We live in a time of great turbulence and trial. Our beliefs, our rights, our freedoms - our very way of life - are under the insidious pressure of evil's mounting assault upon the world. In such a time the essential priority is Man's finding his spiritual destiny. The Drama of Incarnation is a book about the Lord Christ. The author believes that within the teachings He gave and the experiences that occurred to Him during the monumental Holy Week before Easter are summarized clues for the attainment of every human being who strives Godward. It places the experience of Easter into personal perspective by recalling each of the salient events that characterized the individual days in the week preceding the Lord Christ's victory. The reader finds that, beginning with Pal Sunday, each day has its own significance in the here and now. Far from being the distant, solitary event of Christendom's most luminous miracle, Easter is beheld as an archetypal experience symbolizing man's crossing our of self and his surrender to God. The events of nearly 2000 years ago are loosened from their historical moorings and moved, independent of time and place, to the deeply personal present. The result is the illuminating involvement of the awakened reader in his own Easter encounter. Thus, The Drama of Incarnation is just that: the drama of findinglife's meaning in the Easter archetype - to become self-emptied and God-filled! To cross out one's self is the message of the crucifixion event and it is intended to be timeless and all-inclusive. It involves each person - where he finds himself at any moment - in the eternal task of discipleship that the time of Easter most impressively recreates and underscores. --- from book's dustjacket

Seeing a group of water sprites, she pointed them out to her companion. The latter, thinking this was a game of make believe, responded with her own creative inventions. Flower, realizing she saw a world that didn't exist for others, was shocked into silence for many years.In 1924, Newhouse, along with her mother and sister, moved to Los Angeles where she soon became a guest speaker at a number of churches and lecture halls. Word soon spread of her unique gifts and her convincing sincerity as a speaker. Before long she was traveling regularly to Santa Barbara and San Francisco and much of Southern California. It was on one of these lecture engagements that she met her future husband, Lawrence Newhouse. In 1940, Flower and Lawrence founded Questhaven Retreat and the Christward Ministry, which she bequeathed to the Lord Christ forever. Here, she wrote and lectured extensively on the Kingdom of Angels and the Wisdom Teachings that underlie "living the Life" and following the "Way'."--Wikipedia ; FINE/FINE. Book. Codice articolo 953
