Book Description
The biblical word “heart” has been to some degree a mystery in the body of Christ. Did you know that “Jesus” is in the Bible 983 times, “Father” (God) 979 times, and “heart” 830 times? This clearly signifies that the biblical word “heart” is important to God. Humankind has two types of hearts, a physical heart and a spiritual heart. In the Bible, “heart” refers to our spiritual hearts, not the physical heart. Though most people in the Body of Christ touch their chests when referring to the biblical word “heart”, the spiritual heart is not in the chest. The spiritual heart is the soul (mind, will, emotions). Physically, it is located inside of your head. The purpose of this book is to gain a better understanding of our spiritual hearts. Our ultimate goal is to demystify the biblical word “heart.” This book will provide comprehensive knowledge by God inspired spiritual visual aids and revelation of scripture. As we all know, there is plenty of information on the physical heart but very little information on the spiritual heart. For instance, we know that your physical heart is located inside your chest and pumps blood throughout your body. We also know that exercising and eating right will make your physical heart healthy. Where is your spiritual heart located? What is the purpose of your spiritual heart? What makes your spiritual heart healthy? This book will provide answers to these questions and many other inquiries you may have concerning your “Spiritual Heart”.

Minding the Heart
Author: Saucy, Robert
Publisher: Kregel Publications
ISBN: 0825479908
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
The heart is the most important biblical term for the person's nature and actions. Indeed, the heart is the control center of life. It is the very place where God works to change us. But how does this growth take place? How are Christians to discover the steadfast spirit of David's psalm? In Minding the Heart, Robert L. Saucy offers insightful instruction on what spiritual transformation is and how to achieve it. He shows how renewing one's mind through meditation, action, and community can begin the process of change, but ultimately the final change—the change that brings abundant life—can only come through a vital relationship with God. "The renewing of the heart is an inescapable human need," writes Saucy, "but the solution lies only within the realm of the divine." Drawing from inspiring Bible passages as well as selected scientific studies, Saucy demonstrates how to make lasting change so Christians can finally achieve the joys of becoming more like Christ.

God Save the Queen
Author: Ian Bradley
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1441178953
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
At a time of renewed interest in the monarchy (stimulated by the marriage of Prince William of Wales and the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II), the institution is analyzed and dissected from almost every point of view apart from the sacred -- which arguably stands at its heart and is its ultimate raison d'etre. Commentators assess the constitutional and philanthropic aspects of monarchy and its tourist potential; gossip magazines report on the Royal Family as a soap opera. This lack of attention is in marked contrast to the sacred origins of monarchy and the manifest importance of religious belief in the life of the present monarch. Ian Bradley traces the religious dimension of monarchy and argues for its importance as a spiritual force in British life, as well as exploring what this might mean in a society that is both multi-faith and increasingly secular.
