Download or read book We Are the Seven written by Synita Haskins-Johnson and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are Christians different than the people in the Bible? What is one of the biggest challenges the body of Christ is experiencing today? In We Are the Seven, Johnson explores the idea of how Christians today have common characteristics with people of the Bible. Many current issues are flooding the body of Christ. In modern times, destructive isms and schisms are running rampant in the body of Christ. In the body of Christ, lack of unity has become a growing trend. We have separated ourselves into special sects. Denominations can cause separation among believers. Various issues divide us within each denomination. Those problems also extend to all individual churches within the denominations. However, the issues within the church are not new. We Are the Seven is a comparative look of today's church versus the first churches. There are many books and sermons based on the seven churches. Those books and sermons often point out the flaws of the body of Christ. This book will challenge you to look at the redemption plan that God has for the body of Christ. When we look at the seven churches Jesus chose to highlight in Revelation, we can see that God already knew of the troubles that the body of Christ would have to face today. Through the seven churches, we can learn unity among the body of Christ. We can learn how to live as a believer. We can learn of God's grace, mercy, and redeeming plan for man. 1

Download or read book Stigma written by Gerhard Falk and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it in human nature that leads us to label some as insiders and stigmatize others as outsiders?Sociologist Gerhard Falk examines the social psychology that motivates this process of exclusion, focusing on the outcasts in contemporary American society and comparing current experience with examples from the past. Referring to the work of Emile Durkheim and Erving Goffman, Falk reviews the whole range of stigmatized people from the mentally ill to ordinary people with unpopular occupations, like undertakers and trash collectors. Amid the wide diversity of stigmatized persons, he finds two basic types of outsiders: the "existential" and the "achieved." The first group comprises those who are stigmatized because of their very existence, regardless of their specific actions: the mentally handicapped, for example. The second group describes those whose actions or life conditions have resulted in stigma: from high achievers (often subject to resentment) to criminals. Falk also looks at the ways in which writers past and present have dramatized stigmatized characters in literature.This fascinating overview of a long-standing and widespread social problem will be of interest to all those concerned about creating a more fair-minded society.

Book excerpt: This new edition of this classic text from one of the major figures of world sociology includes an introduction published in English for the first time.
