The Right Kind of Strong
Award-winning author Mary Kassian provides readers a biblical guide to becoming the strong, resilient, capable women God created them to be. Our culture teaches us that it's important for women to be strong. The Bible agrees. Unfortunately, culture's idea of what makes a woman strong doesn't always align with the Bible's. As a result, Christians often have a skewed view of what constitutes strength. In The Right Kind of Strong, Mary Kassian delves into Paul's exhortation in 2 Timothy about the women of the church in Ephesus and uncovers warnings and truths about seven habits that can sap women's strength. She helps readers avoid these pitfalls by carefully considering the people they allow into their lives, taking control of their minds by taking every thought captive, quickly and regularly confessing sin, intentionally engaging their emotions, living out what they’re learning, developing confident convictions, and embracing their human weakness and leaning on the Lord. She reveals how, by implementing these seven habits, Christian women can walk in freedom and grow to be strong God's way.
Mary Strong Clemens, a Botanical Pilgrimage
This is the story of Mary Strong Clemens and one woman's efforts to supply the "real" botanists of yesterday and today with materials for their research. The life of Mary Strong Clemens is 'history from the bottom up'. There is value in hearing stories from the voice of an ordinary person who accomplishes out-of-the ordinary things. The book begins with her humble beginning and continues for nearly nine decades of rambling around the fringes of the globe collecting and affecting those she met with her stoic faith. Mary Clemens makes us appreciate the manner in which collecting trips of 100 years ago were managed on frugal budgets.
Mary in the Christian Tradition
Sr. Kathleen searches for and develops a Marian theology very much in tune with today's issues and attitudes. She reflects on Marian symbols and traditional images hoping the Church can reclaim Mary as a woman of faith, a model disciple, proclaiming a song of liberation for the poor and oppressed of our world today.
Congressional Record
The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings and debates of the United States Congress. It is published daily when Congress is in session. The Congressional Record began publication in 1873. Debates for sessions prior to 1873 are recorded in The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States (1789-1824), the Register of Debates in Congress (1824-1837), and the Congressional Globe (1833-1873)
Moved by Mary
The Virgin Mary continues to attract devotees to her images and shrines. In Moved by Mary, anthropologists, geographers and historians explore how people and groups around the world identify and join with Mary in their struggle against social injustice, and how others mobilize Mary to impose ideas and rules and legitimize acts of violence and suppression.Far from an outdated practice of little relevance to the modern world, Marian pilgrimage expresses the deep and urgent concerns of a wide range of people. With examples of Marian pilgrimages in Europe, America, South America, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific, Moved by Mary explores the ways in which men and women of different ages and religious, political, social-economic and ethnic backgrounds empower themselves to deal with modern-day issues with Mary's help. The ethnographic cases reveal the cultural and devotional variation of Marian pilgrimage, but also global similarities. Collectively, the contributors to Moved by Mary show how in many places religion dramatically suffuses everyday life.
