Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Properties of Feelings is a read beyond comprehension into the unknown shadows of the universe. Being beyond strength and imagination I cannot explain it further this author has seen the best of the world. It bleeds is the strength and commitment of this book. Believing is the end of everything is the statement of this book. How can I survive is the question this book attempts to solve. Now I will tell you to look no further if you are exploring the universe and in search of answers to the impossible. Why can’t I believe is the question we most often ask in a universe that says the answers aren’t there. Keep trying and if you think the answers aren’t there ask again. Ever wonder where your feelings come from? I cannot explain it but your feelings are real and the universe will support this idea. It isn’t the idea that you are real it is the idea that feelings make it so. Belief is supported through strength and courage and conviction. Heart is everything in a world of plenty. Life begins and ends on a notation that sings. Politics is everything to a philosophy that ordains it. Now I must excuse this book as far as I can tell it believes in something called the notation. But enough about that if you believe in something you believe in your feelings. Ask more about them and you will find them in this book. Properties of feelings is a manuscript that feels.”

The journey has been filled with spiritual awareness, celestial and terrestrial phenomenon, and unexplained events, awakening to a new way of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament writings reflect a sense of wrestling to understand what the world-shattering events of Jesus's life, death, resurrection, and ascension mean in the rough-and-tumble of daily life in a conflicted world. In this book, a senior New Testament scholar investigates seven critical areas of tension--historical, moral, political, material, social, perceptual, and temporal--that shape the "big ideas" discussed and debated in the New Testament. This lively investigation explores the challenges that influenced the New Testament writings and how the writers responded to those tensions. The author shows that out of this upheaval came a remarkable set of creative, dynamic writings that have shaped and challenged millions of lives as sacred Scripture. This accessibly written book offers a fresh way to learn about the world and content of the New Testament writings. It will help readers appreciate the rich diversity of New Testament thought cohering around commitment to the one Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
