Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White supremacy and racialized violence have animated much of society and church in the United States. Many people of goodwill are grasping for what to do in the face of such broad-reaching and painful wounds. From tracing the emergence of the modern concept of race to observing the evolution of Confederate monuments, Listening as Hosts: Liturgically Facing Colonization and White Supremacy crafts a picture of these historical dynamics and seeks to offer forms of liturgical resistance for churches and spiritual communities. Pastors, spiritual leaders, churches, and people of no faith at all will find invitations to listen deeply, to discard oppressive expressions of Christianity, and to search for community with one another and with the earth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sacred Anointing:Yours! There are aspects of God’s anointing that are rarely addressed and often overlooked. The Sacred Anointing shows you the possibilities of walking in and experiencing this anointing. Full of personal experiences and wonderful miracles, you will find yourself on an exciting journey from “head knowledge” to an “experiential knowing” of how to move in God’s precious anointing. You will undoubtedly notice an increase in the activity of God’s glory in your life. Author and well known minister, Steven Brooks’s dramatic testimony of being homeless and living out of a cardboard box to being delivered from poverty and entrusted with an international ministry is challenging and inspiring. The anointing made a radical difference in his life—and can do the same for you. The Sacred Anointing explores new paths with courage and grace to challenge modern-day flaws in the Church. This is your connection with the large and growing new group of unsatisfied believers who have been in church for years but have never felt fulfilled in their spirit.

Download or read book Jane Campion written by Hilary Radner and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An innovative collection of original essays on Jane Campion, renowned female auteur filmmaker. In Jane Campion: Cinema, Nation, Identity a diverse group of contributors challenge the view that Campion's body of work lacks coherence or unity to instead examine the important characteristics and themes that underlie it. Editors Hilary Radner, Alistair Fox, and Irène Bessière have compiled rich, original scholarship on Campion's oeuvre to probe issues previously neglected by scholars--like her debt to New Zealand sources and her personal views of family dynamics--and those that benefit from additional insight--such as her place in the feminist filmmaking tradition. This volume also investigates Campion's distinct cinematic style in light of these issues to examine the source of her enduring cross-cultural and international appeal. Contributors in the first section explore the creation of subjectivity and identity in Campion's films, which include well-known works like The Piano and Holy Smoke, to trace the unique perspectives of Campion's characters and Campion herself as director. In the second section, essays analyze Campion's close relationship with literature and argue that the singular vision in her literary adaptations stems from her New Zealand background and her personal mythology. Contributors in the third section argue that while Campion devotes considerable attention to the evocation of feminine internal space, she also uses the symbolic potential of her external physical locations to register what is taking place in the inner life of her characters and reflect their search for personal fulfillment. A final group of essays presents a variety of responses to Campion's films, demonstrating that Campion is a highly personal and idiosyncratic director who nonetheless manages to fascinate viewers across a broad cultural spectrum. Taken together, contributors in Jane Campion: Cinema, Nation, Identity present a compelling analysis of Campion's status as a leading female filmmaker with close attention to her distinctive cinematic style and particular mise-en-scène. The collective nature of this volume will appeal to students and teachers of film, literature, and gender studies, as well as fans of Campion's work.
