Book Description
More than one million people from all walks of life have been uplifted and entertained by Heaven Bound, the folk drama that follows, through song and verse, the struggles between Satan and a band of pilgrims on their way down the path of glory that leads to the golden gates. Staged annually and without interruption for more than seventy years at Big Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Atlanta, Heaven Bound is perhaps the longest running black theater production. Here, a lifelong member of Big Bethel with many close ties to Heaven Bound recounts its lively history and conveys the enduring power and appeal of an Atlanta tradition that is as much a part of the city as Coca-Cola or Gone with the Wind.

Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Heaven Bound? is two books in one. First, it is a story of a middle-aged man who commits a minor offence, and is sentenced to serving a certain amount of community service hours reading to seniors in a retirement home who have trouble seeing. At the home, he strikes up a friendship with a female senior. As the story progresses, they bond, and she becomes the mother he never had, and he becomes the son she always wanted. As their relationship grows, a void in each of their lives is filled. By the end of the story, will we find one alive and one deceased, or perhaps both deceased, and those left behind discussing the reasons why they believe they are heaven bound. You'll find out when you get to the end of the book. Secondly, Heaven Bound? contains twenty-one short stories that the gentleman in the story reads to his female senior when he comes to visit. These stories will appeal to young adults and seniors alike. The types of stories are: drama, suspense, mystery, and lots of humor. The two main characters discuss the stories after each reading, and find out that they are not just entertaining, but there are lessons to be learned that will help them (and us) become better living people. These short stories will appeal to those who don't like long stories, and have trouble keeping track of the plot, and all the characters in it.

Sharing Jesus without Freaking Out

Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
You were born for this. God hardwired you—yes, you—for this. I'm talking about sharing Jesus with others. What if I told you evangelism is less about delivering a polished presentation and more about having a real conversation? What if I told you that God has created you to bring glory to himself by sharing Jesus with others, and that you don’t need years of training to obey what he already made you to do? God created you for his glory to advance his gospel with the gifts, talents, and opportunities he gave you. You live at this time in history for a purpose bigger than yourself. In these pages you will read how to connect the gospel story with your story, and how to talk about that story in normal conversations with people you know. No gimmicks. Nothing clever. No need to freak out. Just you, Jesus, and others—in conversations that matter.

Dust Bound for Heaven
Author: Reinhard Hütter
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 1467436720
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 461
Book Description
In Dust Bound for Heaven Reinhard Hütter shows how Thomas Aquinas's view of the human being as dust bound for heaven weaves together elements of two questions without fusion or reduction. Does humanity still have an insatiable thirst for God that sends each person on an irrepressible religious quest that only the vision of God can quench? Or must the human being, living after the fall, become a "new creation" in order to be readied for heaven? Hütter also applies Thomas's anthropology to a host of pressing contemporary concerns, including the modern crisis of faith and reason, political theology, the relationship between divine grace and human freedom, and many more. The concluding chapter explores the Christological center of Thomas's theology.
