Growing up in the Midwest in the tumultuous 60s and 70s, the
author witnessed a foundational shift in American love and sex.
While traditional families showed us daily trials with characters
on black and white TV sitcoms, the country swirled with the
confusion of rapidly changing social norms. Relationships became
more experimental, and even those rooted in love for God were
caught up in trying to make this new life fit with what God defines
for us in the Bible.
For more than twenty years she hid her own life of substance
abuse, promiscuity, and same-sex relationships from family,
friends, and colleagues. She married, watched her marriage
disintegrate, and then despaired. As she finally found her
relationship with God, she found both the joy and the peace she had
been seeking. In this quest to share love as God intends and to
know family as he designed, she transparently offers her story so
others struggling with similar life decisions may find their
way.
"For a man's ways are in full view of the Lord - He examines all
his paths." (Proverbs 5:21)
One of the foundational Christian beliefs is that God has
spoken. Most of the time in the Bible, God makes statements. At
other times, rather than making statements, God asks questions. And
God's questions provoke serious thought. Many people have questions
they would love to ask God. Many more have questions about God. But
the most important questions are the ones God is asking us. The God
Questions explores these and other questions God asked people in
the Bible:
- Where are you? - Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? -
Why are you so angry? - Where have you come, from and where are you
going? - Why are you so afraid? - Why do you call me "Lord, Lord,"
and do not do what I say? - Who do you say that I am? - When the
Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?
The questions God asked people of ancient times are the same
questions God is asking us today. Discover the questions God is
asking you, and in doing so, find out what God has in mind for your
life.
The story of Jesus is well-known worldwide. But have you ever
wondered if it is the true and complete story of the Savior? Could
there be more to the Son of God?Author Audrey Carr addresses those
questions in The Greatest Story Never Told: An Advanced
Understanding of Christianity. She not only presents the real story
of Jesus, in which he did not die on the cross, but also includes
his unitary gospel of "oneness with God" that traditional
Christianity has missed. Quoting from highly documented, scholarly
works, this story of Jesus incorporates Judaism, Christianity,
Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism. With details and maps of his many
years in India, Carr provides a photograph of his real tomb in
Kashmir. Carr also offers information about meditation techniques
he practiced, for Jesus was not a Christian but a Hindu-Buddha "The
Kingdom of Heaven" was his term for Enlightened
Consciousness.Unlike other scholarly books, The Greatest Story
Never Told is intended for the everyday person. Readers will come
away with a new, meaningful, life-changing understanding of Jesus
and his teachings. Carr seeks to destroy what is false and
resuscitate the real truth, beyond all myths, and she reveals the
connections between major religions. Spiritually uplifting and
challenging, The Greatest Story Never Told is for anyone who is
ready for an advanced understanding of Jesus and all the other
God-men of the ages who have realized their divine identity.
