Book Description
The experiential and transformational teachings brought to each human being by Jesus of Nazareth transcending religious beliefs, creeds, cultures, and time. The essence of the teachings of Jesus called the Anointed One is the awakening of the spiritual depths of human beings in a way that utterly transforms their understanding of themselves and of their relationship with life. Our world desperately needs such a unifying vision and a sense of common ground among people and cultures. It is the mystic first and foremost who reveals the spiritual home that we all share and the wondrous purpose of our presence in the universe. One of the highly respected personalities in the religious world of our time, the Benedictine Monk Bede Griffith, made this radical and prophetic statement late in his life: "If Christianity cannot recover its mystical tradition and teach it, it should just fold up and go out of business." The Anointed One put it another way: "Why do you call Me, Lord, Lord and do not practice what I tell you?" (Luke 6:46)

Book Description
Christianity Today 2023 Book Award Finalist (Bible & Devotional) Sheltering Mercy helps us rediscover the rich treasures of the Psalms--through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns--as a guide to personal devotion and meditation. The church has always used the Psalms as part of its prayer life, and they have inspired countless other prayers. This book contains 75 prayers drawn from Psalms 1-75, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms. While each prayer corresponds to a particular psalm and touches on its themes and ideas, it is not a new translation of the Psalms or an attempt to modernize or contextualize their content or language. Rather, the prayers are responses to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life. This artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and beautiful hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.

Book Description
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time The Gnostic Gospels is a landmark study of the long-buried roots of Christianity, a work of luminous scholarship and wide popular appeal. First published in 1979 to critical acclaim, winning the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award, The Gnostic Gospels has continued to grow in reputation and influence over the past two decades. It is now widely recognized as one of the most brilliant and accessible histories of early Christian spirituality published in our time. In 1945 an Egyptian peasant unearthed what proved to be the Gnostic Gospels, thirteen papyrus volumes that expounded a radically different view of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ from that of the New Testament. In this spellbinding book, renowned religious scholar Elaine Pagels elucidates the mysteries and meanings of these sacred texts both in the world of the first Christians and in the context of Christianity today. With insight and passion, Pagels explores a remarkable range of recently discovered gospels, including the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, to show how a variety of “Christianities” emerged at a time of extraordinary spiritual upheaval. Some Christians questioned the need for clergy and church doctrine, and taught that the divine could be discovered through spiritual search. Many others, like Buddhists and Hindus, sought enlightenment—and access to God—within. Such explorations raised questions: Was the resurrection to be understood symbolically and not literally? Was God to be envisioned only in masculine form, or feminine as well? Was martyrdom a necessary—or worthy—expression of faith? These early Christians dared to ask questions that orthodox Christians later suppressed—and their explorations led to profoundly different visions of Jesus and his message. Brilliant, provocative, and stunning in its implications, The Gnostic Gospels is a radical, eloquent reconsideration of the origins of the Christian faith.

Book Description
There are two lost gospels, one found almost 60 years ago, and the other found less than twenty years ago, that we now know contain the oldest, largest and most accurate collections of the teachings of Jesus. These are The Gospel of Thomas and a gospel called Q1. These teachings amaze some people and disturb others because these documents were written before the early Christian church rewrote Jesus’ words to give us the New Testament gospels. The Original Teachings of Jesus offers a unique translation of these two gospels. The sayings have been organized to make sense and flow as they would from the mouth of Jesus. Additionally, this translation recovers root meanings and idioms from Jesus’ native Aramaic to bring the subtleties and flavor of his own culture to print. For example, God is called “The One.” Heaven is called the “World of Light.” Hell is never mentioned. The original teachings of Jesus are deeply spiritual, but they are not religious. Salvation is offered, but it is accomplished by spiritual enlightenment and has nothing to do with sin. These teachings offer a clear set of instructions for achieving spiritual enlightenment and promise that seeking and practicing bring one to a personal experience of God and of The World of Light. This is the only book to date that combines these two lost gospels in a way that uncovers the spiritual teachings of this mystic Aramaic teacher, Jesus. There are 134 teachings, accompanied by an explanation of what they meant in the context of Jesus’ time and culture and a commentary on what the teachings mean in our own time. Last, but not least, the Introduction tells the compelling stories behind both lost gospels. Chapters include: Spiritual Awareness, How To Live, Jesus’ Students, God, Jesus, Wisdom and The Judeans.

Book Description
Utilize faith to connect to God, lose yourself in God, and gain a sense of living in God... How can you use God's point of view to understand biblical context? How has God imparted knowledge from a source beyond the brain to accomplish his purposes? How can the brain be 'reprogrammed' to harmonize mind and spirit? How can you use new 'parables' to communicate 'old' truths? These are the intriguing questions that have been on the mind of Wellington Watts. Now, in his book Cosmic Connection, Watts outlines the answers to these quandaries and incites readers to find a unique understanding of God and what he wants out of human beings. Using solid biblical references, innovative philosophies, and covering a myriad of what are often confusing and cumbersome issues faced on a daily basis by Christian intellectuals, Watts will inspire both spiritually and psychologically as he challenges everyone to find his or her own Cosmic Connection and become more effective in everyday life.
