Life As Art
My intention for compiling this anthology of quotes is to allow everyone interested in the journey toward compassion, to explore the depths of our own shadow through reflection and acceptance of the gifts served to us in life. I used a Beatles song as an example of identifying the notion of Hindsight, I sight, and Insight. We can use any phrases that inspire us to be aware of and own who we have been, and who we want to be and love ourselves through the process.
Building Windows Into Men's Souls
Few of us in England now go to church, but most of us wonder where we came from, who we are and where we're going when we die. Or as Paul Gaugin once said, 'D'o羅 venons-nous? Qui sommes-nous? O羅 allons-nous?' I will always be grateful to my wife for sending me on this odyssey, and I hope my experiences will interest church goers and others alike, and especially children setting out in life and studying religion at school. There are many different Christian faiths, and all of them give us pause for thought.
What Dog Lovers Know About God
For the cover of my first What Dog Lovers Know About God, I used a picture of Lyssie, who was my first cocker spaniel and who lived with me for nearly twenty years. In that photo, she looked as if she were listening to Jesus, and I have absolutely no doubt that she is with Him now. The picture on this sequel's cover is of Annie on the left and Gracie on the right, posed as if they are in class, eager to learn something. As any dog lover knows, however, dogs usually teach the owner more than the owner teaches the dogs. Through the invaluable relationship between a dog lover and a beloved dog, there is a lot of teaching and learning going on. The title of their class should be GOD 101: Introduction to God's love. After all, "dog" is "God" spelled backward, so it is no small wonder there is a correlation between the two; both give unconditional love, and where else in the universe can you find that?Dr. Brenda Ayres has been teaching British literature for nearly forty years and currently teaches graduate courses online for Liberty University. To date she has published 75 books, most of them scholarly and focused on eighteen- and nineteenth-century American and British literature. This is her second sequel of What Dog Lovers Know About God, with the hope that she will publish eight more sequels.
A Book of Revelations
As a prisoner of Jesus Christ, I write to share testimonies to encourage believers, that God is faithful to his word.In a time of chaos and confusion, dark doom and gloom, we can totally depend upon the word of God to do just what He says. Our problem is staying POSITIONED IN THE PROCESS, TO RECEIVE THE PROMISE. KNOWING how to WAIT (serve) in the waiting. The answer to every problem is the ability to SEE the answer; the REVELATION, revealed knowledge of God, and then WALK IT OUT!Let me help you to see through the EYES of MY UNDERSTANDING, being ENLIGHTENED, through step by step instructions given me on my journey to the promise. It is a PROCESS AND EVERY STEP IS CRUCIAL! Whatever your journey is, let God allow me to help take you there; so you can OVERCOME by the blood of the Lamb and the words of MY TESTIMONIES (REV. 12:11). When you are strengthened, GO and strengthen you bretheren. (Luke 22:32)

Your Path Led through the Sea
Your Path Led through the Sea chronicles a journey from shallow to deep waters, from quiet ponds and trickling streams to roaring rivers, thundering falls, and storm-tossed seas, which aim to bring the reader into a deeper spiritual understanding of life's tempests and storms from which flow those rivers of living water, deeper intimacy with God. Many Scripture references, hymns, and the insights of noted Christian authors, like light dancing on the surface of the deep, are scattered throughout these pages. If you choose to dive in, you will learn how God chooses to still the storm, to walk with you over boisterous waves, or, like Peter, draw you up and out of them. Even if God's path should lead you through the sea, his way through the mighty waters, he will part them, and you will not have to walk through them alone.

The Ideal Muslimah - Things We Don’t Talk About
As a practicing Muslim, the author explains from a personal lens how abstaining strengthens the soul. Some questions Muslim women ask most often regarding their religion have to do with women issues. A Muslim woman who is learning about her religion finds out quickly that certain acts of worship such as formal prayer and fasting, and even sex are forbidden at times. The author also explains that many of us learn, when we are young, that masturbating is wrong or bad, so there can be feelings of guilt or shame about doing it or talking about it. This book is intended to clear up these issues as much as possible.Another great book to read: Muslimah ISBN 979-8786646598

In His Time
"Miracles, signs, wonders are still parts of the daily lives of these folks whose ages are enjoyed well into the eighties and one is ninety-two and another is ninety-five. All the stories shared within the pages of this unique little book are true and awesome. Surely mostly Christians, even many "regular" people, have had godly experiences that they explained away as being mere coincidences. But God is alive, and He takes delight in being among us and showing all of us his glory and mighty powers and healing and protection to those who believe. "What's natural to you is supernatural to the world; and what's supernatural to the world is natural to you."These authors are among those who were "blessed By God" during the revival years beginnings of the 1960s. Now even in the little happenings of their daily lives.
Caf矇 con Leche
Tyisha is a young lady who suffers far too much at an early age. Her color, her place of birth, the unseemly acts of her grandfather and the rejection of others cause her to see little hope in the future. As a young teacher in training, she learns her supervising teacher has suffered as well and has not been hardened by the experience. She tells Tyisha about a God who loves her and wants to make her whole and Tyisha is changed by the salvation of this God who gave His life for her. Along the way, she discovers other truths such as prejudice is not geographic, that God has chosen our mates before the foundation of the world was laid, and He can form us into what He wants us to be. No matter the circumstance, there is always HOPE.Brent Garzelli was born a poor boy on a cattle farm in southern Missouri. He did not see much hope for the future of farming, so he excelled in high school, college, and seminary. Some of the story of Tyisha is his story-especially the change the Lord made in her life is reflective of the change made in his own. He has been an ordained minister since 1979 and sees writing books as his ministry now.Cheryl Garzelli was born on the headwaters of the Rio Grande River in southern Colorado. She is the daughter of a former Warrant Officer in the United States Army and had no particular faith in God as a child.

Brent and Cheryl have been married for over 47 years.
Sophos Ontology
Sophos Ontology: On Post-Traditional Spirituality discusses religious plurality and post-traditional perspectives on emergent forms of sacred sensibility, particularly for those identifying as "spiritual but not religious." This book is divided into three parts. The first part is a retrospective account of multiple religious traditions, with emphasis on esoteric thought as influenced by mystical writings, covering western, eastern, and Native American traditions. The second part discusses the need for a new conceptualization of the "sacred" as expressed through multiple spiritual perspectives relevant to a pansentient, post-traditional process ontology. Other topics in this section include the importance of an ethically shaped spirituality, collective influences, dreams, imagination, and the role of pluralism in shaping beliefs. Part three explores the role of faith, redefined as spiritual commitment, mysticism as direct experiential knowledge, and transpersonal theory influenced by comparative studies in altered states of consciousness, paranormal research, and the metaphysics of discovery - all contributing to the development of present and future spirituality.

This book is about how people exploit those with compassion and never expect to be exposed. If Adolph Hitler were alive today, how effective would his argument be about bringing up his past?

They are used to protect the athlete and provide integrity to the game. This story addresses the absence of any rules pertaining to parental responsibilities for the healthy development of their children, moral and ethical decadence in relationships, mental and spiritual abuse, and man's inhumanity to man.This book was written based on my having a sixth sense and photographic memory. The accuracy of such resources could be questionable. However, I have included documents to substantiate my claims. This story was written according to my life experiences.

The Church in an Age of Secular Mysticisms
Post-Christian life and society do not eliminate a desire for the transcendent; rather, they create an environment for new and divergent spiritual communities and practices to flourish. We are flooded with spiritualities that appeal to human desires for nonreligious personal transformation. But many fail to deliver because they fall into the trap of the self. In the last book of the Ministry in a Secular Age series, leading practical theologian Andrew Root shows the differences between these spiritualities and authentic Christian transformation. He explores the dangers of following or adapting these reigning mysticisms and explains why the self has become so important yet so burdened with guilt--and how we should think about both. To help us understand our confusing cultural landscape, he maps spiritualities using twenty of the best memoirs from 2015 to 2020 in which "secular mystics" promote their mystical and transformational pathways. Root concludes with a more excellent way--even a mysticism--centered on the theology of the cross that pastors and leaders can use to form their own imaginations and practices.

The Journey
In summary, life struggles, heart aches, pain, sickness are apart of life. Jesus teaches us to believe in Him and trust in Him regardless of our misfortunes, because He is an everlasting God.As we grow in faith from a baby in Christ to a child and children, our walk with the Heavenly Father should be more solid and dedicated. Everything we do and accomplish should be about our Father and most of all, pleasing Him through fellowship, serving others especially the less fortunate, praying daily as many times as possible, but most of all, I will leave my readers with this thought, stay in the word of God and be encouraged, never give up and let your light shine on through Jesus Christ our Father. If you are not a member of a church, please consider joining one of your local churches and begin to experience the word of God for yourself. In addition, Malachi 3rd chapter requires us to give a portion of our wages to Him. Please read it so you can have a better understanding of giving.

Two Righteous Men Two Wicked Cities
Two Righteous Men - Two Wicked Cities explores in depth the fascinating Bible account of Abraham and Lot, and Sodom and Gomorrah. This true story is not only an intriguing one, but a tale replete with lessons both timely and pertinent in today's America. Approach this volume with an open heart and mind, and you'll gain invaluable insights desperately needed in our lives, our families, our churches, and our nation. And perhaps like Queen Esther of old, you'll find that God has actually brought you to this time and place so that you can help make a real difference in your world! I don't believe I've ever come across a single book that was as Biblically sound and culturally relevant as "Two Righteous Men - Two Wicked Cities." This book is clearly the product of decades of Bible Study as well as depth of insight into contemporary life in America. Sam demonstrates clearly how the lives of Abraham and Lot were recorded for us as examples of the workings of God in the lives of individuals, communities and a nation. He reminds us of our Godly heritage and points clearly to the way home for America. I highly recommend this book to every student of the Bible as well as every American concerned about the future of our nation. -Reverend Bill Banuchi Sr. Executive Director New York Faith & Freedom Coalition President, Marriage & Family Savers Institute "Two Righteous Men -Two Wicked Cities" is relevant to our day and worthy of our attention and discussion.

The Advocate and The Adversary
The battle lines are drawn the moment we pledge our allegiance to our advocate. We have an adversary who is, as 1Peter 5:8 warns, "seeking to devour us." This is not something for us to fear, but to be mindful of. An advocate actively favors or fights for one who meets opposition.In John 14-18. Jesus tells His disciples He will send another Helper to them when He returns to the Father.
Collaborators In Creation
Can you look at a life with its twists and turns and predict the outcome of that life? Many people; including teachers, psychologists, and other professionals believe that circumstances determine outcomes; that broken lives are the automatic consequence of poverty, divorce, discrimination, abuse, or a myriad of other factors. This is often true, but every now and then something happens; God intervenes, and circumstances become stepping stones. As one who has lived it, I know that circumstances don't define, but enable and fortify; and can be used to declare the awesome power of a loving God in the life of His child. This story is true. I am a living testimony of the power of God.Iona Hollins graduated from Hayti (Negro) Central High School as Valedictorian in May 1959.

It felt as though every nerve in my body was popping. Imagine large strong hands slowly applying pressure while breaking a family-size package of uncooked, dry spaghetti. I was the spaghetti. Breaking down one piece at a time. This is how Juanita Rasmus begins the wise, frank, and witty account of what she later called ''The Crash'' and what her counselor labeled ''a major depressive episode.'' This experience landed Juanita, a busy pastor, mother, and community leader, in bed. In addition to exhaustion and depression, on the spiritual front she experienced a dark night of the soul. When everything in her life finally came to a stop, she found that she had to learn to be-with herself and with God-all over again. Pastor Juanita writes from her life with kind attention to the life of the reader. She offers both practical and spiritual insights but never pat answers. If you are longing for a trustworthy companion through dark days, this book is here for you. Each chapter includes life-giving spiritual practices to help you discover your own new ways of being.
The Homes of the Soul
A Jungian answer to the centuries old question: what happens when we die? Based on her own experiences following the death of her mother, Jenny Vanbergen walks through a compelling and thoughtful discussion on the possibility of life after death. Using the works of many renowned thinkers, such as Carl Jung, The Homes of the Soul takes an analytical approach as it discusses theories such as the psyche, the ego, personal and collective unconscious and the holographic universe in relation to the possibility of life after death. The books deals with complex theories, while still remaining clear and accessible. Vanbergen's warm yet scientific - and at times humorous - approach to dealing with such immense questions will bring comfort to those dealing with grief, but also appeal to anyone interested in analytical psychology or ideas surrounding the afterlife.
A Kingdom Bestowed
David's second wife, Abigail, deserves more press than she has gotten. No exegetical book exists on the current market covering her amazing persona, story, and message. It's set out in 1 Samuel 25, and the author here attempts to spell out why her message was crucial to David's coming kingdom, to the church of all ages, and to believers in the twenty-first century. She speaks in some detail of the terms of the Davidic Covenant, the grand advancement of David's kingdom, the certainty of God's protection of David during the following forty years when he would reign over Israel, how it would be that David--and all believers--can be eternally judged righteous in God's sight, why David should turn away from attempting to build his own kingdom rather than leaving that business to the Lord, and assuring him that God would give, or bestow, the kingdom to David and all who believe.
