The Myth Of “Righteous Anger” What The Bible Says About Human Anger, Jeffrey Gibbs

Concordia Pages

It is hard not to draw the conclusion that we live in a society that is characterized by constant anger and outrage. While it may not be unique to our current age, what is new is the way in which social media has provided a megaphone for expressing our anger, often to shame others into thinking and acting in ways we find acceptable. Of course, Christians are not immune either to feelings of anger (in so far as we are shaped by original sin) or the use of social media to express our outrage (in so far as we are …

Respect The Non Intervention, Disrespect The Humanity, Uum Humairoh

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

The non-intervention means that the equal sovereign states shall not intervene in each other’s internal affairs. The non-intervention would be regarded as an equivalent of non-intervention. The countries have obligation to obey this term to avoid other country’s intervention. Sometimes, it brings positive impact to the country, meaning that the country can stand alone to handle any issues, internal or external.

However, as the time goes by, this issue of non-intervention has become debatable. ASEAN, regional organization in South East Asian, has used this term as basic prin- ciple to run the organizational function. ASEAN cannot be involved in the …

Protecting Rohingya Refugees In Asean: The Contested Human Rights In The World Of Na- Tion-States, Nurul Azizah Zayzda

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

This paper departs from the concern that states’ policy towards refugees and asylum seekers around theworld has not necessarily encouraged a true meaning of refugee protection. Instead, the policy related to their situation has been founded on the ba- sis of states’ rights to accept asylum. In consequence, there have been always cases of refugees living in limbo, denied from protection or even deported to their home countries. The fact however needs to be not taken for granted, to be acknowledged as result of construction by wide range of actors; states, intergovernmental states, international non-governmental organizations, individuals, etc. This paper …

Building Peaceful Coexistence Between Rohingya Refugees And Buffer Com- Munities In Langsa City And East Aceh, Yulia Rina Wijaya

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

The arrival of Rohingya refugees in East Aceh in 2015 is different, in terms of num- ber and people’s response. From the first week to the beginning of the third month, aids flow in daily, piling up at government warehouses. So many people from the Langsa City and neighbouring areas come to see the refugees or offer helps. Sponta- neous social solidarity is evident out of collective memories of Tsunami disaster and spiritual connection. Impact of Rohingya refugees presence that receive humanitari- an aid from many local, national and international organizations which put refugees too special and full of aid …

The Plight Of Rohingya People In Bangladesh: Access To Justice And Human Rights Protection, Shyikh Mahdi

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Bangladesh has a long history of hosting Rohingya from the Northern Rakhine State of Myanmar with the earliest arrivals recorded in 1948. The recent influxes occurred in last few years forced a large number of Rohingya to flee to Bangladesh in the wake of serious state repression in Myanmar. This huge influx of refugees without proper reception and attention from the Bangladeshi side caused severe humanitarian crisis; the appalling conditions of the refugee ghettos are gradually deteriorating.

The Medieval Best-Seller: Part I, Jillian M. Ewalt

Marian Library Faculty Publications

In a recent New York Times article, Tina Jordan explored books and authors that appeared on the best-seller list 25, 50 and 75 years ago. In 1993, there were plenty of familiar names (at least to me) like John Grisham, Stephen King and Anne Rice. Go back in time a little further to 1968, and Charles Portis’ True Grit was topping the charts (Coen brothers’ remake, anyone?). In 1943, Ayn Rand came in at No. 9 with The Fountainhead.

First of three blogs by the author about Books of Hours.

But have you ever wondered what the best-seller list …

Student Perceptions On The Community Of Spiritual Formation At A Faith-Based University, Jonathan R. Colburn

Doctor of Education (EdD)

Spiritual formation has always been of utmost importance in Christian education as faithbased institutions strive to educate the whole person; body, mind, and spirit. Because of this, Christian universities work to create programs and provide activities that challenge the minds and hearts of the students in order to promote spiritual growth. This study seeks to answer the following question: What does a phenomenological analysis of the lived experiences of students at a Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU) institution reveal about their perceptions of the spiritual formation priorities of the institution? Stated another way, what do students report about …
