Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Same Ole builds a bridge of global voices to Something New. Starting out in a darkened chasm of Washington war chronicles, deficit leadership and warped values, the book crosses bridges crafted by artists' introspective songs of protest; then turns a full beam on five continents' unconventional thought and activism contributive to uprooting power entrenchment-uprooting the regressive is. At the heart of Same Ole or Something New is the belief that we can and must do better - the way it is wrong and it does not have to be this way. A world multifaceted in cultures, traditions and histories, issues and insight, experiences and contributions requires unconventional thought, multi-diverse input, consent and competence in a process of re-recreation. The regressive ¯is must be undone. Same Ole's second half brings light to global voices and ideas outside the mainstream, which are eminently capable of uprooting power entrenchment. They personify Something New.

Download or read book Same Old, Same New written by Mike Mason and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is so much of our existence so ordinary? Why this immense tract of stuff in our lives that seems to have no lofty purpose? In ninety short devotional chapters, Mike Mason meditates on this question, concluding that in fact everydayness, to the extent we embrace it, is a source of deep consolation. Far from being meaningless, the humdrum and the commonplace may actually hold the secret of life. Same Old, Same New—beautifully and provocatively written and full of arresting insights—will take your old tired world, stand it on end, and spin it like a top. “Mike Mason straddles two worlds, the quotidian and the eternal. Of course those two worlds aren’t separate worlds at all—and the reality of that intermingling, that co-existence of the mundane and the mystical, is perhaps the recurrent theme of Mason’s writing.” ~Ron Reed, Founding Artistic Director of Pacific Theatre

Book excerpt: This book is written with Christians principally in mind, folks whose spiritual life has been nurtured by the sacraments. The Christians I have in mind are also seeking a practical way to enter more deeply into the sacred mystery of the divine presence on a daily basis in their walk-about lives. The sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, Penance and Eucharist are considered from the viewpoint of the method they reveal for developing an habitual state of mind and heart that gives entry into a deeper daily connection with the mysterious presence of the divine in all things.

Download or read book The Little Book of Better Questions written by Robert Colacurcio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without a question to hook onto an answer, even profound information can just breeze on by. From his previous six books, all of which explore diff erent aspects for how to deepen in the spirit, the author has selected about 90 of the most provocative questions. Th ese are grouped into three parts: 1) the good beginning 2) the good middle and 3) the good end.. Lots of space on the page between questions is meant to encourage refl ection and perhaps a written note, because the author believes that it is not the quantity of information that satisfi es one’s soul, but the quality and depth one achieves by going deeper following those questions that truly engage the heart. Th e author calls question like this “pathfi nder questions.” Good questions lead to good answers, better questions to better answers, and really good questions lead to superlatively good answers. He hopes that every reader will engage at least one superlatively good question that will, in eff ect, become a path to follow to ever greater spiritual abundance.

Download or read book Life is Motivation written by Connor LaRocque and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-12-12 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fact is that life truly is motivation. You have a choice to get up in the morning as you do to stay within the comfort of your bed. We as individuals must understand that the choices we make today, dictate the future. We can never go back in a moment because nothing lasts forever. This is why it is our job to control our mentality, promoting a positive, unstoppable mindset. Always remember, that at the end of the day even after you believe you have given it everything you have, you can always get more from your body. It's evident that we are unable to control external factors within our lives but what we can control are the internal factors such as our attitude and perception on any given situation. It is our job in this lifetime to face our fears and let nothing stop us from achieving anything we desire. Live your life with a plan of action, fear nothing and this world is yours for the taking. If all doesn't work out switch your strategy and come back full force.
