【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Deliverance: The Realm of the Soul Deliverance, #2【電子書籍】[ Riaan Engelbrecht ]

＜p＞One may wonder why counselling is linked to deliverance. Well, if you consider what counselling is all about, be it professional or pastoral or simply speaking to someone about their problems, the goal is the same ? healing and deliverance. Any trauma, mental sickness, suffering or hurt is a form of a stronghold that needs to be dealt with and broken down. It is an inner storm that needs to be stilled, inner demons that need to be faced and bondages of the spirit and soul that needs to be broken. You see, we all need deliverance from such strongholds because pain, rejection, fear, guilt, shame, trauma or anger for example enslaves us. We all need deliverance from certain yokes and bondages, for even wrong mindsets and hurt can cripple us emotionally, spiritually and can even lead to our bodies suffering sickness and ailments. Ultimately, no matter your pain, trauma, affliction, hurt, or oppression, it serves as a form of enslavement. God does not want us to be enslaved. He wants us to be free, liberated, restored and healed. God ultimately wants us to be healed spiritually, then in the soul and then in the body. True spiritual counselling thus adopts a holistic approach, dealing with the spirit, soul and body.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Choose Life or Death Part Two In pursuit of God【電子書籍】[ Riaan Engelbrecht ]

＜p＞Our entire spiritual journey, along with our free will, boils down to either choosing to walk with Jesus (LIFE) or choosing the way of the world (DEATH). In God there is life, and life in abundance. Not just eternal life, but life in spirit, in soul and in body. Yet, there is a real difference between knowing of Him and knowing Him. In Him we abide in life, and walk in such life, but this calls for obedience to His Truth, to His Way and to His Kingdom. From a true relationship with the Lord, not religion, flows life and the blessings of such divine life. The Life and Death series is a volume of work stretching over many years, guided by the Holy Spirit, for the disciples of the Lord to understand that we can walk in life, yet this calls for remaining true to the Word, to His Will, to His Ways and His Kingdom. May we choose God, and then we choose His life of beauty, hope and wonder. If we choose the broad path, we wander the hallways of spiritual corruption, moral bankruptcy and ultimately, self-destruction in spirit, soul and body. Jesus gave His life so that we may walk in His abundant life of grace, mercy and love.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Living in Wonder Finding Mystery and Meaning in a Secular Age【電子書籍】[ Rod Dreher ]

＜p＞In 2018, at the end of a speech Rod Dreher gave in Genoa, an artist gave him an engraving by his own hand. In broken English, the artist explained that he was in his studio that afternoon when the Holy Spirit told him that he should come hear Rod Dreher, and give him a particular drawing of an obscure medieval saint. None of this made sense to Dreher until two years later, lost in depression and confusion, the saint - a Tuscan hermit named Galgano - appeared in Dreher's life again under circumstances that did not at all seem coincidental, sending Dreher on a search for God's will for his life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A lifetime of experiencing mystical events and collecting stories from others has solidified Dreher's Christian faith, and convinced him that God reveals himself to us all the time - but we in the modern West have lost our capacity to sense God's presence. How did this happen to us, but not to other peoples in the world? Can it be reversed? If so, how?＜/p＞ ＜p＞LIVING IN WONDER tells the story of how the West became "disenchanted", and gives practical advice - based on history, cultural anthropology, and neuroscience, as well as the testimonies of monks of the ancient Church - on how to regain one's sense of wonder and awareness of the divine. Told through real-life stories of people who experienced miracles, visitations by saints and angels, and in some cases wrestled with demons, this book will open your mind to the reality that the material world is not all there is, and that God is not as silent and as elusive as you might think. You just need to learn how to see with clear eyes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Join Rod Dreher as he explores why 'contemporary' Christianity seems so empty, and why so many young people are walking away from it. He argues that the enchanted sacramental vision of the church of the first millennium is still true, only hidden, and that the experience of God is something that can happen to anyone - if they are willing to take the risk.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

But when we grow up, we learn to suppress this critical, hardwired instinct and our lives become ruled by “getting things done.” As world-famous designer Cas Holman explains, this disconnection from our playful selves is hazardous to everything from our emotional wellbeing to our ability to problem solve and innovate. The emerging science of play shows that it sparks joy, wonder, creativity, and insight at any age.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Here, Holman explains the power of “free play” through open-ended, unstructured activities that we become absorbed in with no obvious goal or purpose. The ways we can play are endless and what recharges us most is unique to each of us: whether it’s a piece of art we create, an entertaining conversation with a stranger, or an experiment to shake up a routine task. Weaving in inspiring stories and eye-opening research, Holman shows us that adopting a playful mindset is crucial in helping us:＜/p＞ ＜ul＞ ＜li＞Overcome fear of failure and embrace new ways of thinking＜/li＞ ＜li＞Destress, reset, and connect with each other＜/li＞ ＜li＞Grow our creativity at every stage of our lives＜/li＞ ＜li＞Find joy in bleak times＜/li＞ ＜/ul＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Playful＜/em＞ draws on psychology, history, art, and design thinking to make a powerful case for the vital importance of play for grown-ups in a world obsessed with productivity.

＜p＞＜strong＞Rediscovered spiritual writings from "the most profound thinker of the 19th century" (Ludwig Wittgenstein).＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"The 'Kierkegaard' known to history is, in an important sense, not Kierkegaard at all. His true point of view is found in his religious writings." ーGeorge Pattison, from the Foreword＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this new collection, Oxford theologian George Pattison translates and selects S?ren Kierkegaard's previously neglected writings on spiritualityーworks that greatly deepen our understanding of the influential thinker. In philosophy and literature, Kierkegaard ("By far the most profound thinker of the nineteenth century" ーLudwig Wittgenstein) is generally perceived as epitomizing existential angst. However, there is much more to Kierkegaard than the popular image of the "melancholy Dane" or the iconoclastic critic of established Christendom. Alongside the pseudonymous books for which he is largely known, Kierkegaard also wrote many devotional works, which he called "upbuilding" or "edifying" discourses. Taken as a whole, these writings offer something very different from the popular viewーthey embody a spirituality grounded in a firm sense of human life as a divine gift.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"Here is the great Danish master of irony and subversion speaking with an earnestness and plainness that is all the more powerful for being unfamiliar. . . . George Pattison offers us a deeply valuable introduction to a great philosopher's hidden simplicities." ーRowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"Fascinating and perplexing in equal measure, these exegeses on gospel and biblical sayings display a side of the great 19th-century philosopher Kierkegaard . . .that is considerably less familiar to modern readers than his status as a protoexistentialist. . . .

As in ＜em＞Gold＜/em＞, Gafori renders with fluid grace and moving immediacy these indisputable masterworks of world literature, drawing on the deep well of Rumi’s work to bring out the worldly wit and wisdom that accompany his otherworldly summons. Behold the divine within and without, he tells us. Question the gnawing hunger for material possessions, fame, and fortune, and the fear of emptiness that drives it. Muster the soul, and experience a more compassionate and liberated state of mind. An eco-poet before his time, Rumi celebrates the immensity and wonder of the natural world while warning us of the havoc that greed and the pursuit of power wreak upon us and our world. His flights of dazzling imagery open up heart-stopping glimpses of the divine, challenging readers to wake from oblivion, and above all, to surrender to the transformative power of Love.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Gafori is an acclaimed vocalist and musician as well as a gifted linguist and poet, and in her translations Rumi's poetry sings and beckons as nowhere else. Hers is the work, as the poet Marilyn Hacker has said, "of someone who is at once an acute and enamored reader of the original Farsi text, a dedicated miner of context and backstory, and, best of all, a marvelous poet in English.”＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

But these experiences are not easily understood by science, which holds that all things can be explained in terms of atoms and molecules. Is there space in our scientific worldview for these spiritual experiences?＜/p＞ ＜p＞According to acclaimed physicist and novelist Alan Lightman, there may be. Drawing on intellectual history and conversations with contemporary scientists, philosophers, and psychologists, Lightman asks a series of thought-provoking questions that illuminate our strange place between the world of particles and forces and the world of complex human experience. Can strict materialism explain our appreciation of beauty? Or our feelings of connection to nature and to other people? Is there a physical basis for consciousness, the most slippery of all scientific problems?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lightman weaves these investigations together to propose what he calls “spiritual materialism”ー the belief that we can embrace spiritual experiences without letting go of our scientific worldview. In his view, the breadth of the human condition is not only rooted in material atoms and molecules but can also be explained in terms of Darwinian evolution.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What is revealed in this lyrical, enlightening book is that spirituality may not only be compatible with science, it also ought to remain at the core of what it means to be human.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
