Living with a Wild God
Author: Barbara Ehrenreich
Publisher: Twelve
ISBN: 1455501751
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed comes a brave, frank, and exquisitely written memoir that will change the way you see the world. Barbara Ehrenreich is one of the most important thinkers of our time. Educated as a scientist, she is an author, journalist, activist, and advocate for social justice. In Living With a Wild God, she recounts her quest-beginning in childhood-to find ""the Truth"" about the universe and everything else: What's really going on? Why are we here? In middle age, she rediscovered the journal she had kept during her tumultuous adolescence, which records an event so strange, so cataclysmic, that she had never, in all the intervening years, written or spoken about it to anyone. It was the kind of event that people call a ""mystical experience""-and, to a steadfast atheist and rationalist, nothing less than shattering. In Living With a Wild God, Ehrenreich reconstructs her childhood mission, bringing an older woman's wry and erudite perspective to a young girl's impassioned obsession with the questions that, at one point or another, torment us all. The result is both deeply personal and cosmically sweeping-a searing memoir and a profound reflection on science, religion, and the human condition. With her signature combination of intellectual rigor and uninhibited imagination, Ehrenreich offers a true literary achievement-a work that has the power not only to entertain but amaze.

The Works of the Flesh
Author: Michael Caputo
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781494801090
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
Evils abound in our world. Satan, “the Prince of the power of the air,” as Paul instructed us, definitely “works in the children of disobedience.” (Eph. 2: 2 NKJV). The results of his evil efforts are greed, unbridled immorality, broken homes, murders, wars and many other evils that are making our world evermore unlivable. These are the signs that Satan is indeed “The God of this world” (II Corinthians 4: 4 KJV). The Devil continually tempts humans into participating into his evil deeds, listed by the Apostle Paul in Galatians chapter five as “The Works of the Flesh.” Christians must be aware of these Works, and must know their manifestations well for, as Paul warns, “they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God” (II Corinthians 4:4 KJV). This book is meant to enlighten those who want to know the Works of the Flesh in depth. Each word used by Paul in Galatians 5 will be analyzed thoroughly, and time will be spent analyzing the psychological and societal manifestations of the evil each word represents. Lastly, plentiful biblical and sensible advice will be provided on how to be victorious in our war against Satan and his Works.
