This book is an exotic account of some important religious places in India garnished with a collection of fascinating mythological anecdotes and ancient saga of valor, romance, and penance that are embedded in the timeline of this enigmatic country. The history of India is marked by arrival of various invaders from faraway land. Their presence and actions have been important guiding force for the religious beliefs to emerge and faiths to manifest in this country. Also Indias own history that dates back to several thousand years is a repository of remarkable episodes and vast spiritual knowledge submerged in a sea of ignorance. It is for this reason that the author chose to relate the various places of his visit to historical sequence of events and ancient anecdotes in an effort to enhance the significance and sanctity of these places that are often ignored. Readers of all ages and from all across the globe will find it extremely captivating while reading this documentary as it journeys through the different provinces of the country that is so diversified and distinctive yet inseparably interwoven by the invisible thread of faith.
Today's neurological research has placed habit at the center of human behavior; we are what we do repetitively. When we want to add something to our life, whether it's exercise, prayer, or just getting up earlier in the morning, we know that we must turn an activity into a habit through repetition or it just won't stick. What would happen if we applied the same kind of daily dedication to faith? Could faith become a habit, a given--automatic? With vulnerable storytelling and insightful readings of both Old and New Testament passages, Jen Pollock Michel invites the convinced and the curious into a 40-day Bible reading experience. Vividly translating ancient truths for a secular age, Michel highlights how the biblical text invites us to see, know, live, love, and obey. The daily reflection questions and weekly discussion guides invite both individuals and groups, believers and doubters alike, to explore how faith, even faith as small as a mustard seed, might grow into a life-defining habit.
Natural theology is the project of articulating, defending and CntlClzmg arguments for the existence and nature of God without the aid of special revelation. Philosophical theology, which employs the rational methods of natural theology, is not restricted to premises that are discernible through observation and reason; it may rightly employ premises that are knowable through special revelation. While the project of natural theology may be construed as an attempt to demonstrate God's existence, one cannot ignore the importance of using reason or experience to understand, determine or assess attributes. One will want to know at the conclusion of a proof in natural God's theology if one has proved the existence of God and not merely the prim urn mobilum, source of moral obligation or a committee of finite designers; while God may be the prime mover and designer of the cosmos, none of these attributes alone is sufficient for making a claim to divinity. It is, therefore, difficult to distinguish sharply the project of natural theology from philosophi cal theology. The project of classical natural theology has been the attempt to prove God's existence and nature with arguments that employ premises that all rational creatures are obliged to accept.
This first book-length feminist study of Donne argues that his sacred subject-position is ambivalently and illustratively invested in cultural archetypes of mothers, daughters, and brides. The chapters focus on baptism, marriage, and death as key moments in Donne's and his culture's construction of the gendered soul.
