Our culture has been reeling from divisiveness and strife. People have been divided politically (into red and blue states), morally, and spiritually. How can you reach across these rifts, mend fractured relationships, and share the healing love of God? You can become a "purple" Christian-a follower of Christ who finds middle ground, not to compromise but to converse. A purple Christian... embodies the love of God and avoids evangelistic cliches, encourages creativity and the arts as expressions of God's goodness, revels in love and joy but also faces disappointment and doubt honestly advocates for all people, not only the unborn but also those lacking education and health care or struggling with poverty, helps all people experience the benefits of Christ's reign instead of determining who is "in" and who is "out". Christians have become known for what they oppose rather than what they propose-faith, hope, and love. A Purple State of Mind dismantles unhelpful misrepresentations of Jesus' life-giving message and shows how you can live out the good news in a pluralistic world. Book jacket.
This is poetry based on the concepts of nature, mythology, and indifferences of things we just donÕt understand. It will take you through the bad, good, and different aspects that we endure sometimes in life. This phenomenal world with its natural forces that control what happens on this planet we exist on, with things existing and changing on their own accord is really astounding. Imagine this natural world as it exists without human beings or civilization. Well we live in a natural system of existence, forces, and of all physical life that are not controlled by man. Life the big mystery, as it is difficult or impossible to understand or explain. Well as they say world without end, but all physical life shall die one day. We have no control or say about life and death as time and nature are totally in control. To the readers of poetry I hope you enjoy reading this collection of poetry and I hope it will be an imaginative experience and also enjoyable. Life the experience/remarkable. May God bless and enjoy.
Why We Love the Church by Kevin L. DeYoung,Ted A. Kluck Pdf
This book presents the case for loving the local church. It paints a picture of the local church in all its biblical and real life guts, gaffes, and glory in an effort to edify local congregations and entice the disaffected back to the fold. It also provides a solid biblical mandate to love and be part of the body of Christ and counteract the "leave church" books that trumpet rebellion and individual felt needs. Why We Love the Church is written for four kinds of people - the Committed, the Disgruntled, the Waffling & the Disconnected.
Philosophy of Mind and Phenomenology by Daniel O. Dahlstrom,Andreas Elpidorou,Walter Hopp Pdf
This volume identifies and develops how philosophy of mind and phenomenology interact in both conceptual and empirically-informed ways. The objective is to demonstrate that phenomenology, as the first-personal study of the contents and structures of our mentality, can provide us with insights into the understanding of the mind and can complement strictly analytical or empirically informed approaches to the study of the mind. Insofar as phenomenology, as the study or science of phenomena, allows the mind to appear, this collection shows how the mind can reappear through a constructive dialogue between different ways—phenomenological, analytical, and empirical—of understanding mentality.
A columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News, Nancy French blends her hilarious fish-out-of-water tale with humorous observations about the South's obsession with everything from church attendance to the blue-state notion that red staters think as slowly as they speak.

The Tides of Mind: Uncovering the Spectrum of Consciousness by David Gelernter Pdf
A “rock star” (New York Times) of the computing world provides a radical new work on the meaning of human consciousness. The holy grail of psychologists and scientists for nearly a century has been to understand and replicate both human thought and the human mind. In fact, it's what attracted the now-legendary computer scientist and AI authority David Gelernter to the discipline in the first place. As a student and young researcher in the 1980s, Gelernter hoped to build a program with a dial marked "focus." At maximum "focus," the program would "think" rationally, formally, reasonably. As the dial was turned down and "focus" diminished, its "mind" would start to wander, and as you dialed even lower, this artificial mind would start to free-associate, eventually ignoring the user completely as it cruised off into the mental adventures we know as sleep. While the program was a only a partial success, it laid the foundation for The Tides of Mind, a groundbreaking new exploration of the human psyche that shows us how the very purpose of the mind changes throughout the day. Indeed, as Gelernter explains, when we are at our most alert, when reasoning and creating new memories is our main mental business, the mind is a computer-like machine that keeps emotion on a short leash and attention on our surroundings. As we gradually tire, however, and descend the "mental spectrum," reasoning comes unglued. Memory ranges more freely, the mind wanders, and daydreams grow more insistent. Self-awareness fades, reflection blinks out, and at last we are completely immersed in our own minds. With far-reaching implications, Gelernter’s landmark "Spectrum of Consciousness" finally helps decode some of the most mysterious wonders of the human mind, such as the numinous light of early childhood, why dreams are so often predictive, and why sadism and masochism underpin some of our greatest artistic achievements. It’s a theory that also challenges the very notion of the mind as a machine—and not through empirical studies or "hard science" but by listening to our great poets and novelists, who have proven themselves as humanity's most trusted guides to the subjective mind and inner self. In the great introspective tradition of Wilhelm Wundt and René Descartes, David Gelernter promises to not only revolutionize our understanding of what it means to be human but also to help answer many of our most fundamental questions about the origins of creativity, thought, and consciousness.
The Purple and Blue Collection of Poems by Michael Thomas Pdf
From the first inept, but energetic, poetic attempts of a 14 year old boy to the controlled, but somewhat confused, verses of a 32 year old college student, this book is an emotional thrill ride that takes one from teenage lust to early middle age romanticism, from a near denial of the Christian religion to the ponderance of all life as religion, and from a seriousness in all human thought to a silliness that is the result of all this human thought. This is a simple book of poetry that anyone can read without feeling his/her sensiblities are being offended, yet in the juxtaposing of early poems to the late poems, one can realize that the poetry is not a simple process. Poetry, as it should, grows with us a we grow and this book poignantly and energetically shows the maturation of a man, a mind, and a poet.
