The Enchanting Adventures of Christian Nature by James A. Rousseau Jr. Pdf

Imagine living in a God-created heart in the world of your imagination. Imagine living in a world where the Holy Spirit, seen allegorically in the person of the beautiful patience of Christian Nature, lovingly and tenderly seeks to fill every nook and cranny of your heart with the beauty that only the Holy Spirit through Christian Nature can provide. Imagine living in a world where each citizen, like a cherished and highly valued goblet, is filled to overflowing with enchanted golden drops of comfort to freely pour upon everyone whom their lives may touch. Imagine living in a world where each citizen places their cup filled with goodness to the parched, dry lips of the weary traveler who has not tasted the refreshing drops of kindness for a long time and, in so doing, restoring life to that previously hardened person who was on the verge of losing his life to a thirst for goodness in a hardened world. Is this the kind of world in which you would like to live? Sounds nice, you may say. But this is not real life! The purpose of this literary endeavor, the reason for this story, is to reveal to each reader that this world is real. It really does exist! It exists in our own God-created heart; and the Holy Spirit, who has filled it with the beauty of Christian Nature, lovingly invites you to live here as a cherished citizen for all the days of the enchanted adventure of your life!

Golden Drops of Comfort by James A. Rousseau Jr. Pdf

An invasion of supernatural “other worldly” beings has exploded into this world with one purpose in mind. They have come to be used by God, Jesus Christ, to be a blessing to the inhabitants of a world that seems to be bent on bringing about its own destruction. They are so consumed and filled to overflowing with golden drops of the comfort of who they are that they are willing to sacrifice their own lives out of a love for us in order that we may see the love that Jesus Christ has for us. The question is, do we have eyes to see these “other worldly” beings who are all around us everyday? Maybe if we will look through the eye-gate of our heart we may see them more clearly. There is enduring “Kindness” looking for ways to pour out the golden drops of comfort of who she is upon us to help us in our time of need. There is the unending stamina of beautiful “Joy” bringing the golden drops of who she is and pouring this joy upon us in our time of need. Then we find the strength of “Gentleness” sharing her gentle touch of love upon a cold, hard, and cruel world. As these “other worldly” beings shower their golden drops of comfort upon us how will we receive them? Will we embrace them and allow them to introduce us to Jesus Christ, or will we seek to crucify them and have nothing to do with them? The choice is ours!

The Purity of Generosity by James A. Rousseau Jr. Pdf

If we are looking for a reason to prove why we exist, if we are looking for a real purpose in our lives, maybe we should ask God to, “Please, use us in some way to be of a help to those in need.” Could it be that, as people lift their discouraged voices to God to send someone to help them, that God is hearing their prayers, answering them, and sending you, to be used by God to meet their financial needs? We each have a purpose in life. This could be yours! Many Christians really do want their lives to bring glory to God before they depart this world and go to heaven. They are very grateful for all that God has given to them. They want their very short journey in this world to count for God, to glorify God, and be of benefit to others. The words of missionary Jim Elliott rings loud and true in their hearts when he said, “He is no fool to give what he cannot keep in order to gain what he cannot lose.” Their daily prayer to God is that He would use their lives, in some way, to bring glory to Himself and benefit to those in great need. Maybe their banner verse comes from Matthew 5:16 which says, “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father in heaven.” If this is the sort of person you would like to be, then this story is about you. It’s about everyone who really, truly, deep in their hearts, want to be used by God to help others in their time of need.

The Image of Man in C. S. Lewis by William Luther White Pdf

It is in the role of remythologizer that C. S. Lewis has been most misunderstood, and it is there that his importance lies. His was the poetic intensity that saw all hell swallowed by a butterfly with no harm done. Of his creation are allegories and myth that express very real elements of life behond understanding or capture for more than a moment. White's 1969 study is the first to examine the entire Lewis corpus and the first to offer such an extensive bibliography. To these invaluable aids for Lewis scholars, White adds his own training in theology and literary criticism and a sensitivity to the complexities of the artist and the religious man. His interpretation of the intricate skeins of belief to be found in Lewis' work make this study as significant to the theological as to the literary world.

The Enchanting Encounter with the East by Michael Baizerman Pdf

“The Enchanting Encounter with the East” belongs to cross-cultural studies and focuses on the attempts of European literati to get acquainted with the bizarre realm of the Far East during the Late Middle Ages. It turns out that western intellectuals lured by the marvels and myths of the Far East did a lot of spadework before taking a route that led to unfamiliar oriental realms. On this thorny path, many Eurocentric medieval fantasies had been debunked. The book shows how global connections had surfaced centuries before industrialization. The book falls into the genre of non-fiction history and centers on the recognition of lands and cultures of India, China, and the Mongols by the Latin medieval society. The storyline is based on the original online research and presents authentic arguments based on the author’s engagement with the sources. The readers might enjoy as well as profit from this comprehensive reference that does not require deep background knowledge. The content is provided in clear language and is supplemented with a bibliography and illustrations that will enrich the entire work.

Re-enchanting Christianity by Dave Tomlinson Pdf

Dave Tomilinson is author of "The Post Evangelical", a seminal book which acknowledged the disenchantment with simplistic approaches to faith experienced by many evangelicals. Many, locked into interpretations of Christianity that they can no longer accept, have given up on the Church altogether. But is re-enchantment possible in our post-modern, post-Christian age?Re-enchantment is not a return to credulity or an attempt to recapture lost innocence, but it is finding a realistic faith that reconciles heart and head, that offers a positive, engaging spirituality, that is unafraid of grappling honestly with difficult questions.

Courage and Grace by James A. Rousseau Jr. Pdf

Your author has written this story with the hope that, maybe, as you near the end of your very short journey called “life,” this book may become a real treasure to you, a sort of best friend, to help you through your difficult times. May this book become like a golden key, which will come, from time-to-time, and unlock those heavy doors that seem to lock us into our very own internal prison cell. Perhaps you are familiar with the horrible names of this real-life, internal, prison cell that has entombed so many with its iron bars. As we walk by it, we see the horrible names of “Fear, “Doubt,” “Discouragement,” “Depression,” and “Disappointment” inscribed on its walls. The primary purpose of this story is to provide the readers with a way, a real, legitimate way, to keep themselves out of this horrific cell that has become the final resting place for so many millions of people.

Remnant Christianity in a Post-Christian World by W. Paul Jones Pdf

The contemporary Christian church is in critical decline, both in membership and finances. All attempts at reversal are failing, primarily because of the consuming socioeconomic-secular dynamic in which society is immersed in its self-destructive course. Consequently, Christian imagery is losing its conceivability and credibility, and past motivations that once encouraged belief have lost their appeal. Without these as points of contact, the demise of the institutional church will be relentless, despite all efforts to halt it. Yet, as at other crisis points in history, the divine promise has been to raise a “faithful remnant” with sufficient promise to outlast whatever the societal demise. After carefully analyzing the ingredients of our societal crisis, the author develops the contours of a “Remnant Church” to be set in place now within the present institutional churches. This necessitates distilling a vital spirituality and discerning the heart of a preservable tradition, sufficient to claim both personal and communal commitment. Thereby prepared for the long haul, the Remnant Church can emerge as a prophetic alternative.

Turkey Travel Adventures by Samantha Lafferty Pdf

If, like me, you are a bit tired of the ethnocentric social commentary that seems to come with certain well known guidebooks then you could do worse than try this one. Simple to use, well written and accurate, I found it invaluable and couldn't fault any of its recommendations nor descriptions. -- Yurt (Amazon reviewer) Turkey is so diverse it could almost be described as a continent rather than a country. In the west, mountains and pine forests frame a staggeringly beautiful coastline. The central steppe has the peculiar rock churches and underground cities of Cappadocia and the cosmopolitan capital of Ankara. In the east, there are biblical rivers, a fabled mountain and haunting cities and palaces. Then, there is the magnetism of Istanbul. Turkey s location straddles Asia and Europe. The three great Empires that ruled the country for thousands of years left a legacy of enchanting cultures and more ancient sites than even Italy or Greece can boast. Major areas dealt with in the guide include Istanbul, Thrace and Marmara, the Aegean Coast, the Mediterranean Coast, Central Anatolia, Cappadocia, the Black Sea Coast. Covered in detail for each area are where to stay, where to eat, shopping, sightseeing and adventures, both cultural and physical from walking in the footsteps of St. Paul to joining in the local festivals, from yoga and Turkish baths to art classes and cooking courses. This guide combines in-depth text information with color maps & photos on almost every page. Existing guides are largely text-only or mostly graphics and lacking the practical details travelers need. Photos and maps throughout. Print edition is 688 pages

In Defense of Sentimentality by Robert C. Solomon Pdf

Philosophy has as much to do with feelings as it does with thoughts and thinking. Philosophy, accordingly, requires not only emotional sensitivity but an understanding of the emotions, not as curious but marginal psychological phenomena but as the very substance of life. In this, the second book in a series devoted to his work on the emotions, Robert Solomon presents a defense of the emotions and of sentimentality against the background of what he perceives as a long history of abuse in philosophy and social thought and art and literary criticism. The title piece reopens a classic debate about the role of sentimentality in art and literature. In subsequent chapters, Solomon discusses not only such "moral sentiments" as sympathy and compassion but also grief, gratitude, love, horror, and even vengeance. He also defends, with appropriate caution, the "seven deadly sins." The emotions, at least some emotions--are essential to a well-lived life. They are or can be virtues, features of the human condition without which civilized life would be unimaginable.
