Most of you probably know by now that Piecemakers is moving to a new Home right across Adams in the beautiful Heritage Bank building. 1985 will bring new services, new classes, new added space and an ever renewing of our appreciation for our customers, teachers and the opportunity to serve. We hope to make our new home — your new home with added services to help all of you make your house a home. We hope also that besides adding new services, all of you will feel free to come and chat — have a cup of coffee — or just sit and rest — and that Piecemakers becomes your home away from home. Old PIECEMAKERS will close its doors DECEMBER 31, and the doors to our new Piecemakers home will open January 7 at 10:00a.m. The old familiar Piecemakers faces will be there, and you’ll see more and more of our robust, grass roots tiling men. We’re also closing our tiling-tole store on Mesa Verde East, and the two stores are becoming one. So all of you who had to run across Mesa Verde East to say “Hi” to Judy – Trish – Marj – Kris – Carol – Kerry or Debbie — or talk to one of the men about tole or tiling — it all can take place at our new home — 1720 ADAMS.

At night when I look up in the sky And see the stars — not one awry — I wonder, LORD — how great You Are, Numbering and knowing every star. And just today I watched a bee And wondered how You made them see I wonder — how did You make the birds to sing And color the flowers — I wonder such things! How did You make each breath of air, Our nose to breathe, our ears to hear? And then I wonder what’s beyond our Earth And are there other planets on which there is birth And death and sadness and sorrow — And hopes that seem to live in the morrow. Oh, dear LORD — there’s so much more I wonder about — sometimes my head gets sore. So I’ll leave it all to You to go and play, Goodbye, dear LORD, we’ll meet some day. And then I’ll tell You the biggest wonder Is You, dear LORD — I ponder and ponder — Do You have a white beard and long white hair? Do You think and laugh and breathe our air? After seeing all the wonder of Your MIGHT, I love You, dear LORD — and now Good Night.

Herein, need emerges for a new, ecclesial, trinitarian, and christological paradigm to identify purposes, ends, and goods of Christian marriage. The dissertation‘s body develops the foundation and framework of this new paradigm: a Common Way in Christ. I find this paradigm by putting marriage in dialogue with an ecclesial practice already the subject of rich trinitarian, christological, ecclesial theological development: consecrated religious life.

  • THE NATURE of 1-IRT.=TAN Myttivi TN the THOUGHT of BARON -VON HUGEL and GEORGE TYRRELL JOHN BERRY
    THE NATURE OF 1-IRT.=TAN MYTTIvI TN THE THOUGHT OF BARON -VON HUGEL AND GEORGE TYRRELL JOHN BERRY SUBMITTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Ph.D THE UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS DEPARTMENT OF THEOLOGY AND RELIGIOUS STUDIES JANUARY 1989 This thesis seeks to establish the place of Baron von aigel and George Tyrrell in the revival of interest in mysticism at the beginning of the present century. Though leading figures in the modernist movement in the Roman Catholic Church, their collaboration on the subject of mysticism was central to their friendship and work. They helped to retrieve the central concerns of mystical theology after a retreat from mysticism which had affected the Church since the condemnation of Quietism in 1699. Their account of Christian mysticism, which involved a critique of Buddhism, neo-Platonism and pantheism, rested on a world- affirming attitude to creation, a balance between divine transcendence and immanence and the articulation of a legitimate panentleism. It also involved a positive acceptance of the bodily-spiritual unity of human nature and ordinary experience as the locus of mystical encounter with God. Their account also emphasised the reality of direct contact between God and the individual, and the affective and cognitive dimensions of mystical experience. They asserted the centrality of mystical union as a dynamic communion of life, love and action which is the primary goal of the Christian life. They emphasised the necessity of contemplation, understood not as passive inaction, but as a profound energising of the soul. Asceticism, the embracing of suffering, self-discipline and a right ordering of human affection, was also judged indispensable.

    Devoted to practical Christianity. A monthly magazine issued the 1st of the month by UNITY SCHOOL OF CHRISTIANITY 917 Tracy, Kansas City, Missouri Charles Fillmore and Myrtle Fillmore, Editors Entered as second-class matter, July 15, 1891, at the post office at Kansas City, Missouri, under the act of March 3, 1879. Accepted for mailing at special rate of postage, provided for in section 1103, act of October 3, 1917, authorised October 28, 1922. VoL 68 KANSAS CITY, MO., FEBRUARY, 1928 No. 2 THE PURPOSE OF UNITY SCHOOL NITY School of Christianity was founded in 1889, in Kansas City, Mo. The Unity move­ U ment has spread to every country in the world, but the headquarters are still in Kansas City. Unity School of Christianity is an independent edu­ cational institution. It aims to teach mankind to apply the doctrine of Jesus Christ in all the affairs of life. Its purpose is not to found a new church or sect, but to help and to teach men and women of every church — and also those who have no church affiliations— to use and to prove the eternal Truth taught and used by the Master. The Unity teachings explain the action of mind, the connecting link between God and man. They ex­ plain how the mind affects the body, producing discord or harmony, sickness or health, how it brings man into understanding of divine law, harmony, health, and peace, here and now. W e suggest that you accept what, in our literature, appears to you to be Truth, and that you withhold judgment on the remainder until you understand it better.

With his gift for narrative and the transparency of one whose passion is the pursuit of God’s presence, he ushers the reader first into “An Audience with the King” and then “Into the Kingdom.” The Scripture says, “He who has ears, let him hear….” To the reader, I declare, “He who reads, let him read….” The experience will change your life as you find yourself journeying from The Secret Place to The Hidden Kingdom. —Tommy Tenney Author, The God Chasers President & CEO, GodChasers.network What Dr. Fife offers us in The Hidden Kingdom is not a how-to book but rather a “you-can-too” book.
