Spiritual masters through the ages have devised methods different
than those of science for investigating the great mystery of nature
by, for example, immersing themselves in it, making use of silence,
stillness, and solitude. The scientific and spiritual quests have
been the two great quests of humanity, but somehow a feeling has
developed that science is antagonistic to spirituality. Since the
whole of reality is built up of both matter and consciousness, why
should the quest for the understanding of order in the external
world be antagonistic to the quest for the understanding of order
in the inner world of our consciousness? Science and Spirituality
for a Sustainable World brings together theories, methodologies,
new ideas, experiences, and applications emphasizing the importance
of both spirituality and skill for leadership and sustainable
management, sensitizing leaders and management practitioners toward
the spirituality-skill paradigm, skill-based leadership, and
highlighting the role of spiritual values for environmental
sustainability. Featuring a wide range of topics that focus on the
relationship between spirituality and science such as spiritual
education, management practices, and traditional wisdom, this book
is essential for researchers, academicians, administrators,
managers, professionals, policymakers, and students.
"Gene, you are going to go places you never dreamt of seeing and
you will minister to people you never could imagine you would
reach. Don't be afraid. I will be your seal of approval and, as
long as you yield to My will, I will be with you. " This was the
word given to an unlikely recipient, a self conscious young boy who
was awaiting such a word to bring direction to his future. That
prophetic message would begin a journey which has spanned over
forty years and taken him from storefront churches and concert
halls in the sixties, as part of one of America's first integrated
Gospel groups, to ministry opportunities (to this day) both in the
United States and abroad. Within the pages of this book, Gene,
chronicles that journey in a frank, intimate and inspiring manner.
He shares as an encouragement to his readers, the way God took a
willing ordinary vessel and used it in unimaginable ways.
If you ever wanted to walk through the Gospels with a friend and
discuss how this pertains to your life, here is the perfect
opportunity. Come read about Jesus through the lenses of the
twenty-first century and relate to life experiences along the way.
If you don't know much about the Bible and don't want to ask, this
is the perfect venue for you. There will be some "ah ha" moments,
some "Kleenex" moments, and some funny moments, all drawn within
the boundaries of Christian attitudes. You will find some chapters
that are purely personal and some that are almost commentary in
character, all pointing to themes of nondenominational doctrine to
interest you, inform you, entertain you, and encourage you to go
further on your own path. Dear Readers, "A good look into a woman's
life with its ups and downs, and always followed by Scripture that
gives each experience a higher meaning. All women can relate with
different parts of Jody's memoirs, and combined with insightful
Scriptures, we get a comforting reminder of how we are provided for
by God in Jesus' name." --Priscilla Marsh, Laguna Beach, California
Dear Readers, "I have just begun reading the manuscript for The
Path, and what a blessing it is I have already cried, smiled,
nodded, and laughed. Thank you, Jody, for 25 years of friendship "
--Shirley Newis, Calgary, Alberta
