A distinctively theological interpretation of the Thessalonian letters In this commentary Andy Johnson engages with the developing interpretive framework of missional hermeneutics to present a theological interpretation of 1 & 2 Thessalonians that aims to help the church more fully participate in the life and mission of the triune God. After a verse by-verse commentary, Johnson closely examines the theology of the two epistles, focusing especially on the topics of eschatology, holiness, and election in light of his missional reading of 1 and 2 Thessalonians. In his exegetical and theological analyses, Johnson considers canonical concerns, doctrinal commitments, ecclesial practices, proposals from contemporary systematic theology, and insights gleaned from the field of neuroscience regarding personal and community formation, all of which help to clarify and enrich readers' understanding of various passages.
The walks in this book have been chosen with the aim of exploring South Shropshire's past, with each walk passing or visiting features about which some background information is given. These include churches, chapels, castles and castle sites, dykes, tumuli, stone circles, hillforts, sites of deserted villages, medieval houses, stately homes, drovers' roads, inns, mills, the Severn Valley Railway and industrial remains. Some of the sites can only be reached on foot. The walks have also been chosen to provide routes in a range of country-side. Some walks follow river valleys whilst others clamber to the tops of the highest hills to view prehistoric sites and remains of industrial working, but many more wander through and across the rolling hills. Some include a partial exploration of the area's towns. The walks range from 3 to 9 miles in length, with the majority being between 4 and 7 miles. Each walk has a sketch map and detailed directions, together with background information about features en route. Not only is this a book of walks, but also a companion to and celebration of South Shropshire.
Autobiografické vyprávění autorky o osobních setkáních a zkušenostech s americkými a brazilskými léčiteli. Autorka se úspěšně vyléčila z rakoviny prsu. Jak sama ve své knize přiznává, ze strachu a z nedostatku víry se podrobila konvenčnímu způsobu léčby, ale hledala další možnosti. Vydala se na cestu po Spojených státech amerických a Brazílii, navštívila řadu léčitelů, šamanů a okultních chirurgů, sledovala jejich metody léčby, práci s energií, víru v duchovní síly a překvapivé někdy až zázračné výsledky léčby beznadějných případů. Její pohled na uzdravování za pomoci duchovních sil je realistický a objektivní, váží si schopností léčitelů, sama se podrobila jejich působení a zůstává zdravá
