Spiritual Adoption
Author: R. P. Ascano, PhD
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1512741736
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
In my decades of ministry, I have watched ministry leaders struggle to develop healthy and functional relationships within their families, churches, and organizations. This excellent work provides theoretical and practical insight for encouraging and guiding leaders for building the most fundamental dimension of ministryspiritually and emotionally mature leaders. Rev. Eugene Weaver President Gospel Crusade Ministerial Fellowship Spiritual Adoption is a fascinating study of the interrelationships among and between the psychological, spiritual, and neurological dimensions of behavior. Using the metaphor and example of attachments, rooted in biblical examples, the Doctors Ascano weave a useful framework for working with people in the midst of their lives, not just within a clinical framework. I would recommend this book for clinicians, pastors, and ministry administrators who want to understand what they and their staff and clients bring to the arena, and how to address these issues from a biblical context.

Everything’s been upside down since I helped Maya and the Faithful with the Rojo clan: Luna said no when I offered to turn her as per our arrangement, a sentiment I agree with but don’t understand—and Sam, my “favorite” Faithful, is telling me, an unholy being, to stay “topped up.” And if there’s a hell for vampires, I’m living in it: Paco hasn’t come back since I turned him, and I need to break up with an all-too-human Zach for his own well-being. When Luna’s kidnapped by a cult attempting to summon the Sleeper, I have absolute proof that it’s safer for everyone for me to be alone—but I’m going to need Paco’s help to find her, because he’s the only one who knows what her blood tastes like. Will Paco forgive me for making him what I am, and will I get another chance to change Luna before she becomes a human sacrifice?

Conrad's Narratives of Difference
Author: Lissa Schneider
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136730729
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
In Joseph Conrad’s tales, representations of women and of "feminine" generic forms like the romance are often present in fugitive ways. Conrad’s use of allegorical feminine imagery, fleet or deferred introductions of female characters, and hybrid generic structures that combine features of "masculine" tales of adventure and intrigue and "feminine" dramas of love or domesticity are among the subjects of this literary study. Many of Conrad’s critics have argued that Conrad’s fictions are aesthetically flawed by the inclusion of women and love plots; thus Thomas Moser has questioned why Conrad did not "cut them out altogether." Yet a thematics of gender suffuses Conrad’s narrative strategies. Even in tales that contain no significant female characters or obvious love plots, Conrad introduces elusive feminine presences, in relationships between men, as well as in men’s relationships to their ship, the sea, a shore breeze, or even in the gendered embrace of death. This book investigates an identifiably feminine "point of view" which is present in fugitive ways throughout Conrad’s canon. Conrad’s narrative strategies are articulated through a language of sexual difference that provides the vocabulary and grammar for tales examining European class, racial, and gender paradigms to provide acute and, at times, equivocal investigations of femininity and difference.
