Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existence of life's Presence within you, the Kingdom of God, was never intended to be a mystery. And Eternal life is to be experienced now in this Present moment of life's only reality. Your life's Conscious-driven purpose was predestined before you were ever born. It has always existed within you, ready to be revealed; you just had to come into the light of awareness of its existence. This is the Practice of Awakening Your Mind to Your True Identity, Life's Calling, and Your Inspired Purpose: The Minds Renewal Is the Path to Your New Transformation You are not who you think you are .... Your mind's false self-awareness has separated you from the Presence of life. In your separation from life's only reality, this Present time, you have created a false self-identity or ego. This ego continues to lead you astray from life's Presence by seeking for more beyond this Present moment, the only reality of life's existence. Transcend your mind's false self-awareness to the higher state of Consciousness, the awareness of your Oneness with life's Presence. Know your true identity, your Oneness with the Author and Perfecter, the Creator of all life. The end of all suffering .... You hold the key to your inner peace, the end of your mental suffering. You are not your thoughts, the thinking and rationalizing mind, but you are the observing or witnessing Presence within. Know your mind's right standing position, its correct alignment with Consciousness, the awareness of life's Presence in the here and now of reality. Learn to become free from the mind's attachment to the intellect and put an end to all your suffering. Life has a purpose for you .... Predestined before the foundation of the earth, life's unfolding script had a unique role for you to play. You were created with a longing desire within to know your inner purpose, something much greater than you could imagine for this life. You were created with the secret of your identity and purpose hidden within you, waiting to be revealed. Life is calling you, drawing you inward to an awareness of your true self and to fulfill its destiny, and there is no greater time than now. The New Beginning Are you ready, child? To take the journey of life as I have set it out, just for you? Hold fast, for there is much to learn, much to teach you. Lend an ear to Me. I will fill you up, for wisdom only comes with reverence. Ask, and you shall receive. I give all to My children who reverence Me. Do not go outside of life's existence, but remain in the Present with Me. I shall surely reveal to you My unfolding plans for your life's purpose, your great destiny!

Download or read book Core Christianity written by Michael Horton and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suppose you could ask God any question and get an answer. What would it be? Young people all over the world have been asking those questions. So Neale Donald Walsch, author of the internationally bestselling Conversations with God series had another conversation. Conversations with God for Teens is a simple, clear, straight-to-the-point dialogue that answers teens questions about God, money, sex, love, and more. Conversations with God for Teens reads like a rap session at a church youth group, where teenagers discuss everything they ever wanted to know about life but were too afraid to ask God. Walsch acts as the verbal conduit, showing teenagers how easy it is to converse with the divine. When Claudia, age 16, from Perth, Australia, asks, "Why can't I just have sex with everybody? What's the big deal?", the answer God offers her is: "Nothing you do will ever be okay with everybody. 'Everybody' is a large word. The real question is can you have sex and have it be okay with you?" There's no doubt that the casual question-and-answer format will help make God feel welcoming and accessible to teens. Conversations with God for Teens is the perfect gift purchase for parents, grandparents, and anyone else who wants to provide accessible spiritual content for the teen(s) in their lives.

Download or read book A Christian Theology of Place written by John Inge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The place in which we stand is often taken for granted and ignored in our increasingly mobile society. Differentiating between place and space, this book argues that place has very much more influence upon human experience than is generally recognised and that this lack of recognition, and all that results from it, are dehumanising. John Inge presents a rediscovery of the importance of place, drawing on the resources of the Bible and the Christian tradition to demonstrate how Christian theology should take place seriously. A renewed understanding of the importance of place from a theological perspective has much to offer in working against the dehumanising effects of the loss of place. Community and places each build the identity of the other; this book offers important insights in a world in which the effects of globalisation continue to erode people's rootedness and experience of place.

Download or read book Unsinkable Faith written by Tracie Miles and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2017-04-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.
