Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. It's conventional to believe that there is a seed planted in all humankind prompting the seeking out of a deity. Therefore, although religion may not be in the forefront of people's lives, it is certainly somewhere in the background or around the corner in everyone's life, and for this reaso…n these pages have relevance. But to better understand the contemporary church and the Christian faith that it represents, it is necessary to first look at the past, study the biblical and extra-biblical evidence, and be willing to venture out beyond the comfort zone of accumulated church orthodoxy to critically examine this faith. The church has been revered through the centuries and embodies the grandest hopes that our hearts cling to. The church's effigy is prestigious with bell towers chiming the reverence and organs resounding the sanctity. So ageless, immutable, and perpetually the church perseveres; an edifice on high ground ensconced and securely sheltered behind its doctrines, creeds, and saints; settled snuggly behind the stained glass on its pious pedestal, an awe-inspiring passing image revered by most through a lifetime of reverent glances. Perish the thought however that the church would function only as a church family social organization, or that the extent of any church worship service would consist only of such things as an ego-boosting vehicle of fashion or for uplifting spirits, prepared musical and impressive individual prayer performances, or a stage from which to strut a pulpit performance or other prepared production. The church pedestal however, on which rests the Christian faith's higher ideals, esteem, and respect, seems to have been markedly lowered from what it once was. We seem to be becoming a worldlier and more secular nation less bound by good morals and religious principles. This is due in part by the external societal changes, but also the internal causes within the church. These pages look for some of the reasons why. One Sunday morning after going to church I finally got around to asking myself, "What's wrong here; what's wrong with my Christian faith? What parts of it do I really accept with conviction? It is probably certain that we can never know the exact nature of our Christian faith, but probably just as certain is the fact that we can and should know the facts better than what has been disseminated by the church, and this is not acceptable. In addition, and even with the best of intentions, many eager evangelistic motivated church leaders use an emotional presentation while quoting scripture out of context and finding imaginary secondary meanings for it to make their point. This type of exorbitant fast and loose use of the scripture over time also lessens the credibility of the faith. Through remedial satire and dramatic monologue expression, this book holds a mirror up reflecting this less acceptable image of the past and present Christian experience. It should be emphasized that reverence to God and Christ Jesus are held to be preeminent and above reproach, and this remedial satirical quest is not about Christ Jesus' actual Christology. It is however about some of the church's adopted dogma, practices, and methods, its rather sordid early historic record, and the serving of its own self-interests at the expense of the integrity of the authentic Christology of the Christian faith, the primary reason for its existence. The book takes us in search of a more reasonable, tolerant, and responsible Christian faith that affords more integrity and conviction. Although not presumed as providing conclusive answers or as a critique on the Christian Church orthodoxy, it is intended to provoke thought, engender tolerance and a well-earned sense of humility, and perhaps even reason enough for re-examining our faith. To say that God is still working on us and that we have not quite yet reach Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Every generation has its own unique story to tell, especially about its early childhood years. These are the formative years when lifelong impressions are formed, and are dearly remembered as the good old days. These stories are about the families of the Great Depression and World War II gen…eration during the 30's and 40's decades. It is generally the period of the labor intensive low technology era before the beginning of the rapidly developing high technology society that would follow. It's said that out of the mouths of babes come truth and wisdom, and perhaps it's these perceptions that most reliably reveal those simpler yet challenging times. In these adult historic fiction stories the true emotions and concerns of the families are told, but as reflected through the eyes and innocence of the children. Freckles, the little girl from East Hollow, and Buddy, the little boy from the City Limits had much in common due to the similar life experiences of those of the generation of these stories. They had their carefree days at play with vivid imaginations and outrageous adventures, but they also had the responsibility of doing their chores and becoming a contributing member of the family. They may have been naive, having a lot to learn about life; yet they exhibit in these stories a development of understanding, and the advancing maturity that was necessitated by the times. It was a period when the people's greatest concerns were centered in their own town, on their own street, or in their own backyard so to speak. These concerns were about such things as finding a job, making a living, raising a crop in a terrible and seemingly unending drought, and just finding a way for the family to survive during the terrible economic depression. Nevertheless it was a quiet period of innocence and mutual concern for each other. Everyone was just hanging on as best they could, but with an eternal optimism about the hope for better times to come. Generally people didn't have much, but appreciated what they had and learned how to be frugal due to the dire necessity. People had a strong work ethic and desire to improve their social standing and economic condition. It was a time when men were the wage earners and women were the homemakers and both were proud of their respective roles. Women cultivated their cooking, sewing, child raising, and other domestic skills, and the time was not yet passed when men were proud of their hunting, fishing, and other outdoor prowess. These skills, in addition to their regular work skills, were useful in supplementing their table fare, especially when jobs could not be found. People learned to become as self-sufficient as they could be, but they were often mutually dependent upon each other and quite willing to lend a helping hand. Home gardens were common as were the keeping of cows, chickens, and other domestic sources of food and supplies. Women did a lot of canning, mending, and sewing while the men took care of the home repairs and other pressing matters. The wives and children also helped with all the additional chores that were to be done, and often sought part time ways to supplement the family income. After the country was thrown into WWII, things started to get better. Everyone was very patriotic and tried to do their part to support the war effort. They understood and accepted the rationing, military draft, blackouts, shortages, and other inconveniences. People bought war bonds, made victory gardens, participated in paper drives, and collected metal to be used in the manufacture of war goods. Their sons gallantly went off to serve their country and their daughters did their part at home, sometimes taking the jobs left behind by the men that went off to war. The childhood memories of the generation of these stories may now be no more than a dream remembered for some, but the legac Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A religious faith is a fundamental human quality, and many Christians try to relate to it better, but it often seems so dated and detached. Dedicated church leaders look for ways to make it more appealing, but generally have been hesitant about presenting Christ Jesus' humanity and Jewish he…ritage, and how His original teachings were later affected during those turbulent historic times and by the expanding church. It is natural for Christians to question and refine their religious convictions and to pray that their adopted beliefs are acceptable in His sight. It is assumed that most Christians have at least a cursory understanding of the New Testament. The many available historical accounts, by Josephus, Tacitus, and others and the many non-canonized religious accounts written by such notable 'Church Fathers' as Clement, Eusebius and many others, have been rather ignored; regarding them as insignificant, and consequently requiring a greater demand on our faith. Whoever Jesus was, however, and whatever he stood for must be reconciled against the backdrop of the spectacle of His time. The mission of this book is to employ these additional valuable resources to fill this void and provide this compelling new insight to invigorate and reinforce the Christian faith- raising it to a higher level of integrity and confidence while adding vitality and visceral emotions- i.e. breathing new life into it by stepping into the first century environment with Jesus and those that followed after Him.The miracle of Christ Jesus, the messiah, mediator before God, and an instrument of our salvation is upheld and paramount, even though an alternate view of certain aspects of the Christian orthodoxy are felt necessary to more faithfully reflect our faith in the light of the original historic record and the subsequent expanded church dogma. This unique presentation provides a fresh and more eye-opening look at our Christian foundation of faith. Scriptural references, Roman and Jewish historical accounts, and other non-canonized religious scrolls by the Essenes and early 'Church Fathers' are integrally woven in as this first century life of Christ story and the apostles' evangelism are told. This more encompassing perspective also helps to reconcile many of the more striking scriptural enigmas that are commonly encountered. Little has been revealed about Jesus' early life before His three year public ministry - His family, His tumultuous historic environment, and His Jewish upbringing. The paramount question for any Christian in this regard is how these factors, together with God's magnificent intervention in Christ Jesus' life, ultimately influenced His teachings. We will be seeking the answer to this question. Over the recent centuries many Life of Christ stories have been written. Some of these, such as The Greatest Story Ever Told, Quo Vadis, and many others have received the church's sanction, but such many others as The Last Temptation of Christ and The Brook Kerith have been labeled as blasphemous. These are all popular and intriguing stories and illustrate a Christian's desire to know more. Later in the first century, Christ Jesus' followers must have begun to question themselves. This was when the Gospels were being written amidst all the national turmoil, their own fading memories, and the controversies regarding the many diverging and competing Jewish, Christian, and pagan Gentile beliefs. Today, twenty centuries later, Christians are still faced with this same problem, but a better understanding is attainable with the insight these extra-Biblical and historic resources can provide. So this is the life story of Christ Jesus and his Christology (Part I), which is followed by the Gospel about Jesus (Part II), which is the interpretation of His Christology as gathered from the impressions of his first generation followers, Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. They thought it couldn't happen to them in their sleepy little insignificant community quietly nestled in our nation's heartland; but it did. Imagine the tranquility of a rural Midwest setting suddenly shattered by the intrusion of Islamic terrorists, with their conscription of illegal alien… Mexican forces, as they attempt to launch stolen missiles and carry out a ruthless terrorist plot. In this story, characters of contrasting lifestyles are involved as a former romance is rekindled, a loved one succumbs of cancer, and as the terrorist threat gradually unfolds. There may be a time for everything in life's passing seasons, but the disruption caused by the impending terrorist attack was unthinkable. A handsome young hi-tech corporate executive, being transferred back to the area, and an attractive small town college instructor are the leading characters, supported by other strong characters in the roles of a retired judge, a retired history teacher, a retired minister, and a couple of Vietnam vets. After a few weeks of mysterious occurring events all mayhem breaks out in an Ozark national forest as the military and various Federal security agencies are deployed to defeat the threat and avoid a disaster of major national proportions. The action-filled scenes come alive with high-tech military weapons, surveillance equipment, and dialogue, as a local news helicopter is shot down by a shoulder-fired surface to air missile, and then escalates from there in the thoroughly engaging scenes that follow. The story however is much more than just a love story or military action thriller. It is a human interest story about maturing adults and how lives and perspectives naturally change during the normal life junctures. Some adult lifestyles are exciting, others mundane; from younger vigorous persons seeking romance and excitement to elders spending their last years in assisted living facilities and nursing homes. These various lifestyles and the perspectives of the characters are revealed throughout on common subjects ranging from religion to politics and including such other topics as historical accounts, the environment, and various other social issues. Despite their occasional personal life storms, these are the contented and serene lifestyles that are rudely interrupted as the terrorist induced life-threatening circumstances come crashing down around them.
