Eric Hanson claimed to follow the most remarkable person in history, yet his life was as exciting as sugarless gum. Confronted with a disparity between a promise of abundant life and what he saw in life surrounding him, he left everything behind for a year to travel around the globe through the world's poorest countries.

Refugees, hermits, prostitutes, mobs, secret police, monks, and a motorcycle gang. A dangerous journey introduces us to a fresh side of faith, God, and a fulfilling life.

"My eyes were opening to whole new levels of pain and poverty, darkness and despair, I saw new and altogether beautiful things become real to me. The Bible is full of God's promises of healing and restoration, but those words always seemed plastic and hollow to me. For the first time in my life, I began to see God move and heal-to truly touch people in the midst of unbearable pain. And in that, God's message of restoration suddenly took on a significant, real-life meaning to me.

As I watched Jose's transformation, my heart was ripped from my chest and squeezed until my muted soul could hear God whispering that this-real change, real love, not contrite phrases in an old book-was the heart of God for His people."

"Eric has written a powerful, endearing account of his adventures around the world. But this isn't a book that will leave you feeling helpless. It will give you faith in your own story and hope for living a more meaningful one." -Jeff Goins, author, Wrecked: When a Broken World Slams into Your Comfortable Life

Gunn offers clues to your personalized success through 75 of the time-honored Bible Proverbs that encase the wisdom and practical help that has guided adherents of the world's most renowned religions over the centuries. "In a time such as ours-one of massive change, competing claims to truth, and deep uncertainty-the need for true wisdom becomes urgent. In these reflections from the Book of Proverbs by John R. Gunn, we encounter afresh the power of biblical wisdom, a wisdom our culture desperately needs. Gunn was an articulate and prolific minister whose insightful and faithful sermons and newspaper columns spoke confident and wise truths to the first half of the twentieth century. Now, through this volume, those truths speak powerfully to a new generation." Thomas G. Long, Bandy Professor of Preaching, Candler School of Theology, Emory University, Atlanta GA. John R.

Ocean of Compassion: A Guide to the Life of Universal Loving provides inspirational guidance for the cultivation of the essential virtues necessary to live a life whose purpose is to overcome our mistaken ways of acting and thinking and become a Buddha for the benefit of all. It explains how to cultivate this motivation, called Bodhichitta in Buddhism, and how to shape universal loving into a truly transformational life through the practice of the virtues of generosity, patience, effort, moral discipline, concentration, and wisdom. Expressed in poetic form, the book can help you change your thoughts, words, and actions so as to live a meaningful life of service to others--one in which you truly love your neighbor as yourself.

This book deals about the Islamic Gnosticism and present a comprehensive narrative about the Theoretical Gnosticism (Irfan-e-Nazari). In accordance with Islamic Ideology the most exalted aim of God and his divinely appointed prophets is the training and guidance of human being in their spiritual journey from earthly temporary abode towards the eternal God's Celestial-Kingdom. The main contents of the book as mentioned earlier are the etiquette and instructions of Gnostic journey, ways and manners of servitude, detailed descriptions of deeds and worships that must be performed by a wayfarer, and what sort of behaviors and restrictions they must practice in order to attain the desired results. The book consists of preface and three parts covering the following topics: Self-purification, Human Virtues, What to be?, Heart in Qur'an, Hard-heartedness, Self-refinement, Self-struggle, Egotism, Worldliness, Piety, Characteristics of the Pious, Repentance or Self-Cleansing, Training and Perfection of Self, Faith, Means of Achieving Perfection and God's Nearness, Invocations, Instructions, Obstacles of the Path, Nourishment of Moral Virtues, Righteous Deeds etc. The most prevalent misunderstanding about Islamic Mysticism which must be clarified is that relinquishment of worldly involvement, seclusion, and monasticism are not prerequisites for undertaking a spiritual migration towards God-Almighty; on the contrary, as it would be shown in the later part of this book, Islam demands from its followers that while living among the people a normal social life discharging the individual and collective obligations, they shouldn't be negligent of their own selves and must pay special attention towards their spiritual purification.

Do the laws of nature prohibit the possibility of direct divine intervention? After the crucifixion, did God really present Jesus in some form to disciples and to others? What is the core of Jesus' good news ("gospel"), how does it differ from Paul's good news, and how relevant is it to today's world? A physics teacher gives his personal answers to these questions.

This is the story of one man's burden for the city he lived in and loved.

"Bob Chancia has accurately and passionately communicated the issues facing Detroit as well as the hope for Detroit-the Gospel of Jesus Christ ... because Jesus is the only hope for Detroit and all men. Bob, a native New Yorker, loves Detroit as much as we native Detroiters. I couldn't put this book down A must read " -Diane Denaro Frank, founder and executive director, AngelHouse.org "Here is the account of a miracle touching two great cities. New York's Calvary Baptist Church, by joining with Detroit's Citadel of Faith Covenant Church, has displayed the power and presence of Christ in helping bring a once great city back to vibrant life. Bob Chancia has beautifully and forcefully recounted this miracle that touches two cities." -Rev. James O. Rose, pastor emeritus, Calvary Baptist Church, New York City; Dallas Theological Seminary board of directors for nineteen years.

This book is written for individuals that have felt alienated from God because the church failed. After our son was sexually molested by another member of our church, Richard and I looked to our pastors to help us navigate through trauma and pain that such an event produces. Not only were our pastors ill equipped to direct us toward healing, they were unable to express empathy or support. Their solution was a don't talk rule and just forgive directive. When these failed to satisfy us, the senior pastor stated he would released us to find healing somewhere else. In other words, we were KICKED OUT OF CHURCH. Like so many people that have been wounded by the church or church people, our children were ready to just walk away from the church and the Lord. After all, how do you separate the two.? These were the only pastors our children had ever known. Our pastors had taught us to view the church as family. They had repeatedly reminded us, We were in covenant relationship with the Lord and each other. Yet when life got ugly, they couldn't wait to get rid of us. How do you separate the truth from the lies after such rejection?Richard and I have a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ that precedes our joining that church. We knew that Jesus had not treated us so coldly. We were not willing to walk away from Jesus. Yet we, too, needed to learn to separate Jesus from religious tradition and religious people. This is a recounting for that journey of learning to separate the God that loves us from the church that so often misrepresents Him. May it give you hope.
