Salvation with a Smile
Author: Phillip Luke Sinitiere
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 0814723888
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Joel Osteen, the smiling preacher, has quickly emerged as one of the most recognizable Protestant leaders in the country. His megachurch, the Houston based Lakewood Church, hosts an average of over 40,000 worshipers each week. Osteen is the best-selling author of numerous books, and his sermons and inspirational talks appear regularly on mainstream cable and satellite radio. How did Joel Osteen become Joel Osteen? How did Lakewood become the largest megachurch in the U. S.? Salvation with a Smile, the first book devoted to Lakewood Church and Joel Osteen, offers a critical history of the congregation by linking its origins to post-World War II neopentecostalism, and connecting it to the exceptionally popular prosperity gospel movement and the enduring attraction of televangelism. In this richly documented book, historian Phillip Luke Sinitiere carefully excavates the life and times of Lakewood’s founder, John Osteen, to explain how his son Joel expanded his legacy and fashioned the congregation into America’s largest megachurch. As a popular preacher, Joel Osteen’s ministry has been a source of existential strength for many, but also the routine target of religious critics who vociferously contend that his teachings are theologically suspect and spiritually shallow. Sinitiere’s keen analysis shows how Osteen’s rebuttals have expressed a piety of resistance that demonstrates evangelicalism’s fractured, but persistent presence. Salvation with a Smile situates Lakewood Church in the context of American religious history and illuminates how Osteen has parlayed an understanding of American religious and political culture into vast popularity and success.

Freedom to Play
Author: Norah L. Lewis
Publisher: Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
ISBN: 0889207313
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
“When we were children we made our own fun” is a frequent comment from those who were children in pre-television times. But what games, activities and amusements did children enjoy prior to the mid-1950s? Recollections of older Canadians, selections from writings by Canadian authors and letters written to the children’s pages of agricultural publications indicate that for most children play was then, as now, an essential part of childhood. Through play, youngsters developed the physical, mental and emotional skills that helped them cope with life and taught them to get along with other children. In both rural and urban settings, children were generally free to explore their environment. They were sent outdoors to play by both parents and teachers. Their games were generally self-organized and physically active, with domestic animals acting as important companions and playmates. Children frequently made their own toys and equipment, and, since playing rather than winning was important, most children were included in games. Special days, holidays and organizations for children and youth provided welcome breaks from daily routines. Their lives were busy, but there was always time for play, always time for fun. Norah Lewis has provided an entertaining view of the toys, games and activities in Canada and pre-confederate Newfoundland from approximately 1900 through 1955. Her book will be of interest to historians, educators and sociologists, as well as anyone who lived through, or wants to know more about,those early years in Canada, and the games children used to play.

Book Description
I wish to see my book as a guide for those who are depressed, sad, woe begone, Pessimist, arrogant, Egotist and stone -hearted. The theme of my book is multiple ie" Live in today" Simple living high thinking" "Curtail attachment with materialism.Lift your soul above and be attuned with almighty.If you have surplus do not hesitate to give some to others who doesnt have. We are all created equal and we are all brothers and sisters. Live with love with each other. Love is God. Hate is of the Devil. Think yourself as a traveler in this world.Life is a short journey. Soon it will end and anon you have to go towards unknown there and then without dilly dally. Don't live like a slave being caught in by mundane illusionment and fugacious enchantment. Live always free of all bondages ties, taboos and tinsel snares whatsoever. Life is nothing but unending episode of unavoidable vicissitudes.From the very beginning to the end it has been followed by sorrows and happiness on slaughts.but in fact the outcome of life is mystic absolutely confusion casting. During life when we face adversity we cry helplessly like a timid and innocent child; but during prosperity we laugh and behave wildly and stupidity and become arrogant and egotist. Whichever angle you live or look at life, life looks as if the same. But we should live or look at life mostly in terms of soul not body. I believe if we think life in terms of soul; lot of life's foreseen and unforeseen problems be automatically mitigated and vanished. And life will become easy to live .Life become stressless, worryless, fearless and troubleless.
