The Parzival Mystery Stream in the Twentieth Century
Throughout the arc of human history, individuals have taken up high ideals and aims and brought them into the world in a tangible and practical manner. These individuals rarely work in isolation, but rather in groups, bound together by a common purpose and destiny. One such group-the Grail circle as described in the 11th century epic of Parzival-stepped forward and became the pillars of the twentieth century nonviolent social movements: Mahatma Gandhi in India, Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. in America, and Nelson Mandela in South Africa.Laying a foundation in the work of Rudolf Steiner and building on lifelong research, Spaulding presents the basis for his own path of investigation into reincarnation and introduces insights into the rhythmic patterns of circles of individuals who return to the arena of earthly life to renew and advance the distinct spiritual missions which constitute the epochs of human history. Illustrating this idea through sketches of the Founders of the United States in the eighteenth century and the leaders of the American Civil War in the nineteenth century, Spaulding expands his scope to describe the individual leaders of the Civil Rights and Human Rights movements in twentieth century America-Reverend King, Malcom X, and Fred Hampton-and to characterize the circle of companions who worked alongside them to advance the Parzival Mystery Stream.

God’s Mail Volume 1
I have been Ron Hardin's pastor and friend for the past twenty-five years and have seen his words come to pass in a remarkable way. God has comforted, encouraged, directed, rebuked, reproved, prophesied, and edified multitudes (myself included) through Ron's poems. As you get quiet before God and read the poems contained in this book, something amazingly powerful will occur. God will speak to you right where you are on the subject you most need today. Don't underestimate "the God factor" in the words because they rhyme. The words weren't selected by a man seeking to complete a sentence with similar sounding wordage. The words were given by the Spirit of God in this unique form to help you and bless you. Pastor Glen Curry www.pillarsoffaith.com Some will read His Heart's Collection, some will study it and some won't be able to get enough. All will be blessed. There are nuggets of blessings more than enough to go around. Hoab Hueffmeir Palm Springs, California These gatherings of writings over the years are poetic, prophetic revelations straight from the Father's heart. Read and re-read this book to be encouraged and an encouragement to others. I highly recommend it and know you will be blessed every time you read another line.

Diary of a Strong Black Woman
This book is my story where I was and where I am going. From the first you saw things and read, I had to grow into the woman I am today. Yes I have skeletons and flaws. I'm not perfect nor will I ever be. People are quit to judge you by what others say when they have the same speck in their life. In life, you can't be quick to judge and condemn someone because you dislike this person over what others have said. I love the woman I am today because my pain is my purpose. My vision is plain because I recite and wrote it to make it plain. Without a vision, you have no dream. With all things you can do have and be. Believe in self. Your story is your testimony you have been tested to help someone else. My story can help others to be themselves and speak out. Don't be shame of what you did or do. Encourage others to be the narrator of their story, not others.

Changing Paths
Whether you are leaving religion altogether, or leaving one religion and joining another, Changing Paths aims to help you make sense of the twists and turns on your journey. Yvonne Aburrow has made the journey and is an excellent guide.
Growing in Holiness through the Psalms
In a confused world with moral decay, we need clear direction for godly living. While the mention of holiness is not commonly heard these days, the Psalms call us to cultivate holy lives in today's society. The psalmists not only teach us how to grow in holiness but they draw us into their own rich experiences. The author explores the Psalms to give us a perspective on the nature of holiness and the many important ways we can grow in holiness. The Psalter serves as an invaluable guide for our spiritual formation as followers of Jesus Christ.
Farewell to Darwinian Evolution
Farewell to Darwinian Evolution affirms the views of honest scientists and philosophers, such as atheists Jerry Fodor and Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini, who in their book, What Darwin Got Wrong (New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2010), insist on something is critically wrong with Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Farewell to Darwinian Evolution lends support to members of credible scientific organizations and magazines, such as the New Scientists, who chose integrity over conformity and declared on the front page of its 24-30 January 2009 issue that "Darwin Was Wrong [: ] Cutting Down the Tree of Life." Leading evolutionists have consistently dismissed any opposition to Darwinian evolution, which was built on analogy rather than experiments. The Darwinian theory of evolution contends that new species are formed gradually by random variation and through competition. Empirical evidence shows the opposite; that is, new species are formed rapidly with intent and through cooperation. Darwinism and anti-Darwinism cannot be both rights. Because empirical science is neutral, the only correct resolution is to bid farewell to Darwinism. There was no common ancestor, and there are no missing links. Honest scientists will also professionally and comfortably bid farewell to natural selection as a designing agency. Thus, the truth about humanity's origin cannot be obtained through theoretical studies of our surroundings. If nature, which obeys laws, is not the creator, who is? The appropriate question is, "are we here by chance, or do we belong to an agent who is supposed to inform us about our origin and purpose in life?" In light of this question, John Rennie, chief editor of Scientific American, in his July 2002 article, wrote: "If super-intelligent aliens appeared and claimed credit for creating life on Earth (or even particular species), the purely evolutionary explanation would be cast in doubt. But no one has yet produced such evidence." Rennie was right in his request for a claimant, but he was wrong in his conclusion that no one has come forward to claim ownership. Farewell to Darwinian Evolution provides details of God's patent and seal of ownership of the world.
Dr. Roy E. Richmond’s Musings & Contemplations of the Sacred Scripture
We are the Book of Life; therefore, we must go within to learn the truth of the Word so that the Truth will be evident in what we write, teach and share with others. Although the Sacred Scriptures are mostly universally considered the printed Bible only, the accurate Scriptures are the Book of Life within our Divine Mind, flowing to our conscious awareness. The written Word is as a clue to a more vital part of the Scriptures than appears since they have both a literal and a spiritual significance. Dr. Roy E. Richmond serves as a Pastor, Scribe, Professor, and Author. The One hundred and fifty Musings and Contemplations in this book are a tiny portion of his 35 years of contemplating the spiritual understandings of the written Word. Each one will bring an excellent knowledge of the Truth to the reader.
Mountain Devotional
The San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado are among the least known and least visited of the Colorado Rockies, yet they are thought by many, especially those who live here, to be the most beautiful and serene. It is against this backdrop that Candy Beebe and Julie Stephens present Mountain Devotional. In a time that American Christianity seems focused on large churches seating thousands, the authors take us along on quiet adventures far from crowds and traffic and even roads. Centered in the USGA-designated most remote country in the lower 48 they lead us toward a sense of prayer and peace that Jesus must have felt when he climbed, often alone, toward a special experience of the Holy.While Jesus was hardly a 'mountain man' in the modern sense, his attraction to them almost reminds one of John Muir's well-known quotes, "The mountains are calling and I must go." What called Jesus to these special places? And may it, if we listen closely, call us as well?Often, Jesus led his disciples to a mountain. At the conclusion of his earthly ministry they went on their own to a mountain "...to which Jesus had directed them." There they encountered him.In this devotional, though they may at first seem to be simply about a bear or rocks or birds or sky, we too may encounter the Lord himself. That is the purpose, after all, of Mountain Devotional.Ed NettletonLake City, Colorado May 2013

A Grammar of Holy Mystery
A Grammar of Holy Mystery is about Christian spirituality. It is about mysticism as a firsthand encounter with the presence of God--unfathomable, unnamable, mysterious, fulfilling. It is about classical Christianity, the way of transforming truth found in Christ, taught in Scripture, lived by saints, sages, and mystics, and passed on as a sacred trust through the centuries. Being neither liberal nor conservative, but simply Christian, it is ecumenical in spirit. For those traumatized by harsh or shallow churches, A Grammar of Holy Mystery points the way out and shows the way to a faith that renews the mind, restores the spirit, and gladdens the heart.

The Warrior’s Quiver
Andrew Meyrick never intended to write a book. However He was prompted by the Lord to write Warriors of Love as a primer for believers in Jesus Christ to understand why they needed to be warriors in God's Army.Following the successful publication of Warriors of Love, it became clear that the Lord had further plans for him to write and expand on explaining revelations he was receiving, to the world.He kept journals, set up a website, WarriorsofLovenet.wordpress.com.In 2013 on the 8th May he had such a profound out of body experience with his girlfriend, Elo, soon to become his wife, that as a result he knew some irrefutable facts: Jesus Christ is aliveThe City of God is realThe Heavens and the New Jerusalem are realAll good things originate in Heaven before they manifest on Earth.Jesus is returning.The Lord's prayer and the lines 'On Earth as it is in Heaven' were drilled into his heart.The warrior he had written about before clearly had a powerful ordinance provided by God to wage his war of Love. Warriors Quiver a form of sequel, follows.
Love, Devotion, and Longing
This is the COMBINED VOLUME of the 2-book Love and Devotion Series, which includes The Love of Being Loving and The Love of Devotion. A grand and magnificent truth radiates from within all of life and each of us. May you discover in your heart a sweet lightness, the luminescent glow of God's beauty, and a genuine appreciation for the wonderful gift of life, which glows unmarred through every human error. We are loved by the Divine, loved into existence. That, in itself, is enough to reassure each one of us of our inestimable worth. The Love of Being Loving is about the earlier adult years of my spiritual development. Dr Thomas Hora (Metapsychiatry) and Mary Baker Eddy (Christian Science) were the most significant influences on my spiritual path during my twenties and thirties. The second book is The Love of Devotion. In my forties, I started reading a series of metaphysical books by Dr David R. Hawkins. I realised they profoundly impacted my growth, and Dr Hawkins became my next spiritual teacher. Dr Hawkins (Devotional Nonduality) and Dr Hora came from similar spiritual and intellectual terrain. We are drawn to a certain field of truth that resonates with our inner leanings. My interest in understanding thought drew me to teachers who also had a deep interest in human consciousness.
Shiva Gita
Every Gita has a central theme around which it revolves, and a unique style of rendering the message. Shiva Gita primarily focuses on preaching about Lord Shiva who is the essence of all Vedas, and it reveals the path to salvation sailing with the sailor called 'Shiva'. So, for a spiritual seeker who doesn't belong to any sect, this would be a good source of wisdom. And for a Shiva devotee or a Shaivite, this Gita would be like a treasure. Therefore, it must be understood clearly that comparison between Gitas is an absurd activity, and everyone is expected to learn from this text and remain blissful in the devotion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Shiva.
The Journey Within
The Journey Within is a spiritual guidebook in which Sonia Ross LCSW-C, shares the insight and inspiration she was given from spirit regarding A Course In Miracles. She explains how we can apply the principles in our lives to help us choose joy and love instead of pain and suffering. There are no big or small healing opportunities. All are the same regardless of the situation that appeared to trigger the healing opportunity. You may need healing after losing faith in a relationship or any experience of loss or change in your life. The individual situation is not what matters. What is most important is the disruption we feel within and the call for healing. Healing reconnects us to God consciousness, the Holy Spirit and our indwelling presence. The healed mind naturally expresses love and compassion. It is an automatic response not one which can be directed by thought or the ego. This experience of love through the healed mind inspires us and rises from deep within us. When we look at the world through the healed mind we experience the miracle.

The Little Way
We want to love God with all our hearts, but we often find ourselves striving in our efforts to please Him, acutely aware of our weaknesses. As our failures pile up, we become frustrated and discouraged. Have we missed the essence of the gospel? Is there a simple but true way to serve God that can fill us with joy and peace rather than fear and discouragement? St. Th矇r癡se of Lisieux faced similar struggles. As a young woman who desired to abandon herself to God, she felt daunted at the thought of climbing "the steep stairway of perfection." Th矇r癡se searched the Scriptures until she discovered a path to freedom she called her "little way." This is "the way of spiritual childhood, the way of trust and absolute surrender." It is a recognition that while we are small and imperfect, we have a mighty God who reaches out to us with infinite love, grace, and strength to take care of all our needs. As Th矇r癡se followed this new path, she considered herself a "little flower" in Jesus's garden. She understood that she was beloved by her heavenly Father and delightful in His eyes. And she could bloom right where He planted her as she daily demonstrated His unconditional love to others in small but meaningful acts of kindness and interceded on their behalf. This beautiful book highlights St. Th矇r癡se's deep insights into faith and devotion, while visually capturing, through simple floral illustrations, the theme of simplicity that permeated her life. As you read excerpts from St. Th矇r癡se's autobiography, poetry, and letters--tracing such themes as "littleness," God's immense love for us, our devotion to God, loving others, prayer, humility, surrender, sacrifice, trust, and the joys of heaven--you will learn to rest in the loving arms of your heavenly Father, allowing your own faith to grow and flourish.
The Holy Spirit
The Time is here the time is now, we're in the last hours not days anymore. For what's a thousand years to my Lord or even a year but minutes in His Kingdom.
The Immigrant Soul - The Universal God Theory
At the age of five, Nando Speranza had his first out-of-body experience. Alone and afraid, a voice comforted him. This was only the beginning of these occurrences that ignited the author's desire for connection through relationships, music, and a higher power. The Immigrant Soul and The Universal God Theory are two books bonded by Speranza's search for meaning. The first highlights significant moments in the author's life from his family's origins and extraordinary birth to his music career and spiritual experiences. Perseverance and resilience are the heart of this autobiography. In The Universal God Theory, Speranza's existential quest continues. Through research and analysis, the author examines the foundations of various religions and he seeks to answer some of life's biggest questions.For readers wondering the meaning of life, these books will offer proof of a high power. Lovers of immigrant stories will enjoy reading how one man never gave up on his dreams despite the obstacles set before him. With so many spiritual questions raised, the author reminds us that "we must comfort ourselves by accepting the fact that we will never fully be at ease with the intricate inner workings of the universe.""If you believe in love and all that it is, you will eventually understand its glory as only God could have created something as beautiful as this"
Finding God in a World Come of Age
During his days in prison in Berlin, Dietrich Bonhoeffer had time to read and reflect on the Enlight-enment and to ask the question of how Christians might live in a world come of age. One can interpret Karl Rahner's theological and pastoral writing as addressing that question. Born in 1904, he lived through both World Wars to a ripe age of 80 and wrote 1651 published works. Although his writing had a unique historical genesis and intellectual setting, along with a technical vocabulary, he consistently wrote out of pastoral concern in an effort to make Christian faith and belief credible in his Western European culture and the new post-WWII context. Probably his most important student was Johann Baptist Metz who was born in Germany 1928, conscripted into the army as a teenager, and after it, turned to the seminary and to theology. He studied with Rahner in Innsbruck and received his doctorate in theology in 1961 and taught at the University of M羹nster for thirty years. As Dorothee Soelle converted Bultmann's existential analysis into social commitments, so did Metz give new social meaning to Rahner's "transcendental" theology in a time of social cataclysm. Thus, together, Rahner and Metz, not in competition but as complementary, offer a distinctive response to the spiritual question of finding God in the present-day secular world.
Enlightened Spirituality
This volume presents reflections on the nature of Christian spirituality in the light of Immanuel Kant's work Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysic of Morals. It also contains two short com-ments on Kant's work: Paul Tillich directly engages Kant's moral philosophy, and Reinhold Niebuhr indirectly addresses him with his reflections on the role of conscience in religious experience. The whole volume rests on the constituent role that morality, and hence ethics, plays in a comprehen-sive understanding of Christian spirituality. Kant adds to that discussion by introducing the voice of the Enlightenment into the conversation. His work serves as a bridge between the spirituality displayed in the Medieval and Reformation periods and what may be called modern Western culture. Christians who are socialized into twenty-first century Western intellectual culture may be relatively unfamiliar with the cultures that spawned the characteristic accents of the spiritual languages that are learned in the churches today. When they move into the world of higher educa-tion, they will learn a whole series of ideas from science and critical modern thought that directly challenge the ordinary spiritual conceptions of church traditions. The critical discussion between intellectual culture and Christianity during the period of the Enlightenment was deep and serious, and it helps to explain how the churches in the West relate to present-day intellectual culture. Kant's text on the metaphysics of morals presents in an exemplary way the deep questions that Christian spirituality faces today with almost laboratory precision. The two commentators neatly draw the conversation into contexts that are closer to life in the world of our time.

Revealed & Healed
This book was written to teach you how to unlock the power within to heal your body. Many people in the world are sick and rely on the healthcare system for help. When I relied on doctors and medication, it always brought more sickness. God (Yahweh) healed me with natural food, fasting, herbs, and faith. This book is my story of how I won my twenty-one-year struggle with disease. God showed me that you can be healed if you believe, without a doubt. Your affliction is only a test that you must pass to bring out the greatness in you. I won my battle, and so can you. Arise out of your pain and be victorious, no matter how hard it is. God is waiting for you to build a relationship with Him and put Him first in everything you do. You can overcome your sickness, no matter what you have been told. Have faith and know that with God you are unstoppable-you were built to win! My name is Carmalita Howard. I am 35 years old, and I graduated from Ohio State University with a Bachelor of Science in Human Ecology. I have been through much sickness in my life. I was diagnosed with Lupus, Avascular Necrosis of the hips, Common Variable Immune Deficiency (CVID), Bronchiectasis, Mucus Cough, Sensory Neuropathic Cough, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Sinusitis, Avascular Necrosis of the knees, Brain Lesions, Cysts and Myositis Ossificans. God healed me of all my diseases, and I wrote this book to tell my testimony and glorify God's marvelous work in my life.
Power of the Blood 2
In 2006, I wrote a book entitled: POWER OF THE BLOOD. It is now the Year of Our Lord, 2023 and I am directed by the Holy Ghost to write another book exalting the magnificent energy and significance of the Sacrificial Lamb's BLOOD and call it: POWER OF THE BLOOD 2. I do not yet know what will be in this book, but I know that through this book, God will teach us new things and prepare us for the days ahead. We are living in Perilous Times-The Last Days, so we must learn from the Holy Ghost, who dwells inside of every Believer, how to apply and use the Blood of Jesus to overcome the spirit of the anti-Christ, which is already in our world, anxiously waiting for the departure of the Gentile Believers, who, through the Holy Ghost are the only obstacle that is holding-back the anti-Christ and keeping this "woke-spirit" from totally taking-over, controlling, corrupting and destroying planet earth.
Heart to Heart
The title of this book, Heart to Heart, is from the eight-day retreat. On the eighth day of the retreat, Fr. Chris, the retreat director, gave me three scripture passages and the "Contemplation to Attain Love" to pray. The theme of the day was God's promise of hope. He said that these prayers were "heart to heart" and recommended I pray with my heart rather than with my thoughts. I didn't understand clearly what that meant, but it became clearer to me when I finished the three scripture prayers. It was a beautiful and perfecting experience, which transformed the troubling prayers in my mind into prayers that were heart to heart.
Benedictine Life
Benedictine Life: A Vision Unfolding is about a vision-a vision that arose more than 1,500 years ago when St. Benedict penned his rule for monks. A 21st century way forward for this tradition will arise only when we immerse ourselves in its wisdom teaching and emulate the witness of those who have invested their lives in it over many centuries. Only then will the vision unfold for us. Benedictine Life: A Vision Unfolding was also the title of the Centennial Colloquium of the Benedictine women's Monastic Congregation of St. Scholastica that took place June 21-24, 2022. Participants were Benedictine women and men, professed, oblates and seekers. This book is a compilation of the papers presented at that Colloquium, with the addition of an introduction by Benedictine Sister Joan Chittister who served as president of the Congregation from 1971-1978. These are the presenters and responders whose papers you will find in this book: Judith Sutera, OSB, Deborah Asberry, Edith Bogue, OSB, Linda Romey, OSB, Patricia Fawkner, SGS, Katie Gordon, Judith Valente, Oblate, Joanna Burley, OSB. May the insights and questions they present guide us into the next 100 years.
Inner Visions and Running Trains
Surprisingly, one of the more lucid insights on the philosophy of the Tibetan Book of the Dead comes from a Hindu mystic, named Baba Faqir Chand, who apparently was not familiar with the original Tibetan text or its English translation. Although Faqir was not conversant with the Bardo Thotrol, he was nevertheless steeped in its philosophy as taught to him by his guru, Shiv Brat Lal of Gopiganj. Faqir Chand, like his lama counterparts, spent much of his life in meditation, attempting to consciously go through the dying process in order to prepare himself for his final exit. However, unlike others of his kind, Faqir left a detailed account of his some 70-plus years of meditation (ranging from three to 12 hours daily) which led up to his enlightenment. The result is a richly detailed account which provides a thorough understanding of how inner visions and the like are projected in the intermediate stages between life and death.
Can You Please Explain That?
Having trouble understanding A Course in Miracles? I totally get it. It read like Greek to me when I first picked it up, which would have been okay, but I don't speak Greek! I found the best understanding comes from practicing. This book is a compilation of "answers" that I gave to a very special Life Coaching client. If it helps you half as much as it helped her, your joy will increase with every chapter.
Help Lord, Help!
Is there anything too hard for God? Is there anything too big for Him to handle? From pandemics, economic collapse to the intimacy of a shattered heart, God is there, aware, and more than willing to help us in our time of need. In this book, I will show you how to USE YOUR VOICE to remind yourself that God is our Hope and our Helper. Whether your troubles are light or you are experiencing a devasting hardship, you will learn throughout this book how to personalize the scriptures and speak God-approved words over yourself so that you can endure whatever life brings. "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid." Hebrews 13:6 NIV
Golden Nuggets
Throughout our journey through life, we have come across a wide range of experiences, both positive and negative. Those encounters also contain lessons intended to instruct and direct us on what we should or should not do. Having learned the lessons life is attempting to teach us, we will never again have to deal with them. Even if we fail to understand the lesson, it doesn't simply disappear. It's a recurring theme that'll follow you through your entire life. Things Collected Along the Way is a collection of lessons and experiences Wykinnya has learned throughout her life.
Bound by Truth
Biblical beliefs addressed according to scripture and not man's understanding, particularly in the New Testament, about the life and ministry of Jesus, the ministry and belief in what has happened and what is to come. And the necessary path of righteousness. In these pages, that path is set straight. Answering many beliefs in proper context to scripture and dismissing those false claims made today within many churches and many people. Subjects such as the Rapture resurrection, Was Jesus a carpenter? Was Elijah raptured? How that happened before affects what happens next. And 100s more little truths often passed over for the bigger picture.
The Joy and Power of Your Eternal Self
Learn about your inner connections: Keep your faith but learn to see things in a new way; you are never alone, and inspiration, guidance and hope are never far away. We are all one in spirit. You are able to connect into your Eternal Self energy and abolish fear and worry, and to utilise the subconscious aspects of your mind to transform your life. You have the Eternal Spirit of God within, know that, and remember the love, peace and happiness of your soul. That which you seek you already are, for God is all things, and you are that.
Develop Your Spiritual Business
Just as we have learned, developed, and exercised an occupation in our temporal lives for our jobs and our wellbeing; we also are given spiritual trades by which we may do God's will within any community setting we find ourselves. That's what the Spiritual Business Principle Series and Develop Your Spiritual Business are all about. If you take a few precious hours to think through your personal attributes, personal mission, and how you can apply it to each human transaction within your community setting; you will establish valuable positioning for a great account to give to the Judge on account to give to the Judge on accountability day.
A Place for You, the End of Days
The book while it is about a vision I saw is also an extension of what was and is and will be. It tells of the Place Jesus said he was preparing for you. It like everything he was telling us is for the individual, not the social group or geographic area but a place for us to be able to withstand all of the terrible things that are to come. individually not as a group where you rely on what others say.
Unraveled
"What if you are afraid to be free? You feel pulled to the unknown yet taking that first step into what appears to be darkness, keeps your feet planted firmly in what is known. What is it that calls to you from uncharted territory? Who is it? In a rush to what is familiar, you become attached yet again, to another thread. Each thread represents one year, a belief, an identity, a persona, trauma, and successes. Imagine...every concept you thought to be true, begins to erase itself. Where would that leave you? Each thread of your life carries identity. When your perceived identity becomes unraveled, what would be left staring back at you in the mirror? Unraveled reveals what is left and if nothing else is left to unravel perhaps, this is when you reach peak freedom. The elimination of the full picture yields space for someone new to be revealed. What's left is uncharted territory. Will you be curious to dive into the uncharted? Deanna Lorea wished no credit be given to her as she states "I am only the vessel. God spoke to me through my experiences while becoming undone and told me to write what He was revealing to me. A year later, He told me it was time to release it. I had no idea that this book was already completed." She considers herself a means by which He wanted to get His word to believers and unbelievers. "There is more already being written as part two of this three part series unfolds. We are all becoming undone and I want to help make your UnDoing normalized and celebrated." Shedding layers of domestication, years of pain, and self-made identity is never easy, but you have people going through this with you. Join The Undoing Community with the QR code. Your people are waiting to celebrate the Undoing and Becoming of you.
