Paperback. Condition: New. The infancy narratives are complex texts that tell us more than one may think about who Jesus is and what relationship we are invited to have with him. The reflections in the book are linked to five themes: Jesus's ancestors; Joseph, son of Jacob, father of Jesus; Mary the prophetess, mother of Jesus; the relationship between Nazareth, Jesus's hometown, and Bethlehem, the place of his birth. Finally, the fifth reflection focuses directly on Jesus himself and the moment of his birth.A careful reading of the biblical texts allows the reader to fully discover the relationship between God and the human person. Through understanding the plots, characters, and places described in the Bible, readers can uncover the meaning of the Scriptures for their life, beyond simply explaining the literal meaning of the text.A Child Born for Us is a guide for the reader, individual, or group seeking to deepen their understanding of the Gospel narratives of the infancy of Jesus.Rev.

Paperback. Condition: New. While many books explore the Gospel, few tackle so directly and thoroughly the foundational question: Why are there four accounts instead of one? This book doesn't just accept the presence of the four books-it explains why they matter."Legend has it that St Thomas Aquinas said, 'hominem unius libri timeo' ('I fear the person of a single book'). The authors show that expounding our faith through a plurality of accounts and images has profound roots in the Old Testament.This delight in the richness of plural visions-propelling us towards transcendent and radiant truths-is a special gift at a time when society and even the Church are sundered by divisions and even polarization."-from the foreword by Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, OP"This book is not simply to be read and then put aside. Read it, read it with others, reflect and pray over the contents of each chapter, answer the questions personally and in a group. The beauty and depth of the Word is an unlimited wealth and will unfold as you continue to ponder, reflect, and discuss."-from the foreword by Cardinal Stephen Brislin, archbishop of JohannesburgRev.

Paperback. Condition: New. Recollections of an Unsuccessful Seaman was written in 1928/1929 by George Leonard Noake, who wanted to keep himself occupied for the rest of his days after learning of his incurable illness from which he died, aged 42 years, in 1929. Born in 1887, he joined the nautical training establishment, H.M.S. Conway, in 1903 and then served an apprenticeship at sea until 1908 when his detailed memoirs commence with him sailing as a second officer in the European/West African trade. After going ashore to work on a farm between 1913 and 1915, he returned to the mercantile marine in 1915 during the First World War to sail in a number of ships carrying horses, grain and coal. He survived not only being torpedoed in the English Channel, but also making 112 trips between England and Europe on a ship carrying war materials. Subsequently joining one of the largest tankers in the world, he endured a hazardous passage without a naval escort through the Channel to Rosyth to deliver safely the precious oil cargo before hostilities ended. The narrative of his wartime experiences are both harrowing and humorous. The tanker continued to trade in peacetime between Mexico and South America before eventually returning to Hull, where he signed-off to see his family after being away for seven months. War reparations had him travelling out to the East as a passenger to sail as second officer on board a German vessel bound for Europe, where the Depression after the war gave him no hope for further seagoing employment. Borrowing money from a relative in 1921 he bought into a farm before becoming a haulage contractor. On the verge of bankruptcy in 1923, he escaped his creditors by joining a ship bound for Australia as a quartermaster. Luck was on his side and upon his return home, he became master of a `Glasgow Puffer' that had been converted to carry oil. He remained in the employ of the National Benzole Company to take command of three coastal tankers before accepting work as a chief officer on a ship trading in the Mediterranean. His seagoing career as a chief officer ended in 1927 when he was diagnosed with tuberculosis. Readers of this poignant portrayal of life in the 1900s, not only at sea but also ashore, will be thoroughly entertained and moved by the author's experiences and humour. Leonard Noake was undoubtedly a true character, a person who enjoyed more than a tipple or two, a strong supporter of the fledgling unions being born in that era and an unrelenting critic of shipping magnates and their shareholders. The last chapter of the book has been published without correction or editing to permit the reader to make his/her own judgement of Len, his heartfelt style of writing and his passionately held beliefs. .…
