Most of all, this is a story driven by an unquenchable thirst for libertas.

Download or read book The Philosophical Salon written by Patricia Vieira and published by Saint Philip Street Press. This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the interpretative lens of today's leading thinkers, The Philosophical Salon illuminates the persistent intellectual queries and the most disquieting concerns of our actuality. Across its three main divisions-Speculations, Reflections, and Interventions-the volume constructs a complex mirror, in which our age might be able to recognize itself with all its imperfections, shadowy spots, even threatening abysses and latent promises. On the cutting edge of philosophy, political and literary theory, and aesthetics, this book courageously tackles a wide array of topics, including climate change, the role of technology, reproductive rights, the problem of refugees, the task of the university, political extremism, embodiment, utopia, food ethics, and sexual identity. It is an enduring record of an ongoing conversation, as well as a building block for any attempt to make sense of our world's multifaceted realities.

Download or read book Reading Ray S Anderson written by Christian D. Kettler and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is theology often divorced from ministry? Why is ministry left bereft of a robust theology? Ray S. Anderson, a professor of Fuller Theological Seminary for over thirty years, has left a legacy of provocative reflections on these questions. In this book, Kettler provides a sure guide to major themes in the work of one of the most creative theological minds to have sought to integrate theology and ministry. Ray Anderson's radical incarnational theology of the "kenotic community" provides a new basis for a broader, risk-taking ecclesiology. He also brings theological anthropology to the front of the agenda, and therefore into ministry to actual hurting human persons. Each chapter ends with a case study from an actual life situation, to "test out" and work through the implications of Anderson's theology.

Download or read book McRage written by Steven Luciw and published by Steven Luciw. This book was released on 2014-02-18 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After hijacking a jet to stop the spread of a deadly plague, LAPD Detective Todd McRage has been transferred to the most peaceful precinct in the city, Bel Air. Bored to tears and worried that he's losing his skill at gunplay, McRage soon learns that the suburbs aren't quite what they seem. From the moonshine that's brewed in the basement to the obscene amount of recreational drug use in the halls, Bel Air Precinct One is hiding secrets that might reach all the way to the sadistic and cruel Commissioner Cyrus Black. So when McRage gets a new partner and it’s the Commissioner’s niece, he assumes the worst. Add to that a reporter asking difficult questions, a serial killer wandering the streets, and a possible Nazi running the station, and you’ve got the recipe for a very bad week. In a corrupt and dysfunctional police department where following orders might mean breaking the law, Todd McRage might be the only one brave enough to search for the truth, even if the evidence points to a mysterious criminal organization with ties to the Japanese Yakuza, the Chinese Triad, and a group of warriors who might just be immortal. To solve the case McRage might have to do the unthinkable and play the part of a villain, risking his life to become the most wanted man in Los Angeles. McRage is a story of intense action, memorable characters, intriguing plot twists, and bureaucratic insanity. At times hilarious and subversive, it’s the tale of one man’s quest for survival in a world of violence, conspiracy, and a threat so powerful it may change the face of America forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life contains a rhythm when we see it from beginning to end. Our personal existence is not a series of individual episodes taking place as 'points in time.' Rather, life itself bears us along in a common pilgrimage. At any given time, we are part of a community where birth and death, joy and sorrow, pain and pleasure, as well as sowing and harvesting are taking place. This communal sharing of life replicates all the 'seasons of life.' For each time in our lives there is a corresponding season in the life of the human family. We empower faith by practicing hope every day of our lives.

Book excerpt: This discounted ebundle of The Psalms of Isaak series includes: Lamentation, Canticle, Antiphon, and Requiem “Ken Scholes creates vivid characters, a world thick with detail, and wonders we've never seen before.” —Orson Scott Card The Psalms of Isaak series take place on an Earth so far in the distant future that our time is not even a memory; a world where magick is commonplace and great areas of the planet are impassable wastes. But human nature hasn't changed through the ages: War and faith and love still move princes and nations. Soon all the Kingdoms of the Named Lands will be at each others' throats, as alliances are challenged and hidden plots are uncovered. Lamentation — An ancient weapon has completely destroyed the city of Windwir. From many miles away, Rudolfo, Lord of the Nine Forest Houses, sees the horrifying column of smoke rising. He knows that war is coming to the Named Lands. Canticle — As the feast honoring General Rudolfo’s first-born son begins, the doors of the hall fly open and invisible assassins attack. All of Rudolfo's noble guests are slain, including Hanric, the Marsh Queen's Shadow. And on the Keeper's Gate, a strange figure appears, with a message for Petronus, the Hidden Pope. Antiphon — The ancient past is not dead. The hand of the Wizard Kings still reaches out to challenge the Androfrancine Order, to control the magick and technology that they sought to understand and claim for their own. Requiem — Who is the Crimson Empress, and what does her conquest of the Named Lands really mean? Who holds the keys to the Moon Wizard's Tower? Hidden truths reveal even deeper truths, and nothing is as it seemed to be. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
