The act of blessing is a powerful one in Christianity with deep
biblical roots, reaching back to the early chapters of Genesis. It
expresses a very basic human instinct - the longing for protection,
peace and happiness. So it is not surprising that the world is full
of blessings for that most basic of human provisions - a place to
call home. Peter Watkins has collected together over 100 house
blessings from widely differing cultures and sources - the Bible,
Celtic spirituality, Latin prayers (translated here!), prayers of
St Francis and other saints, poems of blessing from Robert Herrick
and other literary figures, contemporary liturgies for rites of
blessing for each room of a home - and much more.
Discover the hymns that influenced US presidents. ""Presidential
Praise: Our Presidents and Their Hymns"" offers the most
comprehensive coverage ever written of the influence of hymns on
the lives and administrations of America's presidents. Each chapter
begins with Michael Williams' concise presentation of each
president's path to the White House and his accomplishments and
failures as president. D. Edward Spann then introduces how each
president regarded music, whether or not he was musical, and music
in the White House during each president's administration. These
hymns may be related to developments in the life of the president,
including his spiritual journey, major decisions he had to make as
president, or even his selection of the inaugural Scripture. Spann
then tells the story of how the hymn was written, both the words
and the music. Presenting this scholarly material in an inspiring
manner is part of the delight of the book. In doing so, the book
covers a panorama of hymnody from 1614 to the 1980s. After an
interpretation of the words, it is demonstrated why the chosen
hymns were meaningful to each president. The format of each chapter
reveals this special emphasis that can't be found elsewhere.
