Crying Out for Change
Author: Deepa Narayan-ParkerPublisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 9780195216028
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
A multi-country research initiative to understand poverty from the eyes of the poor, the Voices of the Poor project was undertaken to inform the World Bank's activities and the upcoming World Development Report 2000/01. The research findings are being published in three books: "Can Anyone Hear Us?" gathers the voices of over 40,000 poor women and men in 50 countries from the World Bank's participatory poverty assessments (Deepa Narayan, Raj Patel, Kai Schafft, Anne Rademacher, and Sarah Koch-Schulte, authors). "Crying Out for Change" pulls together new field work conducted in 1999 in 23 countries (Deepa Narayan, Robert Chambers, Meera Shah, and Patti Petesch, authors). "From Many Lands" offers regional patterns and country case-studies (Deepa Narayan and Patti Petesch, editors). Voices of the Poor marks the first time such an exercise has been undertaken in so many developing countries and transition economies around the world. It provides a unique and detailed picture of the life of the poor and explains the constraints poor people face to escape from poverty in a way that more traditional survey techniques do not capture well. Each of the three volumes demonstrates the importance of voice and power in poor people's definition of poverty. Voices of the Poor concludes that we need to expand our conventional views of poverty which focus on income expenditure, education, and health to include measures of voice and empowerment.
Creation Cries Out! The Mazzaroth
Author: Paul SidesPublisher: Rav Sha'ul
ISBN: 1511802677
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 430
Book Description
Creation Cries Out! is the first book in The Original Revelation series. The 14 books in The Original Revelation clearly define the great deception, the false religion, the false messiah, the true Messiah, the Kingdom of God (Yahuah), and the renewed covenant. In this first book Creation Cries Out! we begin our search for the truth with a journey back to Creation to define the message written in the stars by our Creator Yahuah. We reclaim that message to His Glory. We will take a critical look at the origin of mankind, the fall of the angelic realm, myths of the gods that rules over humanity, myths of giants, myths of vampires, and more to help us understand the world in which our ancient ancestors lived. A world communicated throughout the Ages using Mythology as their means of communication. We'll look at the truth behind the myths. We'll explain the origin of the many "solar messiahs" throughout history, and much more. Creation Cries Out! 3rd Edition - The book of the Mazzaroth, is the most complete book ever written on what the Bible calls the Mazzaroth and what we today call the Zodiac. It is the Heavenly Scroll and source of all the prophets in the Bible. In the Mazzaroth the Plan of Salvation is laid out by the Creator and the Messiah's role is defined. In the Mazzaroth, we find the first prophesies of: - The Sabbath - The Ages of mankind - The first and second comings of the Messiah - The Messiah ben Joseph (suffering servant) - The Messiah ben David (conquering King) - The Fall and Spring Feast Cycles of Yahuah - The Wedding Portrait, the Bride and Bridegroom - The Two Houses of Israel - The source of all pagan kings and "Christs" - The age of individual life (70 years) ... and much more. In this book I explain how Yahuah used the Zodiac to witness the Gospel to all the prophets, Abraham, the Galatians, Sha'ul (Paul the Apostle), and John the revelator. I explain in detail the visions of Ezekiel, Daniel, and John in Revelation and how they were told to "Behold! The Heavenly Scroll" and described the Enoch Zodiac in great detail. I explain how the Mazzaroth/Zodiac is the real meaning behind the English word "heaven". I bring to light many scriptures throughout the Bible that are specifically speaking of the Zodiac/Heavenly Scroll. In this book, difficult concepts are explained in plain English. I address the question "does the Bible condemn the Zodiac, or proclaim it?" What is "divination", what is the difference between a Prophet and a Soothsayer? What is Astrology and is there a righteous example of it? This book is 430 pages of fully illustrated and well defined Truth that has alluded mankind since the creation of man. I explain how the message in the Zodiac has been perverted and the Battle of the Ages between the Truth of the Creator and sun worship comes down to the Zodiac. The false messiah is defined by the corrupted message found in the Zodiac. The True Messiah is the fulfillment of the Original Revelation from Yahuah to all mankind found written in the stars. This book lays the foundation for The Original Revelation Series.
The Land Cries Out
Author: Salim J. MunayerPublisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725246538
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Our theology does not exist in a vacuum but must relate to the world we inhabit and must influence our moral and ethical actions. This is especially true when discussing theology of "the land" in the context of a violent territorial conflict. The Holy Land has seen so much bloodshed that the earth itself is crying out to God. The chapters presented in this book form a unique collection of voices speaking from different perspectives on the issue of the theology of the land. These voices include Messianic Jewish and Palestinian Christian theologians and scholars who live in the Holy Land, as well as others from around the world. The various chapters reflect a wide spectrum of opinion and reveal how much disagreement still exists among followers of Christ. However, the dialogue generated by having these opposing voices side by side, speaking to each other rather than past each other, is encouraging. This book is both challenging and inspirational, and contributes in an innovative way to this important discussion.

True to Raven's style, the ook includes folklore, legend, and superstition surrounding the topic. Shrines, altars, and offerings are discussed in detail. Ancient practices related to communing with the ancestors are revived, and new rituals are provided, including an exercise to lead readers into the "cavern of the ancestors" through guided imagery. Sacred sites, power places, special portals to the ancients, reincarnation, and the "restless dead who are still bound to the earth realm"--he covers it all.
Blood Cries Out
Author: A. J. SwobodaPublisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1625644620
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
John McConnell Jr. was the famed founder and visionary of Earth Day. McConnell's vision was one of creating a day of remembrance, solitude, and action to restore the broken human relationship to the land. Little acknowledged are McConnell's religious convictions or background. McConnell grew up in a Pentecostal home. In fact, McConnell's parents were both founding charter members of the Assemblies of God in 1914. His own grandfather had an even greater connection to the origins of Pentecostalism by being a personal participant at the Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles in 1906. Earth Day, thus, began with strong religious convictions. McConnell, seeing the ecological demise through his religious background, envisioned a day where Christians could "show the power of prayer, the validity of their charity, and their practical concern for Earth's life and people." In the spirit of McConnell, today's Pentecostal and Charismatic theology has something to say about the earth. Blood Cries Out is a unique contribution by Pentecostal and Charismatic theologians and practitioners to the global conversation concerning ecological degradation, climate change, and ecological justice.
