From Rubble to Redemption by Jim Jenkins Pdf

On September 11th, 2001, Jim Jenkins woke up to the nightmare that was 9/11. A few days later, he was headed for Ground Zero in his official capacity as a US Navy Chaplain. Deeply affected by what he experienced there, Jim has decided to share his story with the world as we approach the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Through his encounters with the victims’ families, political leaders like Rudy Giuliani, and celebrities like Elton John, Jim saw God show up in very unique and amazing ways during his time serving at Ground Zero. Jim’s primary message to America is that we must never forget. But Jim also wants his fellow Americans to know that God can bring redemption out of the rubble.

Rubble to Redemption by Thomas Mills Pdf

Buried beneath the rubble is a man who feels disconnected from God and doesn't know why, who is terrified of being vulnerable for fear of looking weak, who depends on his job for his sense of identity and worth, who resorts to passivity to avoid conflict with his wife and who struggles with addiction to numb his loneliness. Often we live life in survival mode with our busy lifestyles keeping us disconnected from God and others. Over time, the wrecking crew of isolation, shame, addiction, and passivity slowly demolishes our heart leaving us buried in the rubble. A true story of how God intervened in the life of one man, psychologist and author, Thomas Paul Mills at a ranch in Colorado in the fall of 2015.. The book explores his journey of uncovering the rubble that he and most men face in our world today. But it's not just his story. Rubble to Redemption is the story of every man. "Many men talk about life change, but very few actually experience it. Many men talk about doing something that God has put on their heart, but very few actually do it. Rubble to Redemption graciously sheds light on the assault against our heart and what God has provided for us to prevail. I experienced clarity, encouragement and strength through reading this book." -Gary Barkalow, Formerly with Ransomed Heart Ministries, Author of It's Your Call and Founder of The Noble Heart Ministry

This Is Not a Fighting Song by Meredith Holladay Pdf

It is through their music that the Indigo Girls build upon the theological idea of community-building and solidarity-forming, in order to tell the stories, to relate the authentic experience of human struggle and reconciliation, of human love and pain. Further, they work outward, convicted that their music and songwriting is an avenue to speak truth to power. All of this serves as theological reflection worked out in public and vocal forms of prophetic denunciation and proclamation. Their songs take on this prophetic tone of denunciation—speaking against oppression, inequality, and injustice. Moreover, their music does not remain complacent in the critique; through their songwriting they participate in prophetic proclamation—envisioning alternative ways of being, contributing to the collective imagination of contexts of equality, peace, and human freedom.

DEFA at the Crossroads of East German and International Film Culture by Marc Silberman,Henning Wrage Pdf

Motion picture production, distribution, exhibition and reception has always been a transnational phenomenon, yet East Germany, situated at the edge of the post-war Iron Curtain, separated by a boundary that became materialized in the Berlin Wall in 1961, resembles nothing if not an island, a protected space where film production developed under the protection of government subsidy and ideological purity. This volume proposes on the contrary that the GDR cinema was never just a monologue. Rather, its media landscape was characterized by constant dialogue, if not competition, with both the capitalist West and socialist East. These thirteen essays reshape DEFA cinema studies by exploring international networks, identifying lines of influence beyond national boundaries and recognizing genre qualities that surpass the temporal and spatial confines. The international team of film specialists present detailed analyses of over fifty films, including fiction features, adaptations of literary classics, children's films, documentaries, and examples from genres such as music, sci-fi, Westerns and crime films. With contributions by Seán Allan, Hunter Bivens, Benita Blessing, Barton Byg, Jaimey Fisher, Sabine Hake, Nick Hodgin, Manuel Köppen, Anke Pinkert, Larson Powell, Brad Prager, Marc Silberman, Stefan Soldovieri, andHenning Wrage.

Awakening by Steve Russell Pdf

In Matthew chapter 7, Jesus explains that in eternity, there will be many people who stand before Him and call Him, “Lord.” But He will tell them plainly, “I never knew you. Depart from me . . .” Nothing is more important during our time on the earth than to be sure that we know Jesus Christ personally. Awakening: Coming Out of Cold, Dead Religion and into a Relationship with the Living God is the story of Steve Russell, a third-generation preacher’s kid. Steve grew up going to church every Sunday. He prayed the sinner’s prayer. He was even baptized! But in his 40s, something truly amazing happened. He began to experience the Living God. Through those experiences, Steve’s eyes were opened. He came to realize that he had never truly known Jesus—all he had ever known was religion. Jesus invited Steve into a personal relationship, and Steve said yes. From the moment Steve made this decision, he began to live out one supernatural experience after another after another—all handiwork of the Living God! In Awakening, you’ll read about Steve’s near-death experience, his angelic visitation, miraculous healings, many supernatural answers to prayer, and all the other ways God begins to show up in a person’s life once they come into a personal relationship with Jesus. If you have been in church your whole life, but have never personally experienced a miracle, there’s a chance you need an awakening. If you’ve never seen the supernatural power of God manifest in your daily life, maybe it’s time to consider that an active, personal relationship with Jesus might be what’s missing—and it’s freely available to you right now!

Kabbalah and Literature by Kitty Millet Pdf

Focuses on a range of Jewish and non-Jewish writers to examine the intersection of Kabbalah, the Jewish mystical tradition, and secular Jewish literatures. Kabbalah and Literature shows how the Jewish mystical tradition contributes to the renewal of literature in a modern, global, and increasingly disconnected age. Kitty Millet explores Kabbalah's conceptual underpinnings, aesthetic principles, tenets, and signifiers to demonstrate how literature's absorption of kabbalistic material has altered its ontology, function, and the tasks it sets for itself. Reading writers from Europe and the Americas, Kitty Millet maps how the kabbalist's desire to "recover Eden" transforms into a latent messianic drive only intuitable through text. Thus it charts a journey of sorts, a migration of Jewish mystical material embedded surreptitiously within text in order to shift ever so slightly at times the range of the literary to encompass an aesthetic vision not easily reducible to the literal, the known, the allegorical, or even the philosophical. In this way, Kabbalah and Literature proposes a novel, intuitive approach, shifting focus away from the Jewish text's epistemological elements to embrace its "secrets."

Postwall German Cinema by Mattias Frey Pdf

Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, there has been a proliferation of German historical films. These productions have earned prestigious awards and succeeded at box offices both at home and abroad, where they count among the most popular German films of all time. Recently, however, the country's cinematic take on history has seen a significant new development: the radical style, content, and politics of the New German Cinema. With in-depth analyses of the major trends and films, this book represents a comprehensive assessment of the historical film in today's Germany. Challenging previous paradigms, it takes account of a postwall cinema that complexly engages with various historiographical forms and, above all, with film history itself.

Against Redemption by Franco Baldasso Pdf

Discloses the richness of ideas and sheds light on the controversy that characterized the transition from fascism to democracy, examining authors, works and memories that were subsequently silenced by Cold War politics. How a shared memory of Fascism and its cultural heritage took shape is still today the most disputed question of modern Italy, crossing the boundaries between academic and public discourse. Against Redemption concentrates on the historical period in which disagreement was at its highest: the transition between the downfall of Mussolini in July 1943 and the victory of the Christian Democrats over the Left in the 1948 general elections. By dispelling the silence around the range of opinion in the years before the ideological struggle fossilized into Cold War oppositions, this book points to early postwar literary practices as the main vehicle for intellectual dissent, shedding new light on the role of cultural policies in institutionalizing collective memory. During Italy’s transition to democracy, competing narratives over the recent traumatic past emerged and crystallized, depicting the country’s break with Mussolini’s regime as a political and personal redemption from its politics of exclusion and unrestrained use of violence. Conversely, outstanding authors such as Elsa Morante, Carlo Levi, Alberto Moravia, and Curzio Malaparte, in close dialogue with remarkable but now-neglected figures, stressed the cultural continuity between the new democracy and Fascism, igniting heated debates from opposite political standpoints. Their works addressed questions such as the working through of national defeat, Italian responsibility in World War II, and the Holocaust, revealing how the social, racial, and gender biases that characterized Fascism survived after its demise and haunted the newborn democracy.
