Sinopsis

Recapture wonder and learn to live by the healing shapes and rhythms of stillness 
 
In a restless and distracted world, the cultivation of quiet often feels abstract and impossible. But quiet is, and always has been, essential to spiritual life, the only way we can turn from the frenzy toward the peace for which we were created.  
 
Reclaiming Quiet is an invitation to discover the profound, daily joy of resisting patterns of anxiety and hurry and cultivating a life of holy attention instead. With practical strategies to address our use of screens or fear of silence and compassionate ideas to nourish stillness, listening, and rest, this book explores  
 
● what it means to become a person who listens each day for God's voice before all others 
● how to reclaim wonder in prayer 
● how to cultivate an interior life 
 
Quiet is not for specialists or the ultra-disciplined. It's not limited to those who have great swathes of time. Quiet is our inner native land, the place to which we turn to find God already waiting, calling us beloved, and drawing us homeward into a life of holy and joyous attention.

    Even after Christendom, our culture is fertile ground for gospel renewal. We need apologetics for the whole church tailored to this moment. 
    Since the fall of Christendom, Christians in Western countries can no longer assume their neighbors share basic familiarity with the Bible or even a sense for God. We now face a strange mixture of apathy and antagonism toward the gospel. Some people view Christianity as yesterday's news. For others, it's the source of today's problems. Lately, though, more and more are open to the idea that Christianity may be tomorrow's hope. 
    Amid these confusing and conflicting shifts, we need apologetics for the whole church and not just for those who enjoy arguing. Cultural apologetics can help uncover opportunities to proclaim the gospel as the only way to fulfill longings for truth, beauty, and goodness. Churches that embrace this approach can be strengthened and renewed as they demonstrate an appealing and convicting way of life that stands out in the world. 
    In The Gospel after Christendom, scholars and practitioners from the Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics define cultural apologetics, explain its biblical and historical grounding, and demonstrate its importance for the church today. Their diverse viewpoints, united in the gospel, offer a balanced approach that can guide Christians to share the Good News with their neighbors in this challenging but exciting time.

    In a world tense with anger and division, how can we preserve our sense of well-being and inject a little more kindness into our daily interactions? 
     
     
     
    Pastor Jill J. Duffield finds an answer in the apostle Paul's guidance in Philippians 4:8: "Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." 
     
     
     
    Thinking about, looking for, appreciating these eight things can reorient our hearts and minds in ways that nurture compassion for ourselves, those in need, and those with whom we are inclined to disagree. Duffield leads the way with stories and insights that will transform your outlook on the world—and maybe even the world itself. 
     
     
     
    With eight chapters of six reflections each, Appreciate These Things can serve as a daily devotional, an eight-week group study, or an accessible, inspirational individual listen.

  • The Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century - An Imagination The Occult Significance of the 12 Years from 1933 to 1945 in the Light of Spiritual Science - cover

    On the eve of the 33rd anniversary of its publication, The Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century remains an exceptional work. On the one hand, the author offers a pioneering, first-hand testimony of Rudolf Steiner's prophetic statements regarding the 'new Christ Revelation'. On the other, he presents his own findings, based on Imaginative consciousness, of 'the Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century'. Ben-Aharon gives a unique account of events that took place in the spiritual world during the fateful twelve-year period from 1933 to 1945 – encompassing the rise to power of National Socialism and culminating in the end of the Second World War.
    Through coming to a fully conscious understanding of this 'Spiritual Event', we can gain the courage needed to renew and enliven the spiritual science of anthroposophy as 'the universal human language of our age'. In addition to his description of the 'Century's Event', the author discusses 'The New Soul Faculties', 'The Relation Between Supersensible and Physical Events', 'The Rebirth of Anthroposophy since the End of the Twentieth Century' and 'Anthroposophy as the Living Language of the Present'. His words have a particular significance for the grouping of souls which the spiritual scientist Rudolf Steiner referred to as the 'Michael School'.
    This third edition features a thoroughly revised and extended Preface, Introduction and auxiliary chapters – updated out of the signs of the present time.

    What if the greatest blessing we could ever receive is the manifested presence and power of God?
    
    After reading this book, I will understand the importance of developing an intimate and personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. As I go deeper with the Lord, I will experience His love and understand His power and authority in an entirely new way.
    
    There is a famine in the church at large; it is a lack of fresh oil in our personal fellowship with the Holy Spirit. The Western mindset is built upon the principles of intellect, philosophy, and reason. These principles are not inherently wrong, but they are a far cry from the passionate, biblical approach to engaging with God. The knowledge of God is so much more than intellect and reason. It is more than a mental understanding; rather, it is a deep, intimate, spiritual knowing and life-union with Christ.
    
    The spiritual affects the natural, and in Fresh Oil, Chris Garcia–a pastor and popular social media minister with over 100,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel–helps believers develop a greater hunger for God's presence and Word and increase their sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.
    
    This book will help readers to…
    Stop being led by their flesh and an unrenewed thought life.
    
    Experience a more exciting prayer life and enter a greater level of worship and victory.
    
    Understand their positional reality and the victory that has been offered to them through Christ.
    
    
    Teaching simple keys to help believers experience a greater awareness of God's presence, this book will help stir readers into deeper communion with the Holy Spirit, producing fresh oil in their lives.
