Download or read book Amongst Thistles and Thorns written by Austin Clarke and published by New Canadian Library. This book was released on 1984 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Set in Barbados in the early 1950s, this uncompromising novel depicts the pain of childhood in a world where poverty and blackness are despised, and kids are treated as objects on which adults can take out their self-contempt and frustration. Milton Sobers is a nine-year-old on the run from a series of sadistic beatings from both his schoolmaster and his washer-woman mother. Dreaming of a life in Harlem, which is predominately black, open, and free, Milton encounters many comic and sad adventures that inevitably return him to the situation he was trying to escape. Originally published in 1965, this pertinent portrayal of the destruction of innocence explores the commonality of physical violence in the lives of Caribbean youth while offering hope for the intelligent child protagonist."--Goodreads

Book excerpt: With the onslaught of reflections and other biblical materials available online, I have thought it best to welcome the challenge of putting into writing my homilies for each Sunday celebration. Hence, as a form of sharing, these written homilies are meant to help us appreciate our sense of discipleship. Like the seemingly endless footsteps of Christ in our lives, the gift of the Spirit leads us to be united in one faith that captures the sense of transformation as implied in gospel reflections. It is like a personal diary that attempts to lift the weight of Christ's message within the richness of human experiences. As discipleship demands new perspectives and priorities, these homilies articulate relationships in a variety of settings, images, and lifestyles of being in the world with others. Though they help us understand the presence of God in our lives, living with our own mystery and spirituality becomes like a "dependable compass" that is always there to guide us. It is our road map as we walk by faith and not by sight alone. Jesus' life, teaching, and ministry in a particular place, time, and culture have great significance to our journey, as far as our mission is concerned. He identifies himself with the people across cultures and he enters into solidarity with those in need.

Download or read book Thorns Thistles written by William Cory Stanley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have spent my life searching for words to express the depth of a wound that can only be shared in tears. Beyond translation, more powerful than words, tears are a language God understands and a dialect we learn in thorns and thistles. While letters drop from words like falling stars, and tears shadow the rain, God whispers through my pain. In poetry and prose, these words are my faith, hope, and love for those with a lack thereof, those still wishing on stars above. My consolation, highest honor, would be souls unbound. Might the words of my life be your lost and found? I pray between these lines, God consumes your heart and mind, and His peace you find.

Book excerpt: "And God said to Adam, '...I have placed a curse on the ground. All of your life you will struggle to scratch a living from it. It will grow thorns and thistles for you, though you will eat of its grains. All of your life you will sweat to produce food, until your dying day, then you will return to the ground from which you came. For you were made from dust, and to dust you will return.'" (Genesis 3:17-19, NLT)The Ohio River Valley is home to a city of seven hills that stands in a crucial era of modernity and post-enlightenment. In this modern retelling extracted from the book of Genesis, the protagonist, Jacob Peniel, wrestles and questions his existence and hisrole in the world, attempting to understand God in both theory and practicality.What we believe about God or godlessness is a battle of wits that we often come to unarmed. It is through pivotal relationships and zealous intellect that good theology is developed, and not religion. Ultimately, it comes down to a decision that must be made. Will Jacob pursue God or will he spend his life in insolent vanity and pretend too?The answer lies between the "Thorns and Thistles."
