Sinopse

Treatise Written to a Devout is a highly influential devotional work written by the fourteenth century English mystic Walter Hilton. The author notes that every Christian lives two kinds of life, by which their souls do serve and please God, and procure their own salvation; corporal and spiritual. The corporal is the life of a young Christian who "deals with worldly businesses and affairs." Christians must spend time in the corporal and work to "mortify" all unholy desires in order to graduate to the spiritual life, where they spend much time in fasting and prayer. Finally, Hilton gives advises all Christians to take faith little by little because no one becomes righteous in a day.

    Navigate Through Grief with Biblical Mental Health Tools 
     
     
     
    When you suffer a loss, you enter the realm of "used to be." You used to be married. You used to be employed. You used to be pregnant, secure, healthy, sober, thin. You used to be a son or daughter, a brother or sister, a mother or father. And in that used-to-be space there is deep emptiness, loneliness, and sorrow. It's a place we all dwell for a while. But it's not a place in which we are meant to remain. 
     
     
     
    The path forward includes exploring the unseen elements of grief. With this book, pastor Chuck Elliott and counselor Ashley Elliott light the way to a better future. Sharing biblical advice and proven mental health techniques, they help you learn how to fully feel and face your grief, hold onto your faith, and develop healthy ways to see yourself, your life, and your loved ones. They offer coping strategies for when moving forward seems impossible and guide you toward building new thinking patterns that will result in true healing and growth. 
     
     
     
    Maybe you "used to be" something—but there is a future waiting when you "will be" once more.

    Simplicity is often misunderstood as a lack of sophistication or depth. In truth, simplicity is about intentionality, clarity, and focus. It's not about stripping life down to the barest essentials but about discerning what truly matters and eliminating distractions. The art of simplifying is a practice that allows us to shift our energy from the constant demands of modern life to what brings us true fulfillment. 
    The journey toward simplification begins with the recognition that not everything in our lives needs to be kept or held onto. We live in an age of excess—excess information, excess material possessions, and excess commitments—that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. When we declutter our lives, we free up space for what truly matters: deeper connections, meaningful work, and moments of peace. By embracing simplicity, we allow ourselves to be more present and engaged in each aspect of our daily lives. 
    In simplifying, we are also clearing the mental space necessary to make conscious choices. This process begins with letting go of the unnecessary, which can take many forms. This might involve removing items from your physical space, choosing to disconnect from digital distractions, or reevaluating relationships and commitments that no longer align with your values. The key to simplification is not to eliminate everything but to approach each area of life with discernment, asking whether it serves a purpose or brings joy.
