Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interior Freedom leads one to discover that even in the most unfavorable outward circumstances we possess within ourselves a space of freedom that nobody can take away, because God is its source and guarantee. Without this discovery we will always be restricted in some way and will never taste true happiness. Author Jacques Philippe develops a simple but important theme: we gain possession of our interior freedom in exact proportion to our growth in faith, hope, and love. He explains that the dynamism between these three theological virtues is the heart of the spiritual life, and he underlines the key role of the virtue of hope in our inner growth. Written in a simple and inviting style, Interior Freedom seeks to liberate the heart and mind to live the true freedom to which God calls each one.

Download or read book Playing a Happy Life with Great Freedom written by Zhi Xin and published by De Fu Publishing Pty Ltd. This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells us how to understand the nature of life, that is, life habit energies and habitual mental operation modes; how to observe the life benefits projected by different mental models, and see through the causes behind them. In this book, teacher Zhi Xin shared the mystery of how ordinary people can really play to lead a happy life. Everything he shared comes from his own spiritual practice for decades, through which he has successfully proved in person all kinds of mysterious manifestations, and then summed them up into a very clear principal and shared it with everyone without reservation. This mystery lies in every one of us. Although everyone is born with self-sufficient innate freedom and perfect wisdom in life, one may desend from realization to confusion because one may acquire wrong knowledge or understanding during the course of life. Such false belief may even evolve or expand to become the confusion and/or pain of life, the joys and sorrows of families, the contradictions and struggles between countries, and the various crises that mankind is currently facing. Under any of these circumstances, it will become an unattainable luxury for one to live happily and freely! Even the most basic demands of human beings who just want to survive can be totally destroyed by the driving mode of opposition and confrontation with each other! Therefore, the launch of this book is like a lighthouse in the dark night, making it full of hope as long as he or she truly masters the mystery of operating life shared in this book. As this book says, it only takes three years to cleanse our destiny, and then we can get back all the innate good things that we owned at birth! This book emphasizes this dharma of mind repeatedly. With the help of the complete wisdom arising from the book, we can break the delusion layer by layer until we can see clearly the truth of life. It is the moment when we will free ourselves from eternal imprisonment and give out a hearty laugh from the bottom of our heart!

Download or read book Sign My Name to Freedom written by Betty Reid Soskin and published by Hay House. This book was released on 2018 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Betty Reid Soskin's 96 years of living, she has been a witness to a grand sweep of American history. When she was born in 1921, the lynching of African-Americans was a national epidemic, blackface minstrel shows were the most popular American form of entertainment, white women had only just won the right to vote, and most African-Americans in the Deep South could not vote at all. From her great-grandmother, who had been enslaved until her mid-20s, Betty heard stories of slavery and the times of terror and struggle for black folk that followed. In her lifetime, Betty has watched the nation begin to confront its race and gender biases when forced to come together in the World War II era; seen our differences nearly break us apart again in the upheavals of the civil rights and Black Power eras; and, finally, lived long enough to witness both the election of an African-American president and the re-emergence of a militant, racist far right. Blending together selections from many of Betty's hundreds of blog entries with interviews, letters, and speeches, Sign My Name to Freedom invites you along on that journey, through the words and thoughts of a national treasure who has never stopped looking at herself, the nation, or the world with fresh eyes"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Road to Freedom is the path of hope for all of us who are stuck. With practical application and inspiration, Johnny Baker shares his story of recovering from alcoholism and offers the truths he has learned from his 25 years with Celebrate Recovery. Baker’s father, John, founded Celebrate Recovery when Baker was 15 years old. Later, Baker became involved with alcohol himself. Even though he saw his parents’ marriage heal and watched his dad become a new person, he had to experience his own journey of healing. Baker began the process of recovery as a young adult. Now he serves on the leadership team of Celebrate Recovery, sharing his testimony of how God brought him back home. In the years since leaving alcohol behind, Baker has witnessed thousands of other lives change through the power of Christ. Whether you are dealing with substance abuse, relational struggles, or eating challenges, or you simply want to let go of what is holding you back in life, you will find answers in The Road to Freedom. In addition to telling his own story, Baker offers ten principles of healing. These life lessons remind you that pain has a purpose, small and steady improvement lasts longer than overnight change, serving others leads to deeper healing, and facing your problems is the only way to heal. The Road to Freedom will help you move from coping with hurts, hang-ups, and habits to the hope and health that only Jesus can bring.
