Transcripts of the Sacred in Nigeria - Beautiful, Monstrous, Ridiculous (Hardcover): Nimi Wariboko Transcripts of the Sacred in Nigeria - Beautiful, Monstrous, Ridiculous (Hardcover)
Nimi Wariboko
R1,876 Discovery Miles 18 760 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Transcripts of the Sacred in Nigeria explores how the sacred plays itself out in contemporary Africa. It offers a creative analysis of the logics and dynamics of the sacred (understood as the constellation of im/possibility available to a given community) in religion, politics, epistemology, economic development, and reactionary violence. Using the tools of philosophy, postcolonial criticism, political theory, African studies, religious studies, and cultural studies, Wariboko reveals the intricate connections between the sacred and the existential conditions that characterize disorder, terror, trauma, despair, and hope in the postcolonial Africa. The sacred, Wariboko argues, is not about religion or divinity but the set of possibilities opened to a people or denied them, the sum total of possibilities conceivable given their level of social, technological, and economic development. These possibilities profoundly speak to the present political moment in sub-Saharan Africa.

Ghosts of Kanungu - Fertility, Secrecy & Exchange in the Great Lakes of East Africa (Paperback): Richard Vokes Ghosts of Kanungu - Fertility, Secrecy & Exchange in the Great Lakes of East Africa (Paperback)
Richard Vokes
R720 Discovery Miles 7 200 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Shortlisted for the Herskovits Award, this book throws light on secrecy and violence in Uganda, Rwanda and the Great Lakes area of East Africa. On 17 March 2000 several hundred members of a charismatic Christian sect, the Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God (MRTC), burnt to death in the group's headquarters in the Southwest Ugandan village of Kanungu. Days later the Ugandan police discovered a series of mass graves containing over 400 bodies on various other properties belonging to the sect. Was this mass suicide or mass murder? Based on eight years of historical andethnographic research, Ghosts of Kanungu provides a comprehensive and scholarly account of the MRTC and of the events leading up to the inferno. It argues that none of these events can be understood without reference to abroader social history of Southwestern Uganda during the twentieth century, in which anti-colonial movements, Catholic White Fathers missionaries, colonial relocation schemes, the breakdown of the Ugandan state, post-war reconstruction, the onset of HIV/AIDS, and the transformation of the regional Nyabingi fertility cult into a Marian church with worldwide connections, all played their part.

On Secularization - Towards a Revised General Theory (Hardcover): David Martin On Secularization - Towards a Revised General Theory (Hardcover)
David Martin
R5,235 Discovery Miles 52 350 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

'Secularization' has been hotly debated since it was first subjected to critical attention in the mid-sixties by David Martin, before he sketched a 'General Theory' in 1969. 'On Secularization' presents David Martin's reassessment of the key issues: with particular regard to the special situation of religion in Western Europe, and questions in the global context including Pentecostalism in Latin America and Africa. Concluding with examinations of Pluralism, Christian Language, and Christianity and Politics, this book offers students and other readers of social theory and sociology of religion an invaluable reappraisal of Christianity and Secularization. It represents the most comprehensive sociology of contemporary Christianity, set in historical depth.

Nature and the Environment in Amish Life (Paperback): David L. McConnell, Marilyn D. Loveless Nature and the Environment in Amish Life (Paperback)
David L. McConnell, Marilyn D. Loveless
R1,174 Discovery Miles 11 740 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Amish relationship to the environment is much more complicated than you might think. The pastoral image of Amish communities living simply and in touch with the land strikes a deep chord with many Americans. Environmentalists have lauded the Amish as iconic models for a way of life that is local, self-sufficient, and in harmony with nature. But the Amish themselves do not always embrace their ecological reputation, and critics have long questioned the portrayal of the Amish as models of environmental stewardship. In Nature and the Environment in Amish Life, David L. McConnell and Marilyn D. Loveless examine how this prevailing notion of the environmentally conscious Amish fits with the changing realities of their lives. Drawing on 150 interviews conducted over the course of 7 years, as well as a survey of household resource use among Amish and non-Amish people, they explore how the Amish understand nature in their daily lives and how their actions impact the natural world. Arguing that there is considerable diversity in Amish engagements with nature at home, at school, at work, and outdoors, McConnell and Loveless show how the Amish response to regional and global environmental issues, such as watershed pollution and climate change, reveals their deep skepticism of environmentalists. They also demonstrate that Amish households are not uniformly lower in resource use compared to their rural, non-Amish neighbors, though aspects of their home economy are relatively self-sufficient. The first comprehensive study of Amish understandings of the natural world, this compelling book complicates the image of the Amish and provides a more realistic understanding of the Amish relationship with the environment.

Gender, Power and the Unitarians in England, 1760-1860 (Paperback): Ruth Watts Gender, Power and the Unitarians in England, 1760-1860 (Paperback)
Ruth Watts
R1,615 Discovery Miles 16 150 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This new study explores the role the Unitarians played in female emancipation. Many leading figures of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries were Unitarian, or were heavily influenced by Unitarian ideas, including: Mary Wollstonecraft, Elizabeth Gaskell, George Eliot, and Florence Nightingale. Ruth Watts examines how far they were successful in challenging the ideas and social conventions affecting women. In the process she reveals the complex relationship between religion, gender, class and education and her study will be essential reading for those studying the origins of the feminist movement, nineteenth-century gender history, religious history or the history of education.

Hans Mol and the Sociology of Religion (Hardcover): Adam J. Powell Hans Mol and the Sociology of Religion (Hardcover)
Adam J. Powell
R4,192 Discovery Miles 41 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Hans Mol was born in the Netherlands during the 1920s. His imprisonment by the Gestapo during World War II began a long intellectual journey, exploring the role of religion in society. His work on the sociology of religion throughout the 20th and 21st Century is distinctive in its quest for both methodological and existential balance Part One of this book includes a brief outline of Mol's most influential theory as originally explicated in Identity and the Sacred (1976). This is followed by a look at the initial reception of that theory in relation to the competing concepts of Mol's contemporaries. Part Two is comprised of four previously-unpublished essays written by Mol during the 70s and 80s. Covering topics from evolution to evangelicalism, the papers display the sweeping ambition of this sociologist as well as the tone and contours of his intellectual articulation. In the Postscript this volume concludes with select transcripts of interviews conducted between Adam Powell and Hans Mol during the Spring of 2012. This volume of Mol's work will be of keen interest to academics and students with an interest in the sociology of religion post-World War II and the development of contemporary Christian theology.

Mormonism: The Basics (Hardcover): John Charles Duffy, David Howlett Mormonism: The Basics (Hardcover)
John Charles Duffy, David Howlett
R2,869 Discovery Miles 28 690 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Although often regarded as marginal or obscure, Mormonism is a significant American religious minority, numerically and politically. The successes and struggles of this U.S. born religion reveal much about how religion operates in U.S. society. Mormonism: The Basics introduces the teachings, practices, evolution, and internal diversity of this movement, whose cultural icons range from Mitt Romney to the Twilight saga, from young male missionaries in white shirts and ties to polygamous women in pastel prairie dresses. This is the first introductory text on Mormonism that tracks not only the mainstream LDS but also two other streams within the movement-the liberalized RLDS and the polygamous Fundamentalists-thus showing how Mormons have pursued different approaches to defining their identity and their place in society. The book addresses these questions. Are Mormons Christian, and why does it matter? How have Mormons worked out their relationship to the state? How have Mormons diverged in their thinking about gender and sexuality? How do rituals and regulations shape Mormon lives? What types of sacred spaces have Mormons created? What strategies have Mormons pursued to establish a global presence? Mormonism: The Basics is an ideal introduction for anyone wanting to understand this religion within its primarily American but increasingly globalized contexts.

Passport to Heaven (RLE Women and Religion) - Gender Roles in the Unification Church (Paperback): Kathleen S. Lowney Passport to Heaven (RLE Women and Religion) - Gender Roles in the Unification Church (Paperback)
Kathleen S. Lowney
R1,152 Discovery Miles 11 520 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book focuses on the gender roles within the Unification Church, and on particularly the gender roles as expressed through the vows of marriage. It examines the more widely shared patriarchal assumptions about women in a circumscribed socio-religious environment, with the Church's gender role system being investigated largely on the level of its theological explanations for gender roles. The Church's ethos, its lived reality, is also examined, and for this many interviews have been conducted with the 'blessed', the married couples. First published in 1992.

Dr. W. Cleon Skousen spent the majority of his life researching the gospel, the U.S. Constitution, the founding of America and writing numerous books and articles on the topic, and he is one of the most well-known, respected defenders of America and the gospel the world has ever known. At the time of his passing in 2006, his work was not finished. His book The Cleansing of America, written in 1994 and given into the care and keeping of his sons, is now being brought forth for the first time ever. Included in these pages are the events and stages the Lord has predicted, through his servants, the winding-up scences of this world. It helps the reader understand: the nature of prophecy, the known chronology of prophetic events, and the importance of staying close to the Lord and his prophets during the difficult and challenging years prior to the Second Coming. We are fast approaching those prophetic events. Some are upon us even now.

Learn to partner with the innumerable angels in the heavenly realms!

The Holy Spirit spoke a powerful word to Pastor Tim Sheets:

When you raise the bar, I’ll raise the anointing. When my heirs raise the bar, I’ll pour out a new Pentecost greater than the outpouring in the book of Acts.

The Bible says that all Christians have been brought into a heavenly dimension because of Jesus’ blood. Being born again doesn’t simply secure your place in Heaven; it makes Heaven accessible right here, right now. This heavenly access includes “innumerable angels!” (See Hebrews 12:22.)

Dr. Tim Sheets is a bestselling author, apostolic leader, and biblical authority who teaches everyday believers how to engage God’s army of angels. In this dynamic new book, Sheets helps you recognize different categories and ranks of angels, and the vital roles they play in your daily life.

In Angel Armies on Assignment, Tim Sheets helps you…

  • Identify different orders, categories, and ranks of angelic beings.
  • Recognize the supernatural roles that each kind of angel plays.
  • Discover the purposes of God by discerning the different kinds of angelic activity.
  • Flow with the Holy Spirit’s movement as you partner with His angel armies.
  • Operate in alignment with God’s “supernatural standard.”

When you learn how God’s angels operate, you can partner with them to release Heaven’s plans and purposes over your life!
Pentecostal Orthodoxy - Toward an Ecumenism of the Spirit (Paperback): Emilio Alvarez, John Behr Pentecostal Orthodoxy - Toward an Ecumenism of the Spirit (Paperback)
Emilio Alvarez, John Behr
R617 R509 Discovery Miles 5 090 Save R108 (18%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

"Can anything orthodox come from Pentecostalism?" This recasting of Nathaniel's familiar question from the Gospel is a fair summary of many modern Christians' assessment of the Pentecostal tradition. Yet in recent years, a growing number of Pentecostals have been turning afresh to the ancient, creedal Christian faith. Bishop Emilio Alvarez has himself been at the forefront of this movement. In Pentecostal Orthodoxy he introduces the phenomenon, and extends the project of paleo-orthodox ressourcement (associated with scholars such as Thomas Oden and Robert Webber) to include orthodox expressions within Pentecostalism, particularly his own Afro-Latino Pentecostal movement. This book is a manifesto of sorts, promising not only to open up the possibility of a genuinely orthodox Pentecostalism, but to reframe modern ecumenical dialogue as well.
