  • The World, the Flesh, and the Devil Week 2
    “Not Today Satan” The World, The Flesh, and The Devil Downtown April 18, 2021 Last week we did an introductory overview of what have been called the three enemies of the soul. The world, the flesh, and the devil. We looked at Ephesians chapter 2, which mentions all 3 of them. Today...we’re talking about the devil. My guess is that this topic is, for some of you, interesting. For others maybe off-putting. And no doubt for those of you who are new with us this morning you are currently wondering if you’ve made a horrible mistake. ...maybe. The answer to that is maybe. To get our bearings we will look at John chapter 8, which is one of the longest sections of Jesus’ teaching on the devil. John 8:31-47 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Ok, so we are entering into a discussion about truth here They answered him, “We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will become free’?” Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. They are currently occupied by the Romans, Which is why they wanted the Messiah to pick up a sword.

  • Reading Groups Collection Multiple-Copy Titles Available for Loan Master List Revised May 2019
    Reading Groups Collection Multiple-Copy Titles Available for Loan Master list revised May 2019 Susan ABULHAWA - Mornings in Jenin (2011, 352 pages) Palestine, 1948. A mother clutches her six-month-old son as Israeli soldiers march through the village of Ein Hod. In a split second, her son is snatched from her arms and the fate of the Abulheja family is changed forever. Forced into a refugee camp in Jenin , the family struggles to rebuild their world. Their stories unfold through the eyes of the youngest sibling, Amal, the daughter born in the camp who will eventually find herself alone in the United States; the eldest son who loses everything in the struggle for freedom; the stolen son who grows up as an Israeli, becoming an enemy soldier to his own brother. Mornings in Jenin is a novel of love and loss, war and oppression, and heartbreak and hope, spanning five countries and four generations of one of the most intractable conflicts of our lifetime. Ayobami ADEBAYO - Stay with me (2017, 298 pages) Yejide is hoping for a miracle, for a child. It is all her husband wants, all her mother-in-law wants, and she has tried everything - arduous pilgrimages, medical consultations, dances with prophets, appeals to God. But when her in- laws insist upon a new wife, it is too much for Yejide to bear. It will lead to jealousy, betrayal and despair. Unravelling against the social and political turbulence of '80s Nigeria, Stay with Me sings with the voices, colours, joys and fears of its surroundings. Ayobami Adebayo weaves a devastating story of the fragility of married love, the undoing of family, the wretchedness of grief and the all-consuming bonds of motherhood.

  • K- 8 Art Curriculum Draft September 2021 Principles Found in the Diocese of Marquette K-8 Art Curriculum
    Diocese of Marquette K-8 Art Curriculum September 2021 K- 8 Art Curriculum Draft September 2021 Principles found in the Diocese of Marquette K-8 Art Curriculum Art, the Human Person and God Created "in the image of God," man also expresses the truth of his relationship with God the Creator by the beauty of his artistic works. Indeed, art is a distinctively human form of expression; beyond the search for the necessities of life which is common to all living creatures, art is a freely given superabundance of the human being's inner riches. Arising from talent given by the Creator and from man's own effort, art is a form of practical wisdom, uniting knowledge and skill, to give form to the truth of reality in a language accessible to sight or hearing. To the extent that it is inspired by truth and love of beings, art bears a certain likeness to God's activity in what he has created. Like any other human activity, art is not an absolute end in itself, but is ordered to and ennobled by the ultimate end of man. CCC2501 (CCC: Catechism of the Catholic Church) The Way of Beauty To travel the way of beauty implies educating youth for beauty, helping them develop a critical spirit to discern the various offerings of media culture, and aid them to shape their senses and character in order to grow and lead into true maturity. Beauty itself cannot be reduced to simple pleasure of the senses: this would be to deprive it of its universality, its supreme value, which is transcendent.
