Learning Religion

Trying to lead the Christian life without the Holy Spirit’s power is like trying to function without air. It’s simply not possible. However, many Christians are attempting to follow Jesus without a close relationship with the Holy Spirit. As a result, we face a widespread spiritual crisis that is disrupting our connection to God and preventing us from becoming the people he is calling us to be.

What you are about to learn right now is rather obscure. It's a hidden side of an otherwise popular spiritual practice. What you will learn is the Dark Mantras of Subjugation called Vashikaran. I call them dark because they are meant to "subjugate" people and events to your will, or "command" them. That kind of thing was relegated to black magick and witchcraft here in the West. But is there actually such a thing as white and black magick in the Eastern traditions? Or perhaps we, in the West, interpret these things in stark black-and-white terms?

There are hundreds of meditation books out there. Many written by monks, and some written by hippies and spiritual gurus. But how many of these books are written by an ordinary dude? Someone who is just like you: someone who has a day job, whose preferred outfit is jeans and a t-shirt, and enjoys knocking back a few beers on Friday night? Over a decade of practice, meditation has transformed my life, bringing more peace, calm, and clarity into it than I could have ever imagined when I started at the age of 19. And now, I want to share how meditation can do the same for you.

Who does Jesus love? The stranger who looks strange. The driver who cuts us off in traffic. The person online who thinks differently than we do. Loving people is hard. Especially when it involves the difficult people in our lives and those different from us. We say we love others, but really we don’t. Instead of loving, we hurt, belittle, and overlook people. Which is precisely why we need to learn how to love — from Jesus and from one another.

While teaching ethics is universally applauded, how one goes about it is much more difficult and contested than is often recognized. On Teaching and Learning Christian Ethics addresses what it means to teach and learn ethics through a thorough comparison of two ethicists, Henry Sidgwick and F. D. Maurice. Where Sidgwick understood ethics as developing a method for guiding voluntary action to what is right, Maurice maintained that ethics concerns life as a whole, and that requires placing it within a metaphysical and theological realm in which the good is much more definitive than right.

Carol Berry and her husband met and befriended Henri Nouwen when she sat in his course on compassion at Yale Divinity School in the 1970s. At the request of Henri Nouwen's literary estate, she has written this book, which includes unpublished material recorded from Nouwen's lectures. As an art educator, Berry is uniquely situated to develop Nouwen's work on Vincent van Gogh and to add her own research. She fills in background on the much misunderstood spiritual context of van Gogh's work, and reinterprets van Gogh's art in light of Nouwen's lectures.

Witchcraft and witches in the contemporary context had always been misunderstood. Magic has been perceived as extraordinary power and ability ascribed to a few, but the principles and tenets can be taught and practiced. The hidden and the unknown can be understood if knowledge is sought. This book would grant you full-blown access to the concept of witchcraft and magic.

“Follow your dreams” is the self-help message of our day. In our schools and universities, media, and culture, and even in church, we are taught to dream big, work hard, and find true happiness in living our dreams. And so we spend our lives chasing. But as we chase our dreams, we can be met with exhaustion, anxiety, and disappointment. Our circumstances may put our dreams in jeopardy, or even deny them—and we’re heartbroken. Or we achieve them and just want more. Wade Joye offers here a different way. Release your grip on your dreams and trust God with your whole life.

Shalom, friends! Let's start a journey. A journey into the incredible and fascinating world of Biblical Hebrew. What would it be like to speak the language of Adam and Eve, Moses and Joshua, King David, Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Yeshua (Jesus)? Yes Yeshua! When Yeshua told the little girl to get up, he said "Talitha Kum" (Mark 5:41). When he shouts from the stake, he says "Eloi Eloi Sabachthani" (Mark 15:34). That's Hebrew, friends.

McEwen espouses the pleasure to be found in slowing down, both for the ease and comfort of the thing itself (taking time to go for a walk, to write down one's dreams, to read, to talk, to pray), and for its impact on creativity. There are chapters on walking, talking, drawing, dreaming, on "making space", on pausing/praying, on telling stories. World Enough and Time is aimed at the educated general listener, could be used as a creative primer, and will be of interest to creative-writing students and artists in every genre.

Tibetan monks have held anti-aging secrets in the Himalayan Mountains for centuries but now share them with the Western world. In the Western world, there's nothing more mysterious and more confusing to our Western sensibilities and culture than that of the East, especially when it comes to religious practices.
