Hipster Christianity : when church and cool collide / by McCracken, Brett,1982-(CARDINAL)500457;
MARCIVE 10/05/10Includes bibliographical references (pages 249-255).Is Christianity cool? -- The history of hip -- Hipsters today -- The history of hip Christianity -- Christian hipsters today -- Christian hipster churches -- The emerging church -- Social justice, missional, and the new Christian left -- Reframing Christian "art" -- Wannabe hip churches -- What's so wrong with cool? -- Authentic Christian cool -- Reversing the ripple effect -- Relevance is not a fad.Insider twentysomething Christian journalist Brett McCracken examines an emerging category he calls "Christian hipsters"--an unlikely fusion of the American obsession with being "cool" and the realities of a faith that is often seen as anything but. His insightful analysis explores what they're about, why they exist, and what it all means for Christianity and the church's relevancy in our youth-oriented culture. --from publisher description

Pub theology : beer, conversation, and God / by Berghoef, Bryan.(CARDINAL)624564;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 139-141) From London to New York to Ann Arbor, people are gathering in pubs and bars to communicate, connect, and learn from one another over the topic of religion, of all things. In 'Pub Theology', pastor, writer, and pub theologian Bryan Berghoef draws from his own experience in one such setting in northern Michigan. Berghoef contends that for too long the church has insisted on setting the terms for how one can find and encounter God. Yet what if God is to be found in places we haven't been looking at all: in a coworker who doesn't believe in God, in a Buddhist neighbor, in a friend who prefers a yoga studio to a sanctuary?

Red lip theology : for church girls who've considered tithing to the beauty supply store when Sunday morning isn't enough / by Benbow, Candice Marie,author.; Harris-Perry, Melissa V.(Melissa Victoria),1973-writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)460246; Benbow, Candice Marie.We are good creation.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Suing God for back child support.; Benbow, Candice Marie.God and other reformed helicopter parents.; Benbow, Candice Marie.God made me Black.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Amazing grace for side chicks.; Benbow, Candice Marie.We should all be womanists.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Survived by a special friend.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Black lace teddies and other pieces I rock under the anointing.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Leaving church.; Benbow, Candice Marie.Psalm 90:12.;
"A moving essay collection promoting freedom, self-love, and divine wholeness for Black women and opening new levels of understanding and ideological transformation for non-Black women and allies-from the "bona fide church girl" and educator who created the "Lemonade Syllabus." Blurring the boundaries of righteous and irreverent, Red Lip Theology invites us to discover freedom in a progressive Christian faith that incorporates activism, feminism, and radical authenticity. Essayist and theologian Candice Marie Benbow's essays explore universal themes like heartache, loss, forgiveness, and sexuality, and she unflinchingly empowers women who struggle with feeling loved and nurtured by church culture. Benbow writes powerfully about experiences at the heart of her Black womanhood. In honoring her single mother's love and triumphs-and mourning her unexpected passing-she finds herself forced to shed restrictions she'd been taught to place on her faith practice. And by embracing alternative spirituality and womanist theology, and confronting staid attitudes on body positivity and LGBTQ+ rights, Benbow challenges religious institutions, faith leaders, and communities to reimagine how faith can be a tool of liberation and transformation for women and girls"--We are good creation : skin care -- Suing God for back child support : primer -- God and other reformed helicopter parents : foundation -- God made me Black : brows, eye shadow, liner, and lashes -- Amazing grace for side chicks : contour and concealer -- We should all be womanists : bronzer -- Survived by a special friend : blush -- Black lace teddies and other pieces I rock under the anointing : highlighter -- Leaving church : lip primer, liner, lip gloss, and lipstick -- Psalm 90:12 : setting spray.

Accademia Galleries of Venice / by Nepi Sciré, Giovanna,author.(CARDINAL)172032; Valcanover, Francesco,writer of preface.(CARDINAL)172417; Langely, Michael Ph,translator.; Blanchard, Paul,1953-translator.(CARDINAL)330539; Gallerie dell'Accademia di Venezia,issuing body.(CARDINAL)174207;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 191-194)."The Accademia Galleries, the largest museum structure of Venice and the Veneto region, offer an unparalleled survey of five centuries of Venetian painting. After the Accademia was moved, in 1807, from the Fonteghetto della Farina to the Gothic Scuola and Church of Santa Maria della Carità and Palladio's Convento dei Canonici Lateranensi (which in themselves represent a monumental complex of great historic and artistic interest), the collections grew steadily: so much so that as soon as the Galleries became independent, in the late nineteenth century, the works exhibited were restricted to panels and canvases of the Venetian School. The remaining material, including non-Venetian paintings, were distributed among other institutes."--Preface.
