Book Description
Based on Kurt Bennett's popular-ish blog God Running, Love Like Jesus begins with the story of how after a life of regular church attendance and Bible study, Bennett was challenged by a pastor to study Jesus. That led to an obsessive seven-year deep dive. After pouring over Jesus' every interaction with another human being, he realized he was doing a much better job of studying Jesus' words than he was following Jesus' words and example. The honest and fearless revelations of Bennett's own moral failures affirm he wrote this book for himself as much as for others. Love Like Jesus examines a variety of stories, examples, and research, including: -Specific examples of how Jesus communicated God's love to others. -How Jesus demonstrated all five of Gary Chapman's love languages (and how you can too). -The story of how Billy Graham extended Christ's extraordinary love and grace toward a man who misrepresented Jesus to millions. -How to respond to critics the way Jesus did. -How to love unlovable people the way Jesus did. -How to survive a life of loving like Jesus (or how not to become a Christian doormat). -How Jesus didn't love everyone the same (and why you shouldn't either). -How Jesus guarded his heart by taking care of himself--he even napped--and why you should do the same.-How Jesus loved his betrayer Judas, even to the very end. With genuine unfiltered honesty, Love Like Jesus, shows you how to live a life according to God's definition of success: A life of loving God well, and loving the people around you well too. A life of loving like Jesus.

Book Description
“ This is me. I am what I am and I’m not going to fix myself.” “Follow your heart.” How can someone can be so beautiful, be well-off, have pain in their heart, yet bear it and survive? This story, of a young lady, tells us a lot about the foretelling of traditional myths, covering humanity in a name of blame games and about the practices of an education system as culture. In a conformist society, Pankhuri, is a young, audacious, from an orthodox family. She is a student who plots illustration and imaginary tales with illustrations. She has been suffering from survival of Hassel’s depression and anxiety for the past eight years and maybe, there are many more days to come. This is when she crosses a conflux welded road of a boy named Reeaan, a successful man, a good leader but has a heart of stone. How badly a bipolarity of religious affairs dragged their wishes behind where it matters. An innocent transformation from a bellicose prisoned girl to a young woman leader with multiple failures and downfalls. Will she treat her career and love equally? How did her unstable functioning establish her well in life? What lessons doesshe get from her failure and fear? This is not only at love story but realities we come across in daily life. We shall be the witness of this rugged and beautiful bond and unwrapped mystery behind the two worlds.

The Remaking of the Chinese Character and Identity in the 21st Century
Author: Wenshan Jia
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313074704
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Wenshan Jia demonstrates that a true liberation of Chinese civic discourse can start with a focus on indigenous cultural practices, such as face practices--the understanding that every human face offers a distinct cultural grammar for acting, speaking, and feeling. Chinese character and identity, the author argues, are primarily functions of communication, and as such, these practices are of enormous consequence to the necessary reconstruction of Chinese identity in the changing socioeconomic context of the 21st century. In this way, Jia finds a middle ground between the advocacy of complete Westernization and radical Chinese nationalism: as a pragmatic alternative, communication is key. Never before has facework research been approached so systematically from the standpoint of its relationship to character and identity. Jia's work substantially advances the literature on Chinese communication and presents a unique perspective on its relationship to social transformation. This new paradigm of facework--including analytical methods such as Circular Questioning in addition to major case studies--challenges traditional views while pointing the way toward a new and valuable social-constructionist view.
