Download or read book Sects Love and Rock Roll written by Joel Heng Hartse and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If this book moves, I hope it moves in the way pop songs do. There will be a lot of talk about songs, but inasmuch as this is a book about listening to music, it's also about how listening to music makes us who we are, or at least about how it makes me who I am, and so it is an exploration, an idiosyncratic and opinionated and particular one, of a self shaped by the oddly intersecting forces of the American evangelical Protestant church and the American popular music scene. I don't mean for that to sound hoity-toity--if this were fifteen years ago, I would say that this book was about Christian music, and I would know exactly what I meant. My purpose now is not only to talk about "Christian music." I am not here to explicate Christian music, to explain why it exists and whether it is any good. Instead, think of what you're about to read as like an iPod playlist, a collection of essays and thoughts on listening to music and having faith and how they have made me, and a lot of people like me, and maybe you. Also, there will be some jokes about Stryper."

Download or read book Short Stories and Novellas written by Ismael Casiano Jr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Short Stories and Novellas" is an experiment in form and structure that seeks to glean beauty and continuity out of the rhythms inherent in the patterns of our unique and individual experiences and methods of finding understanding in what we read. The short stories and novellas could be the lives of the lovers that the distinctive voice of what could be a narrator-- or not-- patterns into songlike rhythms or they could represent a hint as to how we are to understand this work of fiction and ultimately the varying experiences composing our own lives. Whether "Short Stories and Novellas" is Fiction, Memoir, Philosophy, or Religion seems to matter less than that it is a poetic effort. And as such we are at a point where we can either entirely dismiss such efforts at turning our worlds upside down or we can submit to the quest put forward of letting beauty finally speak for itself in the midst of chaos.

Download or read book Longing to Tell written by Tricia Rose and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2004-04-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sexual Lives of Black Women, In Their Own Words In a culture driven by sexual and racial imagery, very few honest conversations about race, gender, and sexuality actually take place. In their absence, commonly held perceptions of black women as teenage mothers, welfare recipients, mammies, or exotic sexual playthings remain unchanged. For fear that telling their stories will fulfill society's implicit expectations about their sexuality, most black women have retreated into silence. Tricia Rose seeks to break this silence and jump-start a dialogue by presenting, for the first time, the sexual testimonies of black women. Spanning a broad range of ages, levels of education, and socioeconomic backgrounds, twenty women, in their own words, talk with startling honesty about sex, love, family, relationships, and intimacy. Their stories dispel prevailing myths and provide revealing insights into how black women navigate the complex terrain of sexuality. Nuanced, rich, and powerful, Longing to Tell will be required reading for anyone interested in issues of race and gender.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lydia Casselberry’s world comes undone when she discovers that her husband of almost forty years is having an affair. Needing time to grieve and to decide whether to continue the marriage, she decides to flee from her Tampa home to a place she hasn’t been in decades – her family’s lodge in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. She tells no one where she is going, but writes two notes saying she needs to be alone. One is to her best friend; the other her husband will find when he returns from another of his continual business trips. Healing begins in the solitude of nature and a place where she can rediscover herself. Memories of her youth and marriage flood back, but so do more questions. What she uncovers reveals that her husband’s betrayal is far deeper, and far more sordid, than she ever could have imagined. Her grief then turns to cold rage – and revenge that undoes his world.
