Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book on spirituality. It attempts to present to readers the purpose of life and enables them to look at life in a much broader perspective. It is written in a lucid and simple style which helps make the concepts easy to understand. Everybody looks to gain permanent happiness, but search in the wrong place. They search in the world full of bright objects hoping that by acquiring the next shining article, their life will be full of happiness and are dismayed when they do not find it. This book removes many misconceptions and presents to readers the source of immortal bliss. Readers will be exposed to the fact that the source of eternal bliss is internal and the book provides basic information about the route to eternal bliss. The book also explores concepts of God, birth, death and reincarnation in a clear manner. I hope readers find it thought provoking and enables them to take the first step on their spiritual journey.
Download or read book Humility of Heart written by Herbert Vaughan and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardinal Vaughn wrote these reflections over a century ago, and they are as pertinent today as when they were first assembled into a book. "There is no Saint however holy and innocent who may not truly consider himself the greatest sinner in the world. It is enough that he knows himself to be man to recognize that he is liable to commit all the evil of which man is capable." This thought alone will inspire us to humility and this book is a great aid to true humility, which is essential to salvation. St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!" We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use this spiritual guide to equip yourself with the tools needed to tear down anxiety and build inner peace. Spiritual people often find that their own expectations of living a life dedicated to a higher power makes them more susceptible to high-functioning anxiety. Sometimes, traditional relaxation techniques either do not work, don’t last, or, in some cases, actually increase their anxiety. Psychotherapist, yoga teacher, and interfaith minister Rev. Connie L. Habash has helped hundreds of spiritual people overcome fear and anxiety, regain happiness, and feel calmer. In over twenty-five years as a counselor helping spiritual people overcome anxiety, Rev.

Download or read book God s Blueprint for Spiritual Growth and Reward written by Steve Morgan and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When God set out to ensure that man could continue to commune with him after the fall of Adam and Eve, he operated by specific principles that where set in order before the beginning of time. Two such principles are the Law of Sin and Death and the Law of Life in the Blood. God, who understands our need for a consistency, operated within these and many other principles to keep our communications open. The journey the Israelites took from Egypt to Canaans Land was significant in that it revealed many wonderful truths about the progressive growth in walking with Jesus Christ. Likewise, the journey the High Priest made once a year into the Holy of Holies is a significant teacher on our walk with Christ today. In this book you will find some profound similarities with our walk as Christians in this era as we strive to grow up in Him unto the Measure and Stature of Jesus Christ. You will have found where you are in your journey to full maturity and understand what the next steps are for you to continue. Jesus is still the same yesterday, today and forever!
Download or read book Essential Expositions of the Psalms written by Saint Augustine and published by New City Press. This book was released on 2018-09-14 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential Expositions of the Psalms is a collection distilled from the 6-volume set in the Works of Saint Augustine. As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo.
Download or read book Spirituality and Art Therapy written by Mimi Farrelly-Hansen and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2001-03-15 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting the increasing recognition of the importance of the spiritual in healing, Spirituality and Art Therapy is an exciting exploration of the different ways in which the spiritual forms an essential, life-enhancing component of a well-rounded therapeutic approach. The contributors are leading art therapists who write from diverse perspectives, including Christian, Jewish, Buddhist and shamanic. They explain how their own spiritual and creative influences interact, finding expression in the use of art as a healing agent with specific populations, such as bereaved children, emotionally disturbed adolescents, and the homeless. The relationships between spirituality and visual art, art therapy and transpersonal psychology are examined. Story and image are interwoven in the spiritual journeys of therapists and clients, and suggested creative exercises make this an accessible, practical resource for those who desire to understand and execute an holistic method of therapy. Arguing that art therapists can mediate between the sacred and the mundane, this pioneering book is an affirmation of the transformative power of art therapy.

Download or read book Understanding Spiritual and Physical Health written by Troy A. Roberson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A healthy Christian needs to cultivate both spiritual and physical well-being. Yet often we can be so spiritual that we neglect our physical, natural selves. On the other hand, we can also be so caught up in our physical health that we may neglect working out our spiritual selves as well. So how do we find a balance? And what if God even provided us with a guide to make ourselves our very best both inside and outside? In Understanding Spiritual and Physical Health: A Biblical Perspective, author Troy A. Roberson shares his passion for fitness and health and his years of studying the Word of God to help believers learn how to be healthy both in body and in spirit. Roberson explains how the Bible is Gods guidebook for living, and in it God shows his children how their bodies and spirits are connected; this connection means that the richer we are in spirit, the more healing, health, and well-being we will have in our natural lives as well. The apostle John tells us, Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as they soul prospereth (3 John 2). By putting into practice the advice and suggestions for how to live a good life of health and wellness through nutrition and a godly lifestyle from a biblical perspective, you too can enjoy the blessings of Christs restoration.
