Book Description
When seven-year-old Bethany meets her six-year-old cousin Reana Mae, it's the beginning of a kinship of misfits that saves both from a bone-deep loneliness. Every summer, Bethany and her family leave Indianapolis for West Virginia's Coal River Valley. For Bethany's mother, the trips are a reminder of the coalmines and grinding poverty of her childhood, of a place she'd hoped to escape. But her loving relatives, and Bethany's friendship with Reana Mae, keep them coming back. But as Bethany grows older, she realizes that life in this small, close-knit community is not as simple as she once thought. . .that the riverside cabins that hold so much of her family's history also teem with scandalous whispers. . .and that those closest to her harbor unimaginable secrets. Amid the dense woods and quiet beauty of the valley, these secrets are coming to light at last, with a force devastating enough to shatter lives, faith, and the bond that Bethany once thought would last forever. Spanning four decades, Sherri Wood Emmons' debut is a haunting, captivating novel about the unexpected, sometimes shocking events that thrust us into adulthood--and the connections that keep us tethered, always, to our pasts.

New Eucharistic Prayers
Author: Frank C. Senn
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1597525669
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
There are fifty-two eucharistic prayers studied in this book: the official texts of the Roman Catholic Church, the Episcopal Church in the U.S., several Lutheran Churches in North America, the United Methodist Church, and the Presbyterian Church (USA). The contributors to this volume are scholars from these church bodies who participated in the work of the Eucharistic Prayer Study Group of the North American Academy of Liturgy, an ecumenical professional society of liturgists. This book tells the story of how these prayers developed. It illustrates the way the various churches dealt with historical traditions and contemporary concerns, worship and culture, piety and theology. The essays in the second part of the book analyze the component parts of the prayers, looking at them across the ecumenical spectrum of the texts. They reveal both an impressive consensus on what should go into the eucharistic prayers, as well as many unresolved questions. The final part of the book deals with this ongoing agenda.

Daily, Sabbath, and Festival Prayers in the Dead Sea Scrolls
Author: Daniel K. Falk
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004350284
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
All the evidence for daily, sabbath, and festival prayers in the Qumran scrolls is analysed in detail, document by document. On the basis of formal features and social-liturgical setting, these prayers are compared with each other to uncover divergent prayer traditions. Comparative material beyond the scrolls is used to reassess their place in the development of Jewish prayer. Evidence for prayers of different origin found at Qumran is important for reconsidering the nature of the scrolls, the community(s) which used them, and the history of Jewish liturgy. For several texts significant new reconstructions are offered.

Remember, little prayers bring little results, more prayers bring greater results! Prayer is your weapon, so use it!

Prayers for Affirmation
Author: Revd Elijah Turner
Publisher: Tiny Shoe Media
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
Prayer has long been an essential part of many spiritual practices. For centuries, people have turned to prayer as a way to connect with a higher power, seek guidance, and express gratitude. However, one form of prayer that has grown increasingly popular in recent years is affirmative prayer. This type of prayer is not about asking for something outside ourselves but rather about affirming our connection with the Divine and recognizing the abundance and blessings that are already present in our lives. Affirmative prayer is about speaking words of truth and power over ourselves, our circumstances, and our relationships. It is a prayer of affirmation, which means that we state what we know to be true about ourselves and the world, trusting that by affirming these truths, we invite more of them into our experience. It is based on the belief that words have power. Words, when spoken with intention and faith, can create new realities, heal wounds, and transform our lives in profound ways. In this eBook, we will explore how prayer and affirmations can work together to create a life filled with peace, abundance, love, and purpose. Affirmations are more than just positive thinking; they are a form of prayer that acknowledges the presence of divine power within and around us. The chapters ahead will guide you through different areas of life where affirmative prayer can be used for transformation. Whether you are seeking peace of mind, healing for your body, financial prosperity, or harmonious relationships, this eBook will provide you with prayers and affirmations that you can use every day to create the life you desire. You will learn how to use the power of your words to affirm your worth, to manifest your dreams, and to align yourself with the Divine's infinite possibilities. This collection of prayers for affirmation will not only offer you words to speak but will also guide you in understanding how these words can shape your reality. By incorporating these prayers into your life, you will experience a shift in your consciousness, leading to greater joy, fulfillment, and empowerment. Before diving into the specific areas where affirmations can be applied, it is important to understand the concept of affirmative prayer itself. Affirmative prayer is rooted in the idea that God, or whatever higher power you believe in, is always present and that the power of this presence is always available to you. You do not need to beg for help or seek approval. Instead, you affirm that you are already a part of this divine energy, and through your words, you align yourself with this truth. As you embark on this journey of prayer and affirmation, remember that you are not alone. The Divine is with you, always ready to guide and support you. The words you speak are powerful, and when used with faith and conviction, they can help you transform your life. Let each prayer be a reminder of your strength, your worth, and the infinite possibilities that lie before you.
