Wolf Time
by Lars WalkerA DRAFT FROM THE PAST. There's something unnerving about the October north wind. It makes a wolf in the wilderness turn southward, in search of dangerous prey. It gets inside people's ears, opening their minds to bizarre ideas. It gets under their skin, inclining them to violence. <P>Of course there's the comet too, a spectacular one, tracked by ordinary people in back yards, and by not-so-ordinary cult members at the top of a makeshift observatory. Something's gusting into Epsom, Minnesota. A witch in her quiet house feels it with dread. A young disc jockey feels it with confusion. A world-famous Norwegian poet greets it with triumph. And Professor Carl Martell listens to its song with worry -- because Martell cannot tell a lie, but he knows one when he hears it.

Wolfhart Pannenberg (Routledge Revivals)
by Allan D. GallowayFirst published in 1973, Wolfhart Pannenberg is intended as an introduction for those who do not already know Pannenberg’s theology and to discuss some of the problems which it presents for those who do.Pannenberg’s theology of history has already been widely discussed. This is the first work to treat his theology as a whole—his doctrine of man, of history, of God and the Trinity, of Christology and resurrection, of Church and eschatology—showing how it all hangs together. It presents Pannenberg’s work sympathetically but not uncritically. Criticism which others have made are discussed and some new ones offered. The exposition is creative, offering fresh interpretations and, occasionally, venturing to suggest possible improvements in Pannenberg’s presentation of his argument. It is thus an original contribution as well as an interpretation.This book is directed to that growing section of the public which likes to keep in touch with what is happening in the forefront of theology and to know where the growth points are. Theological students will find it a useful aid to their own reading of Pannenberg.
Wolfhart Pannenberg on Human Destiny (Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies)
by Kam Ming WongBased on one of the greatest living theologians, Wolfhart Pannenberg, this book is the first comprehensive study of 'human destiny'. Mapping out the movement of humanity over the course of its history to its common destiny from creation through sin and ethics to eschatology, the book also examines the extent to which scholars such as Herder have influenced Pannenberg's work in this important area and shows how Pannenberg's project on ethics is related to human destiny.
Wolves Among Us
by Ginger GarrettWhen two brutal murders occur in a small German village, the local priest requests help from an inquisitor. But far from being a savior, he creates a climate of fear in the town. It is up to a doubting priest and an unloved wife who is a friend of the Bible translator Tyndale to counteract this climate of witch hunting zealotry with love and truth. Garrett sets her novel against the historical backdrop of the inquisition, in which people were imprisoned and tortured, often burned on the false testimony of others. She shows how easily the atmosphere in a community can be poisoned by fear and distrust.
Wolves Among Us
by Ginger GarrettThis richly imagined tale takes readers to a tiny German town in the time of "the burnings," when pious and heretic alike became victims of witch-hunting zealots. When a double murder stirs up festering fears, the village priest sends for help. But the charismatic Inquisitor who answers the call brings a deadly mix of spiritual fervor and self-deceptive evil. Under his influence, village fear, guilt, and suspicion of women take a deadly turn. In the midst of this nightmare, a doubting priest and an unloved wife--a secret friend of the recently martyred William Tyndale--somehow manage to hear another Voice...and discover the power of love over fear. Dinfoil, Germany, 1538. In a little town on the edge of the Black Forest, a double murder stirs up festering fears. A lonely woman despairs of pleasing her husband and wonders why other women shun her. An overworked sheriff struggles to hold the town--and himself--together. A priest begins to doubt the power of the words he shares daily with his flock. And the charismatic Inquisitor who arrives to help--with a filthy witch in a cage as an object lesson--brings his own mix of lofty ideals and treacherous evil. Under his influence, ordinary village fears and resentments take a deadly turn. Terror mounts. Dark deeds come to light. And men and women alike discover not only what they are capable of, but who they are...and what it means to grapple for grace.
Woman
by Neal A. Maxwell Spencer W. Kimball Boyd K. Packer N. Eldon Tanner Marion G. Romney Ezra Taft Benson Mark E. Petersen Legrand Richards Marvin J. Ashton Bruce R. Mcconkie David B. Haight Marion D. Hanks Rex D. Pinegar G. Homer Durham James M. ParamoreA compilation of talks given by LDS (Mormon) General Authorities on the topic of Women. "The book Woman brings important spiritual perspective to a number of concerns that lie close to the heart of every daughter of God. Herein is found the vital message that our Father in heaven cares about us--that he wants women to be fulfilled and happy and important and worthwhile. Here are answers to so many of the questions that trouble women, especially LDS women, in these latter days. I am especially gratified that this book offers dignity and recognition to the divine occupation of motherhood, an occupation that the world tends to shun as being unrewarding and unfulfilling. The counsel to single women brought forth here is also particularly timely and valuable. There are words of help, of hope, of eternal value for women in virtually every aspect of their existence, and the underlying tone is one of respect for the scope of woman's influence and the power she has to improve our world."

In Woman Awake, Christina Feldman suggests that it is possible for women to break out of their negative patterns and accept themselves as they really are. With a growing awarenss of the dignity of all life and its connection with them, women can overcome the social conditioning and myth-making that overwhelm and oppress them.For those women new to Buddhist meditation, Christina Feldman offers sensitive and valuable guidelines on breathing and relaxation, stressing, above all, that learning to understand, appreciate, and value themselves is the first step towards women's creative and joyful integration with the world.

Woman and Goddess in Hinduism
by Tracy Pintchman Rita D. ShermaOfferingmultilayered explorations of Hindu understandings of the Feminine, both human and divine, this book emphasizes theological and activist methods and aims over historical, anthropological, and literary ones. The contributors approach the Feminine in Hindu traditions from the standpoint of "intersubjective construction "via a method that can be termed "dialexis. "Here, "dialexis" refers to a form of intellectual engagement "across styles" that takes as its starting point an adequate accounting of contextualized signification. The diverse ways that cultures articulate themselves are rooted in lexical choices made in historical, geographical, and cultural contexts. "

by Jeanne AchterbergThis groundbreaking work examines the role of women in the Western healing traditions.
