Book Description
MY QUEST FOR THE PROMISED MESSIAH My Jerusalem Encounter is the remarkable story of one man's quest for God, and God's quest for one man. In this very personal account, Geoffrey Cohen shares his journey of faith, which spans three continents and more than two decades. He describes with vivid clarity the turmoil he experienced in his native South Africa, the elements of war he witnessed in his backyard, and his incomprehensible persecution-oftentimes at the hand of so-called "Christians"-because of his Jewish birthright. This story demonstrates how God's undying love for His covenant people pursued one man whose life was plagued with hate and distrust of every person claiming Christianity. Until, that is, he had a supernatural encounter in the very heart of Jerusalem. The great lengths to which God pursued Geoffrey is a clear demonstration that He has not forgotten His covenant people, and illustrates the unfathomable and endless love He has for each one of us. His footprint can be seen throughout every page and detailed account of Geoffrey's story. You will be compelled to see through the eyes of one man how passionately God cares for every person, and how He will not relent until we each have a personal encounter with Him.

Jews and Arabs in Israel Encountering Their Identities
Author: Maya Kahanoff
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 1498504981
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Jews and Arabs in Israel Encountering their Identities reveals the powerful potential of inter-group dialogues to transform identities and mutually negating relations. Using meetings with Israeli Jewish and Palestinian Arabian students who attend the Hebrew University of Jerusalem as case studies, Kahanoff examines the hidden psychological dimensions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and illustrates how each participant’s sense of identity shifted in response to encounters with conflicting perspectives. Kahanoff contends that an awareness of the limitations of dialogue, without the renunciation of its value, is the most realistic basis upon which to build a sustainable agreement. This book is recommended for scholars of psychology, sociology, religious studies, political science, and communication studies.

How We Experience Modern Verse
Author: Eric Purchase
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000861252
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
Poetry moves us. Sometimes a poem changes our life. Then we analyze it as a cultural artifact with no special connection to us. An extensive critical apparatus enables us to develop sophisticated interpretations, but we dismiss as "idiosyncratic" even life-changing experiences of poetry. We need an apparatus to unfold our experience of reading poems into a more effective relationship with the world. Modern poets in particular wrote prophetic verse for this purpose. Archetypal psychology and phenomenology describe the soul that modern poetry moves in us. Three prosodic mechanisms activate the psyche. The polyphony of accentual and quantitative versification creates depth to lure the soul. Aural images reshape the reader’s stream of consciousness. Readers follow the movement of blocks of verse across the expanse of the page with what Maurice Merleau-Ponty terms the phenomenal body. These mechanisms reach us at the collective level of consciousness and generate the power we need to solve big, collective challenges, such as race, climate change, and inequality.

ISBN: 0253008891
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Essays on the challenges of anthropological work in a complicated country: “A compelling anthology.” —Ruth Behar Israel is a place of paradoxes, a small country with a diverse population and complicated social terrain. Studying its culture and social life means confronting a multitude of ethical dilemmas and methodological challenges. These first-person accounts by anthropologists engage contradictions of religion, politics, identity, kinship, racialization, and globalization to reveal fascinating and often vexing dimensions of the Israeli experience. Caught up in pressing existential questions of war and peace, social justice, and national boundaries, the contributors explore the contours of Israeli society as insiders and outsiders, natives and strangers, as well as critics and friends.

Youth Encounter Programs in Israel
Author: Karen Ross
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
ISBN: 0815654200
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
As the level of distrust and alienation between Jews and Palestinians has risen over the past fifteen years, the support for grassroots organizations’ attempts to bring these two groups closer has stagnated. Jewish-Palestinian youth encounter programs that flourished in the wake of the Oslo Accords now struggle to find support, as their potential to create positive social change in Israeli society is still unknown. In Youth Encounter Programs in Israel, Ross attempts to assess that potential by considering the relationship between participation in Jewish-Palestinian encounters and the long-term worldview and commitment to social change of their participants. Taking a comparative approach, Ross examines the structure and pedagogical approaches of two organizations in Israel, Peace Child Israel and Sadaka Reut. In doing so, Ross explores how these different organizations shape participants’ national identity, beliefs about social change, and motivation to continue engaging in peace-building activities. Based on more than one hundred interviews with program staff and former participants as well as more than two hundred hours of program observation, Ross’s work fills an important gap in the literature and holds significant relevance for peace education and conflict resolution practitioners.

My First Encounter with an Angel
Author: Sidney Schwartz
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781891850219
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
My First Encounter with an Angel is the first book of the Revelations of Ancient Wisdom - AWAN Speaks series that will illuminate truths about how spirituality, mediumship, and prophecy have been hidden for centuries by Biblical translators and religious rulers. AWAN, the Angel Without A Name contacted the author, Sidney Schwartz, through the person of Carl Hewitt, a well-known trance medium. Who or what AWAN is does not ultimately matter when you read and examine the incredible information that this entity is attempting to teach. During their first encounter, AWAN revealed to the author information about deliberate changes and alterations made in the Bible throughout the centuries based on the need of Church Fathers to suppress the psychic/spiritual development of the masses. The author however, remained theologically adamant and argued with this angel. It was then that AWAN challenged the author to disprove his teachings. Using his skills as a librarian, the author researched extensively, studying over 160 versions of the Bible, only to discover that AWAN was teaching the truth! Upon reading this book, you will begin to see that the Bible is "saturated with metaphysical or mediumistic phenomena of every kind".
