This document summarizes the story of a minister who offered to let two homeless drug addicts live with him in his spare bedroom after they came to his office seeking help. He had concerns about the risks but felt called to help them in their time of need. They accepted his offer and moved in that night. The minister reflects on living out his faith and being challenged to help others in a meaningful way, rather than just preaching to others. He wonders if he will be changed by this experience of opening his home to those in need.
Advent 2012: Second Sunday - Women of CourageKAIROS Canada
KAIROS’ new Advent 2012 resource, 'Seeking Shelter: An ecumenical Advent justice journey', is now available! Inspired by Mary and Joseph’s search for shelter, the resource is based on Las Posadas, a Central American and Mexican tradition in which actors playing Mary and Joseph walk through town searching for shelter, accompanied by local church members singing and carrying bright lanterns. Turned away again and again, they finally find householders who welcome them in. Today, that search for shelter is a reality for many in our world, whether the shelter people seek is fair wages, land rights, or clean water. What is our response?
The pastoral letter calls for the Catholic laity in the Philippines to wake up from passivity and share responsibility for the Church with priests. It recommends cultivating a fresh sense of co-responsibility between clergy and laity, with priests being more open to sharing responsibilities and exploring ways for clergy and laity to work together respectfully. The laity are urged to no longer remain tied just to tasks within the Church, but to apply Gospel values to transforming society in areas like politics and business that require systemic renewal.

It stresses the role of lay Catholics in transforming society through their participation and influence in various spheres like family, business, politics and media. Saints Lorenzo Ruiz and Pedro Calungson are presented as inspirations for lay people.

Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth, England. His most famous work, A Christmas Carol, tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge through five chapters or "staves." Dickens drew from his own experiences, such as his father's imprisonment in debtors' prison, which left a deep impression and influenced his writing. The story is set in 1800s London and describes elements of life at that time, including doors, food, pubs, and asylums like Bedlam which were known for their cruelty.
The document summarizes key characters from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Fred is Scrooge's kind nephew who loves Christmas. Ebenezer Scrooge is initially cold-hearted but is visited by ghosts to prompt him to change. Tiny Tim is Bob Cratchit's ill son who could die without treatment. Fezziwig throws lively Christmas parties and was once admired by Scrooge. The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future each haunt Scrooge to encourage him to become more caring.
The document provides context and analysis of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. It discusses Dickens' purpose in writing the novella to deliver themes about Christmas and humanity. It analyzes the character of Scrooge and how Dickens uses him to convey these themes through changes depicted by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. The document also provides historical context on Victorian London and Dickens' life that influenced his writing of the story.
This document provides context and analysis of Charles Dickens' 1843 novella A Christmas Carol. It discusses the Victorian era influences on the story, including utilitarian philosophy which viewed people as cogs in the economic machine. The story uses ghosts to transform the miser Ebenezer Scrooge and advocate for generosity, charity, and community over self-interest. Through the themes of redemption, fear, wealth/poverty, and ignorance, Dickens celebrates the Christmas spirit of fellowship and criticizes the societal effects of the philosophies and policies of his time.
Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol uses symbolism to convey its themes. Scrooge represents the miserly and cold aspects of Victorian society that Dickens wanted to change. Bob Cratchit symbolizes the spirit of Christmas. Various ghosts, including Marley's ghost and chains, symbolize themes like redemption, kindness, and the importance of memory. The story ultimately conveys that people are capable of change for the better and that caring for others is more important than wealth.

It asks questions about key details like the number of chapters, the author, locations in the story, characters like Scrooge and Bob Cratchit, and events that happen to Scrooge after being visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. All the questions are answered correctly, identifying details like Scrooge being taken to see his past with his sister Frances and Bob Cratchit's family celebrating with a small goose and pudding.

The document discusses cultivating compassion for the lost by focusing on evangelism and the Great Commission. It notes that while not everyone is called to street preach, all Christians should be sharing their faith. The document urges readers to keep eternity in view and live with the goal of saving others. It argues that activities like serving, praying, and Bible reading are not spiritual gifts but rather demonstrations of love, obedience and communication with God. The ultimate message is that evangelism is about obedience to God's command to share one's faith, not a special gift or ability.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
