Plummer, John , R. Mabry Apocryphile Press, 2006 Excellent introduction to the Independent Sacramental Movement As an Independent Catholic bishop, I often encounter the question, "What do you mean, INDEPENDENT Catholic?!?" Once I give a brief answer, often the more serious inquirer will follow up with the question, "Where would I find more information about you?" Up until now, it was hard to point them in one particular direction. This book provides a very helpful overview to an often confusing and ...             Fog City Nocturne2 reviews Apocryphile Press, 2006 San Francisco Shadows Hey, we all love miracles, even if we won't admit it --- the toddler rescued from the well, the plane with two engines on fire that manages to land safely, the kid from the slums who becomes a great athlete and a nice guy, the rich man who actually does something good with his money --- story like that catches our attention, yeah? This book is one of those page-turners. Not that it's all ...             The Science of the Sacraments3 reviews C. W. Leadbeater Apocryphile Press, 2005 Ancient Wisdom Revealed in Christian / Catholic Ritual Science of the Sacraments is not a book that should be read from cover to cover. Rather, it is a marvelous reference book for understanding the traditional Seven Sacraments of the Catholic church. Rt. Rev. Leadbeater elaborately unveils how the Sacraments were originally intended to provide stately ritual, deep mysticism, and spiritual outpouring for any sincere participants, whether members ...             Crossing the Bridge2 reviews Sydney Barbara Metrick Apocryphile Press, 2006 Crossing The Bridge I had lost my mother, and had bought Crossing the Bridge. It was really helpful in dealing with and getting past my grief. It helped clarify my emotions and feel as if what I was going through was normal and the feelings I had were normal feelings. It was well written and easy to follow and I would highly reccomend this book to anyone who is dealing with any sense of loss, or grief.             The Figure of Beatrice2 reviews Charles Williams Apocryphile Press, 2005 The Theology of Romantic Love Ben Sem, Ben Sem--We are, We are Beatrice. Not knowing or understanding much of Dante, I can nevertheless not forget what Charles Williams wrote about him, as about the above quotation from The Divine Comedy. Dante's heaven-sent guide announces "we are," not "I am Beatrice," speaking in unity with the Cloud of Witnesses, the testimony of the saints and out of the relationship of the divine life ...             The New Testament Apocrypha3 reviews Apocryphile Press, 2004 Great book to add to you library collection.... This book is a great book to have in your library collection. It is great to get your own perspective on the books that weren't added to the Old and New Testament canon. The writers did a great in putting this collection together.             The Many Paths of the Independent Sacramental Movement15 reviews John P. Plummer Apocryphile Press, 2006 An exceptional introduction to independent sacramental churches Dr. Plummer, a bishop in the Independent Catholic Christian Church, has done something quite laudable in his new (2005) survey of the independent sacramental movement?he has brought together elements of the amorphous, constantly changing periphery of sacramental Christianity into a coherent if somewhat schematic whole. Covering history, liturgy, theology, and leadership in significant detail, ...             The Codes of Hammurabi and Moses4 reviews W., W. Davies Apocryphile Press, 2006 An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth A number of Mesopotamian achievements that form the basis of Western civilization include writing, astronomy, literature, and agriculture. Another innovation that needs to be included in this list is the creation of law codes. The Code of Hammurabi is certainly not the oldest law code to have been written, but it is the most complete to have been found. As such, this has allowed us to fully ...             The Old Catholic Missal & Ritual2 reviews Apocryphile Press, 2005 A piece of history... `The Old Catholic Missal and Ritual' is a primary text for worship developed by one of the earliest figures in Old Catholicism in the English-speaking world, Archbishop Arnold Harris Mathew. Mathew had a quite colourful history, recounted by many as well as by his own autobiography, candidly entitled `Episcopal Odyssey'. Whether Mathew was more sinned against than sinner in his travels through ...             The Book of Mormon: The Original 1830 Edition1 review Apocryphile Press, 2005 The Book of Mormon An incredible read which traces the journey of a prophet and his family from Jerusalem to the Western Hemisphere in roughly 600 BCE. It has a unique insight into the dealings of God with the ancient inhabitants of America. The style of writing would be the same as that of the King James version of the Bible but the individual writers of the translated work differ greatly in not only content but ...             Henry VII1 review Charles Williams Apocryphile Press, 2007 His Initial Majesty Henry VII, that relatively unknown king who is dwarfed in popular history by his descendents, through the nature of his court invented the concept of "majesty". This relatively compact volume may not be as rich in historical detail as the tomes written latterly, but it fully captures the essence of this man, the first Tudor king. Written in 1937, this work brings to my mind and was probably ...             Heretics, Mystics & Misfits2 reviews John R. Mabry Apocryphile Press, 2004 Thoughtful & thought-provoking This is collection of essays adapted from sermons that the Rev. John Mabry has preached in the past. It is a thought provoking examination of some of the lesser known mystics through the years, as well as, a thoughtful examination of what it means to be a mystic vs. a herectic or misfit. All, interspersed with Revd. John's own self exploration in religion.             Growing Up Southern1 review Fred Brown, Jeanne McDonald Apocryphile Press, 2005 Shelby Foote makes it worth it! As a regular reader of "Colonel" Fred Brown in the Knoxville (TN) News-Sentinel, I welcomed the prospects of this new book. It exceeds expectations! This team of writers accomplished the "impossible" by arranging to interview author Shelby Foote personally and that chapter alone is worth the price of the book--then there are Welty and other bonus chapters. Highly recommended!             And Baby Makes Three1 review Carol, N. Kanter Apocryphile Press, 2007 A Guide to Minimizing Common Stresses of New Parenthood What no new parent needs is more work. This book seeks to make the reading enjoyable as it conveys key ideas about how both moms and dads can take care of themselves and each other while nurturing their newest family member. It offers a useful model for understanding infant development.             God Has One Eye: The Mystics of the World's Religions1 review John, R. Mabry Apocryphile Press, 2006 A comprehensive Look In writing this piece, which is a sermon cycle Dr. Mabry delivered at his home congregation, a vast tapestry of faiths is brought together. Indeed, while Dr. Mabry is of the Christian path, full honors and recognition is given to the mystics of many different faith pathways, and always in a most reverent manner; and in one that allows someone of a Christian path, as well as others, to be able to ...             More Lost Books of the Bible: The Book of Jasher2 reviews Anonymous Apocryphile Press, 2006 The Rest of the Story This book is the continuation of the story of Jasher that is printed in the King James Version of the Bible. It is a more detailed look into his life and environment that the King James Bible omits.             Weaving the Wind2 reviews Antoinette, Voûte Roeder Apocryphile Press, 2006 Weaving the Wind Like a sea breeze on a hot summer's day, this book of poetry gives a sense of vitality and energy to the soul. It is thought provoking and sensitive and written by a most talented woman. We thank her for this insightful collection which is such a delight to own. Anne C. Shaules             God As Nature Sees God2 reviews John R. Mabry Apocryphile Press, 2004 A remarkable book. As I had been told that this book was out of print, I was surprised to get a brand new copy. The translation of the Tao Te Ching was much more modern than the one I used to read. As one who had tried to fit the Taoist philosophy into my Christian religious beliefs, I found this book immensely helpful. In addition, it broadened my view of the philosophy. The introduction explained the ...              search for books apocrypha, beatrice, catholic, catholics, compact, crossing, edition, figure, growing, hammurabi, heretics, independent, jasher, misfits, missal, mormon, movement, mystics, nature, nocturne, original, religions, ritual, sacramental, sacraments, science, southern, testament, version, weaving books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
