Book Description
Life is a room of tables where we sit and form families, groups and societies that feed materially and spiritually on what is served at them based on the menu that the various groups have ordered ( voted for) from the political and intellectual managers and leaders. I can sit at any table I want, I am free, but at most tables the spiritual food is gone and what is presented is the psychological and emotional reckoning of pride that has denied God and His love. But right next to the brothers and sisters with anxiety and depression who do not yet know what is coming because their superiors promise not to abandon them if they obey and pay their tribute, there are tables of people who are receiving excellent and very substantial food, in abundance and with no end in sight. It is food that does not become stale, that strengthens the soul and gives life; it is the food of true abundance, the spiritual food that points to the only truth, God.

7 Divine Laws to Awaken Your Best Self
Author: Swami Mukundananda
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 9390327091
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
'Just as heat is inherent in fire, so is our desire to become better.' Why are personal growth and life transformation so difficult? Does Creation wish that we fail? Of course not! The purpose behind the Universe's grand design is to make us succeed. Our own unawareness of the laws of the Universe creates the impediment. Just as physical phenomena are regulated by laws, there are spiritual principles governing the journey of life as well. Knowledge of them helps us understand why success comes so easily to some but remains a struggle for others; why some are still putting on their shoes, while others have finished the race. The beauty is that, like the physical laws of nature, the divine principles governing happiness and fulfilment in life are also eternally valid. In this book, Swami Mukundananda explains the 7 divine laws in an easily graspable manner. With knowledge of the Vedic scriptures and witty anecdotes that everyone can relate to, this book will empower you to become the best version of yourself.

Theodicy of Love
Author: John C. Peckham

ISBN: 149341576X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
If God is all powerful and entirely good and loving, why is there so much evil in the world? Based on a close canonical reading of Scripture, this book offers a new approach to the challenge of reconciling the Christian confession of a loving God with the realities of suffering and evil. John Peckham offers a constructive proposal for a theodicy of love that upholds both the sovereignty of God and human freedom, showing that Scripture points toward a framework for thinking about God's love in relation to the world.

The Beauty of the Lord
Author: Jonathan King
Publisher: Lexham Press
ISBN: 1683590597
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
Why is God's beauty often absent from our theology? Rarely do theologians take up the theme of God's beauty—even more rarely do they consider how God's beauty should shape the task of theology itself. But the psalmist says that the heart of the believer's desire is to behold the beauty of the Lord. In The Beauty of the Lord, Jonathan King restores aesthetics as not merely a valid lens for theological reflection, but an essential one. Jesus, our incarnate Redeemer, displays the Triune God's beauty in his actions and person, from creation to final consummation. How can and should theology better reflect this unveiled beauty? The Beauty of the Lord is a renewal of a truly aesthetic theology and a properly theological aesthetics.

Attributes of God
Author: A.W Pink
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1618980629
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
A Transforming Knowledge of the Living God The timeless appeal of this classic book, written by a preacher with a worldwide ministry during the first half of the twentieth century, demonstrates the deep hunger for a saving knowledge of God present in each generation. Arthur Pink sought to give readers not just a theoretical knowledge of God but pointed them toward a personal relationship of yielding to him and living according to his biblical precepts. Pink's book explores attributes such as God's decrees, foreknowledge, sovereignty, holiness, grace, and mercy, among many others, all packaged in a style especially useful for pastors, teachers, and Bible students. Our God who is above all names cannot be found through human searching alone, Pink teaches, but can be known only as he is revealed by the Holy Spirit through his living Word.
