A Theology of Sleep
Author: Marc Webb
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
“Marc Webb’s new book speaks of a very precious commodity to us all—SLEEP! It is a gift of God. It is a blessing that reminds us how great God is and how human we are. But this book is also a gift in teaching an overview of the biblical story from the biblical text on sleep. I promise, it won’t put you to sleep!” Bryant Wright, President of Send Relief “Dr. Marc Webb had me hooked with the title of his book. As a big fan of sleep, including the occasional nap, I couldn’t wait to dive into what he discovered in Scripture about this gracious gift from God. I recommend Dr. Webb’s book, as he traces the God-given gift of sleep throughout the Old and New Testament.” Todd Gray, Executive Director-Treasurer for The Kentucky Baptist Convention “Among books on the work/rest rhythm, Marc Webb’s work studies the actual act of sleep in the Bible. His insights are both thoughtful and vulnerable concerning the causes and consequences of sleep – using sometimes unexpected biblical passages. This is an original and helpful resource in understanding such an important part of our lives.” Taylor Field, Send Relief Missionary and author of Upside Down Leadership

Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With?

Book Description
Answers one of the biggest barriers to belief. Christians are increasingly seen as outdated, restrictive and judgmental when it comes to sex before marriage, cohabitation and homosexuality. In fact for many people, this issue is one of the biggest barriers for them considering Christianity. Sam Allberry, author of many books including Is God Anti-gay sets out God's good design for the expression of human sexuality, showing that God himself is love and that only he can satisfy our deepest desires. It is a great reminder of the Bible's positive blueprint for love, sex and marriage and ideal for giving away to people who may see this as a stumbling block for belief.

Pages : 170
Book Description
Sleep occupies around one third of a person's life and is the subject of research across many disciplines.

Offering original research, this book investigates sleep for the first time from a theological position, looking at all key questions that a theological treatment of sleep raises, including issues of identity and personhood, sleep and mortality, resurrection, and renewal and healing.

Rich Wounds
Author: David Mathis
Publisher: The Good Book Company

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Profound reflections on the cross that help you to meditate on and marvel at the sacrificial love of Jesus. This book can be used as a devotional, especially during Lent and Easter. These profound reflections on the cross from David Mathis, author of The Christmas We Didn’t Expect, will help you to meditate on and marvel at Jesus’ life, sacrificial death, and spectacular resurrection-enabling you to treasure anew who Jesus is and what he has done. Many of us are so familiar with the Easter story that it becomes easy to miss subtle details and difficult to really enjoy its meaning. This book will help you to pause and marvel at Jesus, whose now-glorified wounds are a sign of his unfailing love and the decisive victory that he has won: “He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5) This book can be used as a devotional. The chapters on Holy Week make it especially helpful during the Lent season and at Easter.

The Book of Sleep
Author: Haytham El Wardany
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780857429537
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Now in paperback, The Book of Sleep is a landmark in contemporary Arabic literature. What is sleep? How can this most unproductive of human states--metaphorically called death's shadow or considered the very pinnacle of indolence--be envisioned as action and agency? And what do we become in sleep? What happens to the waking selves we understand ourselves to be? Written in the spring of 2013, as the Egyptian government of President Mohammed Morsi was unraveling in the face of widespread protests, The Book of Sleep is a landmark in contemporary Arabic literature. Drawing on the devices and forms of poetry, philosophical reflection, political analysis, and storytelling, this genre-defying work presents us with an assemblage of fragments that combine and recombine, circling around their central theme but refusing to fall into its gravity. "My concern was not to create a literary product in the conventional sense, but to try and use literature as a methodology for thinking," El Wardany explains. In this volume, sleep shapes sentences and distorts conventions. Its protean instability throws out memoir and memory, dreams and hallucinatory reverie, Sufi fables and capitalist parables, in the quest to shape a question. The Book of Sleep is a generous and generative attempt to reimagine possibility and hope in a world of stifling dualities and constrictions.
