Download or read book Journey in the Spirit written by Arthur Winarczyk and published by Arthur Winarczyk. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new look at understanding mysteries of the Hebrew God. Understanding that does not rely on miracles or virgin birth. The author alleges only 'in the spirit', an altered state of perception, can the Bible (and Koran, but true of some Buddhist works) be understood properly and made sense of. Most of the Old Testament is a history of a people. Few parts are from the spirit. Explanations about most mysteries in the Bible and the 'keys to the kingdom of heaven'. This book will expand your scope in appreciating the Hebrew God. Life in the Spirit is a mystery of old, an experience of the Hebrew God direct. Not an easy thing. Not for everyone. This book is not fiction but the author's opinions may be part of the book. Many Christian churches claim 'God is the Father, and Son, and Holy Spirit'. But in the New Testament it is written 'The Father is greater than I'. If the early church understood the mystery of the Hebrews, there would not have been a Spanish Inquisition or the Crusades. Saint Paul, who some historians don't accept as a Christian, tried to teach his congregations not to think in a carnal way about the Hebrew God. That is very hard for people to do, and even today it is something most religions can't do. Take 'Do not commit adultery'. It actually refers to worship of idols. That's why it is essential not to think in a carnal way about the gospels. Take the story of Mary Magdalene. Nothing to do with Mary being a sex-worker. It is related to the practice that emerged at the time of Jesus when Biblical Laws replaced the Laws of Moses and the spiritual way of life.

Download or read book MTV and Teen Pregnancy written by Letizia Guglielmo and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2009, 16 and Pregnant premiered on MTV, closely followed by the spinoffs Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2. Because of their controversial portrayals of teenage mothers, the shows have received ongoing media attention. While some argue that the programs could play a factor in reducing the number of teen pregnancies, others claim the shows exploit young women and glamorize their situations. Among these debates, there have been surprisingly few in-depth discourses that discuss the roles such shows have on teenage audiences. In MTV and Teen Pregnancy: Critical Essays on 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom, contributors from a variety of backgrounds and expertise offer potent essays about these programs. Divided into four parts, the book tackles the controversial representations of teen pregnancy from various disciplines. Part I explores gendered social norms and the shows’ roles as either educational resources or idealized depictions of teenage motherhood. Part II prompts readers to consider the intersections of race, class, gender, and the social and cultural power structures often glossed over in these programs. Part III focuses on teenage fathers, the portrayal of masculinity, and “good” vs. “bad” parents. Part IV draws from TVs representations of reality to discuss the impact of these shows on the viewing audience. This section includes a narrative from a teen mother who argues that the shows do not accurately reflect the life she leads. As the debates about 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom continue, this collection provides a valuable critical discourse to be used both inside and outside the classroom. Those engaged in courses on gender and women’s studies, as well as media studies, social work, and family and childhood development, will find MTV and Teen Pregnancy especially insightful—as will those involved in community outreach programs, not to mention teens and young mothers themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being a parent in the modern world is tough. We are often overwhelmed with fear about damaging our children, guilt about our imperfections, and confusion about our role. Harriet Connor knows these feelings well. But hers is not just another parenting book full of "shoulds and shouldn'ts" to make you feel worse. Rather, she invites you to step back and consider the bigger picture: What is the purpose of life and parenthood? What are our human limitations? How can we cope with our guilt and fear? What are our family's values and how do we pass them on? What is our family's structure and place within the wider community? When she was desperate for answers, Harriet Connor turned to the ancient wisdom of her ancestors--the Bible. She went looking for little pieces of grandmotherly advice, but what she found was a grand vision--a big picture--that made sense of both life and parenthood. Whether you are new to the Bible or have read it before, you will not regret taking time to reflect on its message, which has given comfort and guidance to generations of parents just like you.

Download or read book The Good Shufu written by Tracy Slater and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brave, wry, irresistible journey of a fiercely independent American woman who finds everything she ever wanted in the most unexpected place. Shufu: in Japanese it means “housewife,” and it’s the last thing Tracy Slater ever thought she’d call herself. A writer and academic, Tracy carefully constructed a life she loved in her hometown of Boston. But everything is upended when she falls head over heels for the most unlikely mate: a Japanese salary-man based in Osaka, who barely speaks her language. Deciding to give fate a chance, Tracy builds a life and marriage in Japan, a country both fascinating and profoundly alienating, where she can read neither the language nor the simplest social cues. There, she finds herself dependent on her husband to order her food, answer the phone, and give her money. When she begins to learn Japanese, she discovers the language is inextricably connected with nuanced cultural dynamics that would take a lifetime to absorb. Finally, when Tracy longs for a child, she ends up trying to grow her family with a Petri dish and an army of doctors with whom she can barely communicate. And yet, despite the challenges, Tracy is sustained by her husband’s quiet love, and being with him feels more like “home” than anything ever has. Steadily and surely, she fills her life in Japan with meaningful connections, a loving marriage, and wonder at her adopted country, a place that will never feel natural or easy, but which provides endless opportunities for growth, insight, and sometimes humor. A memoir of travel and romance, The Good Shufu is a celebration of the life least expected: messy, overwhelming, and deeply enriching in its complications.

But how could he promise Natalie forever while whispering sweet, loving lies?
