Book excerpt: Getting to heaven can be easy, but we make it so difficult by focusing on ourselves. In his new book, 52 Paths To Heaven, Michael M. Murray explains how we often walk along many diverse paths on our way to heaven, a perfect place with God that most people will never enjoy. They'll be in hell. Michael explains in simple terms that getting to heaven is all about SIN and SURRENDER, admitting our failings and turning our lives over to a Savior named Jesus. He takes you through dozens of personal accounts and controversial views that define these paths. Michael shows how refreshing and sometime tumultuous experiences can soften our hearts and shape our eternal destiny. Learn how: - Women who have their babies murdered through abortions can use the experience to make their way to heaven - Hot-button topics like evolution actually can draw people to God while He's in the spotlight - Sin-stained, hate-mongering pastors blow homosexuality way out of proportion and why sensitivity should prevail - Suicide demands mercy and doesn't disqualify Christians - Calamities can help us become dependent on the Lord - Pornography can take someone to the sewer, but God can rescue him and offer redemption - World religions fall short of God's demand for the perfect sin sacrifice Referencing more than 200 books, movies, teachings and other resources, 52 Paths To Heaven will help you take stock of your life and whether your view of Jesus is what God has in mind for you. Some roads are memorable. Others we'd rather put behind us. Together, they serve one purpose - getting us to Jesus. Care to meet Him? He's still waiting.

Download or read book Paths to God written by Ram Dass and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, readers have turned to the Bhagavad Gita for inspiration and guidance as they chart their own spiritual paths. As profound and powerful as this classic text has been for generations of seekers, integrating its lessons into the ordinary patterns of our lives can ultimately seem beyond our reach. Now, in a fascinating series of reflections, anecdotes, stories, and exercises, Ram Dass gives us a unique and accessible road map for experiencing divinity in everyday life. In the engaging, conversational style that has made his teachings so popular for decades, Ram Dass traces our journey of consciousness as it is reflected in one of Hinduism’s most sacred texts. The Gita teaches a system of yogas, or “paths for coming to union with God.” In Paths to God, Ram Dass brings the heart of that system to light for a Western audience and translates the Gita’s principles into the manual for living the yoga of contemporary life. While being a guide to the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, Paths to God is also a template for expanding our definition of ourselves and allowing us to appreciate a new level of meaning in our lives.

Download or read book The Case for Miracles written by Lee Strobel and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Lee Strobel trains his investigative sights on the hot-button question: is it really credible to believe God intervenes supernaturally in people's lives today? This provocative book starts with an unlikely interview in which America's foremost skeptic builds a seemingly persuasive case against the miraculous. But then Strobel travels the country to quiz scholars to see whether they can offer solid answers to atheist objections. Along the way, he encounters astounding accounts of healings and other phenomena that simply cannot be explained away by naturalistic causes. The book features the results of exclusive new scientific polling that shows miracle accounts are much more common than people think. What's more, Strobel delves into the most controversial question of all: what about miracles that don't happen? If God can intervene in the world, why doesn't he do it more often to relieve suffering? Many American Christians are embarrassed by the supernatural, not wanting to look odd or extreme to their neighbors. Yet, The Case for Miracles shows not only that the miraculous is possible, but that God still does intervene in our world in awe-inspiring ways. Here’s a unique book that examines all sides of this issue and comes away with a passionate defense for God's divine action in lives today. Also available: The Case for Miracles Spanish edition, kids' edition, and student edition.

Book excerpt: I returned to the village after a time away at university and, seeking out my old friend, I came instead upon a mystery: Adam's cottage, his garden, and Adam himself were nowhere to be found. The author and minister Frederick Buechner wrote that "in one way or another, man comes upon mystery as a summons to pilgrimage." And so it was for me. To find my friend, or at least solve the riddle of what had become of him, I embarked on a new journey of discovery. Filled with shamanistic insights and magical experiences, this spiritual memoir tells the true story of Ross Heaven's search for Adam Dilwyn Vaughan. The enigmatic Adam, who introduced Heaven to the lost art of sin eating and other Celtic traditions, left him a gift—his journal. As Heaven travels on the dragon path, he explores the mysteries of the Holy Grail, encounters spirit healers, and experiences an incredible vision of the earth oracle. His fascinating journey ultimately leads to powerful revelations of his life purpose and the fate of humankind. This guide includes a sin eater's workbook of simple Celtic divination, dreamwork, and intuitive practices.

Download or read book Praying to God Our Father written by Julie Tofilon and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three most important questions in life are 1) Is there a God? This determines our eternal address: Heaven or Hell. 2)What is He like? This determines our identity--made in His image. Gen 1:27 3)What does He expect from me? This determines our destiny and purpose. These are the most important questions in life because what we believe and who we follow determines how we live here and where we will live in our eternal life--including our rewards and future job. Life is too short and you're too valuable to waste your time and talents on temporary things or pleasures in exchange for eternal joy in the presence of God for His glory! For what profit a man to gain the whole world, but lose his soul? Mk 8:36 This guide will help you systematically examine 52 of His character traits and over 52 lists of almost every aspect of one's life to pray for, such as finding the right spouse, house, and even a computer mouse :). This instruction will give you the maturity you need in character, decision-making, and skill. Although we are made in His image, this image needs to be developed. It's not fully developed upon birth or being born again in Him. This diagnostic tool will give you a spiritual tune-up and help you reset your moral compass to the "true north" of God's standards for right living. May it help you honor Who you were meant to honor and be all that you were meant to be and do, so the whole world may know of His greatness. (Psalm 67) Life is too short, you're too valuable and God is too good for you to waste your life on meaningless pursuits and poor character. We don't want to just live between the regrets of yesterday and the fears and worries of tomorrow. God has a clear path for our lives known only to Him and waiting to be revealed to you. It all starts with discovering His nature in us. You can try to discover your life's purpose in other ways, but none will achieve the kind of results from communicating and learning from the One who created you. The author of a book develops the characters and knows the end of the story. Will you call on Him today and begin this journey of a lifetime? He loves you! It's your choice. To know Him is to love and trust Him. How can you trust someone you don't know? You wouldn't even date someone you've never met or hardly knew. Yet many people don't believe in God or don't trust Him, but they never took the time to get to know Him and pay attention to the still small voice in their soul that quietly and continually longs for Him-- your loving Father/Creator. Everyone is going to live somewhere forever. Do you know where you are going to be living? What you believe now will determine it. "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." Heb 9:27 Are you ready? Read this book and do the research. Your eternal life in heaven or hell depends it. See you soon. In Christ's love... Tom

Download or read book A Thousand Hills to Heaven written by Josh Ruxin and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One couple's inspiring memoir of healing a Rwandan village, raising a family near the old killing fields, and building a restaurant named Heaven. Newlyweds Josh and Alissa were at a party and received a challenge that shook them to the core: do you think you can really make a difference? Especially in a place like Rwanda, where the scars of genocide linger and poverty is rampant? While Josh worked hard bringing food and health care to the country's rural villages, Alissa was determined to put their foodie expertise to work. The couple opened Heaven, a gourmet restaurant overlooking Kigali, which became an instant success. Remarkably, they found that between helping youth marry their own local ingredients with gourmet recipes (and mix up "the best guacamole in Africa") and teaching them how to help themselves, they created much-needed jobs while showing that genocide's survivors really could work together. While first a memoir of love, adventure, and family, A Thousand Hills to Heaven also provides a remarkable view of how, through health, jobs, and economic growth, our foreign aid programs can be quickly remodeled and work to end poverty worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling exploration of the biblical foundations, contemplative practices, and spiritual path of Jesus himself—from the bestselling author of The Case for Jesus “What happens when a biblical theologian explores classic spirituality? This book. Pitre’s students have asked, Why have we never heard this before? The reader wonders the same.”—Dr. David Fagerberg, author of Liturgical Mysticism The path of following Jesus is an ancient and storied spiritual tradition. Yet many believers are not familiar with the three major forms of prayer and the three stages of spiritual growth that exist to bring them closer to God. In his most personal book yet, Brant Pitre, PhD, draws on the riches of the Bible, the words of Jesus, and the writings of mystics across the centuries to shed light on the mystery—and wonder—of the spiritual life. Starting with the age-old belief that the path of prayer is not only informative but transformative, Dr. Pitre explores • the scriptural roots of the major forms of prayer: vocal prayer, meditation, and contemplation • the purgative, illuminative, and unitive stages of spiritual growth • the spiritual exercises of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving • the Jewish roots of the Lord’s Prayer • Lectio Divina: how to pray with the Bible • seven vices and their seven opposing virtues • the battle of prayer: how to deal with difficulty and distractions • the “dark night of the soul” in the Scriptures Full of sacred truths, contemplative insights, and practical steps, Introduction to the Spiritual Life is a biblical road map of the spiritual landscape that enables us to follow Jesus as our primary guide.
