Book I Am the Word

Download or read book I Am the Word written by Paul Selig and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-06-24 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The channeled Guides of I Am the Word provide a concise and immensely powerful program in self-awareness that can ease negative complexes and align your existence with its highest purpose. Humanity has lost itself. Both as individuals and as a world culture, we have forgotten our true nature. In I Am the Word, writer and medium Paul Selig has recorded an extraordinary program for self- realization, as dispensed through beings of higher intelligence, sometimes called Guides or Ascended Masters. These figures seek, as they have in the past, to assist men and women in discovering the higher, purposeful nature-or "Christed Self"-that lies dormant within us all. In a series of enticing, irresistibly practical dialogues, the Guides of I Am the Word identify the emotional "boulders" that displace our authentic selves and consume our potential. The Guides provide to-the-point psychological and existential insights, along with self-developing exercises and affirmations, which begin to strip away residues of fear, self-doubt, and self-suffocating habits.

Book Ways of the Word

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sally A. Brown
  • Publisher : Fortress Press
  • Release : 2016-05-19
  • ISBN : 1506410308
  • Pages : 283 pages

Download or read book Ways of the Word written by Sally A. Brown and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2016-05-19 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preaching, and the discipline of preaching, is at a crossroads. The changing realities of church and theological education, the diversity of our classrooms, and our increasingly complex community contexts leave us in search of tools to help train a rising generation of preachers for a future whose contours are far from clear. The questions are immense: How to support preachers in contexts that are diverse religiously, culturally, and ethnically, both inside and outside the church? How to help students take varied contexts seriously as they are formed as leaders? In Ways of the Word, a dynamic team of master preachers brings much-needed help. Different in race, gender, age, and tradition, both Sally A. Brown and Luke A. Powery speak with one voice their belief that preaching is Spirit-empowered event: an embodied, vocalized, actively received, here-and-now witness to the ongoing work of God in the world. They aspire to help students and preachers alike to reflect on a journey of learning by doing. They aim to help preachers to become more attuned to the Spirit, more adept in preaching’s component skills, and more self-aware about all that is at stake in proclaiming the redemptive work of God in specific contexts.

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dale Hansen
  • Publisher : WestBow Press
  • Release : 2017-07-31
  • ISBN : 1512797693
  • Pages : 64 pages

Download or read book One Week at a Time written by Dale Hansen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes we are too intense to track how often we read the Bible and try to read a devotional every day to check it off our list. We focus for a time, miss a day, get a new verse or verses tomorrow, and start all over to try for a reading every day. What if we could work on the same reading for a week—same verse or verses, same application—and transform our lives to follow God through his Word one week at a time? We can set a foundation of a manageable list of verses to pray through and memorize, learn the overview of the verses or chapter, and find an application for our lives to apply the rest of the week. Whether by yourself, with a friend, or in a small group, you can become more knowledgeable on how God uses the writers and people of the Bible to challenge us forward in our walk with God today.

Book Experiencing God s Word One Dog At A Time

Download or read book Experiencing God s Word One Dog At A Time written by C. B. and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-09-26 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you yearning for a closer, more dynamic relationship with God? A relationship that is more alive and exciting than any you have ever experienced in your life but think that you're not "good enough"? Well, guess what? God is yearning for the exact same type of relationship with each one of us, regardless of how "unworthy" we may think we are. God is not distant, impersonal, or uncaring but longs for us to know Him at a real intimate, personal level. As you'll read, God is as close to you as those things that you hold dearest to your heart. And because He knows us better than we know ourselves, He knows exactly how to initiate that relationship with us. Experiencing God's Word One Dog at a Time is a lighthearted, self-deprecating look at how God personally applies the relevance of His word in the real-life experiences of one struggling, backsliding Christian. Using those things that are closest to the author's heart (pet dogs), God shows His concern over everything in our life and proves His character as revealed in scripture through what can only be called miracles. In doing so, He displays His awesome power and control and His desire to be an active participant in all aspects of our life.

Book Word Order and Time in Biblical Hebrew Narrative

Download or read book Word Order and Time in Biblical Hebrew Narrative written by Tal Goldfajn and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1998-07-30 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the problem of temporal interpretation within narrative of the biblical Hebrew verb, thus exploring the broader issue of the expression of time in language and the ways in which we can attempt to understand and represent it. Tal Goldfajn offers a summary of this controversy, which has been argued over since at least the tenth century, presenting previous scholarly opinions and theories. She argues that one possible way of understanding the fundamental meanings of the Hebrew verbs is by examining the role played in ordering time by the four main verb forms used in biblical Hebrew narrative. Accordingly, emphasis is given to the intersentential use of these forms and the variety of interesting ways in which they establish the order of events.

Book The Right Word in the Right Place at the Right Time

Download or read book The Right Word in the Right Place at the Right Time written by William Safire and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past twenty-five years Americans have relied on Pulitzer Prize-winning wordsmith William Safire for their weekly dose of linguistic illumination in The New York Times Magazine's column "On Language" -- one of the most popular features of the magazine and a Sunday-morning staple for innumerable fans. He is the most widely read writer on the English language today. Safire is the guru of contemporary vocabulary, speech, language, usage and writing. Dedicated and disputatious readers itch to pick up each column and respond to the week's linguistic wisdom with a gotcha letter to the Times. The Right Word in the Right Place at the Right Time marks the publication of Safire's sixteenth book on language. This collection is a classic to be read, re-read, enjoyed and fought over. Fans, critics and fellow linguists wait with bated (from the French abattre "to beat down") breath for each new anthology -- and, like its predecessors, this one is bound to satisfy and delight. Safire finds fodder for his columns in politics and current events, as well as in science, technology, entertainment and daily life. The self-proclaimed card-carrying language maven and pop grammarian is not above tackling his own linguistic blunders as he detects language trends and tracks words, phrases and clichés to their source. Scholarly, entertaining and thoughtful, Safire's critical observations about language and slanguage are at once provocative and enlightening. Safire is America's go-to guy when it comes to language, and he has included sharp and passionately opinionated letters from readers across the English-speaking world who have been unable to resist picking up a pen to put the maven himself in his place or to offer alternate interpretations, additional examples, amusing anecdotes or just props. The Right Word in the Right Place at the Right Time is a fascinating, learned and piquant look at the oddities and foibles that find their way into the English language. Exposing linguistic hooey and rigamarole and filled with Safire's trademark wisdom, this book has a place on the desk or bedside table of all who share his profound love of the English language -- as well as his penchant for asking "What does that mean?" Or, "Wassat?" This new collection is sure to delight readers, writers and word lovers everywhere and spark the interest of anyone who has ever wondered, "Where did the phrase 'brazen hussy' come from?"

Book Orientations    Space time image word

Download or read book Orientations Space time image word written by Claus Clüver and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2005 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on papers presented at the Fifth Triennial Conference of the International Association of Word and Image Studies (IAWIS/AERTI) held in 2002 in Hamburg, the twenty-two essays in this volume cover a wide array of intermedial relations and a great variety of media, from medieval architecture to interactive digital art. They have been arranged in sections labeled "History and Identity," "Cultural Memory," "Texts and Photographs: Cultural Anthropology and Cultural Memory," "Mixed-Media Texts: Cartography in Contemporary Art and Fiction," "Mixed-Media Texts: 'Yellow-Cover Books', Artists' Books, and Comics," "Intermedia Texts: Logotypes," and "Space, Spatialization, Virtual Space." Displaying a range of methods and interests, these contributions by scholars from Europe, the United States, and South America working in different disciplines confirm the impression voiced by IAWIS president Charlotte Schoell-Glass in her introduction that "the influence of Visual and Cultural Studies has changed the outlook of many who study the interactions of texts and images".

  • Release : 2016-03-22
  • ISBN : 1438420714
  • Pages : 254 pages

Download or read book Words from the Soul written by Stuart Sovatsky and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accepting relentless impermanence as the ground of human experience, Words from the Soul derives a spiritual psychology from the mystery and poignancy of time-passage itself. Drawing from Wittgenstein, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Foucault, Dostoyevsky, Buddhism, kundalini yoga, and twenty-five years of clinical/mediation experience, the author's epigrammatic insights into our struggles with mortality, gratitude, apology, and forgiveness make this book relevant to psychotherapy and conflict resolution in a wide range of professional settings. In his exploration of the furthest-reaches of human development, Stuart Sovatsky reveals the deepest potentials of the ensouled body, transforming our views of language, sexuality, ecstatic spiritualities, and of the human life cycle.
