Stepping Heavenward
Katherine Mortimer, or "Katy" as she's known, is a blessed yet naive 16-year-old consumed by vanity, romantic fancies, and the pursuit of worldly praise. But when her beloved father is suddenly taken from her, the shattering loss propels her into profound grief and existential questioning.Under the loving guidance of her devout Christian mother, Katy begins an arduous journey of spiritual awakening. As she grapples with pride, doubt, and the allure of temporal pleasures, her mother's patient love and steadfast example gradually guide her towards the path of faith in God. This is her journey in stepping heavenward.From the immature defiance of her youth to the selfless care of her mother after tragedy strikes, Katy's candid diary entries reveal an imperfect but profound transformation.

Her mother's words of wisdom echo in her ears through the years- "...crave something better than prizes and compliments..."Based in part upon Elizabeth Prentiss' own experience, this story is a poignant exploration of spiritual maturation, the power of mentorship, and a young person's growth from self-absorbed child to a soul awakened to the beauty of a Christ-centered life.

Breathing Sorrow
How do you survive the unthinkable, the slow loss of your soulmate and the life you once knew? In Breathing Sorrow, Carole-Ann Baer offers a deeply moving grief memoir that begins with the moment her husband, Lee, was diagnosed with terminal cancer and given just three to five months to live.

Yet amid the sorrow, Breathing Sorrow is also a healing after loss narrative. It is a tender testament to the resilience of love, the strength of family, and the presence of light even in the darkest days. With each chapter, Baer weaves heartfelt insights and poetic moments of clarity, offering solace to readers grappling with their own loss of a spouse or navigating the shadows of grief.

The words, "Mikey was killed," reverberate in his soul every day.When he received the news, he fell on his knees before throwing an exercise machine at the bedroom window. Then he tried to jump.

Mystical Recognition Gnoseology and Philosophical Relevance of the 'Mystical Relation'
Mystical Recognition relies on the insights of Albrecht's earlier study Psychology of Mystical Consciousness, which are applied here to the critical analysis of a representative corpus of mystical texts-about 100 testimonies of numerous Christian and non-Christian mystics across cultural and historical traditions. Mystical Recognition aims at exploring the 'ontic fundament' by which the psychological phenomena and responses are elicited in a mystical event. While conceding that an individual mystical experience is largely imbued with the beliefs and suppositions that a mystic holds prior to a mystical experience, Albrecht insists that a genuine mystical experience will always impart some impact and cognitive insight that cannot reasonably be accounted for from the subject's prior knowledge or the subjective domain of his/her consciousness. Any genuine mystical event is caused by an 'impact' imposed from beyond the confines of the individual self and thus the manifestation of a living 'mystical relation' between the experiencer and the 'All-encompassing. The discovery that the 'mystical relation' is an existential facticity and, as such, an 'ultimate phenomenon' (i.e. a phenomenon that 'is'-like 'life, ' 'spirit, ' or 'love'-but which cannot be rationally explained or traced to a known source) is a unique pioneering achievement and provides a new epistemological foundation for the understanding of the spiritual nature of man. In the final chapter, Albrecht juxtaposes his findings of his analyses of the corpus of mystical records and of several original accounts of mystical experience (including his own) critically to the conception of human 'Dasein' as outlined by Heidegger's and Binswanger's 'hermeneutics of Dasein, ' resulting in the claim that man is endowed with the capacity of 'openness' which enables him/her to perceive and respond to phenomena of 'transcendental Reality' 'arriving' in his/her consciousness.
The Solution?
Julius Caesar Augustus, founder of the early Roman Empire, replaced the estate of the late Roman Republic and raised taxes in conjunction with the glorious incarnation of Christ. Christ's ministry lasted the few days of three and a half years, culminating in his atoning death for the kingdom of sinful human nature. Humanity in faith was individually summoned to accept Christ as the antitypical lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world in fulfillment of Gen. 3:15. Systems of faith/belief arms would develop for believers to join. Wars of words broke out between churches and civil states regarding the nature of Christ and other traditions. Some systems of faith/ belief operated within the Ten Commandments hedge, while others did not. Roman Catholicism did not operate within that hedge, disregarding the fourth commandment, thus showing contempt for the law. Believers in the Dark Ages, Middle Ages, Reformation, and post-Reformation eras broke away from the Roman Catholic Church system to follow Bible truth, causing people to give their lives and even die for their faith.
A B C Doxology
"A B C Doxology" (doxology, meaning a short hymn of praise), is an alliterated alphabet intertwined with Psalm 148, ornamented with creatures expressing, each in turn, their awe toward each other and their Maker who vows to preserve them. Altogether, they recall and rejoice in the promise of God that he will send a Deliverer, and that His universe will never be destroyed. This book is for either children or adults, with curious words and animals, flowers, birds, minerals, and other objects corresponding to each letter. Although an alphabet picture-book, the vocabulary and images are appropriate for advanced readers for a few minutes of respite. Non-readers naturally respond to the images in the book with 'point-to' games. The appendix features a list of visual devices, many used to design the letter paintings, which may be of interest to artists and designers. The book's font, Fifteen 36, was created by Graham Blakelock of York, England, who was inspired by 16th century Roman book texts.The original paintings featured in the book were hand-painted by the artist with gouache.

The Way Without Masters
This collection of nondualist texts by R矇mi Boyer forms an anthology that is both classic and singular, traditional and avant-garde, in response to a suggestion made to the author in 1998 by Lima de Freitas: "The avant-gardes widen the breach in opacity so that the traditions can slip in."The philosophical, metaphysical, alchemical, and poetic texts gathered and expanded in this volume were published in France, Spain, and Portugal, in a dispersed manner, over the last three decades. They relate to the philosophies of awakening, the traditions of internal alchemy, and nondual metaphysics, but above all convey a method and a discipline of the arcane implemented on a daily basis.The author is bilingual in his own tongue. Alongside a common, consensual, profane manner of speaking, he proposes another relationship to language, non-Aristotelian, crepuscular, and poetic, seeking the original meaning in the sounds themselves, prior to the words, in order to allow the free circulation of mythemes and to find the primary power of the word, renewing a tradition of which Portugal and India have become the guardians.Whether with vigor or elegance, the words disorganize and disturb the conditioned to leave free space for Being and to open the doors of luminous infinities leading to the Recognition and Reintegration of our Original Nature.In reality, it is only a matter, sound after sound, word after word, of Freedom.

The New Gospel of the Kingdom According to Saint Mark (Latest Edition)
This book is an exciting, concise, and complete presentation of the gospel of the kingdom. It is an insightful update and upgrade of the gospel of the kingdom according to Saint Mark, which is the shortest of the four gospels. Many are trying to spread the gospel of the kingdom by providing lost souls copies of the whole Bible. This is like giving a hungry baby a porterhouse steak to eat. Of course, the baby cannot handle it. Others pass out tracts or pamphlets, which fail to give our Savior all the credit for all he has done. This work gives the whole story of his life, teachings, sacrifice, and victory over death. It will be a powerful tool for those dedicated to spreading the gospel of the kingdom to all nations. The goal of this book is to bring reverence, respect, and honor to the name of our Lord and Savior. It lifts him as our king onEarth as he will be lifted as King of kings in Heaven. It uses his Hebrew name and identifies him as King Yeshua. Several years ago, someone asked, "Why do you Christians obey and worship someone who is at most a Jewish Rabbi?" Sadly, there was no satisfactory answer for him. A careful study of the four gospel reveals that none of them directly identifies the Savior as a king. The wise men recognized his royalty at his birth, when they presented him royal gifts and worshipped him. Finally, at his crucifixion in defiance of his enemies, Pilate recognized his kingship at his death. His enemies did everything they could to deny his kingship. This book gives him the crown they did not want him to have. It acknowledges his kingship and refuses to let them win. No, we do not obey and worship a Jewish Rabbi. We obey and worship King Yeshua, who is the Son of God, the King of kings, the malik Almuluk, Wan wang Zhi wang, Hari ng mga Hari, Roi des Rois, K繹nig der K繹nige, Raja'o nō rājā, raajaon ke raja, ō no nakanoo, wang jung wang, rei dos reis, Korol' Koroley, Rey de Reyes, raja raja, Mfalme wa Wafalme, and vua của c獺c vị vuayenegesitati nigusi. He is the King of kings.

Revelation of God
This is about the King period of Israel and the days of the prophets. Besides the various English versions, many might have heard about but know little about the various versions in their original languages. The Masoretic Text (Hebrew version) is known as the mainstay of the Hebrew scholars. There is the Septuagint or the Greek version of the Bible, the Latin Vulgate and finally, the Samaritan Text. The serious Bible student may have heard about these but has little capability to explore these different versions. Each of these versions has expert translations into English, so it is no longer necessary to spend years learning the different "source" languages of the Bible. This work supplies the King James verse along with the same verse from different translators.This work is intended to convert the casual reader of the Bible into a more serious reader intent on understanding the overall Plan of God, His works, and His purpose for mankind. It includes commentary on different subjects covered but not explained in the Bible, such as Bride Price. Few understand why Rachel did not have Joseph until the end of the 14 years of labor of Jacob. This explains the reason God held off giving Rachel a child until the end of the 14 years. There are archaeological sources and documents that give evidence about the different events of the Bible. The autobiography of Nebuchadnezzar goes a long way into telling details of his rule that are left out of conventional history. The many Eponym Lists of the Assyrians. The Sumerian King List shows the different ruling dynasties of the Babylonians and there are various sources for Egyptian Dynasties as well, such as the Turin Canon. If you want to know more about God, then this will help aid in a quest for truth.

Althoughthese verses are primarily from Kashmir Shaivite sources, Swamijialso included verses from Vedāntic texts such as the Yoga Vāsiṣtha andthe Rāmāyaṇa. Every Sunday, he would reveal the meaning of one ortwo of these verses to his devotees in Kashmir.The following year, Swamiji traveled to Nepal with his nephew, Inder Krishen Raina, to meet with John and Denise Hughes andtheir two children with the express intent of sharing these importantverses with them. He gave daily lectures, translating and explainingthe essence of these verses. We are eternally grateful to John for hisvigilance in recording Swamiji's revelation of these special verses.During one of Swamiji's lectures, John asked him why he had com-piled these different verses. Swamiji replied, "I compiled these ślo-kas with the intention of sharing them with you." When asked aboutthe references for these verses, Swamiji said, "It is not for research. Itis for your daily recitation. Maybe sometime you will experience thesestages. Treat it as another independent book for your recitation. It willbe helpful to you in sādhana (contemplative practice).

Abandonment to Divine Providence
Abridged 2024 Facsimile of the 1921 Edition. God is to be found in the simplest of our daily activities and especially through total surrender to whatever is his will for each of us. That is the message of this 18th-century inspirational classic by Jean-Pierre de Caussade. Its encouragement to "live in the present moment," accepting everyday obstacles with faith, humility, and love, has guided generations of believers to holiness and spiritual peace.De Caussade shows that this practice of self-abandonment to God's will is the key to attaining true peace and virtue, and that it is readily available to all people-from beginners to those well advanced in the spiritual life. He also shows how to determine what God's will is for us. He reveals that it is not extraordinary feats that God expects for our growth in holiness, but rather heroic attention to every detail in our lives and humble acceptance of our daily lot in life as coming from his hand.The rich spiritual lessons in this book have stood the test of time, offering real and practical assistance to all people because its message is simple and clear, one that the reader will find to be a rare treasure of inspiration and direction to be referred to again and again.Fr. Jean Pierre de Caussade, S.J. (1675-1751) was a French Jesuit priest and author, most well-known for this famous treatise, Abandonment to Divine Providence, and also his letters to the Visitation nuns, where he served as confessor and spiritual director.

When Heaven and Earth Embrace
When Heaven and Earth Embrace: How do we engage spiritually in an emerging universe? is a profound exploration of how we can engage spiritually with the evolving universe by merging contemporary scientific understanding with a robust ecotheology. This book posits that a vision embracing both Heaven and Earth, informed by the latest scientific discoveries, is essential for meaningful spiritual engagement. Such a vision recognises the interconnectedness of Heaven and Earth while also respecting their unique differences. This balanced approach is further enriched by an ecospiritual practice-an open, attentive, and aware engagement with the divine presence permeating all aspects of existence.The potential of this vision to drive action for justice for Earth is especially critical in our times of ecological devastation. The book takes the Earth Link project, active since 2000, as its starting point. This project has pioneered the journey of integrating ecospirituality with Christian ecotheology, providing a practical framework for motivating and sustaining action for environmental justice. By presenting this integration, When Heaven and Earth Embrace fills a significant gap in contemporary theological discourse, offering both inspiration and practical guidance for those committed to ecological justice.Central to the book are the enhanced principles that guide this integrated approach. These principles are not only theoretical but are also designed to inspire and inform practical action. They provide a roadmap for individuals and groups seeking to align their spiritual practices with ecological awareness and activism. The principles emphasise the importance of recognizing the divine in all creation, fostering a deep sense of connection with the Earth, and acting to protect and preserve it.In addition to these guiding principles, the book includes study and discussion guides tailored for both individual reflection and group use. These guides are designed to facilitate deeper understanding and engagement with the concepts presented in the book. They encourage readers to reflect on their own spiritual practices and consider how they can incorporate ecological awareness into their daily lives. By fostering a communal approach to ecospirituality, the book aims to build a supportive network of individuals committed to environmental justice.When Heaven and Earth Embrace is a call to action, urging readers to see the Earth not just as a resource to be used, but as a sacred entity intertwined with their spiritual existence. The book challenges readers to adopt a more holistic view of the Universe, one that acknowledges the intricate connections between the spiritual and the ecological. Through this perspective, it hopes to inspire sustained action for the well-being of the planet, driven by a deep sense of spiritual responsibility and connection.By bridging the gap between contemporary science and Christian ecotheology, When Heaven and Earth Embrace offers a comprehensive and transformative vision for engaging with the world. It invites readers to participate in a journey of spiritual and ecological awakening, fostering a deeper sense of purpose and commitment to justice for the Earth
