Faith Beyond Belief
Author: Margaret Placentra Johnston
Publisher: Quest Books
ISBN: 0835630455
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
Faith Beyond Belief gives a much-needed voice to the “good” people who have left their church but whose spirituality continues to mature. Johnston uses first-person stories as well as known spiritual authorities in describing various stages of religious growth. Some of these real-life accounts are by nonbelievers; others are by those among the growing numbers of the “spiritual but not religious.” All are thoughtful people with too much integrity to live what they consider a lie. The stories of the nonbelievers-including an ex-Catholic, a former Mormon, and a clandestine Muslim apostate who left his community after the attacks of 9/11-show how complete confidence in human reason can lead away from literal religious interpretation. But, while that step is a necessary one on the spiritual path, it is only intermediate. Her second set of stories are of people at the “mystic” level who can tolerate paradox and see truth and reality as multidimensional. Johnston’s book will help doubters to see things in a new light as well as those who are struggling to clarify their own spiritual vision. It also points beyond the atheist/believer controversy wrecking such divisive havoc in our culture today.

Faith Beyond Reason, a book by A.W. Tozer, is a compilation of sermons on the book of John. It is within this series of sermons that you will find A.W. Tozer addressing the whole truth that all things are possible with God. Tozer takes us in Faith Beyond Reason to a new understanding of our spiritual birth and human conscience and addresses our enlightened spirit, inner knowledge and the resurrection.

Beyond Faith and Reason
Author: Tim Holmes
Publisher: Tim Holmes
ISBN: 055711604X
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
In this second edition of the book that sought to answer the question 'What is identity?', Holmes brings you along a sometimes troubling journey of self analysis. Through provoking style and imagery, the reader is led from a survey of traditional and contemporary philosophy to a psychology of introspection. The primary goal remains a focus on the individual person's identity. Not only does the psychology presented allow for a delineation of the various elements of the personal psyche, but emerging alongside is a cogent epistemology of meaning and spiritual orientation in the world. The depths of existence and the self equally plumbed and artistically rendered in their transcendent ends.
