eight years of hard work and is assiduously researched among the writings of the ante and post-Nicene fathers of the church), the author has exegetically dissected the four Canonical and several apocryphal Gospels in search of a clear vision of Jesus. The Gospels have placed the truth of the divinity of Jesus on the basis of virginal birth, the miracles, the prophecies of the Old Testament. The author by producing fresh arguments have effectively refuted the veracity of these claims. His unprecedented conversational treatment of the incomprehensible doctrine of Trinity is interesting and revealing. He has found the incomplete birth of the doctrine in the writings of one of the early fathers of the church in the second century, and has followed its gradual development by the successive fathers of the next couple of centuries, to what it is today. In the meantime, in every step of the way, he convincingly demonstrates the untenability of the doctrine.
Download or read book Your Many Faces written by Virginia Satir and published by Celestial Arts. This book was released on 2011-04-20 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each one of us has a medley of "faces" that composes our individual personality: intelligence, anger, love, jealousy, helplessness, courage, and many more. We're often quick to judge these characteristics as either positive or negative, without recognizing that we need each of them in order to become fuller, more balanced human beings. Originally written in 1978 by renowned psychotherapist Virginia Satir, the timeless classic Your Many Faces has been updated and reissued—and is as relevant today as ever. In a refreshingly candid style, Satir takes us on a lively and insightful journey of self-discovery and transformation. We learn how to acknowledge, understand, and manage our many faces—and in doing so, open up a world of possibilities for ourselves. This new edition also features a compelling foreword by Mary Ann Norfleet, PhD, which explores Satir's pioneering approaches to psychology and her enduring legacy in the field of family therapy.

The character Sarah had a lot of bad experiences with some black men at a young age. Sarah discovered that she had other personalities at fifty- years old. The incident that made her aware of her condition could have landed her in jail. Instead it landed her in therapy.

I hope my readers enjoy the characters I created from The MANY FACES OF ME Brenda.

Download or read book Mary Called Magdalene written by Margaret George and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2003-05-27 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of The Splendor Before the Dark reveals the untold story of Mary Magdalene—a disciple of Jesus Christ and the most mysterious woman in the Bible. Was Mary Magdalene a prostitute, a female divinity figure, a church leader, or all of those? Biblical references to her are tantalizingly brief, but we do know that she was the first person to whom the risen Christ appeared—and the one commissioned to tell others the good news, earning her the ancient honorific, “Apostle to the Apostles.” Today, Mary continues to spark controversy, curiosity, and veneration. In a vivid re-creation of Mary Magdalene's life story, Margaret George convincingly captures this renowned woman's voice as she moves from girlhood to womanhood, becomes part of the circle of disciples, and comes to grips with the divine. While grounded in biblical scholarship and secular research, Mary, Called Magdalene ultimately transcends both history and fiction to become a “diary of a soul.”
Download or read book Full of Grace written by Judith Dupre and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two thousand years ago, a girl from Nazareth was transformed by a simple “yes” into the Mother of God—the subject of sublime devotion, divisive controversy, and extravagant speculation. A mother and a virgin, a saint and a peasant, a woman both tragic and triumphant, Mary has held sway over the human imagination for centuries. Yet she has never felt as relevant to our everyday lives as she does today. In Full of Grace, Judith Dupré, the bestselling author of Churches, offers an intimate exploration of this beloved figure, now and through the ages. In a series of poignant stories and essays, Dupré examines Mary’s artistic, cultural, and historical influence, and at the same time shows how Mary’s human journey of love, compassion, grief, and humble strength inextricably connects her to our modern lives. Accompanied by a breathtaking visual feast ranging from classic Renaissance portraits to unexpected contemporary images, Dupré’s text offers insights into the Virgin Mary as a mother and as a religious icon. Visits to the great shrines of Marian pilgrimage—Lourdes, Medjugorje, Fatima, and the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe—underscore the author’s journey to find Mary’s meaning in her own life. In an essay about Mary in the Qur’an, we see how Mary, far from being an exclusively Catholic figure, emerges as one of the central women in Islam. Another piece details the author’s travels in the Holy Land, a landscape wracked by religious strife but still overflowing with the spirit of generosity that Mary embodies. From Sudanese refugee camps to the painful reminders of Auschwitz, from the struggle of divorce to the challenges of raising a child with autism, we see how Mary’s tenderness, bravery, and grace infuse the story of every mother, young and old. For men and women seeking to better understand their own life journey, this book looks at the many miracles, large and small, along the way. From the Hardcover edition.

Download or read book The Many Faces of Christ written by Philip Jenkins and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are often told that early Christianity comprised a vast multitude of strange sects, and that this diversity was wiped out in the fourth century when the Church canonized the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. But how, then, can we explain that the scene of the baby Jesus in the mangerthe central image of the Christmas storyshows the influence of the Protevangelium,” or that our belief that the Serpent in Eden is Satan comes from another so-called Lost Gospel? In [Title TK], Philip Jenkins offers a revelatory new history of Christianity, showing that hundreds of these supposedly lost alternate gospels were never suppressed by the early Church, but instead remained widely influential until the Reformationand continue to play major roles in Christian belief to this day. An authoritative account of the formation of the biblical canon and the evolution of modern faith,[Title TK] restores the Lost Gospels” to their proper place in history and in belief.
