Have you ever asked yourself what changed when you were "born again?" You look in the mirror and see the same reflection - your body hasn't changed. You find yourself acting the same and yielding to those same old temptations - that didn't seem to change either. So you wonder, Has anything really changed? The correct...

Publishers Weekly Best Book in Religion 2020 Foreword Review's INDIES Book of the Year Award, Religion In Theological Territories, David Bentley Hart, one of America's most eminent contemporary writers on religion, reflects on the state of theology "at the borders" of other fields of discourse—metaphysics, philosophy of mind, science, the arts, ethics, and biblical hermeneutics in particular. The book advances many of Hart's larger theological projects, developing and deepening numerous dimensions of his previous work. Theological Territories constitutes something of a manifesto regarding the manner in which theology should engage other fields of concern and scholarship. The essays are divided into five sections on the nature of theology, the relations between theology and science, the connections between gospel and culture, literary representations of and engagements with transcendence, and the New Testament. Hart responds to influential books, theologians, philosophers, and poets, including Rowan Williams, Jean-Luc Marion, Tomáš Halík, Sergei Bulgakov, Jennifer Newsome Martin, and David Jones, among others. The twenty-six chapters are drawn from live addresses delivered in various settings. Most of the material has never been printed before, and those parts that have appear here in expanded form. Throughout, these essays show how Hart's mind works with the academic veneer of more formal pieces stripped away. The book will appeal to both academic and non-academic readers interested in the place of theology in the modern world.

Nothing will change your prayer life, your church, or your study of God's Word more than opening your heart to the Holy Spirit. Join Pastor Jim Cymbala as he invites you to discover a deeper understanding of how the Holy Spirit moves, and let Spirit Rising be your guide along the way.

In Spirit Rising, Jim Cymbala combines biblical insights with stunning stories of the Holy Spirit's work to help you experience God's power in a new way. For so many of us, faith is harder than it should be. Discouraged, anxious, and worn down, we wonder what happened to the power and the joy that Jesus promised. But Jim believes that many of us are missing something vital. In Spirit Rising, Jim teaches us that if you aren't vitally in touch with God's Spirit, you are missing out on the life God has for you. With stunning stories of God at work and biblical teaching about the Holy Spirit, Jim invites you to experience God as the Bible intended, teaching us how to: Tap into the power of the Holy Spirit Look for signs and symbols of renewal in your life Surrender to the Holy Spirit Praise for Spirit Rising: "Jim Cymbala invites you and me to raise our sails and ride the warm winds of God's Spirit.

The human being is an energy field of the Spirit. A weakening of this energy field through negative thinking and living leads to illness. The right way of living and positive thinking, on the other hand, allows us to be healthy and remain spiritually active. Find access to your soul, and get to know the consciousness centers, the switching point of the spiritual-divine life force, the link between soul and body. Experience self-healing via the power of the Spirit with various illnesses as well as the effects of different types of fragrances, colors and sounds. Who among us has no need for physical, mental or spiritual healing? This book provides an unimaginable help for the reader. Whether it’s spiritual healing for depression, fatigue or apathy, or relief for tension and physical pain… Or, perhaps, we simply need a bit of “spiritual therapy,” guidance for a stronger physical and mental health, in God. The answer to problems of physical and mental health lies in God, within us, each person. A person’s world of thoughts revolves mainly around his own concerns. Thus, he thinks about what he could treat himself with externally: what food, what herb or medicine might keep his body flexible, fresh and healthy. This way of thinking already contributes to the reduction of the spiritual ether powers that could give him all he needs for his physical and mental health and healing. God, the eternally existing ether power in soul and person, could be his provider and healer, a true spiritual therapy for soul and body. Through negative, that is, impure, thoughts and human conceptions, the will to do good in us slackens. This reduces the divine will power and, as a result, the soul does not find its way to God. But with a life tuned evermore to God in us, we can activate the self-healing forces for a profound healing: mental, physical and spiritual.

Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement in the world, currently estimated to have at least 500 million adherents. In the movement's early years, most Pentecostal converts lived in relative poverty, yet the rapidly shifting social ecology of Pentecostal Christians includes many middle-class individuals, as well as an increasing number of young adults attracted by the music and vibrant worship of these churches. The stereotypical view of Pentecostals as "other-worldly" and disengaged from politics and social ministry is also being challenged, as Pentecostals-including many who are committed to working for social and political change-constitute growing minorities in many countries. Spirit and Power addresses three main questions: Where is Pentecostalism growing globally? Why it is growing? What is its social and political impact? The contributors to this volume include theologians, historians, and social scientists, who bring their diverse disciplinary perspectives to bear on these empirical questions. The essays draw on extensive survey research as well as in-depth ethnographic field methods, with analyses offering diverging and sometimes competing explanations for the growth and impact of Pentecostalism around the world.

A critical work into the working and theology of the most mysterious person of the holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit. Many times Christians recognize but do not focus on the Holy Spirit even though He is the most active person of the Godhood in our world today. This work goes to correct that and delves into Scripture to reveal to us how he works and what he is like so that we can properly revere him as Almighty God.

"Logos 2, Vol. 1 is the second of my ten-volume, Logos 1-7 work, each volume of which is able to stand alone as God’s Book of Life. It took me over 3,000 pages in ten volumes to say How and What is Important to Believe. It seeks to explain by experience who Jesus is, who God is, who the Holy Spirit is, what the Bible is, why it is crucial to life that we believe in them, what “belief” is, what “to be saved” is, just how Salvation is effected, what the “take-away” benefits are, and how to find meaning and purpose in life. Each of these ten volumes is able to stand alone as God’s Book of Life, portraying Life with the Holy Spirit by belief in the Christ of Jesus as Savior to eternal life with God. The ten volumes relate my Story of Writing God's Book of Life, using nonfiction essays and poetry with daily help of divine intervention in producing my seven Logos Work of ten volumes, and the four supporting volumes, all seek to fully understand and explain this work inspired by the Holy Spirit, the Christ of Jesus. The action of God fulfilled for him in seven years all of Rodger Crafton's dreams of becoming a writer of poetry and prose, an armchair philosopher, and an artist working in his new, upstairs garage atelier.
