Download or read book When God Talks Back written by T.M. Luhrmann and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.
Download or read book Ragged written by Gretchen Ronnevik and published by New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we mistake spiritual disciplines for to-dos, time slots on our schedule, or Instagram-able moments, we miss the benefits of Christ's continual and constant work for us. In Ragged, Gretchen Ronnevik aims to reclaim spiritual disciplines as good gifts given by our good Father instead of heavy burdens of performance carried by the Christian. Only when we recognize our failures to maintain God's commands do we also realize the benefit of our dependence on his promises. Gretchen uses this distinction on law and gospel, presented throughout Scripture, to guide readers through spiritual disciplines including prayer, meditation, Scripture reading, and discipleship among others. Despite our best efforts, the good news is that spiritual disciplines have less to do with what we bring before God and more about who Christ is for us, not only as the author but also as the perfector of our faith.

It also presents stories from other believers to give readers a sense of how alike, and different, our spiritual experiences can be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An exciting vision of the future" --Michael Eric Dyson Everything Is Spiritual is an unexpected and compelling invitation to see your life in a whole new way. We have the great moments of our lives, the highs, those times when we soar, when it all makes sense, when it feels like it all has purpose and meaning. And then there are all those other moments—the lows and aches and failures and struggles and experiences that leave us wondering what the point of it all is. Are our lives ultimately bits and pieces and fragments—you try to find a little peace and hope and then it’s over? Or is there more going on here? In our increasingly polarized and disoriented world, Everything Is Spiritual gives us a radical new take on how it all fits together, how it works, how it’s all connected. Part memoir, part extended riff on the quantum nature of reality, part history of the universe, Rob Bell takes us back through the twists and turns and struggles of his story in order to help us see the larger story so that we can reconnect with our story.

Download or read book WTF I m Trying to Be Spiritual written by Jeanette Bishop and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 International Book Awards New Age: Non-Fiction Category Finalist in the 10th Annual National Indie Excellence Awards for New Age Non-Fiction Category Fed up with living life as an opinion of someone else? Throughout this book, readers will discover themselves, or at least what or who they aren’t. There’s no point in having spiritual answers if we can’t stand ourselves, as we layer most things into our guilt and shame cycle, which we seem to like so much. Self-hatred is evident in many of us, from overeating to starvation; seeking and never finding that true love, leaving a trail of broken lives—our own included—shows us we are really seeking ourselves. Never really knowing why that would be, we ventured into the heart of the matter, literally: self-love. Where is it, what is it, and how come we don’t have it? The reader is invited to discover how to reveal the power of love within and share it with others by the world’s foremost authority—God. The dialogue between God and the book’s authors provides insights into some of life’s biggest questions and the human condition, not just on a personal level, but also on a global scale. Through these inspiring messages, this book exposes spiritual truths, while providing solutions that can be incorporated into the daily practice of everyday living, to bring a greater sense of peace and awareness to the reader.

Front cover: photo by Jeanette Bishop (Isle of Skye, Scotland) Back cover: photo by Helen Varga (Cranberry Creek Gardens, Lynedoch, Ontario, Canada) BlueInk Review “While the authors’ basic premise (direct communication with a supreme being) may not be palatable to everyone, their suggestions could offer a way back into spirituality for sincere seekers . . . . “ ForeWord Clarion Reviews “Bishop and Varga have created a jovial and generous guidebook for self-care. The book’s largest sections, which focus on loving oneself and healing via that love, offer a blueprint for this reorientation. Trading between practical advice and recalled, meditative conversations with the Spirit, the authors act as creative spiritual gurus.” Kirkus Indie Review “ . . . there are sound pieces of advice to be gleaned from these pages, even by readers with diff erent beliefs.”
Download or read book Spiritually Speaking written by J. Brent Bland and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06-24 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a decade or more I have experienced a deep, inner impression to write a book. My greatest love in life, of course, is God and His perfect Divine design for all of mankind. Having experienced salvation at an early age, I, and the world around me, was spared the despair and difficulties that sin would have caused. My passion is that this writing will touch countless souls. We are living in a world that is suffering untold misery because mankind, Gods creation, the only part of creation with a soul, has turned its attention away from a Holy, Sovereign Creator, and is running out of control into eternity hopelessly lost. Parts of this book are biographies of very special people in my life. Relationships in our earthly lives can make or break us. I have had, and presently have, priceless relationships that have helped form and transform me for God and His cause. All glory, though, belongs to Jesus Christ and His perfect love for all. We live in a world that is afraid of God, and afraid that we will over- spiritualize everything. The spiritual aspect of life is Real Life! I hope and pray Spiritually Speaking will touch your heart and soul.
