Praise for Signs and Wonders Amy-Jill Levine has the rare and wonderful gift of being able to offer solid exegetical work to readers with or without formal theological training as if she is sitting in your living room sharing a cup of tea. Throughout this book she calls us to the interpretive work, reminding us that the big question is not "did this happen?" but "what does it mean?" and ultimately "so what?" How can these old miracle stories speak good news to our lives in this time and place and invite our own healing and transformation along the way? – Rev. Dr. Richard Simpson, Canon to the Ordinary (Assistant to the Bishop), Episcopal Diocese of Western Massachusetts Amy-Jill Levine is herself a sign and wonder, a sign that reading the New Testament through Jewish eyes is not just essential but revelatory, and a wonder, as she always writes with verve, wisdom, humor and rich insight. Her latest is hardly an exception, an accessible, fascinating book we welcome eagerly. – James Howell, Senior Pastor, Myers Park United Methodist Church, Charlotte, North Carolina With brilliant insight and trademark wit, Dr. Amy-Jill Levine reveals wondrous details of the most prominent miracles in the gospels. We become more than readers of these stories; we discover how to be recipients and participants in the ongoing, miraculous work of God. – Magrey R. deVega, Senior Pastor of Hyde Park United Methodist Church in Tampa, Florida, and author of The Bible Year: A Journey through Scripture in 365 Days What a rich and accessible resource for anyone who wants to grow their understanding of the Gospels and the claims they make about Jesus! AJ Levine teaches us how to learn from the miracle stories, marvel at them, worry about them, and respond to them in our own lives. – Matthew L. Skinner, Professor of New Testament, Luther Seminary Making space for the believer and skeptic alike, Levine masterfully connects the miracles of the God of Israel with the miracles of Jesus. From friends who clear the way, to a father who pleads for his daughter, to sisters who stand resolute, Levine invites the reader to cherish the helpers and the healed as much as we cherish the healer. Levine's willingness to authentically share portions of her own story reminds the reader of the ways the miraculous breaks into our own lives. –Rev. Dawn Taylor-Storm, Director of Connectional Ministry, Eastern Pennsylvania Conference, The United Methodist Church Amy-Jill Levine engages the miracles of Jesus with scholarly acumen and signature wit. Christians who have been confused by these stories will find new clarity in her comprehensive context, including corrective understandings of Judaism. Those who have been intimidated by these texts will be encouraged by her candor. Those who have been inspired by Jesus’ miracles will find even deeper dimensions of meaning in the practical, pastoral, theological, and literary levels she opens and the provocative issues raised, from food insecurity to gender assumptions. Levine presses the essential “so what?” question and challenges us to be changed by these stories – and to be amazed. – The Rev. Deborah A. Block, D.Min. Pastor, Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Milwaukee

Download or read book Life Is a Miracle written by Wendell Berry and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2003-06-19 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[A] scathing assessment . . . Berry shows that Wilson's much–celebrated, controversial pleas in Consilience to unify all branches of knowledge is nothing more than a fatuous subordination of religion, art, and everything else that is good to science . . . Berry is one of the most perceptive critics of American society writing today.” —The Washington Post “I am tempted to say he understands [Consilience] better than Wilson himself . . . A new emancipation proclamation in which he speaks again and again about how to defy the tyranny of scientific materialism.”—The Christian Science Monitor In Life Is a Miracle, the devotion of science to the quantitative and reductionist world is measured against the mysterious, qualitative suggestions of religion and art. Berry sees life as the collision of these separate forces, but without all three in the mix we are left at sea in the world.

The divine feminine is re-emerging and leading the way to co-create personal and collective abundance, health, well-being and unlimited possibilities. Mary is the pattern for miracles.

Download or read book The Miracle Minute written by Dick Warn and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book publishers claim that 90 percent of the books purchased are purchased by less than three percent of the people. What does that mean? It means that you-if you purchased this book or if you received this as a gift-are either in the top three percent, or thinking about getting there. The greatest material gift anyone can give themselves, or anyone else, is a life-enhancing book. The wisest thoughts ever thought, the most powerful ways to deal with problems, and the universal truths enabling peace of mind appear in print. It is not the words that make a difference, but the meaning behind the words. If you are searching for more practical meanings, this book is filled with new views. This book began as 52 scripts for Dick Warn's The Miracle Minute radio spots that Bob Ridzak and Bill Georgi tested on the air in 2004 and 2005. (Clear Channel Radio Stations-Riverside, California.) Each Miracle Minute can be read in less than 60 seconds and each should be followed by thoughts and questions like: What did Dick Warn mean? What does this mean to me? And what, if anything, should I, or we, do differently? In the game of life, continual change is the name of the game because we are either growing or dying. I've done both and growing is better. Will every Miracle Minute be a perfect fit for you? Hardly! Some will miss the mark, others will spark awesome thought and a few will alter your life forever. One old truth, newly understood, is worth far more than the price of any book. Having spent most of my life trying to help others gain valuable insights, I have discovered that simple thought pieces like The Miracle Minute work much better than talking heads and video. And, in training sessions, The Miracle Minutes allow training facilitators to be highly effective, without preparation. First, a training facilitator has each participant read the same Miracle Minute before they come to the meeting. Then, during a meeting, the facilitator draws the best out of others. Through a process of reading, thinking about what they read, brainstorming and sharing information, the participants become their own teachers-learning far more than they would in any other way. The hardest part for facilitators is to remain silent and encourage participants to speak. Whether we like it or not, we are all riding together on Space Ship Earth. There are not two planet Earths. Nor is there any way to change planets. The very best we can do is build a better world from the inside out. And we can, if we are willing, be a miracle worker in the lives of others. When we help someone-including ourselves-to see deep-seated beliefs in brand new light, miracles do occur. Our thinker is our Creator. When time allows, get comfortable, throw on your thinking cap, and dive in to Miracle Minute One. Discover for yourself what these 52 Miracle Minutes can do for you and others with whom you share your world. Miracles occur the instant light breaks through and we gain a new view. What readers are saying: "I was a creature of comfort; I had been with the same company for 14 years. It 'felt safe.' When approached by another company, I didn't know what to do and Dick Warn asked: 'What are you afraid of-failure?' He hit the nail on the head. I was afraid. But that was then and now is now. As a result of Dick's practical wisdom, I have learned to step outside of my comfort zone. I have been inspired to excel as an employee, wife, mother, mentor and friend. Dick Warn occupies a very special place in my heart." Antoinette (Toni) Price Nestle Waters North America Inc. The book is new, yet Miracle Minutes (in the current form) have been going out weekly to over 300 people directly for over two years. This weekly process - in slightly different form - began two weeks before 9/11. As a result of those original emails, two radio stations in Southern California are broadcasting
Download or read book The Making of a Miracle written by Mike Eruzione and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the fortieth anniversary of the historic "Miracle on Ice," Mike Eruzione—the captain of the 1980 U.S Men’s Olympic Hockey Team, who scored the winning goal—recounts his amazing career on ice, the legendary upset against the Soviets, and winning the gold medal. It is the greatest American underdog sports story ever told: how a team of college kids and unsigned amateurs, under the tutelage of legendary coach—and legendary taskmaster—Herb Brooks, beat the elite Soviet hockey team on their way to winning the gold medal at the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics. No one believed the scrappy Americans had a real shot at winning. Despite being undefeated, the U.S.—the youngest team in the competition—were facing off against the four-time defending gold medalist Russians. But the Americans’ irrepressible optimism, skill, and fearless attitude helped them outplay the seasoned Soviet team and deliver their iconic win. As captain, Mike Eruzione led his team on the ice on that Friday, February 22, 1980. But beating the U.S.S.R was only one of the numerous challenges Mike has faced in his life. In this inspiring memoir, he recounts the obstacles he has overcome, from his blue-collar upbringing in Winthrop, Massachusetts, to his battle to make the Boston University squad; his challenges in the minor leagues and international tournaments to his selection to the U.S. team and their run for gold. He also talks about the aftermath of that stupendous win that inspired and united the nation at a time of crisis in its history. Eruzione has lived a hockey life full of unexpected twists and surprising turns. Al Michaels’ famous call in 1980—"do you believe in miracles? YES!"—could have been about Mike himself. Filled with vivid portraits—from his hard-working, irrepressible father to the irascible Herb Brooks to the Russian hall of famers Tretiak, Kharlamov, Makarov, and Fetisov—this lively, fascinating look back is destined to become a sports classic and is a must for hockey fans, especially those who witnessed that miraculous day.
