Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessions of a God Seeker has been described as one of the most important contributions to spiritual discourse in the last fifty years. It attempts nothing short of assembling the countless puzzle pieces that answer the questions: Why am I here? Is there a spiritual purpose to life? What is the connection between centuries-old spiritual teachings and recent scientific discoveries? What are the spiritual laws of manifestation? How can I use them to bring happiness and success while achieving spiritual unfoldment? For Ford Johnson, solving this puzzle has been his life's quest. He is first and foremost a "God-seeker," one who yearns to understand the mysteries of life. To be successful in this search, he had to discover and assemble scattered pieces of truth through an investigation that was broad in scope and deep in scale. The result is a work that is as much a journey for the reader as it was for the author -- an astounding journey to higher consciousness.

Download or read book Confessions of a Passionate Seeker written by Dr. Pamela Gerali and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After many years as a dedicated seeker, Dr. Pamela Gerali hit a wall. An energy-sapping virus forced her to examine her priorities and refocus on the Blueprint for the Human Spirit(R), her holistic model for conscious, compassionate living. She was guided to meditate and journal confessions for forty days. Baffled by the directive from her "inner guru," she explored the significance of the number forty and discovered it represents rebirth. Three days later, Pamela arose early, went to her sacred space, lit a candle, and paused in the silence. A word sprang into her awareness: discipline! She picked up her pen and wrote a confession about her negative reaction to the topic. Memories flowed onto the page-painful experiences, humorous recollections and powerful lessons. Finally, a positive affirmation that encapsulated her journey concluded the journal entry. As Pamela's experiment in radical honesty continued, a new word emerged each day. At the end of the exercise, Pamela realized she had experienced a huge shift in awareness and made the leap of faith across the chasm from ego to essence. In Confessions of a Passionate Seeker, Pamela's personal stories and revelations bring to life the Blueprint with all of its spiritual wisdom and practical guidance. By sharing her journal, she hopes to encourage seekers to experience their own deep soul cleanse and embrace their wholeness and oneness. "Pamela Gerali's "confessions" made me want to honestly look at my life and its challenging times. If the book affects everyone this way, it will be a bestseller." -Rev. Jim Rosemergy, Author & Unity Minister

Download or read book Why Creeds and Confessions written by Jay Rogers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why a book on the creeds and confessions of the Church? A single book containing the actual texts of the most important creeds of the early Church will not often be found. Out of the multitude of works on the evangelical Christian book market today, those dealing with the creeds of the Church are scarce. This book contains the full texts of the most important creeds of the early Church. The purpose is to put into the reader's hands a book containing the creeds that all Christians throughout the ages - Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox and Protestant - have believed. When we come to the Reformation period, we will see that the matter of salvation and church government became a matter of debate. However, there has always been a continuous thread of teaching that all Christians have held in common. Why Creeds and Confessions? provides a foundation of biblical orthodoxy as a defense against the false and truly heretical doctrines advanced by the spirit of this age.

Download or read book Heelcatcher written by Steve Foster and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-16 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If God can love Jacob, then He can love anyone.Surprisingly, God associates Himself with Jacob more than any other person in the Bible. God calls Himself the God of Jacob on twenty-four occasions. And He calls Himself the God of Israel (the new God-given name of Jacob) over two hundred times.Jacob is not the biblical "hero" that we talk about. There are no children's songs about Jacob. No one sings "Dare to Be a Jacob." His story is more embarrassing than impressive. Yet God ties His name for all eternity to Jacob.Why? Because all of us are like Jacob in some regard. We are all "heelcatchers," struggling to make life work, wrestling with God, fighting to figure out who we are.Jacob's story is our own.In my own struggle with anxiety, panic attacks, perfectionism, past abuse, and the meaning of masculinity, I discovered the beauty and power of God's grace in Jacob's life. The God who loves Jacob loves us all...and is a refuge to all who cling to Him alone."Be still, and know that I am God;I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!The Lord of hosts is with us;The God of Jacob is our refuge."-Psalm 46:10-1
Download or read book The Mysticism of Saint Augustine written by John Peter Kenney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-09-19 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Augustine's vision at Ostia is one of the most influential accounts of mystical experience in the Western tradition, and a subject of persistent interest to Christians, philosophers and historians. This book explores Augustine's account of his experience as set down in the Confessions and considers his mysticism in relation to his classical Platonist philosophy. John Peter Kenney argues that while the Christian contemplative mysticism created by Augustine is in many ways founded on Platonic thought, Platonism ultimately fails Augustine in that it cannot retain the truths that it anticipates. The Confessions offer a response to this impasse by generating two critical ideas in medieval and modern religious thought: firstly, the conception of contemplation as a purely epistemic event, in contrast to classical Platonism; secondly, the tenet that salvation is absolutely distinct from enlightenment.

Download or read book Confessions of a Seeker Adventures in Spirituality Therapy and Belief written by Richard Sylvester and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-24 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is monotheism humankind's second worst idea? Would you really want to meet your dharmic partner? Does free will exist? Is the too much examined life not worth living? How would you remove a curse from a dead Tibetan lama? What is consciousness? And why won't the vicar let us use his church hall? 'Confessions of a Seeker' is Richard Sylvester's fifth book. It is a sometimes wryly humorous, sometimes deeply serious account of several decades spent searching for "ultimate truth" through Eastern spiritual paths and Western psychotherapeutic practices. During these years, Richard became involved among other things with hallucinogenic drugs, Transcendental Meditation, gurus, past life regression therapy, personal growth groups, shamanism, channelling and alternative medicine. He came across numerous beliefs including conspiracy theories about shape-shifting lizards and Atlantean crystals. As well as recounting adventures with therapists, lamas, psychics, and amiable hippies who fear that tap water might kill them, the book tackles religious belief head on, with chapters on Buddhism, Catholicism and The Baptist Church. It also addresses more philosophical issues such as free will, the nature of consciousness, and the essential difference between science and religion. "Tricia has been spreading the worst rumour about me that she has been able to concoct. But it is not that I roast and eat babies on the Sabbath, nor that I dance naked with the devil and consort with his minions. It is that I am that most dangerous of all people .......... a Buddhist!" "Past life regression has become popular amongst the faintly hippy spiritually inclined seekers of whom I am one." "My view is that the world would be a better place if the Pope commanded his Cardinals to distribute lorry loads of free condoms to the Catholic faithful." "I have cleaned toilets and swept floors on three continents. I am not boasting. This is simply a statement of fact." Richard Sylvester's previous books include 'I Hope You Die Soon' and 'Non-Duality Questions, Non-Duality Answers'. www.richardsylvester.com
