Book excerpt: Do your desires have you going around in circles? You may be looking for fulfillment in all the wrong places. You vowed you’d never repeat the same mistakes—yet you find yourself right where you started. What is it that keeps drawing you back into the same old traps? The fact is, your longings are built from the blueprint of your needs: for protection, for love, for God. And those needs aren’t going anywhere. Sheila speaks candidly about the trials in her life, including the heartache of her first marriage, and intertwines her story with the biblical saga of King David. As both Sheila’s and David’s stories make clear, some cravings are misguided, but they all stem from the same hunger—and they will haunt you until that hunger gets satisfied properly. If you keep reaching out to the wrong people at the wrong times in your own life, The Longing in Me will help you understand that your cravings are not the problem. It’s where they lead you that makes all the difference.

  • Publisher : Westminster John Knox Press
  • Release : 2018-09-04
  • ISBN : 1611648807
  • Pages : 151 pages

Download or read book Learning Theology written by Amos Yong and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theology—the attempt to come to a deeper, more faithful understanding of one's encounter with God—is something to which all Christians are called. In Learning Theology, Amos Yong invites the reader to lay claim to that calling and to see it as yet another opportunity to love God. Written for those taking their first course in the subject, this book introduces the foundational sources and tasks of theology. It asks what difference theology makes in our lives, how it can influence the way we write and study, and how we understand other forms of learning as part of the Spirit's leadership. Yong encourages the reader to see all of life through the lens of faith, and Learning Theology offers tools to more thoughtfully and faithfully perform that task.

  • Pages : 107 pages

Download or read book Harry Tiebout written by Anonymous and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-02-03 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of writings by Harry Tiebout, one of the first psychiatrists to describe alcoholism as a disease, are seminal documents in the history, treatment, and understanding of alcoholism. One of the first psychiatrists to describe alcoholism as a disease rather than a moral failing or criminal activity, Harry M. Tiebout was also one of the first to wholeheartedly endorse Alcoholics Anonymous as an effective force in the struggle against compulsive drinking. This volume brings together, for the first time, some of Tiebout's most influential writings. Many of these pieces--from explorations of the therapeutic approach to alcoholism to instructive discussions of the act of surrender so crucial to recovery--are seminal documents in the history, treatment, and understanding of alcoholism. Together, they represent the significant contribution of one man to the countless lives shaken by alcoholism and steadied with the help of Alcoholics Anonymous, psychiatric intervention, and the foresight and commitment of doctors like Harry Tiebout.

Book David Hume

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nicholas T. Phillipson
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2014-05-14
  • ISBN : 0300184867
  • Pages : 195 pages

Download or read book David Hume written by Nicholas T. Phillipson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A giant of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, David Hume was one of the most important philosophers ever to write in English. He was also a brilliant historian. In this book--a new and revised edition of his 1989 classic--Nicholas Phillipson shows how Hume freed history from religion and politics. As a philosopher, Hume sought a way of seeing the world and pursuing happiness independently of a belief in God. His groundbreaking approach applied the same outlook to Britain's history, showing how the past was shaped solely through human choices and actions. In this analysis of Hume's life and works, from his university days in Edinburgh to the rapturous reception of his "History of England," Nicholas Phillipson reveals the gradual process by which one of the greatest Western philosophers turned himself into one of the greatest historians of Britain. In doing so, he shows us how revolutionary Hume was, and why his ideas still matter today.

Book The Variety of Community Experience

Download or read book The Variety of Community Experience written by Steven J. Taylor and published by Brookes Publishing Company. This book was released on 1995 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Church member. Employee. Family member. Friend. Apartment tenant. These are just some of the roles that extend beyond the stereotype of people with disabilities as dependent recipients of services and care. The Variety of Community Experience examines the lives of people with disabilities who are assuming these roles as full members of society, offering practical guidance on the proper kinds and amounts of support needed to provide opportunities for community integration." "The case studies in this compelling volume paint vivid pictures of integrated living from the viewpoint of people with disabilities rather than of service providers. These revealing vignettes give human services professionals and advocates a unique perspective on how to help people with disabilities face life issues such as making ends meet, forming friendships, getting along with neighbors, and maintaining family contacts." "Blending personal accounts with qualitative ethnographic research, this outstanding text is an essential and refreshing resource for all who work to promote community integration for people with disabilities."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
