Phenomenologies of Incarnation in Michel Henry and Emmanuel Falque
Bringing Michel Henry and Emmanuel Falque into dialogue, Mark Novak explores how they both articulate a phenomenology of the body and flesh in relation to incarnation and resurrection. As key proponents of the ‘theological turn’ in phenomenology, this volume illustrates how philosophical foundations inform Henry and Falque's theological views and uncovers the differences, and in some cases, surprising similarities between the two thinkers’ positions on these central Christian tenets. Beginning with a succinct overview of the origins of phenomenology and the shift towards embodiment, Novak surveys a number of different theories from Husserl’s foundational distinction between flesh (Leib) and body (Körper) to Merleau-Ponty, Maine de Biran and Dominique Janicaud. With this, focus turns to Henry and Falque. Methodically examining each thinker’s key texts on flesh and the body, Novak proposes that their views on resurrection and the incarnation are not as different as philosophers might think. Even despite Falque’s claim that Henry’s views on the incarnation neglect materiality by understanding the human being as flesh, Novak demonstrates how Falque’s critical response to Henry’s idea ironically mirrors it. By turning to material forces to better describe the body in his recent work, Falque recapitulates Henry’s understanding of flesh.Phenomenologies of Incarnation in Michel Henry and Emmanuel Falque provides a much-needed introduction to the phenomenology of embodiment and its important implications for philosophical theology.

Pastoral failure, volunteer fatigue, exhausted staff members, church wounds, and increasing membership decline have left us wondering, how do we lead from God-with-us rather than the world's hustle culture? Non-Anxious Churches examines communities' need for churches that are authentic, real, and non-anxious. Unfortunately, churches are not immune to anxiousness and can even perpetuate it by juggling tasks, getting caught up in activities, and focusing on the wrong goals. Pastor Mark Knight guides church leaders instead to dwell in and lead from the abiding presence of Jesus. Over the years, the social sciences have added a lot to this discussion about churches and anxious systems. Non-Anxious Churches seeks to further the conversation using answers found in Scripture and in the discipline of spiritual formation.

(VIDEO PREVIEW AT: youtube.com/user/Novangelis) Linus stared, pondering the ultimate object of desire - power. The power to raise legions, to change history. To grant life or cause death. He had discovered a new volume of history where women were of primary importance, and a secret struggle being prosecuted across the ages that involved spectacular missing treasures, bizarre rituals, and dark secrets kept by furtive societies. It was an intrigue harkening back to an age that spawned a new type of crime, the 'Sacre Furta' or 'Sacred Theft'. Now, a thousand years later, technology was spawning another deadly age of Sacred Thefts, one that, as Linus saw it, had already begun. The wind gusted and a white chop moiled the Atlantic. He held his breath and listened. The deck was creaking. Someone was lurking outside his door.

Undervejs lærer vores helte – og læserne – hvordan vandets kredsløb udfolder sig! "Nova Franklin og de skøre bobler" er den første bog i en serie, der med fantasi og sjov tager børn med på opdagelse i, hvordan verden omkring os fungerer. Hvor kommer vandet i hanen fra? Hvad er det for et lys, der tændes med et klik – og hvor kommer strømmen fra? Hvor bliver skraldet af? Hvordan bliver huse bygget? Tag med Nova på eventyr – og se din verden med helt nye øjne!
Two Wheels to Nova Scotia

To celebrate college graduation, a father takes his son on a memorable motorcycle trip from Georgia to Nova Scotia to ride The Cabot Trail. From the Preface: "Touring on two wheels is unlike other modes of travel. Riding a motorcycle is a smorgasbord for the senses. Upon a two-wheeled-memory-making machine, a motorcyclist becomes part of the landscape, instead of just a spectator with their nose pressed against the window watching the world go by. If it is cold, a motorcyclist is chilled. If it is raining, the rider feels damp; if flowers are blooming, riders are immersed in the aroma, and when the sun shines, we are warmed. The sound of the rushing wind and the pulse of the machine between our legs are part of the experience and the thrill. Motorcycle riders can feel the ebb and flow of a road as it follows the contours of a rugged coastline, or dips and swerves through a mountainous forest. This can be a religious experience, especially when the route provides great vistas and panoramas from which to observe some of the Creator's finest work. The only way the experience could get better is to have someone with whom to share it. This trip provided both."

O envolvimento do cliente muito importante para o futuro de quase todas as empresas comerciais. mais complexo do que nunca e tem havido uma mudan a dram tica na forma como o servi o ao cliente prestado. S o muitas as mudan as que est o a ocorrer; a globaliza o, a tecnologia avan ada, um ambiente competitivo mais duro, clientes mais informados e sofisticados s o apenas algumas das mudan as que est o a ocorrer no clima empresarial. No entanto, existem poucas provas que integrem os efeitos das vari veis em simult neo, produzindo assim uma imagem completa do alinhamento da cultura e dos valores da empresa, da marca interna e das rela es com o cliente com a satisfa o do cliente para criar o seu envolvimento. Uma compreens o completa do empenho da gest o e dos empregados na efic cia do servi o pessoal e nos valores da marca para criar a satisfa o do cliente e o subsequente envolvimento do cliente requer um exame dos antecedentes, mas n o existe at data um nico estudo emp rico. Este estudo, portanto, procura preencher esta lacuna, encontrando uma metodologia eficaz para envolver os clientes existentes e, ao mesmo tempo, atrair novos clientes.

Devices that convert explosive energy into electromagnetic energy are often called Flux Compression Generators (FCGs) in the United States, whereas the term Magnetocumulative Generators (MCGs) is more com­ monly used in Russia. Since the Russian literature is accessed more heavily in this book, the latter term is used here. In any event, the basic process involves using explosives to force an initial magnetic flux into a region of smaller inductance in such a manner that loss of flux is minimized. In the event that no flux is lost, the magnetic energy associated with the flux, inversely proportional to the inductance, must increase. Flux loss is min­ imized by confining it with good conductors which, in turn, are driven rapidly by the explosive to reduce the system inductance. The magnetic energy is increased by the work the conductors do as they are forcibly moved against the magnetic field, the energy, in turn, being supplied by the explosive driving them. As the reader may infer, there are different kinds of generators, some of which might be difficult to recognize as MCGs. Nonetheless, they all possess the features outlined above. Explosives have some unique features as energy sources. They have very high available energy densities; they release energy rapidly, or at high power; they can develop very high pressures.
