Send for paul temple again5/23/2023 ![]() As members participate in temple ordinances, they come together in a prayer circle and unite their faith in behalf of those individuals. When members of the Church become aware of those in need, whether that be because of illness, afflictions, or other challenges, they are invited to place the names of those people on the temple prayer roll. The Savior taught that “My house shall be a house of prayer” ( Matthew 21:13), and this teaching is observed in LDS temples-the Lord’s House-today. Yea, and when you do not cry unto the Lord, let your hearts be full, drawn out in prayer unto him continually for your welfare, and also for the welfare of those who are around you” ( Alma 34:26–27).įor members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, this practice is part of temple work and worship. ![]() The Book of Mormon prophet Alma taught “ye must pour out your souls in your closets, and your secret places, and in your wilderness. The effectual fervent prayer of availeth much” ( James 5:16). The New Testament teaches that we should “pray one for another, that ye may be healed. During His ministry, Jesus Christ taught, “Pray in your families unto the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed” ( 3 Nephi 18:21). The scriptures teach of the power of praying for each other. Praying for each other is a common practice in many faith traditions, including the practice of praying in groups for those in need. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() If you leave out the front and back matter, the body of this book (chapters 1-6) is just over 100 pages. The final chapter offers summary thoughts on retrospective readings and the challenge and benefit of Gospel-shaped hermeneutics. There then follows a short chapter on each Gospel writer’s strategy of doing this. He then offers an introductory chapter on figural reading, which as you might have figured, is the backwards reading the title refers to. In his preface, Hays mentions several forerunners to the type of work he is doing (Dodd, Wright, Hurtado, Bauckham, to name a few). It is a preview of a Gospel focused sequel he is working on toEchoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul. The book itself is derived from a series of lectures Hays delivered at Cambridge in 20.

![]() Holleran’s first novel, Dancer from the Dance, is widely regarded as a classic work of gay literature. All the while, he shares reflections on illness and death that are at once funny and heartbreaking. He distracts himself with sexual encounters at the video porn store and visits to Walgreens. Now Earl’s health is failing, and our increasingly misanthropic narrator must contend with the fact that once Earl dies, he will be completely alone. Earl is the only person in town with whom he can truly be himself. For the last twenty years, he has been visiting Earl to watch classic films together and critique the neighbors. ![]() With gallows humor, he chronicles the indignities of growing old in a small town.Īt the heart of the novel is the story of his friendship with Earl, whom he met cruising at the local boat ramp. The nameless narrator is a gay man who moved to Florida to look after his aging parents-during the height of the AIDS epidemic-and has found himself unable to leave after their deaths. The Kingdom of Sand is a poignant tale of desire and dread-Andrew Holleran’s first new book in sixteen years. One of the great appeals of Florida has always been the sense that the minute you get here you have permission to collapse. ![]()

Scoop by Evelyn Waugh5/22/2023 ![]() ![]() I had no talent for this work but I joyfully studied the eccentricities and excesses of my colleagues. In Abyssinia I had served as the foreign correspondent of an English daily paper. ![]() Of the later I knew nothing at first hand. I tried to arrange a combination of these two wars. ![]() Other minor themes, then topical, are out of date, in particular the "ideological war," although some parallels to it might still be found in the Far East.Īt the time of writing public interest had just been diverted from Abyssinia to Spain. Foreign correspondents, at the time this story was written, enjoyed an unprecedented and undeserved fame. Its earlier editions bore the subtitle: "A novel about journalists." This now seems superfluous. This light-hearted tale was the fruit of a time of general anxiety and distress but, for its author, one of peculiar personal happiness.

She did not relate to being a Giant, a Wizard, or a Dwarf. A small child stands there looking up, and asks in a small, concerned voice, “Where do the Mermaids stand?”Ī long pause. While the groups huddled in frenzied, whispered consultation, a tug came at my pants leg. I yelled out: “You have to decide now which you are–a GIANT, a WIZARD, or a DWARF!” ![]() ![]() The excitement of the chase had reached a critical mass. Organizing a roomful of wired-up gradeschoolers into two teams, explaining the rudiments of the game, achieving consensus on group identity–all this is no mean accomplishment, but we did it with a right good will and were ready to go. But the real purpose of the game is to make a lot of noise and run around chasing people until nobody knows which side you are on or who won. It’s a large-scale version of Rock, Paper, and Scissors, and involves some intellectual decision making. “ Giants, wizards and dwarfs was the game to play.īeing left in charge of about eighty children seven to ten years old, while their parents were off doing parenty things, I mustered my troops in the church social hall and explained the game. ![]() |
