The African American Community in Rural New England

The African American Community in Rural New England

David H. Levinson

Berkshire Publishing Group
2018
nidottu
The African American Community in Rural New England is the often heroic tale of a small group of African Americans who founded and have maintained their church in a small New England town for nearly 140 years. The church is the Clinton African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church and the town is Great Barrington, Massachusetts - the hometown of the leading African American scholar and activist W. E. B. Du Bois. Du Bois attended the church as a youth and wrote about it; these writings are one source for this history. The book gives readers a broad view of the details of the church's history and recounts the story of its growth. Du Bois plays a crucial role in the national fight for social justice, of which the church was and remains an important part.

The London Baptist Confession of 1646

I have no doubt that our Sovereign God will use this updated version of the Confession to reform today's church for His glory, and thus increase our joy in Christ.-Charles R. Moore, Jr.Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church of Paducah, KentuckyThe London Baptist Confession of 1646 is a foundational document for Baptist theology, history, and tradition. Its strong emphasis on biblical doctrine provides a timeless resource for anyone who wants to strengthen and clarify their faith.The London Baptist Confession of 1646 is a resource that can be used in the local church as a statement of faith. It will also serve those looking for a solid doctrinal foundation in the Sunday school, church planting efforts, and church revitalization. The gospel truths offered in this Confession are a vital part of Christian unity and will remain a treasure for generations to come. The London Baptist Confession of 1646: A Modern Version for the Church Today is an updated version that retains the message of the original Confession while the language has been updated for today's modern reader. Readers will especially enjoy the rich imagery of Jesus Christ as prophet, priest, and king.The London Baptist Confession of 1646: A Modern Version for the Church Today draws from the Reformed tradition and offers a clear picture of God's sovereignty in salvation, and its content also focuses on the New Covenant era established by the coming of Christ.EndorsementsFor various reasons - theological, doxological, ecclesiastical and now even legal/political - churches need thorough, historic and orthodox confessions of faith. The London Confession should be the one to which Reformed Baptists look for all of these. Hopefully this modern version will help maintain and enhance its usefulness for a new generation.-Carl TruemanPaul Woolley Professor of Church History, Westminster Theological Seminary, PennsylvaniaWith the help of the Holy Spirit and the faith and love of those before us, the good deposit continues toget passed down from generation to generation. Lord willing, this modern confession will help churches articulate their faith and guard it as others did before them.-Gregory BrownLead Pastor, Handong International Congregation, South KoreaIn the seventeenth century, Baptist churches of Reformed convictions were not afraid to explain their faith for the benefit of fellow-believers and for others. This version of the 1646 confession, changed only in points of expression, will serve the same Christian purpose in the twenty-first century.-David BebbingtonProfessor of History, University of Stirling, ScotlandIn a day and age when compromise and concessions are all too prevalent, a modern rendering of this humble, yet noble, confession is needed more than ever.-Jon J. CardwellPastor of Sovereign Grace Baptist Church, Anniston, AlabamaI am very pleased to endorse this modern version of the London Baptist Confession of 1646. It is greatly needed in our day.-Geoff VolkerPastor, New Covenant Bible Fellowship, Gilbert, ArizonaCreeds and confessions are an essential means to maintain, teach, and transmit the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. Modern saints are certainly enriched by the reprint of this first Particular Baptist Confession.-Pascal DenaultPastor, Evangelical Reformed Baptist Church of Saint-J r me, Qu bec

The Inner Man vs The Mythical King With a scholar's mind and an Elvis-fan's heart, eminent psychiatrist and Jungian analyst Dr David H. Rosen illuminates both the inner Elvis and the myth of Elvis in popular culture. An inspirational, perceptive, personal and truly innovative exploration of Elvis, a rock and roll idol who was a deeply spiritual being, well beyond his well-known gospel and blues singing. The Tao of Elvis includes essays by two New York Times Best-Selling Authors: Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul: A Guide for Cultivating Depth and Sacredness in Everyday Life, contributes a foreword in which he asks pivotal questions about the parallel destinies of Elvis and America. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, author of Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype, has contributed a free-wheeling afterword passionately expressing how Elvis's "beautiful flame of life" rocked the post-war world, and rocks her still. Forty-two chapters representing the forty-two years of Elvis's life contain perceptive and inspiring quotations from the world's most perceptive thinkers, as well as from the people who knew Elvis best. In a most readable fashion, Rosen unites the varied voices into each chapter's theme: Tao Opposites Child Mother Father Family and Friends Spirit, Soul, and Religion Love Music and Song Grace and Gentleness Darkness, Sorrow, and Sadness Light, Fire and Passion Dreams Giving and Generosity Alone and Loneliness Twinning and Pairing Man of Tao Innocence and Play Knowledge and Wisdom Image (Persona and Shadow) Truth and Truth of Character Happiness and Joy Virtue Beauty Nature and Water Work (Business) Transcendence and Transformation Success and Failure Home (Graceland) King Pain and Suffering Harmony and Balance Prisoner and Freedom Destiny Meditation and Health Madness and Illness Compassion and Forgiveness Mirror Purpose and Meaning Prayer and Sacrifice Death and Rebirth Spiritual Wholeness The Tao of Elvis is fully illustrated with Chinese papercut-inspired artwork by Diane Katz and includes a the artist's annotations for each chapter, and thorough Notes and Bibliography.

Federal Service and the Constitution

Federal Service and the Constitution

David H. Rosenbloom

Georgetown University Press
2014
pokkari
Conceived during the turbulent period of the late 1960s when 'rights talk' was ubiquitous, Federal Service and the Constitution, a landmark study first published in 1971, strove to understand how the rights of federal civil servants had become so differentiated from those of ordinary citizens. Now in a new, second edition, this legal-historical analysis reviews and enlarges its look at the constitutional rights of federal employees from the nation's founding to the present. Thoroughly revised and updated, this highly readable history of the constitutional relationship between federal employees and the government describes how the changing political, administrative, and institutional concepts of what the federal service is or should be are related to the development of constitutional doctrines defining federal employees' constitutional rights. Developments in society since 1971 have dramatically changed the federal bureaucracy, protecting and expanding employment rights, while at the same time Supreme Court decisions are eroding the special legal status of federal employees. Looking at the current status of these constitutional rights, Rosenbloom concludes by suggesting that recent Supreme Court decisions may reflect a shift to a model based on private sector practices.

Viri Dignitatem

Viri Dignitatem

David H. Delaney

Emmaus Academic
2023
sidottu
In numerous works both before and after his papal election, John Paul II offers ample reflection on the themes of personhood, relationality, and sexual complementarity, but while he advances a clearly articulated theology of femininity and motherhood, as in his apostolic letter Mulieris Dignitatem, he might seem to offer no equivalent treatment of masculinity and fatherhood.In Viri Dignitatem, David Delaney seeks to surface and systematize the rich but often overlooked theology of masculinity and fatherhood that is found dispersed throughout John Paul II's writings, demonstrating its essentiality for understanding his larger anthropology. In the first part of the study, Delaney treats the foundations of this anthropology, establishing John Paul II's thought on personhood, relation, and human action. Building on this, the second part considers sexual differentiation, drawing out from John Paul II's teaching on the body, femininity, Mary, and the Church his corresponding perspective on masculinity, which is itself rooted in nuptial complementarity and the revealing work of Christ. The third part focuses on John Paul II's theology of fatherhood, which Delaney presents as both a natural and spiritual vocation that is based on the Fatherhood of God as this is manifested and imaged by the incarnate Son. Finally, the fourth part provides a synthetic assessment of this theology of masculinity and fatherhood, showing its coherence and addressing contemporary criticisms and misinterpretations.At a time of accelerating crises of sexuality, the family, and fatherhood, Delaney's Viri Dignitatem provides a welcome and important elaboration of John Paul II's teaching on the dignity and vocation of man.

Ghislaine Girabaldi slammed her classified copy of an NSA briefing paper on her desk in front of Alicia Clooney. "What's this?" demanded the speaker. "Have you been to church lately?" Alicia Clooney picked up the document. The paper was an intelligence agency brief, classified Top Secret and NOFORN, which meant No Foreign access, with the subject line: "Islamic Jihad meetings in Damascus over the Stony Island Gang." "Is there something in here that matters to me?" asked Alicia. "I don't know anyone in Syria. And why, if it's Top Secret, are you showing it to me?" The speaker pursed her lips. "Don't bullshit me. You've seen a lot more than this, Alicia. God only knows how much Intel John gave you. But this involves your estranged husband, terrorists, and a priest." "Okay, what did John do now?" "He offered a bribe to the head of Islamic Jihad." Alicia gasped. "To do what? How much? Why?" "He wants Islamic Jihad to kill that old Jew, David Green," said Girabaldi.
