Philippa is a massively successful Instagramer at @5ftinf and yet she is only too aware how these little two dimensional squares can limit our experiences and restrict our creativity, so it’s not without a little irony that she’s written a book to encourage people to step away from their screens and connect more with the 3D world. It’s a fascinating subject and I wholeheartedly recommend the book for anyone who’s working in the creative industry or is curious about the world around them." - Sophie Robinson (DIY SOS, the Great British Interior Design Challenge, This Morning) How often do you notice the texture of a painted wall or the scent of a friend’s house and, importantly, how they make you feel?

Download or read book Water Shaping Stone written by Kathryn Lilla Cox and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Tradition requires the faithful to form and follow their conscience. This is the case even with the recognition that consciences can be malformed and one can make errors in practical judgments. Water Shaping Stone examines various aspects of this tradition regarding conscience by using, among other sources, twentieth-century magisterial documents, theologians’ works, and Scripture. Kathryn Lilla Cox argues that while the Magisterium retains teaching authority, and a responsibility to help form consciences through its teaching, focusing only on the Magisterium leads to incomplete formation. A more holistic vision of conscience formation means considering the formation of the moral agent to be a multifaceted process that draws on, for example, teaching, prayer, rituals, Scripture, practices, and virtues, along with relationships with the Triune God and communities of accountability. This vision of conscience formation retains the magisterial teaching authority while acknowledging discipleship as the theological basis for making and assessing practical judgments of conscience.

Download or read book Man Woman and God written by Christopher Alan Anderson and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This writing presents to man find a new conception and definition of "God" based on man and woman balance (procreative love). It includes four separate works: The Community of Man and Woman; The Eternal Marriage; I Carry the Cross, too: The Completion of the Message of Jesus Christ; and Man, Woman, and God. "The new theology of creative balance presents us with a new Trinity. The new Trinity is comprised of God the Father and God the Mother, their interaction (love) together creating the holy (pure) child. It is balanced. We leave behind the old Trinity of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We leave it behind because it did not place male and female in the position of co-creator with their other half." Man, Woman, and God: Four Collected Works Author Bio: Christopher Alan Anderson (1950 - ) received the basis of his education from the University of Science and Philosophy, Swannanoa, Waynesboro, Virginia. He resides in the transcendental/romantic tradition, that vein of spiritual creativity of the philosopher and poet. His quest has been to define and express an eternal romantic reality from which a man and a woman could together stand in their difference and create a living universe of procreative love. Mr. Anderson began these writings in 1971. The first writings were published in 1985. On a personal note, when Mr. Anderson was asked to describe the writings and what he felt their message was he responded, "Spiritual procreation. Mankind has yet to distinguish the two sexes on the spiritual level. In this failure lies the root of our problems and why we cannot yet touch the eternal together. The message of man and woman balance brings each of us together in love with our eternal other half right now." keywords: Theology, Creative Balance, God, Trinity, Father And Mother, Holy Spirit, Procreative Love...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can we ever find heaven on earth? We strive and seek, why do our visions fail us so? Could it be that the premises we hold, deep within ourselves, preclude the manifestation of the proclaimed vision? This work, The Community of Man and Woman, details a vsion and the premises that hold it securely in place. "We are sexual beings residing within a sexual universe. And thus lies our spirituality, our mentality, and our physicality. The creative balance between male and female is as spiritual, mental, and physical as things can get. There isn't anything more real or immediate than that one creative touch between a man and a woman. There isn't any greater love than the love from a man to a woman and from a woman to a man. All that is originates from this sexual love." The Community of Man and Woman Author Bio: Christopher Alan Anderson (1950 - ) received the basis of his education from the University of Science and Philosophy, Swannanoa, Waynesboro, Virginia.

Download or read book Anthropology written by Susan A. Ross and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the wisdom and teaching experience of highly respected theologians, the Engaging Theology series builds a firm foundation for graduate study and other ministry formation programs. Each of the six volumes--Scripture, Jesus, God, Discipleship, Anthropology, and Church--is concerned with retrieving, carefully evaluating, and constructively interpreting the Christian tradition. Comprehensive in scope and accessibly written, these volumes, used together or independently, will stimulate rich theological reflection and discussion. More important, the series will create and sustain the passion of the next generation of theologians and church leaders. What does it mean to be human in the twenty-first century? Susan Ross explores this question through the lens of human desires: for God, freedom, knowledge, love, and pleasure, but also for power, consumer goods, self-gratification, and money. Beginning with biblical narratives of human desires, she goes on to consider how ancient, medieval, and modern thinkers have wrestled with the various ways that human beings have sought fulfillment in the world and in God. The twenty-first century brings new questions and continuing challenges: In a world of increasing complexity and fragmentation, can we still talk about the self? How have feminism and new thinking about sexuality changed the ways we think about ourselves? How do we maintain our humanity in the face of monstrous human evil? What do the findings of science say about our uniqueness as human beings? Anthropology: Seeking Light and Beauty offers a path through the many conflicting views of humanity, suggesting a fuller way of living as we try to follow the example of Jesus.
Download or read book Perceptions of Being Creative written by Nancy Roy and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Project Demonstrating Excellence is a qualitative research project using poetic metaphors and a feminist approach to weave together intricate questions and ponderings about the creative process. the project is a quest to understand the complexity of the creative process first through various publications, and later through the thoughts and comments from eleven women. the heuristic model outlined by Moustakas (Heuristic Research: Design, Methodology, and Applications, 1990) serves as a backdrop and comparison with the steps of the creative process, thus incorporating the words and voice of the author. the project focuses on the creative spirit of women without children and explores this question in interviews with a small population of ordinary, everyday women in northern New England. Together, these women explore the meaning of creativity, beyond the traditional definition of artist. They offer their unique perceptions about a complex subject, sometimes illuminating the topic and other times muddying the already murky waters. They share their experiences of creativity, both with personal experiences and stories from the world of work. These women tell their stories of support and encouragement as well as disappointment and pain as they explore their own consciousness and inner awareness. During the journey a distinctive link is established between creativity and spirituality, although few of the women can articulate the connection. Even though no common denominators or specific patterns are uncovered, a sincere desire to understand and make meaning of creativity is clearly evident. Readers will not find techniques or how-tos for creative expression. What they will find is awareness and attention to questions surrounding creative expression. Although this project focuses on women, and specifically women without children, creativity and the ability to process thoughts and ideas transcend gender, age, education, and biology. What begins as a quest to investigate possible connections between creativity and women without children, evolves into a journey of the heart to understand and nurture the creative muse.

Download or read book Conversations on Creative Process Methods Research and Practice written by Christina Reading and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversations on Creative Process, Methods, Research and Practice provides unique insights into the experiences of eight established creative practitioners who use their creative process in a professional and personal context. Each of them details their creative processes and how being creative has helped them to achieve a fulfilling work/life balance. Interviewees discuss how their creativity has helped them to overcome challenges or difficulties they have faced in their lives including grief, health issues, prejudice, divorce, maternity and creative blocks. This book uses original material – research and interviews – to explore the nature of the creative process from the perspective of understanding the activities, thoughts and feelings that shape an individual artist’s creative practice and how this might inform a wider collective understanding of creativity and how it can help us to live well. The book suggests that individual creative practice is a means of coming to know the self and your place in the world a little better and perhaps a little differently. This innovative book is suitable for students, scholars and practitioners using creative and arts-based research and methods in a wide range of disciplines and subjects including the social sciences, education, creative writing and communication and media studies.
