Jesus and the Disinherited
by Howard ThurmanIn this classic theological treatise, the acclaimed theologian and religious leader Howard Thurman (1900-1981) demonstrates how the gospel may be read as a manual of resistance for the poor and disenfranchised.

Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals
by Shane Claiborne Chris HawDo the church and politics ever go together? Jesus for President is a radical manifesto--more urgent today than ever--to awaken the Christian political imagination, reminding us that our ultimate hope lies not in partisan political options but in Jesus and the incarnation of the peculiar politic of the church as a people "set apart" from this world.This collaboration between Shane Claiborne's writing and stories, Chris Haw's reflections and research, and Chico Fajardo-Heflin's 4-color art and design creates lyrical theology that poetically weaves together words and images to sing (rather than dictate) its message.This one-of-a-kind book includes:Messages drawn from biblical theologiansLessons from church historyExamples from modern-day saints and ordinary radicalsA poetic and illustrative perspective of faith This book is perfect for those who seek to follow Jesus, rediscover the spirit of the early church, and represent the kingdom of God.Jesus for President stirs the imagination of what the church could look like if it placed its faith in Jesus instead of Caesar. A fresh look at Christianity and empire, Jesus for President transcends questions of "Should I vote or not?" and "Which candidate?" by thinking creatively about the fundamental issues of faith and allegiance.

Jesus on Forgiveness: Words of Mercy from the Son of God
by Joseph B. HealyThe act of forgiveness is not something that comes easily to most of us. Too often we become angry or judgmental instead of forgiving others. It can be difficult to remember we have all made mistakes or done things we regret, and we would want to be forgiven in turn. Alexander Pope famously wrote, "To err is human; to forgive, divine. ” It is that divinity that Jesus Christ embodies and to which so many aspire. Jesus’s message is one of forgiving anyone, and he lived by that same principle, providing an example to all. Jesus on Forgiveness contains quotes and wisdom from the teachings and ministrations of Jesus Christ as he communed with the people around him, stressing the need for sincere graciousness and letting go of the desire for revenge. His gentle words encouraging a spirit of forgiveness toward even those who have done us the most harm can inspire and touch people of any faith, Christian or otherwise. "Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, 'Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?’ Jesus answered, 'I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. ’” (Matthew 18:21-22)

Jesus through Medieval Eyes: Beholding Christ with the Artists, Mystics, and Theologians of the Middle Ages
by Grace HammanJesus through Medieval Eyes will take you on an exploration of medieval representations of Jesus in theology and literature.Who is Jesus? What is he like? And who am I, encountering Jesus? These questions were just as important to Christians in the Middle Ages as they are today.And yet—as C.S. Lewis noted—the modern church tends to forget that people of different cultures and times also thought carefully about who Jesus was; and sometimes their ideas and emphases were different.Medievalist scholar Grace Hamman believes that we can deepen our understanding and adoration of Christ by looking to the Christians of the Middle Ages. Medieval Europeans were also suffering through pandemics, dealing with political and ecclesial corruption and instability, and reckoning with gender, money, and power. But their concerns and imaginations are unlike ours. Their ideas, narratives, and art about Jesus open up paradoxically fresh and ancient ways to approach and adore Christ—and to reveal where our own cultural ideals about the Messiah fall short.Medieval representations of Jesus span from the familiar—like Jesus as the Judge at the End of Days, or Jesus as the Lover of the Song of Songs—to the more unusual, like Jesus as Our Mother. Through the words of medieval people like Julian of Norwich, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, Margery Kempe, and St. Thomas Aquinas, we meet these faces of Jesus and find renewed ways to love the Savior, in the words of St. Augustine, that "beauty so ancient and so new."

Jesús: La Palabra de Dios
by DR Pensacola H JeffersonAlgunas de las manifestaciones de Dios son los cielos y ellos HABLAN. Toda la creación, de hecho, hablan de Dios; su bondad, su sabiduría y su poder. El Rey David, el salmista, dice que los cielos HABLAN y CUENTAN la gloria de Dios y la OBRA de la creación. Los cielos CUENTAN sin una sola escritura o palabras humanas, que Dios es infinitamente GRANDIOSO, bueno, y poderoso. Los Cielos Hablan a través del cielo espacioso, las estrellas brillantes o la vasta astronomía, los varios planetas, el sol, la luna. Los cielos desplegados DECLARACION, PREDICAN, CUENTAN que Dios existe. La Creación es un LANGUAJE que habla a todas las naciones y lenguas. La CREACIÓN es un LENGUAJE escrito por las OBRAS del Espíritu Santo y DECLARAN sabiduría, sin escalas, sin una sola palabra humana. Puede ser leído y entendido sin ninguna habilidad lingüística hablada o leída por los humanos. El lenguaje de la Creación está siempre hablando a través de su glorioso cielo, su magnífica tierra, su perpetua fertilidad, su nutritiva vegetación, su comunes y raros animales, sus beneficios múltiples, y sus operaciones sustentables. El autor del lenguaje de la creación es Dios y él HABLA a través de cada OBRA que puede ser VISTO por lo que ha sido HECHO. Como el CREADOR, Dios es descubierto a través de la revelación del conocimiento de un LANGUAJE hablado por su OBRA creativa. Su lenguaje creativo TAMBIÉN es llamado LA PALABRA DE DIOS. La PALABRA de DIOS es una PRUEBA que la creación no ocurrió por casualidad o un big bang, pero que fue CREADO o vino a existencia por un PODER UNICO; ¡Dios mismo!; La CREACIÓN es un LENGUAJE hablado por la PALABRA del Espíritu de Dios. El lenguaje de La CREACIÓN DECLARA sabiduría. Sin embargo, las OBRAS del Espíritu Santo vienen a existencia, PRIMERO, a través de la PALABRA DE DIOS, quien es la sabiduría. La CRE
Jeu: Une pièce par Jed McKenna
by Jed Mckenna Laura DinrathsC’est ce que c’est, disent-ils, mais est-ce le cas ? Jed McKenna a toujours pris soin de détruire les questions plutôt que d’y répondre, et ce n’est pas surprenant que Jeu soit plus une question qu’une réponse. En fait, la pièce pourrait être vue comme une progression suivant les étapes de recherche personnelle, chacun des sept actes nous emmenant plus profondément dans ce voyage intérieur, les premiers actes posant les questions, et les derniers examinant ceux qui se les posent ; nous montrant, nous promettant, nous avertissant où cette recherche honnête et implacable nous conduit vraiment. Mais qui, demande Jed, veut réellement suivre la route où elle mène réellement ? Lors de ce voyage, qui vous êtes change à chaque pas, et ce qui compte, c’est faire le pas suivant. Au final, Jeu est ce que c’est. Mais est-ce le cas ? Peut-être est-ce un voyage d’étude de la vie, ou peut-être est-ce juste une petite pièce ludique. Au final, évidemment, Jeu, comme la vie, comme tout, est ce que vous en faites.

Jivamukti Yoga: Practices for Liberating Body and Soul
by David Life Sharon GannonThe long-awaited, complete guide to the popular, vigorous American method of yoga that is deeply rooted in ancient wisdom and scriptures. "In this day and age of health and fitness trends, it is assuring to know that Sharon and David encourage their students to draw inspiration from the classical texts of Yoga and timeless scriptural sources. What I appreciate so much about David and Sharon is how they help their Yoga students to understand and appreciate the wisdom of all the great saints and jivamuktas who have contributed to raising consciousness. Ultimately, it is Self-Realization, that is the true goal of Yoga."-SRI SWAMI SATCHIDANANDA. Creators of the extremely popular Jivamukti Yoga method and cofounders of the New York City studios where it is taught, Sharon Gannon and David Life present their unique style of yoga for the first time in book form. As they explain their intensely physical and spiritual system of flowing postures, they provide inspiring expert instruction to guide you in your practice.Unlike many books about yoga, Jivamukti Yoga focuses not only on the physical postures but also on how they evolved-the origins of the practices in yoga's ancient sacred texts and five-thousand-year-old traditions--the psychotherapeutic benefits that accrue with a steady practice, and the spiritual power that is set free when energy flows throughout the mind and body. Jivamukti Yoga, which means "soul liberation," guides your body and soul into spiritual freedom, physical strength, peace of mind, better health, and Self-realization--the ultimate goal of any practice. Gannon and Life help you understand each of the practices that comprise the yoga path to enlightenment: AHIMSA--The Way of Compassion: choosing nonviolence, respecting all life, practicing vegetarianism, living free of prejudice. ASANA--The Way of Connection to the Earth: postures and sequences, breathing, transforming energy, understanding the bandhas. KARMA--The Way of Action: creating good karma, giving thanks. NADAM--The Way of Sacred Music: appreciating the sacred sounds of yoga. MEDITATION--The Way of the Witness: how to sit still and move inward. BHAKTI--The Way of Devotion to God: living with love, grace, and peace. Whatever yoga you practice, Jivamukti Yoga will help you to strengthen and deepen that practice and lead you onto a path of spiritual clarity and self-discovery. "If there is only one book you read about the practice of Yoga, this should be the one. Sharon and David are deeply dedicated students and teachers of Yoga who have the rare capacity to translate their profound understanding to the reader. This book is for anyone who wishes to find transformation through Yoga. I'm grateful for their work and teaching."--STEPHAN RECHTSCHAFFEN, MD Co-founder & CEO, Omega Institute.

Job Hunting for Dummies (2nd edition)
by Max MessmerMax Messmer's mother once told him to start pulling his own weight and get a job. So at age 11, he began making ladies' hand-crafted bracelets. He sold scores of them to her friends, neighbors, students, and even teachers. He enjoyed selling them so much it created a stir at school and took him away from his studies. His mom then put him out of business, forcing him back to basic homework. He learned something, though. Nothing happens until you make a sale. The job hunting process is no exception. No one will know your capabilities until you become an expert at selling them. (And if you saw these bracelets today, you'd know what a sales job it was, he says.) Inability to sell one's skills is one of the most frequent failings of job candidates, according to Messmer. Today, Max Messmer is chairman and CEO of Robert Half International Inc. (RHI), the world's largest specialized staffing firm, and one of the foremost experts on job searching and career management. If you've lost your job, remember that you are not alone. Most people have been let go more than once in their career. It no longer carries the stigma it once did, especially with the series of mergers and downsizings that have transformed today's workplace. In the grand scheme of things, this time will be relatively short. Best of luck in your search! - Max Messmer P. S. As for the reference to Dummies, I think we all know that the only dumb question is the one that's never asked. So you deserve praise for taking charge of your career and seeking answers!
