Empowering the Spirit
Author: Judith Corvin-Blackburn
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780615699110
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
In the midst of great evolutionary change on our planet, there are large numbers of us who share a passion to live from the heart instead of from ego. We understand how crucial personal transformation is to our collective commitment to bring forth a New Earth based on love, cooperation, equality, peace and harmony. We work diligently on our spiritual development and personal healing. Yet many of us are still not expressing our soul's full potential. Empowering the Spirit offers a unique process of self-inquiry to help with this important next step. Brimming with exercises and meditations, this book provides tools to activate deep levels of healing, self-awareness and higher states of consciousness. In addition it is filled with New Earth images, images that strongly evoke the spiritually-evolved world we are co-creating, to help us integrate these concepts more fully in our lives. In Part One, we are led through a deep internal journey where we are offered tools to understand and release fears of stepping into full power, strategies for self-observation and calming the ego, and ways to identify and heal chakra imbalances. We are given an in depth look at outmoded beliefs, both collective and individual, that create blocks to our full soul expression. Next we are guided to identify, understand and activate our pre-birth contracts and to deeply explore the multidimensional nature of our soul. In Part Two, we embark on an outer journey, weaving the activation and healing which occurred in Part One into our connections with others as we delve into the realm of relationships, families and communities and align them with New Earth principles to promote individual and planetary wellbeing. The process set forth in Empowering the Spirit comes from the author's four decades of experience as a transpersonal psychotherapist and spiritual teacher. The exercises and meditations are unique and known for their transformational power. ENDORSEMENTS: NICKI SCULLy, author of Alchemical Healing: A Guide to Spiritual, Physical and Transformational Medicine and Planetary Healing: Spirit Medicine for Global Transformation says: "Empowering the Spirit is chock full of relevant information, insights that inspire, and tools and processes that accomplish their intentions... This book is an invaluable addition to your spiritual library." LINDA STAR WOLF, author of Shamanic Breathwork, Visionary Shamanism and Spirit of the Wolf says: "Empowering the Spirit is 'right on time' for a world in creative chaos in need of great change...This book lives up to its name as a guiding light in a changing world." JOHN HORNEKER, author of Quantum Transformation: A Guide to Becoming a Galactic Human says: "Empowering the Spirit is a book of inspiration... a vision of what life can become when we invite Spirit to infuse every breath of our human experience here on Earth."

God's Empowering Presence
Author: Gordon D. Fee
Publisher: Hendrickson Publishers
ISBN: 9781598564327
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Fee's book is the most comprehensive treatment available of Paul's understanding of the Holy Spirit, a topic that has rarely received sufficient attention in studies of Pauline theology. Fee's method is exemplary: he first analyzes Paul's statements about the Spirit, in each individual letter, and then moves to a synthesis of Paul's general pneumatology. The result is a book that is deeply exegetical, doing justice both to the particularity of Paul's writings and to the fundamental unity of his vision for the Spirit's role in the life of the Christian community. Most importantly, Fee emphasizes insistently that the Holy Spirit must be experienced as a living presence within the church. That message is both faithful to Paul and urgent for the community of faith in our time." and -Richard B. Hays, Professor of New Testament, The Divinity School, Duke University"With the energy and care that is a trademark of his work, Gordon Fee here fills a significant gap in Pauline Studies. Both those who find talk about the Holy Spirit congenial and those who would happily marginalize it will be instructed by this book. Fee makes a genuine contribution as he examines Paul's letters in conversation with both the exegetical tradition of the academy and the pressing needs of the church." and -Beverly R. Gaventa, Professor of New Testament and Exegesis, Princeton Theological Seminary"Fee uniquely combines professional competence as a text critic, an exegete, an author and editor of major commentaries, and a foremost evangelical interpreter of Paul with a lifetime of formation and ministry among the Pentecostals-this century's providential witnesses to the work of the Spirit of God among us. . . . Fee's work offers an enduring encyclopedia of Pauline pneumatological exegesis, easy to consult for next Sunday's sermon, yet substantial enough to take its place near George Ladd's Theology of the New Testament as a must-have, within arm's reach, for serious interpreters of Paul's gospel. . . . Fee's work is the theological crown of a distinguished exegetical career." and -Russell P. Spittler, Senior Professor of New Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary
