This new edition of Daniel Berrigan's classic autobiography To Dwell in Peace, with a new afterword by the author, takes us through his childhood in Syracuse; his early years as a Jesuit, teacher, priest, and poet; his bold 1968 Catonsville Nine action, when he poured homemade napalm on draft files in opposition to the U.S. war on Vietnam; and his ongoing civil disobedience, which led to his going underground and subsequent two-year imprisonment.

Paths to Dwell In
Author: Jean Cowger
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973623498
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
I dont know that it was ever my plan to write a book. Perhaps my pencil thought to do so, for it has watched, measured and faithfully recorded the joys, sorrows, searching and truths that have accompanied my days. My pencil seems to be the most honest part of me, for it is more discriminating in its thought processes; more discerning of Truth, values, choices and the reality with which they pave the path of our eternity. Not so prone to emotions, my pencil has not been afraid to ask the hard questions and record the journey that led to the specific insights and revelations that have continually shaped my thoughts, and thereby my choices and my life. I hope my pencil speaks to you in kind, opens your ear and your heart to the sound of another Voice; a Voice that speaks to your soul of things large and small, common and those thought impossible. It is my sincere hope that within my pages you will find a word fitly spoken, one that speaks challenge and hope to your soul, causes your countenance to be forever changed; for when we know change, we transform the circle of humanity entrusted to our care.

MY RACIAL GROUP'S PURPOSE ON EARTH
Author: Franklin Gibbs
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491708255
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
We spend a lot of time in determining our individual purposes (i.e., our callings) for being here on earth. Some of us were called (created) to be singers, dancers, preachers, teachers, helpers, exhorters, prophets and so on. This is fine. But, this book goes beyond our individual purpose (calling) and delves deeply into our racial group’s purpose (calling). That is, this book shows you the nuts and bolts of your racial group’s purpose here on earth. Each racial group on the face of the earth was created to fulfill a divine purpose. Thus, we need to know our racial group’s purpose so that we can serve God completely. Moreover, mixed children of color from interracial marriages are special to God. For they have a special purpose to fulfill on earth and in heaven. That said, this book shows why God created racial groups with different skin tones, nose sizes, lip shapes and hair textures. You’ll be amazed to see how pivotal cherubim (God’s special angels) are in determining our racial group’s purpose. God patterned their behavior after man’s expected behavior. So, this book studies their behavior patterns in detail to see what our racial groups are supposed to do. That said, for centuries racial groups have been bickering and clawing at one another. But, once we become aware of and start following our racial group’s purpose (as shown in this book), our racial problems will be solved- i.e., they’ll go away. In this book, you’ll enjoy to the fullest extent the ingenious purpose for which God created you and your racial group and the amazing treasures and benefits that He has in store for you and your racial group.

The Philosophy of Heidegger
Author: Michael Watts
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317548019
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
"The Philosophy of Heidegger" is a readable and reliable overview of Heidegger's thought, suitable both for beginners and advanced students. A striking and refreshing feature of the work is how free it is from the jargon and standard idioms of academic philosophical writing. Written in straightforward English, with many illustrations and concrete examples, this book provides a very accessible introduction to such key Heideggerian notions as in/authenticity, falling, throwness, moods, temporality, earth, world, enframing, etc. Organized under clear, no-nonsense headings, Watt's exposition avoids complicated involvement with the secondary literature, or with wider philosophical debates, which gives his writing a fresh, immediate character. Ranging widely across Heidegger's numerous writings, this book displays an impressively thorough knowledge of his corpus, navigating the difficult relationship between earlier and later Heidegger texts, and giving the reader a strong sense of the basic motives and overall continuity of Heidegger's thought.

"About 40 Percent of American Women Have Had Abortions." -Newsweek.com With a statistic as high as this, it is likely that you have a friend or relative who has made this tragic choice. Perhaps you have seen this person struggle with depression, anxiety, nightmares, outbursts of anger, over-protectiveness, relationship difficulties and/or self-destructive behaviors (such as anorexia, bulimia, harming self, drugs, alcohol or suicidal thoughts). You may have wanted to help your friend, but you didn't know what to do or say. Go in Peace will give you the answer. This resource, which is excellent for personal study and for those who desire to be used by God more powerfully in ministering to people in need, will show you practical ways to apply God's Word to the hurting person's life so that she can be set free from the guilt, shame, hurt and pain associated with her decision. Hurt, whether self-inflicted or inflicted by another, can affect us to the depths of our being, and if this hurt is not handled the way God intended, it can keep us in bondage to our past. Although this book was written specifically for the issue of post-abortion, in reality it offers hope and healing for anyone who is hurting. It will show you how to be free from this pain so that you and your loved ones can go in peace! Endorsement This is a powerful book that will change the lives of the men and women who read it. Using her own story and the story of the Sinful Woman in Luke 7 as a foundation, Cherie addresses many of the issues that are brought about by the unconfessed sin in people's lives-whether that sin is abortion or any other self-destructive behavior. She also provides practical steps to help those caught in such patterns gain freedom and overcome their past. This book will truly help readers to go in peace! -Mark Weising, Senior Managing Editor, Regal Books Author Bio Cherie Fresonke has ministered to women and teenagers since 1993, discipling women in the United States and Eastern Europe.

The Johannine Renaissance in Early Modern English Literature and Theology
Author: Paul Cefalu
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192536176
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
The Johannine Renaissance in Early Modern English Literature and Theology argues that the Fourth Gospel and First Epistle of Saint John the Evangelist were so influential during the early modern period in England as to share with Pauline theology pride of place as leading apostolic texts on matters Christological, sacramental, pneumatological, and political. The book argues further that, in several instances, Johannine theology is more central than both Pauline theology and the Synoptic theology of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, particularly with regard to early modern polemicizing on the Trinity, distinctions between agape and eros, and the ideologies of radical dissent, especially the seventeenth-century antinomian challenge of free grace to traditional Puritan Pietism. In particular, early modern religious poetry, including works by Robert Southwell, George Herbert, John Donne, Richard Crashaw, Thomas Traherne, and Anna Trapnel, embraces a distinctive form of Johannine devotion that emphasizes the divine rather than human nature of Christ; the belief that salvation is achieved more through revelation than objective atonement and expiatory sin; a realized eschatology; a robust doctrine of assurance and comfort; and a stylistic and rhetorical approach to representing these theological features that often emulates John's mode of discipleship misunderstanding and dramatic irony. Early modern Johannine devotion assumes that religious lyrics often express a revelatory poetics that aims to clarify, typically through the use of dramatic irony, some of the deepest mysteries of the Fourth Gospel and First Epistle.
