Book Description
A vivid and disquieting narrative of Jesuit slaveholding and its historical relationship with Jesuit universities in the United States The Society of Jesus, commonly known as the Jesuits, is renowned for the quality of the order's impact on higher education. Less well known, however, is the relationship between Jesuit higher education and slavery. For more than two hundred years, Jesuit colleges and seminaries in the United States supported themselves on the labor of the enslaved. "Let Us Go Free" tells the complex stories of the free and enslaved people associated with these Catholic institutions. Walker Gollar shows that, in spite of their Catholic faith, Jesuits were in most respects very typical slaveholders. At times, they may have been concerned with the spiritual and physical well-being of the enslaved, but mostly they were concerned with the finances of their plantations and farms. Gollar traces the legacies of the Jesuits' participation in the slaveholding economy, portrays the experiences of those enslaved by the Jesuits, and shares the Jesuits' attempts to come to terms with their history. Deeply based on original research in Jesuit archives, "Let Us Go Free" provides a vivid and disquieting narrative of Jesuit slaveholding for the general reader interested in the historical relationship between slavery and universities in the United States.

Come Let Us Go Up to the House of the Lord
Author: Peter Lovett
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1619967561
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
By His Love, God has given us a Better Covenant In this Covenant, our Dreams will be realized, our Hopes fulfilled, and our Vision of Life satisfied through the Indwelling of a New Source of Life, God Himself. Under the old, we were tired and weary, we were condemned! But under this New Covenant, We are set Free to move by the Power of His Life. Under this New and Better Way, He has built Strengths in us that enable us to obey His Commandments and therefore receive His Blessings. He has given to us a storehouse in Christ! Come let us go up to the House of the Lord! Peter Lovett has been a Believer in Christ for over 30 years. He has experienced many church environments throughout his lifetime and has been trained in Bible School and other Ministerial Training. He has faced many trials and tribulations, himself and he has found that through it all, the strength to survive and thrive, comes from the indwelling Presence of God. God has shown His faithfulness over and over in so many surprising ways. God always has a plan that is larger and ore encompassing than ours. He knows how to turn things to the good and turn sorrow into Joy! Surely to know the Scripture, has been Peter's heart desire, to know the depth of God's Word, but the greatest Joy he has had, is to know the Person of the Word and that is God Himself. This is where Life is found.
