Waiting in Christian Traditions
Author: Joanne Robinson
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739189409
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Christians wait for prayers to be answered, for an afterlife in heaven, for the Virgin Mary to appear, and for God to speak. They wait to be liberated from oppression, to be “saved” or born again, for Easter morning to dawn, for healing, for conversion, and for baptism. Waiting and the disappointment and hope that often accompany it are explained in terms that are, at first glance, remarkably invariant across Christian traditions: what will happen will happen “on God’s time.” A study of sources from across Christian traditions shows that there is considerable complexity beneath this surface claim. Understandings of free will and personal agency alongside shifts in institutional and theological commitments change the ways waiting is understood and valued. Waiting is often considered a positive state to be endured as long as God wills, and that fundamental understanding helps keep the promises at the heart of Christianity alive. Scholars have long overlooked the problem and promise of waiting despite (or perhaps because of) its prevalence. Indeed, there are relatively few mystics, few who have undergone “sudden” conversion, and few who have attained saintly status. Many, however, have waited, and that problem remains prominent—and its solutions remain influential—in Christian traditions today.

Can't Wait to Get to Heaven
Author: Fannie Flagg
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1588366197
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
Combining southern warmth with unabashed emotion and side-splitting hilarity, Fannie Flagg takes readers back to Elmwood Springs, Missouri, where the most unlikely and surprising experiences of a high-spirited octogenarian inspire a town to ponder the age-old question: Why are we here? Life is the strangest thing. One minute, Mrs. Elner Shimfissle is up in her tree, picking figs, and the next thing she knows, she is off on an adventure she never dreamed of, running into people she never in a million years expected to meet. Meanwhile, back home, Elner’s nervous, high-strung niece Norma faints and winds up in bed with a cold rag on her head; Elner’s neighbor Verbena rushes immediately to the Bible; her truck driver friend, Luther Griggs, runs his eighteen-wheeler into a ditch–and the entire town is thrown for a loop and left wondering, “What is life all about, anyway?” Except for Tot Whooten, who owns Tot’s Tell It Like It Is Beauty Shop. Her main concern is that the end of the world might come before she can collect her social security. In this comedy-mystery, those near and dear to Elner discover something wonderful: Heaven is actually right here, right now, with people you love, neighbors you help, friendships you keep. Can’t Wait to Get to Heaven is proof once more that Fannie Flagg “was put on this earth to write” (Southern Living), spinning tales as sweet and refreshing as iced tea on a summer day, with a little extra kick thrown in.

Book Description
THERE JUST HAS TO BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS! YOU VERY WELL MAY HAVE THOUGHT THIS OR EVEN SPOKEN IT ALOUD If you are searching for academic theology, this is not the place! If instead you are looking for permanent, fulfilling, even life altering relationships, feel free to explore.

Inside you can discover: * How to look for love in all the right places * When to select a different exit than one first considered * Where to locate the greatest tat (tattoo) of all time * Why what youve always done often isnt the best decision * That you have the right to choose what you want to believe * That God does not love anyone more than He loves you * The source for seemingly insoluble dilemma You may recall that insanity has been defined as doing what you have always done and expecting a different result. Do you see a necessary change on your horizon?

THE 256 ODU OF IFA VOL. 97 Otura MejiI-Otura Ogbe
Author: MARCELO MADAN
Publisher: Madan Orunmila Edition Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
These Treatises of the Odu of Ifá in volumes, are very complete, since In addition to treating the Afro-Cuban Odu de Ifá, they also contain Traditional African Ifá treatises. Both gather thousands of Pataki or Histories, thousands of Eboses and works, which will make it easier for you to deepen your study and solve any situation that arises in the religious field of consulting the Ifa oracle. The Synthesis of the Treaties of the Odu of Ifá already published by me previously, is nothing more than as its name indicates, a synthesis of these treaties, whose objective was always to support to the Babalawo as a handy pocket reminder, based on the fact that it has been studied and deepened before in the study of these volumes which will lead you to have the most complete knowledge about Ifá. For these reasons, it is highly recommended to have this valuable information in your library. We have grouped only two Odu per book, to make it as cheap as possible and facilitate its acquisition.
