Sinopse

Religious Roles explores the evolving roles of women in religion, examining how increased participation and leadership are reshaping theological education and religious institutions. The book delves into the historical exclusion of women and their subsequent inclusion, highlighting the impact on theological discourse and practical religious settings. It argues that this shift is not just about gender equality but a fundamental transformation requiring a reevaluation of traditional doctrines.

 
The book's approach is both theoretical and practical, drawing from feminist theology, sociology of religion, and historical studies to analyze these changes. For example, the rise of feminist and liberation theologies has significantly influenced theological curricula. Through case studies and analysis of theological texts, the book demonstrates how women are reshaping religious thought and practice.

 
The book systematically progresses from outlining historical barriers to exploring shifts in theological education and analyzing case studies of women in leadership across different religious traditions. It culminates in a discussion of the implications for the future of religious institutions, addressing challenges and opportunities in becoming more inclusive spaces. This comprehensive analysis makes Religious Roles a valuable resource for understanding the intersection of gender, religion, and social change.

    This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No.53 by M. O’C. Walshe, 'Why Buddhism?, Why Theravada?, Theravada, Mahayana, Hinayana: Three Essays' found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. II.
     
    Excerpt from Theravada, Mahayana, Hinayana by Maurice Walshe
     
    'Let us return to “Basic Buddhism.” The third section of the Path consists of three steps: right effort, right mindfulness and right concentration. That some effort is needed is surely obvious, though some “Zenful” characters in the West have been heard to deny it. They should try just one week in a Zen monastery! Right mindfulness has been declared by the Buddha to be the “one and only way” to liberation. It is the way of vipassanā—insight-wisdom. And how else could wisdom be gained but by “mindfulness and clear awareness”? Right concentration includes various things, among them the four Brahmavihāras: the development of loving kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity. So by practising these two steps of the Path we can develop the “twin pillars” of the Mahayana: wisdom and compassion. Perhaps it scarcely matters whether we set out to become an Arahant or a Bodhisattva. But suppose a Bodhisattva, by practising too much mindfulness, became an Arahant by mistake… That would be terrible. Or would it?'

    Your thought life determines your whole life. The enemy wants you chained to hopeless, powerless, and worthless thoughts so you don't trust your victorious God. Do you ever think, I can't do this . . . I'll never be . . . I'm not good enough . . . There is no way . . . ? 
     
    The enemy lies, but what supersedes those lies is truth. Truth, when seized, has the power to speak louder than fear, insecurity, and worry. Only by exchanging the lies of the enemy for the mind of Christ will your mind become truly rewired, renewed, and transformed. 
     
    In Take Every Thought Captive, Kelly Balarie shows you how to  
     
    ● immediately recognize the lies of the enemy  
    ● effectively replace those lies with God's truth  
    ● continually connect with the mind of Christ 
    ● proactively recognize schemes of the enemy before they start 
     
    Your mind doesn't have to hold you back any longer; God's truth has all power to set you free.

    A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE  FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE ROTTERS’ CLUB AND MIDDLE ENGLAND  In the heady summer of 1977, a naïve young woman called Calista sets out from Athens to venture into the wider world. On a Greek island that has been turned into a film set, she finds herself working for the famed Hollywood director Billy Wilder, about whom she knows almost nothing. But the time she spends in this glamorous, unfamiliar new life will change her for good.  While Calista is thrilled with her new adventure, Wilder himself is living with the realization that his star may be on the wane. Rebuffed by Hollywood, he has financed his new film with German money, and when Calista follows him to Munich for the shooting of further scenes, she finds herself joining him on a journey of memory into the dark heart of his family history.  In a novel that is at once a tender coming-of-age story and an intimate portrait of one of cinema’s most intriguing figures, Jonathan Coe turns his gaze on the nature of time and fame, of family and the treacherous lure of nostalgia. When the world is catapulting towards change, do you hold on for dear life or decide it's time to let go?  “Outstanding... In a sense, the novel toward which Coe’s fiction has always been heading.”—Los Angeles Review of Books

    Emotions are confusing, frustrating, and scary, but they don’t have to be. Everyone experiences emotions―some easy, some difficult. Dealing with them should be common sense, and yet it isn’t. Even though emotions are not uncommon to the human experience, we lack the language to fully understand and express them. This failure to understand can often lead to frustration and broken relationships. In The Path to Wholeness, Dr. Mark Mayfield teaches readers how to slow down and explore the way our emotions develop. He examines the toll unexpressed emotions take on an individual and highlights the importance of paying attention to them. Start your journey to emotional wholeness and be transformed. This book will challenge you to  look inward at your own experience and your own history;  reflect on how these things have shaped, informed, and influenced you, your family, and your relationships;  dissect your current understanding of emotions, your emotional vocabulary, and your emotional responses; and  follow practical and actionable steps to rethink and rework how you see and experience emotions
