A blessing is a favor or thing that is conducive to happiness or
welfare. Everybody at one point or another needs a blessing be it
happiness, provision, a sense of purpose, peace, joy,
self-fulfillment, a sense of security, health, good relationships,
favor, self-esteem, assurance in times of uncertainty, spiritual
growth, anointing, sweet fellowship with God; the list is unending.
There are blessings and there are greater blessings. It is God's
will and good pleasure to give you His greater blessings however,
many Christians haven't been able to experience God at this level.
The author through this book gives an in-depth yet easy to read
teaching on how to receive and maintain the greater blessings of
God. Don't dwell at the level of the blessing, go higher to the
realm of the greater blessings. With every chapter packed with deep
truths of the word of God and more than 200 scriptural references,
you will be edified whether you are a novice or experienced with
scriptures.
Winner of the 2022 Nautilus Book Award in Religion / Spirituality
of Western Thought (#24B) Mark Clavier examines a series of
paradoxes that lie at the heart of Christian faith: eternity and
time, silence and words, and wonder and the commonplace. In an
intellectual reflection on an overnight trek on Cadair Idris in
Wales and other wilderness walks, he explores the oft-hidden
connections between faith, society, and nature. Each reflection
ranges widely through history, folklore, poetry, philosophy, and
theology to consider what these paradoxes can teach us about God,
ourselves, and our world. Drawing on the recent upsurge in interest
in the personal experience of landscapes and memory, this book
invites readers to walk with Clavier in the Appalachians, Norway,
Iceland, the Alps, and around Britain as he discovers the ways in
which Christianity is profoundly earthed. By weaving together
nature-writing, memoir, social commentary, and theological
reflection A Pilgrimage of Paradoxes uses a memorable mountain
journey in the ancient landscape of Wales to draw readers into
reflecting about what it means to belong. Please find the study
