"Bev helped me to have almost three more years with my beloved dog Charlie. He had cancer and the vets wanted me to put him down. To the vets' surprise his cancer seemed to dissappear. They could not explain it medically." Gera-Lind Kolarik Chicago, Illinois "Beverly's work is particularly powerful because she brings both an encyclopedic knowledge of healing and extraordinary wisdom to the process. " Audrey Silver " ... Not only have I experienced vastly improved health, but her work and teachings have helped me to vastly improved relationships with my wife, son, and parents. She also was able to help me in business at a crucial time." Henry Levin "Deep healing is but one gift that Beverly imparts. There are others that I can only begin to name now, for the tools that one learns in working with Beverly are applicable for a lifetime." Vicki Landes Licensed Clinical Social Worker Jin Shin Jyutsu Practitioner "Her capabilities, knowledge, traditional teachings and constant contact with the spiritual world is amazing. On every level and all realms Beverly is a true inspiration."

Circuitous Journeys
Author: David J. Leigh
Publisher: Fordham Univ Press
ISBN: 082321995X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
Circuitous Journeys: Modern Spiritual Autobiography provides a close reading and analysis of ten major life stories by twentieth-century leaders and thinkers from a variety of religious and cultural traditions: Mohandas Gandhi, Black Elk, Thomas Merton, Dorothy Day, C. S. Lewis, Malcolm X, Paul Cowan, Rigoberta Menchu, Dan Wakefield, and Nelson Mandela. The book uses approaches from literary criticism, developmental psychology (influenced by Erik Erikson, James Fowler, and Carol Gilligan), and spirituality (influenced by John S. Donne, Emile Griffin, Walter Conn, and Bernard Lonergan). Each text is read in the light of the autobiographical tradition begun by St. Augustine’s Confessions, but with a focus on distinctively modern and post-modern transformations of the self-writing genre. The twentieth-century context of religious alienation, social autonomy, identity crises and politics, and the search for social justice is examined in each text.

Kingdom Journeys
Author: Seth Barnes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780985833404
Category : Discipling (Christianity)
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Do you feel like you've been missing out on the abundant life? Most people do. If you take a look at the life of Jesus, you see that he called his disciples to follow him - on a physical journey, not just a spiritual one. Hundreds of books talk about our faith walk as a journey. But few delve into the subject of how a physical journey can reinvent and revitalize our spiritual journey with God. Kingdom Journeys is about the journeys we all take, presented in a series of "initiation steps" by disciples who are taking serious the call to leave everything and simply "go." This book is an exploration of an ancient spiritual discipline we must recover - if we're going to truly follow Jesus.
