The Song of Songs - A Contemplative Guide (Paperback): Graeme Watson The Song of Songs - A Contemplative Guide (Paperback)
Graeme Watson
R390 R341 Discovery Miles 3 410 Save R49 (13%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

From its recorded beginning before Christ, this biblical poem was widely, and in fact exclusively, interpreted both by Jews and Christians as a hymn of God's passionate love for his chosen people. The Song of Songs is however a mysterious book, and the more modern reading of it as a celebration of human erotic love has largely displaced this older interpretation. Here, the author presents a contemporary mystical reading, with reference to some later Christian poetry, including John Donne, George Herbert and R. S. Thomas.

As you read these devotions and Scriptures, be inspired to live with gratitude in your heart and praise on your lips. Meditate on things that produce life and peace.

Empowered - More of Him for All of You (Hardcover): Mary Carver, Grace P. Cho, Anna E. Rendell Empowered - More of Him for All of You (Hardcover)

R357 Discovery Miles 3 570 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Come as you are--for real--and know that God cares about every aspect of your life. The messages we hear about empowerment often run along the lines of "If you believe in yourself, you can do anything!" It's an inspiring slogan in the moment, but its energy fizzles out in the long run. When you're left feeling less than, incapable, or not enough, Jesus sees you as valuable, whole, and good. Knowing who we are in Christ is what truly empowers us. Through the sixty readings in this devotional, you will learn to * stop compartmentalizing your faith and experience God in every part of your being: physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual * reject the lies that you're not worthy by understanding that the way God designed you is exactly who you need to be * look beyond self-help catchphrases and live each day in the truth of God's Word and by the power of the Holy Spirit Through Scripture, stories, prayers, and reflection questions, this devotional will help you cultivate each area of your life to live fully as God created you to be. Written by Mary Carver, Grace P. Cho, and Anna E. Rendell

Sometimes our walk with God seems so difficult. We struggle to find the time to pray, the words to say, and the way to pray them. Are we making prayer more complicated than it needs to be? Charlie Dawes is a pastor and professor who understands both the desires and the challenges of deepening our prayer lives. He has identified simple, biblical prayers that will help you unlock the mystery of conversing with God by paring our words down to their most elemental level. By focusing our prayers, we can open up a new way of relating with God that we have never before experienced. Simple prayer is far from simplistic. Instead, it will help you connect with God at a heart level that cannot be mastered with words alone.

Every commentary on the "Book of Psalms" has had to face the issue that many of these prayers commemorate and celebrate wrath and vengeance. What is needed is not ingenious exegetical rationalization of ancient texts, but the kind of transformation into a work of piety and art that is provided here. Addressed are the needs of a world seeking to counter individual and societal injustices by a global peace born of personal peace through prayer and practice. In short, here is the "Book of Psalms" recast in the light of the continuing revelation and evolution of the authentic religious spirit of the scriptures.

Go to the Ant - Reflections on Biodiversity and the Bible (Paperback): Ghillean T. Prance Go to the Ant - Reflections on Biodiversity and the Bible (Paperback)
Ghillean T. Prance
R354 Discovery Miles 3 540 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Christianity is often accused of asserting humanity's dominion over nature - an attitude that has led to so much environmental destruction - and of viewing it as somehow 'fallen', instead of teaching that we are merely a part of creation and that 'what we do to the earth, we do to ourselves'. In fact, the Bible is teeming with information about plants and biodiversity and different animals and their behaviour, revealing that its writers, like King Solomon and the oracle Agur, had intimate everyday knowledge of the natural world around them and learned from it. Likewise, Jesus was a close observer of nature and was earthed in the here and now, as his parables show. In this book of biblical reflections botanist Ghillean Prance draws richly from his experiences exploring the Amazon and many other regions - from the White Mountains of Turkey to the Hawaiian Archipelago. It is his hope that this book will move Christians to wonder at some of the marvels of nature, and so to treat God's creation with reverence and more respect. God's Word is to be read not only in the Bible, but in God's 'big book'.

Relentless - The Unshakeable Presence of a God Who Never Leaves (Paperback): Michele Cushatt Relentless - The Unshakeable Presence of a God Who Never Leaves (Paperback)
Michele Cushatt
R286 Discovery Miles 2 860 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Where is God when life is filled with so much suffering? How can I be sure of God's presence and affection, even in my pain? Can you believe in God and still wrestle with questions and doubt? These are the questions honestly explored in Relentless. Whether in struggle, illness, death, or failure, the presence of pain causes us to question the presence of God. We pray and watch the sky, crossing our spiritual fingers for hardcore proof of God's nearness. And in the silence, we sense something more sinister: perceived abandonment. But what if we could collect evidence that God hasn't left us? What if we could be absolutely certain of God's presence and affection, strengthening our faith against any assault? Woven throughout Scripture sits a single, extraordinary theme: God is with us. Ours is a God who speaks through burning bushes and leads through pillars of fire, who responds to a broken world by giving himself. Like the Old Testament story of Joshua's altar of twelve stones, Relentless delivers twelve key biblical stories that demonstrate God's unfailing presence. Each chapter offers an invitation to identify a "stone" in your own life as tangible evidence of God's nearness. With the turn of the last page, you will have discovered twelve markers of your own, an altar of memory to carry you through questions and losses, even ones yet to come. For the truth-seekers, those drowning in impossible questions, and those who find themselves swallowed up by the dark, Relentless is an invitation to search for divine presence in our everyday stories. With Michele Cushatt's engaging narrative style, this transformational journey reassures us that God, indeed, is with us.

The Yoga of Jesus - Understanding the Hidden Teachings of the Gospels (Paperback): Paramahansa Yogananda The Yoga of Jesus - Understanding the Hidden Teachings of the Gospels (Paperback)
Paramahansa Yogananda
R409 R343 Discovery Miles 3 430 Save R66 (16%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In this remarkable new book, Paramahansa Yogananda provides a revelatory introduction to the hidden yoga of the Gospels. A selection of material from his highly acclaimed two-volume work, The Second Coming of Christ (Self-Realization Fellowship, 2004), this concise book is designed as both a stand-alone work, and as an introduction to that larger, comprehensive commentary on the Gospels. Yogananda, who is widely known as the father of yoga in the West, explores the role of Jesus as yogi and avatar (divine incarnation). He removes the centuries of dogma and misunderstanding that obscure Christ's original teachings, and shows that Jesus' message is not about sectarian divisiveness, but is a unifying path by which seekers of all faiths and traditions can enter the kingdom of God. Topics include: The "lost years" of Jesus in India / The true meaning of baptism / The correlation between "to be born again" and karma and reincarnation.
