Love Conquers All
Author: Richard Michael Pasichnyk
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781791896744
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
By weaving together scientific studies from psychology, sociology, health and happiness, historical accounts, child and infant research, physiology, medicine and a myriad of other disciplines, a more complete understanding of the human experience emerges. In the process, we learn about those experiences that change us, make us sick or diseased, change the way in which we view the world, and how we perceive love. Certain aspects of missing love create all the troubles that plague us and today's world, because we live in a world that has failed to teach love. This book provides a new approach to love that is sacred, all encompassing, and healing for individuals and for the world as a whole. And the conclusion is that when love is understood, love conquers all of the individual, social and global problems.So be ready to take a journey through the beauty and perils of the human mind and the power of love. The brain is an amazing organ that has incredible abilities, but it is easily influenced by love or its absence. The mind is more than the brain; minds can be joined and communicate without words. The mind is easily influenced by the absence of certain aspects of love, involving touch, positive words, positive gestures, independence and being allowed to express anger in a healthy way. So important are these factors that they show up in studies of mental and physical diseases. They influence the depth and expression of love without us knowing it. Preferences for certain types of foods, colors, love interests, and a myriad of other types of conditioning surface, and make us and the world what it has become. The questions abound: Are minds connected? Is your past effecting your present? Does the unconscious affect your love life? What do dreams tell us about ourselves? Does color affect the way we see things and respond in various circumstances? Why are some people affected by physical disease and disorders, and others mental problems? Why do some people have different sexual orientations or gender identity, and is it a choice or not? Why do people use drugs and use some foods that act like drugs? We are seeing all types of violence increase in today's world - Why? Why do some people become involved in criminal acts? People too often are bothered by others who are not like themselves - Why? What is the underlying reality that we often miss? How do we improve our lives and reach a loving perspective? Most of the time we don't see things as they are but how we are. All of these questions and more are answered using information from studies and research on these subjects. - And not from opinion. What is missing from our lives is an understanding of what all-encompassing love really is and put into practice. "Love Conquers All" will make you, your loved ones, society and the world at large a much better place.

The Case for Jesus
Author: Brant Pitre
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 0770435491
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
“This book will prove to be a most effective weapon… against the debunking and skeptical attitudes toward the Gospels that are so prevalent, not only in academe, but also on the street, among young people who, sadly, are leaving the Churches in droves.” – Robert Barron, author of Catholicism For well over a hundred years now, many scholars have questioned the historical truth of the Gospels, claiming that they were originally anonymous. Others have even argued that Jesus of Nazareth did not think he was God and never claimed to be divine. In The Case for Jesus, Dr. Brant Pitre, the bestselling author of Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist, goes back to the sources—the biblical and historical evidence for Christ—in order to answer several key questions, including: • Were the four Gospels really anonymous? • Are the Gospels folklore? Or are they biographies? • Were the four Gospels written too late to be reliable? • What about the so-called “Lost Gospels,” such as “Q” and the Gospel of Thomas? • Did Jesus claim to be God? • Is Jesus divine in all four Gospels? Or only in John? • Did Jesus fulfill the Jewish prophecies of the Messiah? • Why was Jesus crucified? • What is the evidence for the Resurrection? As The Case for Jesus will show, recent discoveries in New Testament scholarship, as well as neglected evidence from ancient manuscripts and the early church fathers, together have the potential to pull the rug out from under a century of skepticism toward the traditional Gospels. Above all, Pitre shows how the divine claims of Jesus of Nazareth can only be understood by putting them in their ancient Jewish context.
