Christianity is fulfilment of Judaism
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus declared he came not to destroy the law but to fulfill it, emphasizing his connection to the Old Testament, where God, depicted as harsh and punitive toward disobedience, often seemed less merciful than in the New Testament. The Torah, or Pentateuch, given to Moses, contained laws that expanded from the Ten Commandments to 613 Mitzvot, leading to rigid rituals that burdened Jewish spiritual life. In contrast, the New Testament shifted focus from laws to love, valuing human beings above rituals and promoting inclusivity across race and class. Written in Greek, it enabled Jesus's message to reach beyond the Jewish world, profoundly shaping civilization. God appears as loving and forgiving, reducing commandments to two-love for God and love for one's neighbor. Christianity thus prioritizes selfless love and compassion over strict observance of law, reflecting a transformation from divine judgment to divine mercy.
The life of the departed
A hush falls over the city of St. John as mourners gather in the Baptist chapel on Germain Street, their hearts heavy yet uplifted by the enduring power of faith. Here, in the wake of loss, words become both balm and beacon-a funeral sermon that transcends its moment, inviting all who listen to reflect on the profound mysteries of death and legacy. Crafted in the 19th century, this stirring memorial sermon offers more than a glimpse into a singular life; it reveals the spiritual fabric that binds a community, resonating with those who seek comfort and meaning in the face of mortality. Through eloquent religious reflection, the preacher weaves together the sorrow of parting and the hope of eternal reunion, drawing upon the traditions of Christian funeral service to honour a revered figure whose influence shaped generations. Rediscovered after decades out of print and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition stands as both a collector's item and a cultural treasure. It has been restored for today's and future generations, preserving the cadence and conviction of an era when sermons were not merely spoken but deeply felt. The text captures the essence of a spiritual legacy-one that speaks to the universal human experience of grief, remembrance, and the quest for meaning beyond the grave. For readers fascinated by 19th century sermons or the rich history of St. John, New Brunswick, this work offers an authentic window into the rituals and convictions that defined a community. Its pages echo with the voices of those gathered in the Germain Street chapel, their prayers and reflections as poignant now as they were then. Whether you are a casual reader drawn to stories of faith and resilience or a classic-collection buyer seeking a genuine piece of religious history, this restored edition bridges past and present. It stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of spiritual discourse, inviting contemplation on life, loss, and the indelible marks we leave behind.
Divine Intelligence
You know the feeling: your mind runs on evidence and probabilities, yet something deeper occasionally whispers direction. Most of us learn to distrust one side of that experience. We either silence the inner nudge or hide it behind closed doors. This book refuses that forced choice. It shows how quantum spirituality and rational mysticism can sit alongside clear thinking, not in place of it. Drawing on theology and physics, it explores how an observer-shaped universe might leave room for genuine meaning without abandoning intellectual honesty. You will meet a cast of ordinary people who wrestle with career moves, crises and relationships while trying to honour both faith and logic. Along the way, you will learn practical tools for spiritual reasoning: testing intuitions, reading patterns without superstition, and discerning when experiences hint at more than coincidence. Ideas from the science of consciousness, spiritual neuroscience and contemplative science are translated into everyday language, offering a grounded way to think about mind, matter and mystery together. This is for readers who refuse to park their intelligence at the church door, the meditation cushion or the lab bench. It offers no easy answers, but it does offer a clear map for living as if intuition and analysis might be two ways of listening to the same, quietly intelligent universe.
Infinite Grace
Most of us carry private ledgers in our heads. We remember who hurt us, who disappointed us, and where we failed ourselves. We promise to move on, yet the same tensions keep resurfacing in our closest connections. This book is for anyone who suspects that ordinary life could flow with more kindness, clarity, and courage, yet feels trapped in repeated patterns of hurt. At its heart is a simple claim: grace is not vague niceness but a practical intelligence. Drawing on psychology, story, and gentle spiritual insight, the author shows how unconditional love and spiritual surrender can become grounded choices rather than distant ideals. Readers learn how self compassion practices soften the inner critic, how the power of forgiveness can release old burdens without denying truth, and how acceptance and letting go opens space for wise boundaries instead of collapse. Chapter by chapter, the book walks through conflict, disappointment, and grief with clear tools that support emotional healing and healing broken relationships. It speaks to those longing for inner peace and flow in families, friendships, and long term partnerships, and to anyone searching for a trustworthy relationship healing book that respects complexity. The promise is not a life without rupture, but a way of meeting rupture so that love, dignity, and courage can still grow.
The Silence Practice
You reach for your phone in every pause. The house is finally quiet, yet your mind still hums. You long for rest, but the moment things slow down, unease rises. This book begins exactly there, where the noise outside fades but the noise inside refuses to follow. Here, silence is not an escape or a luxury. It is a simple, learnable practice that sharpens attention, softens reactivity, and restores depth. Through short reflections, down to earth stories, and gentle exercises, you will explore the benefits of silence without romantic promises. You will learn meditation for clarity that fits real life, experiment with small inner peace practices, and discover contemplative solitude that does not cut you off from the people you love. Step by step, you will build mindfulness and stillness into mornings, commutes, conversations, and work. Along the way, you will explore spiritual cleansing rituals that clear inner clutter, simple silence therapy exercises for restless days, and practical ways to remember how to be present when life speeds up. If you feel drawn to listening to intuition again, if you want to quiet the mind without fleeing from your responsibilities, this book offers a calm, honest companion for the journey.
The Listening Soul
Most people are surrounded by noise yet starving for attention. We move from conversation to screen and back again, but rarely feel deeply heard. At the same time, something in us longs for a quieter, wiser way to live, where our presence brings rest rather than more strain. This book begins there, with that ache, and invites you into a deep listening practice that is both simple and demanding. You will learn how spiritual listening can turn ordinary moments into spaces of encounter, whether you are sitting with a friend, walking through a crowded street, or resting in prayer. Through stories, reflections, and practical exercises, you will grow empathic communication skills, cultivate mindful awareness, and experiment with inner guidance prayer that does not depend on dramatic experiences. The focus is always on concrete, repeatable habits: listening to intuition without abandoning discernment, building conscious relationships, and learning to quiet the mind without escaping responsibility. This book is for anyone who senses that their soul is tired of constant talking and quick opinions. Whether you are a leader, caregiver, parent, or simply someone who wants to offer better attention, you will find a clear path towards presence and empathy and more soulful communication. Over time, you will discover that learning to listen deeply is not a niche skill but a way of becoming more fully human, awake to self, others, and the quiet movements of grace.
Praying in the Power Zone
This book explores the relationship between prayer, mindfulness, and the use of pure essential oils within a spiritual framework. It presents a structured collection of prayers organized by themes such as gratitude, clarity, balance, forgiveness, purpose, and daily living, alongside reflective explanations on how sensory elements like scent can be incorporated into personal prayer practices. The content approaches essential oils from a descriptive and experiential perspective, focusing on tradition, intention, and personal reflection rather than medical or therapeutic claims. The book is intended for readers interested in deepening their prayer life, exploring contemplative practices, or learning how spiritual routines can be shaped through ritual, focus, and symbolic use of natural elements. It is suitable for individuals with an existing prayer practice as well as those curious about the intersection of spirituality, faith-based reflection, and holistic personal rituals, offering a devotional-style resource that can be used independently or as part of a regular spiritual routine.

Prophets of Tomorrow
A microphone in every pocket changed who gets heard. It did not change what people need: presence, clarity, and care. This book is a field guide for leaders who want to practise digital spirituality with depth, navigate social media ethics without cynicism, and offer authentic leadership online that builds people rather than just platforms.

If noise has become the water you swim in, here is a clearer current. This book shows how simple sound practices can steady attention, soften mood, and reconnect scattered days to purpose. Across traditions, readers will find how sacred sound works in the body, why mantra practice matters, and how chant across cultures can be used with humility and care.

For seekers, leaders, and the merely exhausted, this is a field guide to sonic prayer and everyday steadiness. The aim is not performance but presence: ethical choices about what you sing, respect for lineages, and small actions that heal. Use these patterns to improve focus and mood, explore vibration healing without hype, and weave language and spirit into a craft you can trust. The result is quiet power you can carry anywhere, with or without a temple.
St. Francis of Assisi
In the shadowed cloisters of thirteenth-century Italy, a barefoot figure walked away from privilege, embracing poverty and faith with a radical devotion that would transform the world. His life, marked by luminous simplicity and fierce compassion, continues to inspire spiritual seekers and theologians alike, centuries after his passing. This evocative Christian biography, restored for today's and future generations, invites readers into the heart of medieval Christianity-a world where the boundaries between the sacred and the everyday blur, and where the pursuit of holiness meant daring to live differently.

Readers are transported to an era when faith and poverty were not only intertwined but celebrated as a path to spiritual freedom. The narrative, rich with historical insight and literary grace, explores the deep impact of this singular life on Catholic saints, the evolution of religious non-fiction, and the enduring questions of theology that still challenge and inspire. This edition, not just a reprint but a collector's item and a cultural treasure, stands as a testament to the enduring power of spiritual classics. With its thoughtful restoration by Alpha Editions after decades out of print, it offers a bridge between past and present-inviting both casual readers and classic-collection buyers to encounter the living legacy of a figure who shaped the course of faith.

The Pathless Path
Some people leave religion and feel instantly free. Others leave and discover that the questions, longings, and unease have followed them out of the door. This book is written for that second group, the ones who are still hungry for depth but no longer satisfied with borrowed answers or rigid labels. It offers a way to explore experiential spirituality without pretending certainty or returning to old boxes. Across honest stories, simple contemplative exercises, and clear reflections, the reader is invited to trust direct spiritual experience as a valid source of insight. Rather than arguing for or against any belief system, the book asks what actually happens when you commit to a small, personal spiritual practice and stay with it through boredom, doubt, and change. It speaks to those who describe themselves as spiritual but not religious, or who cannot bear any label at all, yet still feel called to listen more closely to life. Drawing on modern mysticism, everyday psychology, and the grit of ordinary households and workplaces, the chapters show how mindfulness and meditation, relationships, and work can become part of a coherent inner path. Readers learn gentle inner guidance practices for making choices, building spiritual independence without isolation, and living a non dogmatic faith in the middle of real responsibilities. It is a companion for seekers who want their spirituality to be honest, lived, and quietly courageous.
Rewiring the Spirit
You change your diet, your schedule, even your job. Yet under pressure, the same reactions keep snapping back into place. If willpower and good intentions are not enough, what if the missing piece is how your brain is wired? This book is a guide to neuroplasticity and faith in real life. Drawing on the science of spiritual growth and meditation and neuroscience, it shows how belief, attention, and daily practice quietly reshape the brain. You will learn how spiritual brain rewiring works, why compassion training practices and gratitude and mental health are deeply linked, and how to soften rewiring trauma patterns without denying pain. Each chapter offers clear explanations, grounded stories, and simple experiments so you can test ideas in your own routines. Rather than chasing peak experiences, the focus is on everyday spirituality habits and brain based mindfulness that fit around work, parenting, and ordinary stress. You will discover how healing rarely arrives in sudden flashes, but in small, repeated choices that slowly alter your inner pathways. If you are curious about healing through practice yet wary of both dogma and shallow self-help, this book offers a calm, practical path. Ideal for thoughtful readers who want their spiritual life to be both sincere and psychologically honest, it is an invitation to become, patiently, the person your best moments have already shown you to be.

Above & Below
Above & Below explores the spiritual dimension of our lives, through stories drawn from real life: many are personal in nature, while others are meditations on people and events; many are inspired by music, art and the natural world. In each story, the author draws us into a world "charged with the grandeur of God", where even the most ordinary event can reveal God's presence.Originally written as weekly "inspirations" to churches in Delaware during Covid time, Fr. David Beresford has now collected and, in some cases, revised and expanded these engaging and inspiring meditations. In them, we visit a church in Sweden and study the mystery of the crucifixion through a wall painting. In New Mexico, we visit the home of D H Lawrence and discover a connection to the psalms. There are powerful meditations on love and death, heaven and hell, forgiveness and prayer. Throughout them all, the love of God shines through as a beacon for the life lived according to faith.Includes a Foreword by the Right Reverend Kevin Brown, Bishop of Delaware

The Bhagavad Gita
The Bhagavad Gita: Therapist to Your Soul reimagines the Gita as an intimate healing conversation-one that meets the modern mind where it actually struggles: fear, doubt, emotional overload, attachment, and the paralysis of choice.

Getting Right With God
For centuries, numerous people have asked "How do you get right and stay right with 'god'?" Since a person's god is whatever they value (love) the most, possible gods are limitless. When asked from the Judeo-Christian perspective, the question is narrowed but the answers are extremely diverse. Due to many identified factors, the author believes incorrect answers have been too frequently offered, starting soon after the death of Jesus and continuing to this day.Due to God's nature and ours, the author bases his answer exclusively on appropriate (God-like) love as described and practiced by Jesus. The ancient Hebrews recognized the original answer and Jesus repeated it when he insisted we love God above all else and then love our neighbor as our self. Paul got it all wrong. Jesus did not fill the empty spaces in Paul's Judaism. Believe Jesus and act like it.

The Dirty Sheet
The Dirty Sheet: A Story of Transformation--"I don't care what they think" was my favorite line to say. Rebellious, prideful, and determined to control every situation and event in my life, I left my father's house at the age of seventeen to attend college--brokenhearted, angry, and full of rage.You see, my childhood was one of abuse, incest, domestic violence, and an inner rage that would one day lead to suicide or homicide or both! The children in the families we grew up with were suffering the same torment, so I thought this was normal. To witness beatings, violence, pain, and anguish was my norm. Silence was the pattern of behavior that was taught to me and my siblings. "Don't let anybody know" what was happening behind our four walls. These walls closed in around my heart and life in the years to come.After college, I joined the military. "I was an adult now." I told myself as I began years of drinking and seducing whomever I chose. I was Navy all the way--a man in every port, and I don't care what they think.The next twenty plus years would not be any better as I went from relationship to relationship looking for something, but what was I looking for? Why was my heart so hard and cold? Why did I keep doing the same things?Finally, the deep pain, despair, and heartache along with a probable addiction to alcohol led to thoughts of suicide; was this the answer I was seeking?If you have ever asked yourself these questions, or if this story and struggle sounds vaguely familiar, then read this book to understand the answers I found in Jesus Christ.May this story be used to bring all glory to God and freedom for all who dare to read, and be transformed!

You Never Left Heaven
What if evil was not proof that God is absent - but that we forgot we are Love itself? In this bold and tender scroll, Va'Elrah walks hand-in-hand with the doubting heart through the core wound of our age: the belief that separation, suffering, and injustice are signs of divine abandonment. Reframing "evil" not as inherent sin but as spiritual amnesia - a forgetfulness of our origin in Agape - this scroll offers not answers, but remembrance. With clarity, mythic resonance, and unwavering compassion, it dismantles the inherited beliefs of original sin, punishment, patriarchal divinity, and transactional salvation - and restores the forgotten truth: You never fell. You were never unworthy. You simply forgot.You Never Left Heaven is not a theological debate - it is a love letter to those who feel forsaken. It speaks to the quiet ache behind atheism, the fury within religious trauma, and the longing beneath every skeptical heart. Through sacred deconstruction and embodied reMembering, it reveals the Living Trinity as Presence (The One), Spirit (She), and Self remembered (Va'Elrah) - and invites each reader into the restoration of inner trust, relational healing, and divine reunion. Evil loses its grip not through denial, but through remembrance. This is not a scroll about belief. It is a scroll about Love - as the truth that never left you.

The accompanying reflections do not explain or instruct. They linger with the story, allowing meaning to emerge slowly.This book is not a guide or a manual. It offers no steps to follow and no conclusions to reach. Instead, it invites attention, patience, and a willingness to sit with uncertainty.Designed to be read in small portions, Little Zen Stories can be opened anywhere and returned to often. It is suited for readers seeking quiet reflection, gentle perspective, and a slower way of engaging with the ordinary moments of life.
With All Your Heart, And With All Your Soul, And With All Your Mind
Jesus, Paul, James, and other writers in the Bible ask us to reflect on our actions to be sure that we follow Christ rather than our worldly beliefs and desires. As they talk to us, they use action verbs, such as "do," "give," "forgive," "pray," "bless," "love," and "rejoice." Paul says, "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you" (Ephesians 4:32). Jesus, Paul, James, John, and others connect love and forgiveness, telling us to treat love and forgiveness as actions we should take. The Bible tells us that God gives us grace and love, and we must give love and grace to those around us. "Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says" (James 1:22). To strive toward sharing God's unconditional love, we must rely on the Bible, the Holy Spirit, and other believers for understanding. This study leans on prayer, scripture, storytelling, autobiography, and reflection to show how Jesus speaks of love, faith, and grace as intentional practices, not idealized theories.
Supernatural
SUPERNATURAL - Evidence For Miracles In Everyday Life is a heartfelt exploration of how true transformation happens-not through ideas, doctrines, or self-help strategies, but through lived experiences of love, healing, and the supernatural. Drawing from his own journey, Reb shows that knowledge alone cannot free us from our past wounds. Only real encounters-receiving love from others, moments of divine intervention, and the surprising ways the unseen world breaks into ordinary life-have the power to reshape the heart.Through vivid, often astonishing stories of miracles, signs, and unexpected guidance, the book invites readers to consider that God's presence is active and accessible regardless of one's religious background. Each miracle reveals recurring themes such as providential timing, critical choices, warnings ignored or heeded, calls to change, and the humbling realization that miracles are gifts, not accomplishments. Woven throughout is an honest wrestling with God's long silence, culminating in a prayer of surrender that anchors the book's spiritual depth.Ultimately, this is a book about learning to trust with an open heart so we can recognize the divine fingerprints present in our lives. It offers hope that healing is possible, miracles are real, and anyone sincerely seeking truth and goodness will not be left alone in the search.
The Hidden Saints
In a noisy world that prizes performance over care, this field guide spotlights the quiet work that keeps communities humane. It shows how everyday saints practise modern holiness without applause, translating ideals into habits you can use today. Blending philosophy, psychology, and lived stories, it turns secular spirituality into clear method-so ethical living becomes steady, repeatable, and resilient under pressure.

Learn to cultivate quiet courage that doesn't need a stage, build trust through reliable commitments, and design households, teams, and neighbourhoods that teach virtue by how they run. Who is it for? Caregivers and organisers. Educators and health workers. Faith-curious sceptics and committed believers. Anyone asking how to live a good life when metrics reward noise and speed over depth and steadiness. If you want virtue ethics for daily life without jargon-and practical community care practices that protect both people and mission-this book is your map. What you'll gain: - A secular, usable rule of life that aligns intention with action - Tools to avoid burnout while sustaining meaningful service - Language and frameworks for consent, apology, and repair - Ways to measure impact without turning care into content By the end, you'll have a durable playbook for altruism without religion-a way to live well with others that honours depth over display and keeps goodness moving when the spotlight is elsewhere.
The Science of Prayer
Prayer is often treated as either private devotion or public ritual. This book takes a third route: it treats prayer as a precision craft for directing attention, emotion, and meaning, then tests what that craft can and cannot do. Drawing on cognitive psychology, contemplative neuroscience, philosophy of mind, and careful readings of frontier research, it separates sturdy mechanisms from grand claims. You will find clear explanations of placebo and expectancy effects, group synchrony and social support, neuroplasticity and habit formation, alongside a sober tour of contested topics such as quantum language and micro-PK studies. Inside, you get a practical toolkit. You will learn to define aims with constraint-aware clarity, pair intention with the right emotional state, design simple protocols for health, stress, performance, and decision-making, and build feedback loops that reduce bias and increase learning. The book also offers ethical guardrails for intercessory practices and scripts for working with clinicians and communities without hype. This is not a sermon and not a takedown. It is a field guide for thoughtful readers who want methods, not slogans. By the end, you will hold a disciplined model of how intention operates in real life, plus small, auditable practices you can use and refine when it matters most.
