Free Download Robert D. Heaton, "The Shepherd of Hermas as Scriptura Non Grata: From Popularity in Early Christianity to Exclusion from the New Testament"
English | ISBN: 1666921866 | 2023 | 404 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Composed within the first Christian century by a Roman named Hermas, the Shepherd remains a mysterious and underestimated book to scholars and laypeople alike. Robert D. Heaton argues that early Christians mainly received the Shepherd positively and accepted it unproblematically alongside texts that would ultimately be canonized, requiring decisive actions to exclude it from the late-emerging collection of texts now known as the New Testament. Freshly evaluating the evidence for its popularity in patristic treatises, manuscript recoveries, and Christian material culture, Heaton propounds an interpretation of the Shepherd of Hermas as a book meant to guide his readers toward salvation. Ultimately, Heaton depicts the loss of the Shepherd from the closed catalogue of Christian scriptures as a deliberate constrictive move by the fourth-century Alexandrian bishop Athanasius, who found it useless for his political, theological, and ecclesiological objectives and instead characterized it as a book favored by his heretical enemies. While the book’s detractors succeeded in derailing its diffusion for centuries, the survival of the

Free Download Helping the Good Shepherd: Pastoral Counselors in a Psychotherapeutic Culture, 1925-1975 By Susan E. Myers-Shirk
2009 | 320 Pages | ISBN: 0801890470 | PDF | 4 MB
This history of Protestant pastoral counseling in America examines the role of pastoral counselors in the construction and articulation of a liberal moral sensibility. Analyzing the relationship between religion and science in the twentieth century, Susan E. Myers-Shirk locates this sensibility in the counselors’ intellectual engagement with the psychological sciences. Informed by the principles of psychology and psychoanalysis, pastoral counselors sought a middle ground between science and Christianity in advising anxious parishioners who sought their help for personal problems such as troubled children, violent spouses, and alcohol and drug abuse. Myers-Shirk finds that gender relations account in part for the great divide between the liberal and conservative moral sensibilities in pastoral counseling. She demonstrates that, as some pastoral counselors began to advocate women’s equality, conservative Christian counselors emerged, denouncing more liberal pastoral counselors and secular psychologists for disregarding biblical teachings. From there, the two sides diverged dramatically. Helping the Good Shepherd will appeal to scholars of American religious history, the history of psychology, gender studies, and American history. For those practicing and teaching pastoral counseling, it offers historical insights into the field.

So here’s the thing…
If you like my stuff then this is for you.

My Inner Circle content is where I share the thoughts, strategies, ideas and income figures that happen to me on a up to date, monthly basis BUT where I don’t mention anywhere else.

My whole online thing is a living breathing, ongoing process. It has its ups and downs, its profits and losses and its good months and bad months.

And the way most marketers go about this is by trying to replicate a fully-formed and established business model, which is a huge mistake. It’s like trying to build Microsoft from a standing start instead of acting like a fluid, adaptable start-up. Instead why not look at the things most wannabe marketers MISS when it comes to earning your first $1,000 online? Until now I’ve not shared this strategy because I only really teach processes that I use in my own business (it’s been a long time since I made my first $1k online) and well, because sometimes I do things a little differently and my methods aren’t for everyone. But I’ve taught the method that I’m sharing here to a handful of personal clients who had never earned a single penny online before and it’s worked well.

I can usually even tell you to within a thousand dollars how much I’ll make from a new product in the first 30 days. And I rarely get it wrong. Perhaps once in a blue moon I make a mistake with my income projection from a product, but that’s usually when I stop using my Pro Game Plan system and go back to gut instinct – always a mistake
You think that when I launch a new product it’s just a random ‘idea’ that I come up with to make money? It IS an idea of course, but random – no chance!

I’m putting myself on the line here I reckon.
Because I don’t ‘do’ dream-catchers, horoscopes or astrology. It might even come as a shock to you to learn that I don’t even do goal-setting any more, or reciting affirmations while looking in the mirror every morning. I don’t do these things any more because
there are much easier ways of attracting prosperity and happiness into your life.
Ways I use to attract into my life money, ideas, events, luck (yes luck), love, and a lifestyle that I could only have dreamed of when I was struggling with a 9-5 job many years ago.

Look – there’s nothing wrong with working a 40-hour week…

It’s what my dad did and his dad before him.

Blimey, it’s even what I did for many years, even after I started my online business (but before I knew there was an easier way)

You might love what you currently do but is it really as enjoyable as swimming in a tropical sea, sailing a boat or simply just enjoying a full day with your kids or grandkids?

The plain old truth is I’m getting older and I want to enjoy my life as much as possible, and that includes working LESS!

I LOVE what I do.

And yet I still want to work less because I know that when I’m burping and farting my way off this mortal coil I’m NOT going to be thinking about work, I’m going to be thinking about the time I spent with people I love.

An important message from Tony Shepherd.
Do I cheat? Yes of course I bloody do. Not on my wife, my customers, my subscribers or even my taxes. But when it comes to ‘playing by the rules’ with my business I learned long ago that playing fair means damn hard work. I’m not talking about anything illegal or unethical of course. But I AM talking about being aware of strategies that nudge the goalposts, tip the balance in your favour and that I use personally – behind the scenes – to make things easier, more profitable, faster and more effective for my online business.
