Book excerpt: In 7 Keys to Spiritual Wellness, best-selling author Joe Paprocki provides a prescription for spiritual health based on the rich wisdom of Catholic Tradition. Through his nondogmatic, downright inviting style of writing, Paprocki makes this book eminently accessible to non-Catholics and "seekers" as well. Recognizing that the spiritual immune system is weakened almost daily by toxic patterns and attitudes that negatively impact our ability to live in a harmonious relationship with God and others, Paprocki offers seven enduring and reliable strategies for achieving spiritual wellness. After identifying practical ways to integrate each of these strategies into daily living, he describes seven persistent dangers to our spiritual well-being and how these dangers manifest themselves in our lives. At its core, 7 Keys to Spiritual Wellness helps us see the Christian faith not as a collection of rules and doctrine, but as a spiritual path--a path whose guideposts for spiritual wellness are sure to lead us to a more meaningful life and to a much richer experience of our faith.

Download or read book Wellness His Way written by Caren Fehr and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever thought about what it would look like to take care of your body with God, His way and for His glory? Our bodies do matter. The problem is that so often we make our bodies the main thing when they are simply meant to help us do the main thing, which is to love God and love others. For so long I took care of my body as though I was the owner of it rather than as the steward of it. I got stuck in either idolizing my body or neglecting it all together. My health was a tangled mess and the enemy tried to convince me it was hopeless. But God gently drew near to me and whispered, “I can untangle it if you let Me.” I let Him and He did. Are you ready to let Him? Are you ready to learn and live His way? This book is for: - The friend who obsesses about their body, neglects it, or is anywhere in between! - The friend who is ready to surrender this area of their life to Christ. - The friend who wants to be both strong in their spirit and healthy in body. - The friend who feels they’ve been given a “problem body,” so why bother? - The friend who wants to learn how to steward their health with God, His way and for His glory. Friend, you can steward your body with joy, peace and as an extension of your worship. I am cheering you on as you say "yes" to discovering why God's way is not only greater but is ultimately the Way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of God whispering, “What no one wants, I cherish.” The daughter of a mail-order bride and a busboy from San Francisco’s Chinatown, Bonnie Gray grew up never truly feeling beautiful or beloved. As an adult, she built her life to look pleasant and ordinary, with a wonderful husband, two amazing boys, and a thriving career. But despite these blessings, she still felt the tugging emptiness of a missing piece. At 39, a long-forgotten birth certificate in an old file cabinet sparked a curiosity Bonnie couldn’t ignore. Determined to uncover her family’s secrets and understand the home she was born into, Bonnie embarked on a quest that would leave her forever changed. Returning to the culture, places, and stories that shaped her, her search led her to soul-shaking discoveries about her identity, human kindness and what it truly means to belong. The profoundly moving journey of learning to embrace our true worth, Sweet Like Jasmine celebrates how God uses our unique and broken stories to create a beautiful mosaic of His love, one life at a time.

Download or read book The Lord is My Shepherd A 12 Step Journey Through Psalm 23 written by Marcy Hawkins and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord is My Shepherd; A 12 Step Journey through Psalm 23 is a recovery workbook and bible study. David's personal pronouns in Psalm 23 draws us in to experience God's loving care as our Good Shepherd. We fall in love with Jesus as we come to see ourselves as his beloved sheep. Within the safety of this intimate relationship we take an honest look at ourselves, our thoughts, our behaviors, our feelings, and our problems. The 12 Steps and Pslam 23 when studied together provide the perfect material for this comprehensive recovery process. Whether it's recovery from alcohol and other drug use/abuse, codependency, mental health disorders, process addictions, trauma, or pain from your past, the material is appropriate and designed to heal. Each week includes a wellness recovery action plan and relapse prevention material. It's as if Psalm 23 and The 12 Steps were meant to be studied together. Every line in David's poem is studied for 4 weeks along with one of the 12 Steps. Because there are 12 lines in Psalm 23 and 12 Steps, the material takes us through a 12 month journey. There's no better way to work the 12 Steps than to be guided, comforted, and restored by the Lord as your Shepherd. It's a beautiful recovery journey that will pleasantly surprise you at every turn. As a Licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor with over 20 years experience I can attest to the positive value of this material. Churches, homeless shelters, sober living recovery homes, counseling centers, therapists and individuals use this recovery workbook and bible study resulting in the life-changing knowledge that "He restores my soul."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Regain and Retain Your Health by Tony Akinyemi Among the creatures walking the face of the earth, none has encountered more complications than humans when it comes to matters regarding health. This is because, humans, with the advent of civilization, have become 'experts' at altering the pristine course for healthy living, the cause of anatomical and psychological complications that are unheard of anywhere else in the animal kingdom. How to Regain and Retain your Health: A Primer on Healthy Living by Tony Akinyemi presents a holistic approach to addressing health conflicts that have today compromised human potential for optimum health, as well as ideas that challenge the blind alleys of traditional medicine and healthcare practiced all over the world.

Before he devoted his time to the Church, he pursued his studies and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering in 1987 from the then University of Ife in Ile-Ife, Nigeria (now Obafemi Awolowo University). While an undergraduate, he was a Christian student leader. Tony was among the first Nigerians to receive the Novell Certified Netware Engineer (CNE) certification in the USA in 1992. In 1998, he also received his Bachelor's degree in Theology from the L.I.F.E. Bible College & Theological Seminary in Ikorodu, Nigeria. Back in 1993, he pioneered the Oregun Foursquare Gospel Church in Ikeja, Nigeria, and eleven years later, he started The Shepherd's Flock International Church.
