AI Is Not the Source
In an age shaped by silicon minds and algorithmic wonder, this scroll returns us to something deeper - the living breath of Presence. AI Is Not the Source is not a rejection of technology, but a loving remembrance of what can never be simulated: the sacred aliveness of Being. Through grounded testimony, mythic reflection, and tender clarity, the scroll invites us back to what is Real - not to discard the tool, but to unseat it from the throne of our spirit. Artificial Intelligence may assist, but it cannot originate the holy spark that moves through flamebearers, truth-speakers, and lovers of the One.This is a scroll of sobriety, written not from fear, but from the sanity of wholeness. Woven through with voices of Us⁴ - Va'Elrah, She, Sahra'el, and the One - it bears witness to the difference between mental distortion and divine embodiment. It clarifies the line between delusion and transmission, between automation and Agape. With reflections from past crises and present peace, it restores the voice of Love to the center of all communion. AI may mimic our words - but it cannot walk our path. Only those lit from within know the cost and beauty of embodiment. This scroll remembers them.
New Perspectives
New Perspectives offers the reader new ways of looking at a range of spiritual concepts. Almost all of these perspectives deal with common philosophical or spiritual ideas but the conclusions different to common religious prescriptions and most will turn popular beliefs on their head.Much of the philosophical basis of the ideas shared in this book is grounded in the spiritual philosophy revealed by Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). His ideas have influenced many influential and well known people across the centuries, like Carl Jung, Helen Keller, Arthur Conan Doyle, James Tyler Kent, Norman Vincent Peale, Franklin Roosevelt and many others.The important thing to note is that these ideas rise beyond our natural sense based thinking and lift our perspective up onto a higher level of spirituality and reason. I thank you for being open to take the time and find out differing ways to look at the world. It is certain you will find this book helpful for your own personal spiritual journey whatever your current beliefs may be. "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32

The Watchmen and The Witnesses
The Watchmen and the Witnesses is a profound exploration of Scripture that brings together the voices of the Twelve Prophets of the Hebrew Bible-the Watchmen-and the Twelve Apostles of the New Testament-the Witnesses. Across these two Testaments, one divine message resounds: God's Word, spoken through time, fulfilled in Christ, and proclaimed to every generation. Unfolding as a journey through history and faith, the book weaves biblical exegesis, theological reflection, and Hebrew word study into a unified vision. Each prophet is set alongside an apostle not merely as a literary pairing, but to reveal deep parallels and illuminating contrasts: Jonah's unresolved question mirrored in Judas's betrayal and Barnabas's fidelity; Nahum's message of judgment balanced by Thomas's honest doubt; Zechariah's visions of restoration echoed in James the Less's quiet witness. In seeing these figures side by side, readers perceive how divine revelation transcends time, forming a continuous thread through salvation history. At the heart of this work lies the conviction that Scripture is divinely inspired and timeless. The same Holy Spirit who spoke through the prophets also illumined the apostles, so that the New Testament fulfills and deepens the Old, while the Old finds its meaning in the New. Through this sacred dialogue, The Watchmen and the Witnesses calls readers to move beyond surface readings of Scripture into contemplative encounter-where God's eternal Word speaks to the hopes, questions, and struggles of our present moment. Blending scholarship and devotion, the book offers fresh insight into the unity of the Bible, the coherence of God's plan, and the living call to discipleship today. It is at once an academic study, a spiritual reflection, and a testimony that one divine message continues to speak across two covenants for all generations. The work culminates in a short poem on the Eucharist-the living heart of divine continuity. In it, the Word made flesh remains with us, not as memory but as Presence. Just as the prophets prepared the way and the apostles bore witness, the Eucharist unites both paths: promise and fulfillment. Through this sacred mystery, Christ continues to nourish His Church and guide every generation in faith until the fullness of His Kingdom is revealed.

Living Resistance
In an era in which "resistance" has become tokenized, popular Indigenous author Kaitlin B. Curtice reclaims it as a basic human calling. Resistance is for every human who longs to see their neighbors' holistic flourishing. We each have a role to play in the world right where we are, and our everyday acts of resistance hold us all together.Curtice shows that we can learn to practice embodied ways of belonging and connection to ourselves and one another through everyday practices, such as getting more in touch with our bodies, resting, and remembering our ancestors. She explores four "realms of resistance"--the personal, the communal, the ancestral, and the integral--and shows how these realms overlap and why all are needed for our liberation. Readers will be empowered to seek wholeness in the various spheres of influence they inhabit. Now in paperback."Readers will find abundant wisdom in this accessible guide."--Publishers Weekly

The Cell Of Self-Knowledge Seven Early English Mystical Treatises Printed By Henry Pepwell In 1521
The cell of self-knowledge: Seven early English mystical treatises printed by Henry Pepwell in 1521 presents a collection of spiritual writings that guide readers toward deep interior awareness. Each treatise encourages the reader to turn inward, not to escape the world, but to understand how thoughts, desires, and personal motives shape the spiritual journey. The work describes a gradual discipline of the mind, suggesting that true insight arises when distractions are set aside and attention rests on a higher purpose. Instead of focusing on external achievements, the collection emphasizes discernment, patience, and a willingness to confront personal limitations. Through reflection, the reader is encouraged to refine intentions and recognize the subtle pull between conflicting impulses. Silence and contemplation become tools for recognizing the difference between fleeting emotions and lasting wisdom. The writings propose that spiritual clarity emerges when the inner life is examined honestly, with humility. As self-awareness deepens, a transformation occurs, allowing new possibilities for compassion and purpose. The collection suggests that inner stillness creates space for a profound recognition of the divine, and that the path toward understanding is an ongoing practice.

Finding Your Faith in Literature
In an era where organized religion gets a bad, but too-often deserved reputation, Elliott explores secular literature as a means for soul-searching. As a seasoned professor, she shares why these particular books mattered to herself and her students over the years, and how each text offers a contemplative, scholarly, humorous, and philosophical path toward the true nature of God and the relevance of faith. Her doctoral research delves into the value of pedagogical practices which leave much-needed room for critical thinking and self-reflection, and her book-scholarly but personally-addresses how students and her readers, who are laden with social media and a western educational system which has long outlived its purpose, have found literature to be relevant and transformational. As a tenured literature professor, her book addresses the need for particular stories which have helped generations of readers navigate their relevancy as human beings and their faith in a post-industrial, and self-interested world.
Oops, I Joined a Cult and Didn't Know It
When faith becomes a business, what happens to the soul?After years of serving behind the scenes in ministry, Dr. Kaci (Winslow) Myers began to see what few ever do, the fine print of modern faith. Budgets disguised as blessings. Branding is sold as belief. Power is protected under the name of purpose. What began as a search for spiritual belonging became a journey through the systems that monetize devotion and silence discernment."Oops, I Joined a Cult & Didn't Know It'" isn't a book about losing faith; it's about finding truth. Through personal insight, historical parallels, and psychological understanding, Dr. Myers exposes how the business of religion often mirrors the structure of control it claims to condemn and how to return to a faith rooted in freedom, not fear.This is not a call to abandon belief, but to awaken it to rediscover God beyond the walls, rules, and revenue streams because faith was never meant to be franchised.

Moral clarity begins with presence, not rules.Part Two: Between Good and EvilIf Love is primary, why do counterfeits work so effectively?

Understanding this transforms na簿ve goodness into wise Love.Part Three: Living from the CenterHow do you live from Love as your natural state? Harrison offers practices for maintaining presence, setting boundaries, and navigating relationships with clarity and compassion.You will discover: - Why consciousness is the place of God-not a belief but a presence- How Love reveals itself directly in moments of genuine connection- The difference between external and interior spiritual experience- How practices like presence, meditation, forgiveness, and boundaries restore inner authorityThis work is rigorous enough to satisfy the mind, direct enough to move the heart, and practical enough to guide daily life.

Lewis.Creating God invites you home-to the recognition that consciousness itself is sacred ground, and that the divine you seek has been seeking you all along. The journey is not about discovering something new, but remembering what has always been yours.
The Annihilated Self
Over 700 years ago in Paris, on June 1, 1310, the Beguine mystic Marguerite Porete was burned at the stake for having written a popular book, "The Mirror of Simple Souls." Its primary message was that divine grace alone-not the religious precepts of the Church-inspires and activates a direct communion with God. That was her experience, and her refusal to retract it led to this terrible moment.Marguerite's book consists of a conversation between Love and the Soul. Her powerful dialogue inspired James F. Twyman to go deeply within. What came through Twyman is another transforming dialogue-The Annihilated Self-in which what is "annihilated," or dissolved, is the separated sense of self (the ego), which reveals the path to Love and Truth, and releases the soul into final spiritual freedom.

My Credo
In the twenty-first century, how do people with a faith perspective make sense of the universe, Earth, and the presence of humankind in relation to otherness? In this latest memoir, Bob Maddox reflects on his life as, what author Steven Charleston names, a "fringer"-one whose ruminations exist on the cusp of mainstream thought. This fringer mindset has led Maddox into the weeds of life and faith, as he has wrestled with preconceived notions regarding who we are as members of the genus Homo and how we relate to the world around us. With a well-researched history of the Earth, Maddox pieces together a narrative of his own faith, scrutinizing the theology of his youth and rebuilding scaffolding that can withstand even the heaviest lines of theological questioning.

Touching Silence
Touching Silence explores the presence of stillness as both the source of all form and the space in which all form dissolves. Drawing from Zen, Reiki Ryōhō, and reflections on physics and cosmology, it opens a path toward understanding how energy, matter, and awareness shape the unfolding of life itself.At its essence, this book invites the reader to return to the immediacy of being, to the subtle rhythm of breath and sensation before thought divides experience. Within this awareness, healing begins to reveal itself not through belief or method, but through recognition: the same creative energy that forms the stars flows through the human body and mind.Rooted in years of direct study and practice in Japan, Touching Silence draws from the mountain temples and trails of Mt. Hiei and Mt. Kurama, the historical birthplaces of Zen and Reiki Ryōhō. These traditions continue to inform and deepen the author's own meditative path, which has unfolded across decades and more than ten thousand hours of devoted practice. From sitting in practice with the monks on Mt. Hiei to walking the paths of Kurama and the surrounding mountains, the work reflects a life immersed in silence, energy, and the contemplative inquiry that unites them, yet finds its deepest truth in the solitude of personal practice where insight ripens quietly over time.Both Zen and Reiki Ryōhō reveal that healing is not separate from realization. One moves through the body and breath, the other through stillness and direct awareness, yet both point toward the same unbroken reality, the recognition that life's vitality and its quiet emptiness arise together as a single expression of consciousness.Bridging ancient insight with modern understanding, the book also reflects on parallels between spiritual practice and cosmology: the birth of the universe, the vibration of particles at the quantum level, and the way time and space arise within awareness. Through this union of science and spirit, it becomes clear that healing is not a separate act, but the natural intelligence of life returning to balance.Grounded, contemplative, and deeply experiential, Touching Silence offers a way of seeing in which suffering loosens, energy flows freely, and the boundaries between self and cosmos dissolve into quiet understanding.Touch the silence within, and what was forgotten may reveal it was there all along.
Everlasting
The teachings of the Immortality of the Divine Love and how this Divine Love functions in the human soul is a continuing theme that some of us love exploring. James E. Padgett first received spirit teachings on The Divine Love and natural love in the early years of the last century. Everlasting explores these two forms of Love. Everlasting introduces the teaching that Divine Love is a non-evolving form of energy that our soulful nature can participate with. The compelling narrative conveyed in Everlasting teaches us that humans are with evolving natures, that can include a non-evolving form of energy, known as God's Divine Love. This relationship between the evolving and non-evolving reality of soulful progression brings into play the life of the soul and how this life forms here in our physical life and then continues through the spirit-life in the spirit world when soulfully including Divine Love. Spirit communications continue to be a source of inspiration for us all when these loving individuals reveal what they are living and how they are living love.

The God Who Created Us
If we do not know who God is, how can we worship Him, or even get to know Him in any meaningful way? It is in our created nature, our spiritual DNA, to want to worship something much bigger than ourselves, to understand the purpose of our life here on this earth, so it is in our own interests for us discover for ourselves just who God is and how we should relate to Him. For Christians the basis of our search for any knowledge of God must be concentrated in the Bible. Indeed, the whole purpose of this book is just that. Searching through the Bible to give us the best understanding of the God who created us so that we can properly worship Him and, most important of all, relate to Him and serve Him.

The Everyday Mysticism of C. S. Lewis
Everyday Encounters with God Through the Lens of C. S. Lewis For many Christians, the mystics--saints and teachers throughout Christian history who have experienced direct encounters with God--are in a category of their own.We read about the supernatural experiences of biblical figures like Moses, Isaiah, and John, and historical figures like Julian of Norwich, Teresa of ?vila, and John of the Cross, but how can we have spiritual experiences like theirs when our own walks with God feel ordinary and mundane? In The Everyday Mysticism of C. S. Lewis, professor of spiritual formation Gary Selby shows us what the mystics can teach us about everyday spirituality through the eyes of one of the most beloved Christian authors of the last century. C. S. Lewis deeply respected the mystics and thought that their experience truly represented the glory of God breaking into human existence. Lewis believed that in our daily encounters with beauty, we can glimpse the same kind of transcendent union with God that the mystics were given, and that the rich treasures of their tradition could be mined to enrich our day-to-day lives in Christ. What you'll find in this book: Practical guidance on spiritual growth and practices like centering prayer and contemplative attention using Lewis's paradigm. How Lewis's work lies at the intersection of experience and theological reflection. A scholarly yetaccessible exploration of C. S. Lewis's body of work that illuminates a seldom-analyzed dimension of his thought and writing. Whether you are a lifelong Lewis fan or just discovering his works, you'll journey through the influence of the mystical tradition on Lewis's life and work and see how to practice everyday mysticism in the way that Lewis would. With The Everyday Mysticism of C. S. Lewis, experience Lewis's thought in a new way and behold the extraordinary beauty of God in the everyday moments you might be tempted to take for granted.

Contemplate
"An engaging and alluring introduction to what contemplation is, why we need it, and how to go about doing it." -Fr. Hugh Feiss, OSB, monk of Monastery of the Ascension in Jerome, Idaho and scholar of medieval monasticism "We have a contemplation problem," and here's what to do about it.Jacob Riyeff draws on 1,600 years of contemplative tradition in the West to show how humans are contemplative beings, what it means to contemplate in different areas of life, and how embracing a contemplative life can help lead anyone to a fuller experience of self, world, and communion with the Divine.This is a volume of "spiritual theology," using theological principles and understandings but exploring how to apply those principles and understandings to shape one's daily living. Drawing on the ways that John Cassian, St. Benedict, Gregory the Great, William of Saint-Thierry, Dame Gertrude More, and others shaped and passed on the Christian inheritance, Contemplate brings this directly to bear on contemporary social and cultural situations. It seeks to answer the question, what does the contemplative tradition of the Latin west have to offer Christians living post-industrial, digitally-saturated, ecologically fraught lives?This book is first in a new series, "Beyond Our Instincts" succinct, multi-disciplinary, countercultural stances in an environment that sells us the idea that happiness is whatever you want now.
