But somehow the oft-repeated tale of Christ's Passion can become too familiar, too formalized, for us to experience its incredible immediacy. The meditations in Reliving the Passion follow the story as given in the gospel of Mark -- from the moment when the chief priests plot to kill Jesus to the Resurrection. But these readings are more than a recounting of events; they are an imaginary reenactment, leading the reader to re-experience the Passion or perhaps see it fully for the very first time.\r\n\r\nRelated electronic resource:\tPublisher description http:\/\/catdir.loc.gov\/catdir\/enhancements\/fy0633\/91032854-d.html\n\nPublished in: Grand Rapids, Mich.\n\nPhysical description: 156 pages ; 21 cm.","bookEdition":null,"offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Book","name":"Restore me : litanies, prayers, and dialogues for Lent and Easter \/ Craig M.

In School Prayer, Robert Alley examines the history behind the writing of the religion clauses of the First Amendment, the courts' interpretations of these clauses over two centuries, and the debates in Congress over their application, especially as regards prayer in public schools. Alley begins with an extensive analysis of the writings and actions of James Madison, described as \"the architect of the religion clauses\" and \"the single most important voice for religious liberty in the nation's history.\" Madison is viewed as a proponent of strict separation between church and state and as opposed to any form of state-sponsored religious establishment. Alley then discusses the history of the \"protestant hegemony\" in the nineteenth century and the attitude of messianism as reflected in presidential pronouncements on the relation of religion to government. All this is presented as background to the debates in the latter half of our own century over the role of prayer in public schools. Alley reviews some thirty years of congressional testimony and key Supreme Court decisions. He gives special attention to the highly controversial Engel v. Vitale decision in 1962, which banned the recitation of a prayer composed by the New York State Board of Regents in public schools. This decision unleashed a storm of protests, which has continued to this day and has given rise to numerous congressional proposals to amend or overturn the Court's ruling. Extensive selections from the arguments on both sides of the controversy afford the reader a firsthand look into the many deliberations surrounding this sensitive and timely matter.\n\nPublished in: Buffalo, N.Y.\n\nPhysical description: 273 pages ; 24 cm","bookEdition":null,"offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":6,"item":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Book","name":"Self-talk, imagery, and prayer in counseling \/ H.
