The Long Road to the Industrial Revolution
Author: Jan Luiten van Zanden
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9047428625
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Why did the Industrial Revolution happen in Western Europe? Was it a sudden acceleration of the European economy, or should we look at specific institutions arising in Western Europe since the Middle Ages? This book puts these big questions of European economic history in a global perspective, deals with the institutions that developed in Europe, and measures their relative efficiency over time and compared with other parts of Eurasia. It traces the growth of human capital in the centuries between 1000 and 1800, in comparison with China, Japan and India. It also demonstrates how important the European Marriage Pattern was for understanding Europe’s past. The result is a new synthesis of the origins of the Industrial Revolution.

A Woman’s Long Road to Happiness
Author: Angela Hope Sandoval
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796083755
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
This book “A Woman’s Long Road to Happiness” is just that, it’s a long road to finding happiness after a physical and verbal abusive life. For seventeen years of living in an abusive relationship she decided enough was enough. It’s a painful and inspiring triumphant story of a woman who fought to protect herself and her children from the abuser. She found her life’s treasures afterwards. There are many women who live and stay in an abusive situation for one reason or another. Life is a long road that comes with many obstacles and sharp winding curves which eventually takes you to a crossroad of making a hard decision as to which road you should take. Everyone’s abusive life story is different, some end up leaving and some never do. The greatest conqueror is to continue keeping the faith. When seeing the darkest helpless side of your life, never lose hope because he (God) will always have your back. The answers to prayers don’t ever come right away but in time the doors will open to be able to fly into another dimension that changes the mind or situation for a better life. I hope this book helps others that have lived or have had similar experiences and to say that there is a silver lining with a bright beautiful rainbow at the other end of the road.

Why Everything That Doesn't Matter, Matters So Much
Author: Andi Ashworth
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400337720
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
A hopeful and practical model for what it means to be a Christian and a culture-maker in a world of hurt and wondrous possibility, from multi–Grammy winner Charlie Peacock and his wife and author, Andi Ashworth. Do you feel powerless and overwhelmed by the pain and suffering all around you? Have you ever asked, What can I do to mend the world, my family, or my own life? And if I could, why bother? Does my own small part even matter? If so, here comes hope from two guides who are further down the road. Charlie and Andi have written a collection of letters to Christians and spiritual seekers who think deeply and care acutely about the state of the world and their personal spheres of influence. In Why Everything That Doesn't Matter, Matters So Much, beloved and trusted mentors, Charlie and Andi offer you: Thought-provoking explorations into the many facets of Christian culture care and making, from the kitchen to Carnegie Hall. Practical guidance for how to care for and improve the quality of human life, locally and globally, no matter your vocation. A theology of imagination and creativity that provides a framework for all of life. A model for expressing love in marriage, friendship, citizenship, and every kind of work—even in the midst of cynicism, fear, exhaustion, and oppression. It might be said of Christians that our lives are either moving in the direction of the redemption Jesus has on offer, or away from it. Each of these letters is a gentle nudge in the direction of God's powerfully ordinary purpose for each of us, no matter what the future holds, to participate fully in the beautiful, redemptive work of Christ.

Sermon on the Mount
Author: Scot McKnight
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310599016
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Emphasizing the historical distance between the New Testament and our contemporary culture, The Sermon on the Mount offers helpful contextual insights for those seeking to discern how to live out the Bible in today's world. This sermon is the moral portrait of Jesus' own people—yet the contrast between his vision and our lives is so stark that many theologians have tried to soften the demands it makes on us until it's been skewed beyond recognition in the minds of many Christians. The goal of this special volume of The Story of God Bible Commentary series is to investigate the Sermon on the Mount in light of the way Jesus meant it to be heard, requiring us to ask difficult questions about ethics, discipleship, and salvation. The first commentary series to do so, SGBC offers a clear and compelling exposition of biblical texts, guiding everyday readers in how to creatively and faithfully live out the Bible in their own contexts. Its story-centric approach is ideal for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and laypeople alike. Each volume employs three main, easy-to-use sections designed to help readers live out God's story: LISTEN to the Story: Includes complete NIV text with references to other texts at work in each passage, encouraging the reader to hear it within the Bible's grand story. EXPLAIN the Story: Explores and illuminates each text as embedded in its canonical and historical setting. LIVE the Story: Reflects on how each text can be lived today and includes contemporary stories and illustrations to aid preachers, teachers, and students. Edited by Scot McKnight and Tremper Longman III, and written by a number of top-notch theologians, The Story of God Bible Commentary series will bring relevant, balanced, and clear-minded theological insight to any biblical education or ministry.
