Download or read book A Thousand Spiritual Lessons written by Bruce Tallman and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE INTRODUCTION Two major developments that have marked the past fifty years are an abundance of great spiritual thinkers, and less and less time to absorb their insights. What is needed in our age of hyper-information is not more knowledge but solid wisdom recorded in a way that busy people can easily digest. We are all caught in the Net, yet there are timeless principles that do not change, come what may. Like those in the Tao Te Ching, these insights are simple yet profound. For the past 32 years Dr. Bruce Tallman has been involved in helping people grow spiritually as a director of adult religious education and in his own private practice as a spiritual director. For the past 12 years, he has constantly recorded lessons for spiritual growth from the greatest thinkers of our times. Each month, from 120 of the best spiritual growth ideas, he has chosen 10 to distribute to about 2000 people. Knowing people were stressed for time, he kept these lessons to 2 or 3 lines at most. Many people requested that he compile his monthly "Top Ten Spiritual Growth Lessons" into a book. You could spend days or weeks reading a book and get just a handful of key ideas. Here are 1000 powerful ideas, selected from about 12,000, in an easy-to-understand format. Dr. Tallman hopes that this book will give you, his readers, some of that unchanging wisdom our information-overloaded, hyper-busy world so desperately needs. As you begin to absorb these lessons, you will notice some significant shifts in your consciousness. You will feel more integrated and liberated as you see the world through new eyes. And this is just the beginning - it will take a lifetime to fully absorb and live out of these 1000 spiritual lessons - and your life will have a much greater depth of wisdom and meaning because of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the world… How do you react to that thought? Does it make you afraid or nervous? Excited? At peace? Or do you simply try not to think about it? The apostle John was privileged to preview the end of the world in a dream. While in exile on the island of Patmos, he experienced an amazing vision that gave him a glimpse of heaven. He saw the final battle between good and evil. He saw God's justice. He witnessed the assured victory for believers in Christ as all hell broke loose and all heaven came forth. He saw Jesus, born in a manger, now triumphant over Satan. John's description stretches our imagination, fuels our anticipation, and comforts us as we await the final curtain call. As you read, study, journal, and discuss the book of Revelation, watch for these key themes that Max will unpack throughout the book: God has a plan and a future for the world. God will be ultimately victorious over evil. There will be a final accounting for our faith and our lives. There is a better world in store.
