Book Description
Inspiration from the Apostle Paul on how to pray bold, exciting prayers. Inspiration from the Apostle Paul on how to pray bold, exciting prayers. So many of us struggle with prayer. Many books have been written on the subject and there’s a reason for that. Prayer comes hard to most of us, in most seasons. And when we do pray, we often don't know what to say. What is it that my Father loves to hear about? What are the best things I could pray for my family, my church, and myself? This short book by renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg combines warmth, clarity, humour, and practicality as he examines Paul’s prayers for his friends in the church in Ephesus. Paul clearly enjoyed prayer, and was excited about it. He expected his Father in heaven to hear what he said, and to act in other people’s lives accordingly. The truths that underpin and shape his prayers will motivate us to pray and set us an example. So be inspired by the Apostle Paul to pray bigger and better prayers as we look to our heavenly Father to do more than all we ask or imagine!

Fires of Gold
Author: Lauren Coyle Rosen
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520974735
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Fires of Gold is a powerful ethnography of the often shrouded cultural, legal, political, and spiritual forces governing the gold mining industry in Ghana, one of Africa’s most celebrated democracies. Lauren Coyle Rosen argues that significant sources of power have arisen outside of the formal legal system to police, adjudicate, and navigate conflict in this theater of violence, destruction, and rebirth. These authorities, or shadow sovereigns, include the transnational mining company, collectivized artisanal miners, civil society advocacy groups, and significant religious figures and spiritual forces from African, Islamic, and Christian traditions. Often more salient than official bodies of government, the shadow sovereigns reveal a reconstitution of sovereign power—one that, in many ways, is generated by hidden dimensions of the legal system. Coyle Rosen also contends that spiritual forces are central in anchoring and animating shadow sovereigns as well as key forms of legal authority, economic value, and political contestation. This innovative book illuminates how the crucible of gold, itself governed by spirits, serves as a critical site for embodied struggles over the realignment of the classical philosophical triad: the city, the soul, and the sacred.

Prayers from the Heart
Author: Rev. James E. Holder
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1453556745
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Prayer has always been an integral part of author Rev. James E. Holders life. But while he was growing up, he observed that prayers had a predictable pattern and were pretty much routine recitations. This was troubling for him, a young man growing into a pastoral ministry. So, he tried writing some prayerswhich became a regular thing for him. And in his newly released book, Prayers from the Heart, he shares some of these prayers so others, even the young pastors, can use this as a guide or plan for their own prayer momentsand experience the blessing of talking and being with God. Divided into different chapters, from church prayers to selected prayers for occasions and professions, these beautiful Prayers from the Heart offer readers a chance to discover the wonderful feeling of writing and saying their own prayers. Because prayer is a way to communicate with God, it should bear meaning to the person praying. There should be truth, honesty, and faith in every word prayed and said. Rev. Holder hopes that with this collection of prayers, readers will find some ideas and help on how to pray from the heart. Others would probably approach this subject differently but if this challenges you to think thats all Im asking for, anyway. This book goes out with my sincere prayer that all who might read it would find the way to satisfy that deep yearning to pray and to receive the very real sense that you have talked with the Heavenly Father about those things that are most important to you, the author prays.
