Brass Heavens
Author: Paul Tautges
Publisher: Cruciform Press
ISBN: 1936760657
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
Does it ever seem like God is not listening? Sometimes we're tempted to wonder if God can hear us. After months or even years of praying over a particular person or situation, we look for evidence that God is getting our message or even paying attention, and we can't find much. Why is that? Why do the heavens sometimes seem as hard and reflective as brass? Doesn't God love us and care for us? Isn't he all-powerful? What's going on? In Brass Heavens author, pastor, and biblical counselor Paul Tautges grounds prayer in the character of our Triune God whose very nature is to share generously his good gifts with his children. Upon that foundation, Tautges then explores six reasons why at times God appears to go silent. As we examine these causes of unanswered prayer, we discover the biblical means by which we may open God's ears to our voice once again. God has a good and holy purpose for periods of silence. He wants to test our faith that we might see for ourselves just how weak and dependent we are on him for all good things. His goal is nothing less than to heighten our spiritual sensitivities in order to draw us into more intimate fellowship with him and more faithful obedience to him.

Religious Activism in the Global Economy
Author: Sabine Dreher
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1783486988
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Protests of neoliberal globalization have proliferated in recent years, not least in response to the financial crisis, austerity and increasing inequality. But how do religious groups organize themselves in response to these issues? This book systematically studies the relationship of religious activism towards neoliberal globalization. It considers how religious organizations often play a central role in the resistance against global capitalism, endeavouring to offer alternatives and developments for reform. But it also examines the other side of the coin, showing how many religious groups help to diffuse neoliberal values, promote and reinforce practices of capitalism. Drawing on a unique set of case studies from around the world, the chapters examine a range of groups and their practices in order to provide a thorough examination of the relationship between religion and the global political economy.

Religion, Media, and Marginality in Modern Africa
Author: Felicitas Becker
Publisher: Ohio University Press
ISBN: 082144624X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
In recent years, anthropologists, historians, and others have been drawn to study the profuse and creative usages of digital media by religious movements. At the same time, scholars of Christian Africa have long been concerned with the history of textual culture, the politics of Bible translation, and the status of the vernacular in Christianity. Students of Islam in Africa have similarly examined politics of knowledge, the transmission of learning in written form, and the influence of new media. Until now, however, these arenas—Christianity and Islam, digital media and “old” media—have been studied separately. Religion, Media, and Marginality in Modern Africa is one of the first volumes to put new media and old media into significant conversation with one another, and also offers a rare comparison between Christianity and Islam in Africa. The contributors find many previously unacknowledged correspondences among different media and between the two faiths. In the process they challenge the technological determinism—the notion that certain types of media generate particular forms of religious expression—that haunts many studies. In evaluating how media usage and religious commitment intersect in the social, cultural, and political landscapes of modern Africa, this collection will contribute to the development of new paradigms for media and religious studies. Contributors: Heike Behrend, Andre Chappatte, Maria Frahm-Arp, David Gordon, Liz Gunner, Bruce S. Hall, Sean Hanretta, Jorg Haustein, Katrien Pype, and Asonzeh Ukah.

Book Description
Messages From Heaven About the Future of Our World. Mary, God's Final Preacher, God is always trying to lead man away from self-destruction. He sends his preachers. He sends his teachers. But these are snuffed out. Their words are not listened to and their invitations are rejected. So, finally, he has sent me. I am his final teacher, his final prophet. I am his last opportunity to change the course of history. There is no one behind me, no other message, no other signs than the ones that I will give. When I tell the world that it must listen to me, I am not speaking from a selfish and arrogant spirit. I am speaking as one who sees the destruction, the hopelessness of mankind if my words are not heeded.

Love Opened Heaven’S Door
Author: Bill Hoffman
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449775276
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
There is a relatively safe and sane spiritual walk for the Christian, and Gods love is the source. This book brings good teaching from a variety of teachers/writers, and an outpouring of love, sense and sensitivity, forgiveness and acceptance in the Christian walk. God the Father, in methods past, has revealed His personality in all its fullness in His Son. The life of Christ is the source for a spiritual walk in the open air without surrender to mystery. Our Christian philosophy should be consistent with reality, make sense, and be practical. Dr. Alva J. McClain has written this clearly, and his statements are a part of this book. Disillusionment feeds on the word allow, because it implies that God is the cause or authority behind all events. Pastor-author Rick Warren makes a powerful statement quoted in this book about evil and its real cause. What are some of the causes of good and bad things? Does God allow accidents, sickness, and evil? Christianity does not begin with walking: it begins with sitting, wrote Watchman Nee. This book starts with the sitting-place in the Christians permanent home with Christ.

Kisses from Katie

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Katie was a normal American teenager when she decided to explore the possibility of voluntary work overseas. She temporarily 'quit life' to serve in Uganda for a year before going to college. However, returning to 'normal' became impossible and Katie 'quit life' - college, designer clothes, her little yellow convertible and her boyfriend - for good, remaining in Uganda. In the early days she felt as though she were trying to empty the ocean with an eyedropper, but has learnt that she is not called to change the world in itself, but to change the world for one person at a time. By the age of 22 Katie had adopted 14 girls and founded Amizima Ministries which currently has sponsors for over 600 children and a feeding program for Uganda's poorest citizens - so it is no wonder she feels Jesus wrecked her life, shattered it to pieces, and put it back together making it more beautiful than it was before.
