Book Reflections at Journey   s End

Download or read book Reflections at Journey s End written by York County Bar Association and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling series of insightful biographical sketches of the men and women of the York County Bar commencing eleven years before the start of the Civil War as recounted by contemporaries and colleagues. Candid, sincere, honest, and on occasion with a touch of comic relief, these memorial minutes are tributes to those who have made their rendezvous with mortality. Found within these volumes is the venerable Jeremiah S. Black who walked the corridors of national recognition during the Civil War era; the urbane and brilliant Herbert B. Cohen who wielded substantial political power throughout the commonwealth and rose to become an associate justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court; and the charismatic Harvey Gross whose superb advocacy in the third Hex trial and subsequent twenty-year tenure on the York County Orphans’ Court placed him in the forefront of the princes of Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence. This “callout” of the giants in no way diminishes the significance, commitment, and integrity of the many other remarkable individuals who came after and counseled and inspired others to live honestly, to exercise compassion, and to act with prudence and diligence, and above all else made their contribution to the vast and diverse panorama of our humanity. Not a typical memoir or story, these memorial minutes constitute the defining epic of the York County Bar. More than history, more than recitals of character and personality, and more than delightful encounters and more somber content, they are about individuals remembered for the richness and power of their hopes, achievements, and commitments to the timeless values of the life of the law.

Book Wide Open Spaces

    Book Details:
  • Author : Carol Henderson
  • Publisher : John Hunt Publishing
  • Release : 2011-07-16
  • ISBN : 184694936X
  • Pages : 176 pages

Download or read book Wide Open Spaces written by Carol Henderson and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-16 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does God call us? The answers are as different as we are. Sometimes God summons us through the Church and sometimes in spite of the Church. In the depths of loss and confusion God speaks to us, beckoning us to follow an unexplored path. While we are heading in one direction, God surprises us with an undeniable invitation to go another way. Wide Open Spaces includes essays by women who have experienced and responded to God's call in all of these ways. The ministers and Christian educators whose stories fill this book testify to God's grace in the midst of their lives as single people in family-centered contexts, as women whose callings also include parenthood and marriage, and as those who the Church refuses to fully accept. Discrimination, harassment and homophobia pierce the narratives in this book. Yet this is not a book about defeat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the dawn of democracy in South Africa in 1994, the struggle of the indigenous Griqua people for land has gained new momentum. Having lost most of their ancestral land in the 19th century due to colonialism, the Griqua people are now using new legal opportunities to reclaim land. On their re-obtained land, the Griqua dwell, farm, celebrate indigenous festivals, and create cultural villages for tourists. In doing so, they are currently contributing to the making of 'Ethnicity, Inc.', the double process of commodification of culture and creation of ethnic businesses.

Book Hope That Heals

Download or read book Hope That Heals written by Betty Jane Clem and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hope That Heals: Reflections on a Life Journey is the author’s first published work. After six decades of writing in diaries and journals, Ms. Clem has selected a group of poems that she extracted from those records. The collection includes observations from eight aspects of life, which, together, focus on the place of hope in human health and healing. Vacations spent near the oceans, bird watching in various landscapes and waterscapes, living with two beagles, probing for answers to personal questions and challenges, learning to relate to people, studying and making music, and wrestling with a lifelong call to serve God in word and deed are among the circumstances from which the author’s poems arise. This wide range of thought covers years when Ms. Clem found verbal expression more difficult than writing. After developing verbal communication skills, the later work evolved into writing at a new level. The development of freedom in maturing thought and speech gave rise to deeper and more complex writing. She has long dreamed of sharing her observations and discoveries, in the hope that they will be helpful to others, perhaps even encouraging them to share their own.
