The Melodies of Christ
Author: Ronald William Cadmus
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664270256
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
We hear many discussions today about how traditional hymns and anthems are in conflict with the contemporary songs that now fill our sanctuaries—to the point we designate separate worship services on Sunday mornings. But the traditional and the contemporary need not be at odds. Blending these two approaches together, the prose, poetry, and lyrics of The Melodies of Christ vividly capture the life of Christ as an inspiring way to enhance worship and liturgy. They present compelling images that speak to the soul and lift the heart in praise, adoration, and prayer. These verses serve as a reference and inspiration for creative readings during the seasons of the church year and can also inspire personal contemplative moments for daily meditations. Many of the texts have been set as major choral works and church anthems. This collection of writings combines the traditional and the contemporary in forms of praise and adoration, illustrating the meaning and beauty each approach brings to our worship of God.

You Are STILL Being Lied To
Author: Russ Kick
Publisher: Red Wheel Weiser
ISBN: 1934708305
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 732
Book Description
A must-have revised and expanded edition of The Disinformation Company’s classic anthology, You Are STILL Being Lied To contains more than a dozen all-new essays from contributors like Norman Solomon, Graham Hancock, Alex Jones, John Major Jenkins, Robert Bauval, Richard DeGrandpre, Alexandra Bruce,John Hogue, Gregory Davis, and Scott Creighton on topics ranging from the misleading marketing of antidepressants to the truth about the North American Union, from media consolidation to the New Thought movement. Editor Russ Kick’s massive collection acts as a battering ram against the distortions, myths, and outright lies that have been shoved down our throats by the government, the media, corporations, organized religion, the scientific establishment, and others who want to keep the truth from us. An unprecedented group of researchers including Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Howard Bloom, Sydney Schanberg, Michael Parenti, Riane Eisler, Jim Marrs, and many, many others paint a picture of a world where crucial stories are ignored or actively suppressed and the official version of events has more holes in it than Swiss cheese. A world where real dangers are downplayed and nonexistent dangers are trumpeted. In short, a world where you are being lied to.

Buddhist Magic
Author: Sam van Schaik
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 1611808251
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
A fascinating exploration of the role that magic has played in the history of Buddhism As far back as we can see in the historical record, Buddhist monks and nuns have offered services including healing, divination, rain making, aggressive magic, and love magic to local clients. Studying this history, scholar Sam van Schaik concludes that magic and healing have played a key role in Buddhism's flourishing, yet they have rarely been studied in academic circles or by Western practitioners. The exclusion of magical practices and powers from most discussions of Buddhism in the modern era can be seen as part of the appropriation of Buddhism by Westerners, as well as an effect of modernization movements within Asian Buddhism. However, if we are to understand the way Buddhism has worked in the past, the way it still works now in many societies, and the way it can work in the future, we need to examine these overlooked aspects of Buddhist practice. In Buddhist Magic, van Schaik takes a book of spells and rituals--one of the earliest that has survived--from the Silk Road site of Dunhuang as the key reference point for discussing Buddhist magic in Tibet and beyond. After situating Buddhist magic within a cross-cultural history of world magic, he discusses sources of magic in Buddhist scripture, early Buddhist rituals of protection, medicine and the spread of Buddhism, and magic users. Including material from across the vast array of Buddhist traditions, van Schaik offers readers a fascinating, nuanced view of a topic that has too long been ignored.
