Wonder Awaits! encourages children of all ages to use those senses and everyday activities to see the miracles of creation.

Accompanying the words are dozens of photos portraying children from 2 to 6 years of age representing the practices encouraged by the text.

Miracles
Author: Charles Raymond Dillon
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595141161
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Most of the stories in this book are outside the scope of our everyday experience, many unbelievable, yet many have been validated by observers as being authentic. There are stories of weeping and mobile statues, incorruptible flesh of the dead, and spontaneous combustion of human bodies. Other stories concern ecstasy, levitation, visions, healing, and other mysterious events. The concept of miracles have been attacked by rationalist philosophers who argue that they would be a violation of the common course of nature, thus the events could not happen. Saint Augustine answered such critics by defining miracles as being events that are unknown in nature, not as something opposed to it. This book contains a collection of wondrous events that have been reported at have occurred at different times, in diverse places, and among all peoples of the world. These wonderful events may be called miracles, frauds, coincidences, or what ever you may choose. Many have been investigated and determined to have been fraud. The intent is to present the information, and to let you decide if they are real miracles or not.

Holy Treasure and Sacred Song
Author: Benjamin Brand
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199351368
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
In the Middle Ages, relic cults provoked rich expressions of devotion not only in hagiographic literature and visual art but also in liturgical music and ritual. Despite the long-recognized inter-play between these diverse media, historians of the period rarely integrate analysis of sacred music into their research on other modes of worship espoused by relic cults. Holy Treasure and Sacred Song situates this oft-neglected yet critical domain of religious life at the center of an examination of relic cults in medieval Tuscany. Long recognized as a center of artistic innovation during the Renaissance, this region also boasted the rich and well documented veneration of holy bishops and martyrs buried in the cathedrals and suburban shrines of its principal cities. Author Benjamin Brand reveals that the music composed to honor these local saints - no fewer than ninety chants for the Mass and Divine Office - were essential components of larger devotional campaigns that included the recording of their life stories and the building and decoration of their shrines. Furthermore, the local Tuscan clerics who assumed control of these campaigns with the intent of gaining both temporal and spiritual power drew on influential global models - literary, architectural, musical, and ritual - from preeminent European powers, Rome and the Carolingian Empire. By integrating detailed analyses of plainsong and sacred ritual into this rich panorama, Brand traces the dialectic between local, regional, and pan-European trends, revealing the centrality of the liturgy in the development of medieval relic cults and, in a broader sense, medieval European culture and politics. Offering a rich topography of music, liturgy, and devotion through an interdisciplinary approach ideal for the multifaceted nature of medieval relic cults, Holy Treasure and Sacred Song will find a broad audience amongst musicologists and medievalists alike.
