Book Description
Can you imagine a world where there is no sickness, no pain, no hospitals, no doctors, no medicine required? A new level of understanding, awareness, and evolution for mankind is underway, and the collective consciousness of this planet is rising into a higher vibration of collective awareness. This is not the end but just the beginning of many fantastic things that we are going to see and experience, and one of these transformations is that man will move beyond sickness. We will begin to access our previously hidden innate abilities, learning new ways of communicating with each other. Through spending more than thirty years practicing meditation and working as a professional hypnotherapist in Time Line Past and Future Regression Therapy, I have been able to raise my conscious awareness to higher levels and receive glimpses ahead of time of what is in store for humankind, and I can tell you that what lies ahead for us is very exciting. This is a book of tools for assisting people who would like to raise their vibration-frequency and consciousness to higher levels so that they can begin to align with the new consciousness now available to us and move into new levels of awareness, which will benefit health, wealth, relationships, and so much more. Author Review Aldo, I truly enjoyed reading your book, which was inspiring and opened my mind to consider many different angles towards life. I have also applied some of the tools you suggested in this book to my own business, and it has helped me improve the efficiency and revenue of my business. Thank you for sharing this important, eye-opening knowledge and wisdom with us. Good luck with it . . . Julian Ray Author of Real Man

Moving Beyond Individualism in Pastoral Care and Counseling
Author: Barbara J McClure
Publisher: Lutterworth Press
ISBN: 0718842995
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
Despite astute critiques and available resources for alternative modes of thinking and practicing, individualism continues to be a dominating and constraining ideology in the field of pastoral psychotherapy and counseling. Philip Rieff was one of the first to highlight the negative implications of individualism in psychotherapeutic theories and practices. As heirs and often enthusiasts of the Freudian tradition of which Rieff and others are critical, pastoral theologians have felt the sting of his charge, and yet the empirical research that McClure presents shows that pastoral-counseling practitioners resist change. Their attempts to overcome an individualistic perspective have been limited and ineffective because individualism is embeddedin the field's dominant theological and theoretical resources, practices, and organizational arrangements. Only a radical reappraisal of these will make possible pastoral counseling practices in a post-individualistic mode. McClure proposes several critical transformations: broadening and deepening the operative theologies used to guide the healing practice, expanding the role of the pastoral counselor, reimagining the operative anthropology, reclaiming sin and judgment, nuancing the particularagainst the individual, rethinking the ideal outcome of the practices, and reimagining the organizational structures that support the practices. Only this level of revisioning will enable this ministry of the church to move beyond its individualistic limitations and offer healing in more complex, effective, and socially adequate ways.

Moving Beyond Symbol and Myth
Author: Anne Moore
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9780820486611
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
For hundreds of years, scholars have debated the meaning of Jesus' central theological term, the 'kingdom of God'. Most of the argument has focused on its assumed eschatological connotations and Jesus' adherence or deviation from these ideas. Within the North American context, the debate is dominated by the work of Norman Perrin, whose classification of the kingdom of God as a myth-evoking symbol remains one of the fundamental assumptions of scholarship. According to Perrin, Jesus' understanding of the kingdom of God is founded upon the myth of God acting as king on behalf of Israel as described in the Hebrew Bible. Moving Beyond Symbol and Myth challenges Perrin's classification, and advocates the reclassification of the kingdom of God as metaphor. Drawing upon insights from the cognitive theory of metaphor, this study examines all the occurrences of the 'God is king' metaphor within the literary context of the Hebrew Bible. Based on this review, it is proposed that the 'God is king' metaphor functions as a true metaphor with a range of expressions and meanings. It is employed within a variety of texts and conveys images of God as the covenantal sovereign of Israel; God as the eternal suzerain of the world, and God as the king of the disadvantaged. The interaction of the semantic fields of divinity and human kingship evoke a range of metaphoric expressions that are utilized throughout the history of the Hebrew Bible in response to differing socio-historical contexts and within a range of rhetorical strategies. It is this diversity inherent in the 'God is king' metaphor that is the foundation for the diversified expressions of the kingdom of God associated with the historical Jesus and early Christianity.

The Smallpox Report
Author: Fuson Wang
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487546602
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
After the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccination has become synonymous with an opaque biopower that legislates compulsory immunization at a distance. Contemporary illness narratives have become outlets for distrust, misinformation, reckless denialism, and selfish noncompliance. In The Smallpox Report, Fuson Wang rewinds this contemporary impasse between physician and patient back to the Romantic-era origins of vaccination. The book offers a literary-historical account of smallpox vaccination, contending that the disease’s eventual eradication in 1980 was as much a triumph of the literary imagination as it was an achievement of medical Enlightenment science. Wang traces our modern pandemic-era crisis of vaccine hesitancy back to Edward Jenner’s publication of his treatise on vaccination in 1798, the first rumblings of an anti-vaccination movement, and vaccination’s formative literary history that included authors such as William Wordsworth, William Blake, John Keats, Mary Shelley, and Arthur Conan Doyle. The book concludes with a re-examination of the current deeply contentious public discourse about vaccines that has arisen in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. By recovering the surprisingly literary genres of Romantic-era medical writing, The Smallpox Report models a new literary historical perspective on our own crises of vaccine refusal.

Phenomenology of Illness
Author: Havi Carel
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191091995
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
The experience of illness is a universal and substantial part of human existence. Like death, illness raises important philosophical issues. But unlike death, illness, and in particular the experience of being ill, has received little philosophical attention. This may be because illness is often understood as a physiological process that falls within the domain of medical science, and is thus outside the purview of philosophy. In Phenomenology of Illness Havi Carel argues that the experience of illness has been wrongly neglected by philosophers and proposes to fill the lacuna. Phenomenology of Illness provides a distinctively philosophical account of illness. Using phenomenology, the philosophical method for first-person investigation, Carel explores how illness modifies the ill person's body, values, and world. The aim of Phenomenology of Illness is twofold: to contribute to the understanding of illness through the use of philosophy and to demonstrate the importance of illness for philosophy. Contra the philosophical tendency to resist thinking about illness, Carel proposes that illness is a philosophical tool. Through its pathologising effect, illness distances the ill person from taken for granted routines and habits and reveals aspects of human existence that normally go unnoticed. Phenomenology of Illness develops a phenomenological framework for illness and a systematic understanding of illness as a philosophical tool.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
The normal Christian life should be anything but “normal”—it should be supernatural, one in which the living God expresses His very life in us and through us. With So Much More! Pastor Todd Hudson challenges all believers to embrace the supernatural power of God as a lifestyle. Todd is no stranger to his message. His own life has been supernaturally “wrecked,” he says, by the Holy Spirit. When God called him to resign from the 4,000-member evangelical megachurch he led for nine years and plant a Spirit-filled church, he began a new ministry of calling believers to live in resurrection power today, not someday in the future. If you know deep inside that there must be so much more to the Christian life, then Todd will help you discover how to experience and release the kingdom in your life today—and tomorrow!

He Was Our Man in Washington
Author: Owen Symes
Publisher: John Hunt Publishing
ISBN: 1789043328
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
'Owen Symes is a rising young star who has created a masterful social history of the Obama years. The clarification of Obamacare and other policies for health and human services is especially helpful. As we move forward, Symes’s analysis helps us shed our illusions so we can avoid making the same mistakes all over again.' Howard Waitzkin, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Sociology, University of New Mexico He Was Our Man in Washington provides a detailed narrative of the years of the Obama administration gravitating around six key topics: the War on Terror, the Great Recession, marginal struggles, the Affordable Care Act, climate change, and Indigenous issues, that sit at the intersection of the other topics. Each chapter begins with a brief account of the historical context within which the Obama administration acted. The result is a fair-minded but highly critical interpretation of president Obama and his brand of "hope and change," grounded in a reality that goes beyond mere headlines.

Moving Beyond Racism
Author: Heather Albanesi
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
During the spring of 2008, one of the media's feeding frenzies involved a United Church of Christ congregation in Chicago, pastored by the Reverend Dr. Jeremiah Wright. For days and weeks, all one could see on every news channel were a few very short clips, absent of context, of Reverend Wright's sermons preached some time ago. What followed outraged many on both sides of the political fence. The sound bites lent themselves to commentators' easy, negative analysis of the sermons. In the traditional media, commentators offered an interpretation, couched in the language of patriotism, that Wright was too angry, that he overstated the problem of racism in America today. While some were extremely frustrated at this nearly universal take on Wright's sermons and felt it served to mask the continuing reality of racial oppression, others saw a positive side, in that racism had resurfaced as a topic of conversation in homes across America. Nearly forty years after the Civil Rights Movement had "fixed everything," people started talking, discussing, and even arguing about racism in the United States. Was racism still with us? If so, how could that be after such a long period of time? Or had racism just changed from blatant, in-your-face discrimination to a new, post-affirmative action, "color-blind" racism. --from the introduction to Moving Beyond Racism Meet the twenty-one authors of Moving Beyond Racism who were moved to share their compelling personal memories and the events that inspired their reassessment of the complexities of race relations in 21st century America. You'll nod in recognition, shake your head in disbelief, and bear witness to the courage and self-knowledge that comes from bravely facing the place that racial attitudes play in our everyday lives. Make no mistake, the people you are about to meet are your neighbors, your co-workers, and your friends. Moving Beyond Racism is about all of us.
