Ergebnis für "Susanna" in Christentum

Für Freunde, die sich einen tieferen Blick in die Bibel wünschen, habe ich einige Gedanken zu jedem Kapitel gesammelt. Wir fangen ganz vorne im Alten Testament an. Mal sehen, wohin es uns treibt....

An intelligent, strong-willed woman, Susanna Wesley suffered much in a male-dominated world while she prepared her children to succeed in it. Her fiery, independent spirit is evident as Arnold Dallimore sets the mother of Methodism within her culture and time in England. Though Samuel Wesley figures prominently in his wife's story, as do John, Charles, and the other children, the story remains fixed on Susanna. Excerpts from Susanna Wesley's letters and writings of her husband and children are included.

This is the story of one of Church history's most revered women, the godly mother of John and Charles Wesley. This biography recounts the story of a woman who used her strong leadership and faith to raise well educated and spiritually disciplined children. Her unwavering devotion to God and family in the face of grief, poverty, and a sometimes difficult marriage is a tremendous inspiration.

The Historie of Susanna, in Book of Daniel (The Septuagint)

"The role of women in the Bible has been a universal source of discussion for generations. The Abrahamic faiths which emerged from ancient biblical history have turned to the scriptures for advice and role models for women's behaviors and purpose. In fact, the scriptures have recorded guidelines defining these things. Viewed through the lens of culture, some writers have attempted to interpret significance of the scripture lessons and stories about women in relationship to current events. For some, the ancient stories no longer reflect the woman of today. Feminist viewpoints have explored the value of supposed freedoms, and certainly dealt headfirst with issues previously unspoken. Women have indeed suffered through cultural expectations which have produced mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse, slavery, marginalization, and a host of social ills. But, the truth is that the scriptures are the source for understanding how God would have his womanly creation live life to the fullest."

Susanna Tamaro raccoglie la sfida di "incrociare gli occhi dell'Agnello", di quel Gesù che è stato "re senza eserciti e senza esecuzioni". Ripercorrendo le quattordici stazioni della Via Crucis, dalla condanna del Cristo sino alla deposizione nel sepolcro, l'autrice affianca a ogni passo, a ogni tappa, una meditazione e una preghiera. Ci parla di fede, ma calandola nel vivo del nostro tempo, che pare aver perso la rotta indicata dagli insegnamenti evangelici e sacrifica ad altri dèi, i cui nomi sono noti: massa, denaro, potere, senza escludere gli aspetti disumanizzanti della globalizzazione.
