Download or read book When God Was Flesh and Wild written by Bob Haverluck and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When God Was Flesh and Wild is dramatic and whimsical storytelling for adults at the service of faith and justice. Artist, storyteller, and theologian Bob Haverluck offers a rollicking set of stories—together with provocative cartoons and original music—that provide poetic takes on Daniel’s king of bigger and more; Jesus of the wilderness; Easter week, Jesus and the creaturely earth; and prison island John and the musical earth. The result is a more imaginative way to engage issues of conflict against the earth and her creatures in the light of God’s abiding providence and the witness of Scripture. Humorous, harsh, and persistently hopeful, When God Was Flesh and Wild will be an unforgettable reading experience for any person of faith.

Download or read book Living with a Wild God written by Barbara Ehrenreich and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed comes a brave, frank, and exquisitely written memoir that will change the way you see the world. Barbara Ehrenreich is one of the most important thinkers of our time. Educated as a scientist, she is an author, journalist, activist, and advocate for social justice. In Living With a Wild God, she recounts her quest-beginning in childhood-to find ""the Truth"" about the universe and everything else: What's really going on? Why are we here? In middle age, she rediscovered the journal she had kept during her tumultuous adolescence, which records an event so strange, so cataclysmic, that she had never, in all the intervening years, written or spoken about it to anyone. It was the kind of event that people call a ""mystical experience""-and, to a steadfast atheist and rationalist, nothing less than shattering. In Living With a Wild God, Ehrenreich reconstructs her childhood mission, bringing an older woman's wry and erudite perspective to a young girl's impassioned obsession with the questions that, at one point or another, torment us all. The result is both deeply personal and cosmically sweeping-a searing memoir and a profound reflection on science, religion, and the human condition. With her signature combination of intellectual rigor and uninhibited imagination, Ehrenreich offers a true literary achievement-a work that has the power not only to entertain but amaze.

You will discover: What we should and should not eat to enjoy maximum physical health. How food is intimately connected to our spiritual well being.

How the Word of Wisdom was designed specifically for our day. How you can receive the “hidden treasures” and other blessings promised in the Word of Wisdom. Why eating the foods God has ordained for our use is better not just for our bodies, but for the animals and for the earth. You may think you know what the Word of Wisdom says, but you’ll be amazed at what you have missed. Learn why Mormons all over the world are “waking up” to the Word of Wisdom!

Download or read book Gospel Fluency written by Jeff Vanderstelt and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: flu·en·cy / noun :the ability to speak a language easily and effectively Even if they want to, many Christians find it hard to talk to others about Jesus. Is it possible this difficulty is because we're trying to speak a language we haven't actually spent time practicing? To become fluent in a new language, you must immerse yourself in it until you actually start to think about life through it. Becoming fluent in the gospel happens the same way—after believing it, we have to intentionally rehearse it (to ourselves and to others) and immerse ourselves in its truths. Only then will we start to see how everything in our lives, from the mundane to the magnificent, is transformed by the hope of the gospel.

Download or read book Ephesians Evangelical Exegetical Commentary written by S. M. Baugh and published by EEC. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul emphasizes the unity of believers in the inaugurated new creation. He first sets before his audience the salvation freely offered to us through faith in Christ, then applies this truth to their lives, calling them to live lives of love. In this volume, S. M. Baugh approaches this important letter from a first-century perspective, examining ancient sources to determine what Paul's words meant in their ancient context, while also interacting with recent scholarship. The result is a commentary that is academically rigorous and at the same time presents Ephesians as the good news it was meant to be. About the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary Series: The Evangelical Exegetical Commentary series incorporates the latest in critical biblical scholarship and is written from a distinctly evangelical perspective. Each comprehensive volume combines historical and literary explanations with insights for understanding the text within the Bible's larger story and applying it to everyday life.

Download or read book The Works of the Flesh written by Michael Caputo and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evils abound in our world. Satan, “the Prince of the power of the air,” as Paul instructed us, definitely “works in the children of disobedience.” (Eph. 2: 2 NKJV). The results of his evil efforts are greed, unbridled immorality, broken homes, murders, wars and many other evils that are making our world evermore unlivable. These are the signs that Satan is indeed “The God of this world” (II Corinthians 4: 4 KJV). The Devil continually tempts humans into participating into his evil deeds, listed by the Apostle Paul in Galatians chapter five as “The Works of the Flesh.” Christians must be aware of these Works, and must know their manifestations well for, as Paul warns, “they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God” (II Corinthians 4:4 KJV). This book is meant to enlighten those who want to know the Works of the Flesh in depth. Each word used by Paul in Galatians 5 will be analyzed thoroughly, and time will be spent analyzing the psychological and societal manifestations of the evil each word represents. Lastly, plentiful biblical and sensible advice will be provided on how to be victorious in our war against Satan and his Works.
