Eating Dr. King's Dinner: A Memoir of the Movement, 1963-1966
ISBN: 9780945177241 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1965, Chuck Fager was a rookie civil rights worker, fresh out of college, who was sent to Selma, Alabama to work for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s direct action campaign to end the racist exclusion of African-Americans from voting, there and across the South. This is Chuck Fager's vivid personal account of the movement: how he got there, his experiences in and out of jail, what he learned, how Selma shaped his life and launched him on a spiritual journey and a writer's career. This book is a revealing first-person counterpart to his earlier, highly-praised historical account, "Selma 1965:...

Our Society. Our Future: Resist!: Selected Stories
ISBN: 9781544282985 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "To every thing there is a season," says the biblical sage Ecclesiastes, A time to gain, and a time to lose; A time to keep, and a time to cast away . . . A time to keep silence, and a time to speak," and I would add, A time to endure, and a time to resist. As I write, in early 2017, in the United States, such a time of resistance is upon us. This collection is for those who have been through "a time to lose," indeed many shocking losses -- losses that, as I write, are far from over. Some of these losses will have to be endured for a time, perhaps a long time. Yet if so, they are not to be...

Wisdom & Your Spiritual Journey: A Study of Wisdom In The Biblical And Quaker Traditions
ISBN: 9781517041939 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When you get to the "So what?" part of life -- you're looking for Wisdom. But "where," to quote an earlier seeker, "is Wisdom to be found?" (Job 28.12) One place Chuck Fager looked for it was in the Bible. There the "So what?" question had been posed compellingly in one familiar phrase from the short book of Ecclesiastes: "'Vanity of vanities, ' saith the Preacher, 'all is vanity and is a striving after wind.'" And a few pages later: "To everything there is a season, and a time to ever purpose under heaven. A time to be born, and a time to die..." This book was one result of Chuck's...

Remaking Friends: How Progressive Friends Changed Quakerism & Helped Save America
ISBN: 9781499604153 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Progressive Quakers, though long forgotten by historians, were the radical seed of activist American religion in much of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Remaking Friends is the first book to tell their unique, exciting story. Emerging in the decades before the Civil War, the movement included pioneer crusaders for abolition and women's rights. They challenged authoritarianism in churches and questioned many traditional dogmas. They stood for applying reason to doctrine, the Bible and theology; yet they were also welcoming to the burgeoning spiritualist movement. Come right...

Meetings: A Religious Autobiography
ISBN: 9781533239495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book describes Chuck Fager's transition from a conservative Catholic, pro-military youth to an active peace witness and a lengthy period of "spiritual formation" among progressive Quakers.
