Telling Stories
Author: Cartledge Tony
Publisher: Smyth & Helwys Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1573125156
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
In telling stories, Jesus often used imagination and metaphor, pulling attention-grabbing stories and images from the air. He asked his hearers to imagine someone who could examine a speck in another's eye while a plank protruded from his own, or to visualize a great camel squeezing through the eye of a needle. He spoke of a despised Samaritan who showed unexpected compassion and a bigger-barn-building landowner who thought only of himself. Jesus' hearers understood that the characters and events in those memorable stories didn't have to be real in order for the stories to be true. In his preaching experience of nearly forty years, Tony Cartledge, like many other preachers, has often told creative stories as an avenue for capturing the attention and engaging the minds of those listening to the message he was called upon to bring. His latest book, Telling Stories, contains a smorgasbord of stories and scripts that range from the possible to the fantastic, along with one that really happened. They include original stories in folktale style and monologues or dialogues designed to illuminate biblical characters. All of these stories are designed to inspire those who proclaim Christ to effectively utilize good stories in their own preaching.

Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
While many feel that something must be done, few perceive the state of the ecological crisis as a "profound religious problem." While Thomas Berry sought to fire the imagination and motivate his listener to action, Bernard Lonergan was absorbed by the growing gulf between traditional Christian theology and its relevance to modern problems. This book brings together the work of these dynamic thinkers and examines their mutual contribution to theology for our time and for our planet.

If the Chakras Had a Voice:
Author: Ira Rechtshaffer Ph.D.
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1663257388
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
This highly original work breathes life into each of the seven chakras and creatively transforms them into living entities with whom we can engage in conversation. Each chakra is a specific energy center and represents a state of awareness and a level of personal development. The chakra system is a map of personal transformation that can be used to discover how and where we get stuck in our development, and how we can liberate ourselves from these places so that our spiritual journey continues to evolve. Through dialogue with each of the chakras, you will learn how to befriend every part of yourself, even the shadowy parts, and cultivate your creativity, intuition, and deepen your awareness. The chakra system provides an ideal framework for doing this, as it addresses both our issues and our gifts. Such an integrated process can reconnect us with our lives as a whole. This book invites you into a new and expanded perspective for how to understand and creatively work with your body, heart, and mind in order to become all that you can be.
