Download or read book The Seven day Rhythms of Life written by Dr. G. Kenneth Greenaway and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why the entire earth operates on a seven-day cycle? Have you thought about how even some of the smallest animals seem to follow a weekly schedule? This is NOT a coincidence. Our amazing God, having created this world in seven days, has implanted in living things a very tiny yet powerful gland that transfers information within our bodies—or even between species—by biochemical, neurological, or photonic means. The pineal gland is the rhythm-maker of our bodies and is a testament to the Sabbath created by God in Eden. This seal of our Creator is non-changing and anchored in time. As you explore the various aspects of these biological rhythms in humans, animals, birds, and even in insects and plants, you will see how there is a larger purpose to these circadian rhythms. The seven-day cycle is a gift from our Creator, our Redeemer of the world, to accept His invitation to come to Him and find the REST He desires for us in these troubled times. "Congratulations Dr Kenneth Greenaway for bringing together the evidences for the biological origins of Seven-day Rhythms in this succinct yet enlightening manuscript. As we grasp for a greater understanding of our origins may this work lead searchers for 'truth' to an eureka moment." ~ Dr. George S. Daniel M.Sc.,Ph.D.

Download or read book Time Maps written by Eviatar Zerubavel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2004-11 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As Eviatar Zerubavel demonstrates in Time Maps, we cannot answer questions such as these without a deeper understanding of how we envision the past. In a pioneering attempt to map the structure of our collective memory, Zerubavel considers the cognitive patterns we use to organize the past in our minds and the mental strategies that help us string together unrelated events into coherent and meaningful narratives, as well as the social grammar of battles over conflicting interpretations of history. Drawing on fascinating examples that range from Hiroshima to the Holocaust, from Columbus to Lucy, and from ancient Egypt to the former Yugoslavia, Zerubavel shows how we construct historical origins; how we tie discontinuous events together into stories; how we link families and entire nations through genealogies; and how we separate distinct historical periods from one another through watersheds, such as the invention of fire or the fall of the Berlin Wall.".
Download or read book Living in the Eighth Day written by Steven Underdown and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I came that you may have life and have it in all its fullness” (John 10:10). In this book, Revd Dr. Steven Underdown presents the paschal mystery—the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus—as the means by which the Son first realized that utter fullness of life which God had always intended for humankind. He also argues that it is only in and though the paschal mystery that human beings find their fulfillment. Only insofar as someone is open to be given in love is that person open to receive fullness of new life. The book explores some of the ways by which, under God’s grace, the church can establish patterns of life and worship which will enable growth into the paschal mystery. It focuses in particular on a weekly pattern of life established in various parish and monastic communities in which every week is celebrated as a kind of “Holy Week in miniature.” This pattern—termed the Pattern of the Week—is seen as providing a context for life-giving response to the divine initiative.
Download or read book The Seven Day Switch written by Kelly Harms and published by Lake Union Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two moms as opposite as a Happy Meal and a quinoa bowl. What a difference a week makes in a heartfelt, laugh-out-loud novel by the Washington Post bestselling author of The Overdue Life of Amy Byler. Celeste Mason is the Pinterest stay-at-home supermom of other mothers' nightmares. Despite her all-organic, SunButter-loving, free-range kids, her immaculate home, and her volunteering awards, she still has time to relax with a nice glass of pinot at the end of the day. The only thing that ruins it all is her workaholic, career-obsessed neighbor, who makes no secret of what she thinks of Celeste's life choices every chance she gets. Wendy Charles is a celebrated productivity consultant, columnist, and speaker. On a minute-by-minute schedule, she makes the working-mom hustle look easy. She even spends at least one waking hour a day with her kids. She's not apologizing for a thing. Especially to Celeste, who plays her superior parenting against Wendy whenever she can. Who do Celeste and Wendy think they are? They're about to find out thanks to one freaky week. After a neighborhood potluck and too much sangria, they wake up--um, what?--in each other's bodies. Everything Celeste and Wendy thought they knew about the "other kind of mom" is flipped upside down--along with their messy, complicated, maybe not so different lives.
Download or read book Lively Oracles of God written by and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reexamines what we often take for granted: how Scripture is presented to worshipers; how it is heard, especially by those with little experience of the life of the church; Scripture’s role in mediating the great narratives of incarnation and redemption at the high points of the year; where Scripture meets people in ritual transition; how the Bible itself provides the language of much public prayer. Contributors also consider how the relationship between Scripture and liturgy is tested by new priorities—the climate crisis, the inclusion and protection of children, the recognition and honoring of those who find themselves on the margins of the church, and the significance of gender and identity in all areas of the church’s life. This book does not offer definitive statements. It is an invitation to a wide audience to engage in new conversations with their practice of worship. Contributors include: · John Baldovin, SJ · Normand Bonneau, OMI · Stephen Burns · Cally Hammond · Christopher Irvine · David Kennedy · Lizette Larson-Miller · Ann Loades, CBE · Anne McGowan · Thomas O’Loughlin · Catherine Reid · Armand Léon van Ommen
Download or read book Time Maps written by Eviatar Zerubavel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-06-12 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pioneering sociologist and author of The Seven Day Circle continues his analysis of time with this fascinating look at history as social construct. Who were the first people to inhabit North America? Does the West Bank belong to the Arabs or the Jews? Why are racists so obsessed with origins? Is a seventh cousin still a cousin? Why do some societies name their children after dead ancestors? As Eviatar Zerubavel demonstrates in Time Maps, we cannot answer burning questions such as these without a deeper understanding of how we envision the past. In a pioneering attempt to map the structure of collective memory, Zerubavel considers the cognitive patterns we use to organize the past and the social grammar of conflicting interpretations of history. Drawing on fascinating examples that range from Hiroshima to the Holocaust, and from ancient Egypt to the former Yugoslavia, Zerubavel shows how we construct historical origins; how we tie discontinuous events together into stories; how we link families and entire nations through genealogies; and how we separate distinct historical periods from one another through watersheds, such as the invention of fire or the fall of the Berlin Wall. "Time Maps extends beyond all of the old clichés about linear, circular, and spiral patterns of historical process and provides us with models of the actual legends used to map history…brilliant and elegant."-Hayden White, University of California, Santa Cruz
