Download or read book Wild Empty Spaces written by Vince Gowmon and published by Creativ Press. This book was released on 2017-10 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Wild Empty Spaces, Vince Gowmon leads you through six stages of the soul, from its arrival on Earth, through its expression in childhood, relationships, its summons to reflect, slow and gradually return to the wild empty spaces where we hear its whispers calling us home. This courageous journey is not so much about dying and death on a physical level, but about bowing to Mystery, to something much larger than our individual self. More specifically, the poems are an emphatic invitation to become intimate with the subtle entreaties of Mother Nature, to walk with the wisdom of inquiry, feel deeply, dream boldly, and allow the force of our longings to break our hearts open. They are an invitation to brave the space between what we've always known, the spaces in which our immanent wildness finds us.

Download or read book Nefesh HaTzimtzum Volume 2 written by Avinoam Fraenkel and published by Urim Publications. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nefesh HaTzimtzum provides the single most comprehensive and accessible presentation of the teachings and worldview of the Vilna Gaon's primary student, Rabbi Chaim Volozhin. It is focused on Rabbi Chaim's magnum opus, Nefesh HaChaim, a work that has lain in almost total obscurity for nearly two centuries due to its deep Kabbalistic subject matter. Nefesh HaTzimtzum opens up the real depth of the ideas presented in Nefesh HaChaim together with all of Rabbi Chaim's related writings, making them accessible to the public for the first time in any language. In addition to the complete English translation of Nefesh HaChaim, Nefesh HaTzimtzum includes the full Hebrew text of Nefesh HaChaim and many other writings by Rabbi Chaim (with correspondingly hyperlinked English and Hebrew texts), along with in-depth explanations, an informative historical overview, an easily consumable innovative presentation layout and a full index. After centuries of confusion, extensive clarification is provided of the central Kabbalistic concept of Tzimtzum, or the secret of how an infinite God occupies a finite world. Most importantly, it unequivocally demonstrates that the key Kabbalists, including the Vilna Gaon, Rabbi Chaim Volozhin and the Baal HaTanya, all unanimously agreed on the underlying principles of the concept of Tzimtzum and that contrary to widespread historical misunderstanding, there was no fundamental dispute about the philosophical principles of Judaism between the Hasidim and the Mitnagdim. Based on this Nefesh HaTzimtzum shows that both Nefesh HaChaim and Sefer HaTanya present the same methodology for serving God which is rooted in their identical understanding of the concept of Tzimtzum. Nefesh HaTzimtzum is published in two volumes which are sold separately. This companion volume presents a number of important concepts, including the concept of Tzimtzum, which together enable the true depth of Nefesh HaChaim to be understood. It also adds valuable insight by providing the translation of all of Rabbi Chaim Volozhin's published writings which are related to Nefesh HaChaim. Additional related writings are also included together with detailed outlines and a full index for both volumes.

Download or read book The Heart of Remarriage written by Gary Smalley and published by Revell. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often, couples enter remarriage unaware of potential problems and unprepared for the challenges stepfamily life will bring. The Heart of Remarriage takes a unique approach to success in remarriage by going straight to the heart, helping couples heal from the inside out rather than offering surface suggestions that may change circumstances but not the lives of couples and their families. Drs. Gary and Greg Smalley partner with remarried couple Dan and Marci Cretsinger to offer this marriage-changing idea: No matter what circumstances or challenges a remarried couple and their stepfamily face, the solution starts in their hearts. Remarried couples will learn how to examine their own hearts and heal them from the hurts of the past, so that they can be filled with God's love and let that love overflow to their family members. The Heart of Remarriage teaches readers how to create emotional security for every family member and offers practical ideas for connecting at the heart level with their spouse, children, and stepchildren. Couples will be encouraged to keep their hearts open and challenged to leave a family legacy of love.

Download or read book Untangling the Seven Desires of Your Heart written by Lavon Koerner and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LaVon Koerner learnt the concepts that prompted the content of this book, while he was setting up and running his International Consulting Business (Revenue Storm). While these concepts were curiously absent from the church, they were constantly revealing themselves while he was conducting international business. As LaVon engaged in multiple cultures in 49 different countries, the patterns became increasingly more noticeable to him. It was out there in the international community that LaVon uncovered the seven common denominators occupying every human heart. They stood out as the most beautifully simplistic common denominators instilled by God in every human heart that all nationalities and peoples shared. In a world that appears to be growing more deeply divided, he found that these commonalities reach beyond skin color, languages, dialects, or cultural mores. We all share in the desperation and the joy of the Seven Desire in EVERY human heart. Your own heart will validate their existence as you read this book. It is now time to put these critical observations in the rightful hands of the church where they belong. If they remain absent from the personal work of the church, we will be failing each other while allowing people to continue in emotional bondage. These longings hold the key to unifying the church as one body sharing all the same aspirations that have been built into our hearts by God himself. We need to fight the obsession over what divides us and move onto these seven common longings that unite us. God designed just one “mankind” and every human being has these exact same seven desires in their hearts. This book will untangle each one of them and set you free from all the negative emotions emanating out of the love-gaps that surround them.
Download or read book Single written by Bethanne Milton and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you dating anyone? Why does that always seem to be the first question out of someone’s mouth when you are catching up? It is a question that has beaten young people down and made them feel like failures for centuries (probably). But the truth is, many teenagers and young adults are better off going through seasons of singleness. Singleness is often treated as a problem that needs a solution. But singleness is not a problem. Singleness is a gift. We know that God has a plan for each and every one of us, but relationships seem to be one of the more difficult aspects of that plan for people to trust in. You would be surprised what you can glean from a time of singleness when you know what to strive for. It is God’s desire to use singleness as a time for deep personal growth. It is a time to refine your understanding of who God is and how He sees you. In Single, Bethanne Milton presents the opportunities for spiritual and emotional growth that come through singleness. Intertwined are stories of her own experiences as an adolescent and college-age single woman battling against a culture that questions why anyone would be or should be single. Milton addresses many different topics that fall under the umbrella of “singleness.” From questions about why we feel alone and what love really is, to the kinds of spiritual and personal growth that may need to occur before seeking out a relationship; from what scripture actually says about relationships and singleness, to what it could mean to really give God control over your relationships. Milton presents her ideas and insight into Christian relationships, culminating in one main idea: Singleness is not an obstacle; it is an opportunity.

Download or read book Dialogues with the Divine written by Sondra Sula and published by Turning Stone Press. This book was released on 2014-01-17 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follow an ordinary woman’s quest for answers to life’s most universally pondered questions… If you could chat with the creator of the universe, what would you say? Exciting, right? On second thought, sounds a bit intimidating! But what if you could experience—risk free—someone else’s conversation with God? It may just stimulate your own. Dialogues with the Divine follows Sondra Sula’s quest to find answers to age-old questions, straight from the source: God. At the beginning of her journey, she interacted with flora, fauna, and objects as the intermediary between her and God. She’d “talk” with a particular subject (praying mantis, flower, tree or whatever she gravitated to at that particular time) recording her side of the conversation and the subject’s side. After several years, she discovered she no longer needed a mediator and she felt comfortable addressing God directly. At first, Sula came to God only when she had a problem to solve, but when she quickly ran out of “problems,” she simply spent time conversing. They talk about generosity, compassion, illness, fear, serenity, gratitude, and so much more. Throughout their conversations, God plays a variety of roles from best friend to therapist to parental figure, but above all—Divine Being. As their intimacy evolves, layers of Sula’s previously unknown dishonesty peel away, replaced by a transparency that lays bare her soul. Dialogues with the Divine will help readers reignite their desire for personal enlightenment by simply eavesdropping on conversations with the potential to change their lives. The unwavering message throughout the book is that we are each loved for our unique selves with the potential to access God at any time. “Please take what moves you from this book to draw closer to God, and what does not resonate, let it pass by you like the wind on its journey toward another soul.” –Sondra Sula

Download or read book Psychology of the Heart written by Heyong Shen and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-14 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The symbol of the heart is at the core of traditional Chinese psychology and culture, according to author Heyong Shen. In this latest volume arising from the popular Fay Lecture Series, sponsored by the Jung Center, Houston, the noted Chinese analyst, scholar, and educator discusses Jungian analysis in China and explores what the historical Chinese emphasis on the heart can add to Western understandings of modern depth psychology. C. G. Jung had a profound personal interest in Chinese culture and wrote extensively on Chinese philosophy and symbolism. In his foreword to Richard Wilhelm’s translation of the I Ching, the ancient Chinese oracle and book of wisdom, Jung referred to Chinese logograms as readable archetypes. Continuing this theme, Shen states in his prologue, “Most of the basic psychological terms in Chinese characters are formed originally with the image of the heart and contain deep meaning for the understanding of depth psychology and Jungian analysis . . . The Chinese characters for ‘thinking,’ ‘emotion,’ ‘will,’ and ‘intention’ are all combined with the image of the heart, as are the characters for ‘love,’ ‘hate,’ ‘compassion,’ ‘virtue,’ ‘listening,’ ‘healing,’ and for ‘wise,’ ‘wisdom,’ and ‘enlightenment.’” The heart serves as the foundation. Drawing from centuries-deep wells of Chinese, Buddhist, and Confucian thought as well as an intimate understanding of the development of Jung’s theories, Shen offers a valuable reminder of the many commonalities among humans from all nations as they seek greater levels of self-awareness.
