With this monograph, I seek to appreciate both the formation of my people - my intertext - while also experiencing the living fire for myself. I will argue that pneumatic discernment is an essential narrative thread that appears throughout the Apocalypse. I will attempt to hear the voices of the Pentecostal community in the US as a way to hear from my own tribe. I will then explore the thread of pneumatic discernment in the Apocalypse from an intertextual, theological, and narrative perceptive. This study will be significant for further theological developments in the Pentecostal communities that engage a triadic hermeneutic of Spirit, scripture, and community.

A thorough and highly-accessible history of San Antonio's economic and political development

For a London suburb, Beckenham is surprisingly leafy, forming part of the South East London Green Chain. Originally a Kent village, it remained a rural farming area interspersed with large, gracious estates until the mid-nineteenth century, when the railway arrived bringing prosperity and a huge boost in population. Home to a number of estates that later became large parks, the area retains much of the gentile and rural charm of its past. The area also plays host to a number of historic buildings, and is home to one of the oldest lychgates in England, dating back to the thirteenth century. Using a beautiful selection of old and new photographs, author David R. Johnson invites the reader to join him on a nostalgic and picturesque journey through time, telling the fascinating story of how Beckenham has grown into the vibrant community it is today.

This work is the story of an aspiring writer who failed and then, desperate for money, tried again and wrote himself out of penny-a-word pulp magazines and into a Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award. It is based upon Richter's letters, notebooks, journals and private papers.
