When people talk about or experience paranormal activity, ghosts
are often a component-and enough of a component to be worth
investigating and discussing. The popular theory about ghosts is
that they are spirits of humans who have died, but this isn't
consistent with teachings from the Bible. So, as Christians, we ask
"Who and what are they?" To answer this, God, Ghosts &
Christians looks briefly at various current theories, followed by
an extensive look at ghosts from a Christian point of view,
supported by biblical passages and personal experiences of the
author and others. The author, an ordained minister, will take you
through all aspects of the existence of ghosts in our world-from
the ones that are demons to those that are well meaning and kind.
Don't be fooled by media and nonbelievers-there is a quiet, but
serious, war going on between Christians and ghosts. This book will
affirm your beliefs, show you how to protect yourself and those you
love and encourage you to help quiet the "whispers," and win the
war.
As children, most of us freely express the joy-the music-within us.
Our emotions are close to the surface, and we can bring them forth
at the drop of a hat. But as we become adults, the joy seems to get
buried deeper and deeper. Real life can take the music from our
very being. But does it have to be that way? Is there anything we
can do about it? In The Musical Soul Train: Discover the Songs from
Your Heart, author Philip "PM" Moey shares his knowledge and
experiences of life's spiritual pathways. Moey's fifteen years of
research has taught him that though there are many universal
principles about life, many are fundamentally the same but
approached from different angles. The paths eventually lead to a
single life worth living if you choose to do it well. And to live
well, you cannot allow the music to die within you. Moey includes
his personal musical flavor, but that does not mean it has to be
ours; he reminds us that each of us has a song to be sung and
showcased. The Musical Soul Train will thrill anyone who longs to
tell his or her own story and anyone who is looking for a more
meaningful, inspired life.
