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.
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 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 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.
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.

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.
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.

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"

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.

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.
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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

Spoken
There are questions that are never asked for reasons that are private to those who dare to ask. Feelings or thoughts are held inside for fear of ridicule. It takes boldness to speak. These words (writings) that you have or will listen to are written because I have finally, through the power of God, found the spiritual strength to release that which has been growing inside since the age of six. Your age or position in life doesn't matter. If you know deep within that God will receive all the glory, release it. Always surround yourself with those who are encouragers.

Touched for the Very First Time, by God
Ever wonder what happens when you say yes to God? I'm not talking about those who study for years or those who have devoted their entire lives to the learning, teaching, and preaching of the gospel. No, I'm talking about your average, everyday Jane or John Doe...well. hello... my name is Jane! Gwendolyn Sanders is a retired nurse from Long Island, NY. She now resides in Lakeland FL. She has been married for 45 years to Ricky, her one and only. They have 2 daughters and 6 grandchildren. The book was inspired by the growth she noticed in her life, even years after leaving Bread of Life World Outreach Center in Wyandanch, NY.
The Book of No Self
Have you ever heard, "No self, no problem?" Discover just how empowering and liberating it is to let go of the idea of self.Having spent many years reading and studying the sacred texts from the world's major traditions such as Buddhism, Zen, Christianity, Taoism, Advaita Vedanta, Hinduism, and Judaism, Scott Moss perceived a pattern and unity in all of these traditions in their speaking in one way or another of the ultimate illusion of a separate, seeking, efforting self.The Book of No Self condenses the core message of the world's many spiritual traditions into short chapters in an accessible, modern English. Using paradox, metaphors, and humor to get to the essence of the big picture questions in spirituality, Moss has written a book that is neither poetry nor spiritual teaching, per se, but with certain elements of both of these, in order to get at the pilot light that lives in all apparently separate people, thus allowing the possibility of the disappearance of the self, the greatest of all reliefs possible in this world.Similar to Huxley's The Perennial Philosophy, all traditions are looked into and represented. Unlike Huxley's book, however, the present volume is not an exercise for the intellect nor a scholarly work, but rather an attempt to emulate the immediacy and potential for awakening found in zen koans.Pick up a copy of this book, and the pilot light within may be reached, igniting to an awakening, and leading to the peace that passes all understanding.
A Quaker Prayer Life
A Quaker prayer life arises from a life of continuing daily attentiveness. The first generation of Quakers followed a covenant with God, based on assidious obedience to the promptings of the Inward Light. This process did not require the established churches, priests or liturgies. Quaker prayer then became a practice of patient waiting in silence. Prayer is a conscious choice to seek God, in whatever form that Divine Presence speaks to each of us, moment to moment. The difficulties we experience in inward prayer are preparation for our outward lives. Each time we return to the centre in prayer we are modelling how to live our lives; each time we dismiss the internal intrusions we are strengthening that of God within us and denying the role of the Self; every time we turn to prayer and to God we are seeking an increase in the measure of Light in our lives. David Johnson is a Member of Queensland Regional Meeting of the Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends. David is a geologist with both industry and academic experience, and wrote The Geology of Australia, specifically for the general public. He has a long commitment to nonviolence and opposing war and the arms trade, and has worked with the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. David delivered the 2005 Backhouse Lecture to Australia Yearly Meeting on Peace is a Struggle. He was part of the work to establish the Silver Wattle Quaker Centre in Australia in 2010, and is Co-Director of the Centre for 2013-14.

Pearls of Wisdom
FUN, INSPIRING, AND "UNCONVENTIONAL"... This book is an "assignment" God gave me. Write stories, and poems, and other things that all contain a "pearl of wisdom"; and that can be read on the "fly". I honestly believe I can tell you, I fulfilled my "heavenly assignment".I knew I had to love this book before I could offer to others. I LOVE THIS BOOK, and believe you will to. This book is designed for this fast paced generation, with twists and turns that are all designed to make the reader's journey amusing, and provocative at the same time. I know God has a sense of humor, and I'm sure you will discover that within the pages of this little book. Most of the ideas and thoughts are borne out of my own experiences before and after becoming a Christian; and I'm certain you will never look at the Bible, the subject of Christianity, or yourself in the same way ever again! I pray this small book draws all who read it's pages - closer to God, and to those you love here on earth. Blessings to all who read this book/Michael D'Aigle

If I Were to Do It Again
This book comes from a man who has walked with God in pastoral ministry for over five decades. In it Pastor Joseph Khohlisa Dube reflects on ministry and wishes if he were to begin over. Who doesn't feel that way when looking at things we have done in the past? Every profession is dynamic and begs the need for retooling. Truth be told many times we are haunted by the feeling of missed opportunities. While the stories and examples are taken from an African context, the principles apply cross-culturally. After you finish reading this book, you will certainly express the fact that you have listened to a sage pouring out his wisdom of many years. Much of what Pastor J. K. Dube articulates in this book does not come from the classroom but from religion in overalls where he encountered people from all walks of life. Zebron Ncube, DMin.Retired pastor, university professor, and church administrator.
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.
Wonder Book of Bible Stories
The Bible is one of the two or three oldest books in the world, but unlike most of the ancient books, it is found not only in great libraries, but in almost every home of the civilized world; and it is not only studied by learned scholars, but read by the common people; and its many stories grasp and hold the attention of little children. Happy is that child who has heard, over and over again, the Bible stories until they have become fixed in his mind and memory, to become the foundations of a noble life.
