Download or read book The Spirit-Led Leader written by Timothy C. Geoffrion and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2005-11-14 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our postmodern, experience-oriented culture, people are longing for greater authenticity, integrity, and depth in their pastors and leaders. Board directors, church members, and staff alike are all eagerly seeking leaders who effectively integrate their spirituality and leadership. Pastors and executives, however, often struggle with knowing how to integrate their spiritual values and practices into their leadership and management roles. Designed for pastors, executives, administrators, managers, coordinators, and all who see themselves as leaders and who want to fulfill their God-given purpose, The Spirit-Led Leader addresses the critical fusion of spiritual life and leadership for those who not only want to see results, but who also desire to care just as deeply about who they are and how they lead as they do about what they produce and accomplish. Geoffrion creates a new vision for spiritual leadership as partly an art, partly a result of careful planning, and always a working of the grace of God

Download or read book Soul Seeker written by Perspectus and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2020 International Book Awards’ winning finalist in the spiritualism category, Soul Seeker: Reflections on a Spiritual Journey from Darkness to the Light, shares the author’s reflections on his true story from constant pain and suicidal thoughts to healing, redemption, and spirituality. The author’s reflections, shared through his prose, poetry and photography, begin with him trapped in a deep depression, resulting from a five-year battle with constant pain from an autoimmune disorder. Feeling hopeless and powerless, he hits the “darkest night of his soul” and decides to end his life. But this book is not about suicide, but rather, redemption. It begins with an awakening, visionary experience that leads to his healing and fills him with a permanent sense of well-being and an appreciation for life and living happily in the light. But in the end, he is confronted and tested with the moral dilemma of the shocking results of a half-century-old murder case. It dramatically reinforces the importance of not backsliding into the “dark night of his soul” and the belief “that without darkness, we will never find or know the true value of the light.” This story transcends one man’s journey to spiritual awakening and connection to a Higher Power and includes such things as mindfulness, meditation, spirituality, the soul, purpose and faith, messages of Mother Earth, love, truth, peace, blessings and sorrows, enlightenment, and very much more. The book also serves as an inspirational guide for others seeking their purpose in life and the meaning to existence. With clear language, well-explained concepts, this work is agile, easy to read, and full of wisdom from spiritual and metaphysical thinkers of the past two centuries. Perspectus’ reflections look at: humanity’s connection to the consciousness, energy, power, and matter in the universe; that each of our souls make up an even larger godlike consciousness or soul that is and always will be; the presence of a Higher Power within and outside of each of us; the existence of an eternal source of love, compassion, and redemption; and to never give up hope. Proceeds from the profits of this book will be used to fund a college scholarship program for economically disadvantaged students to shine eternal light on a good man struck down by the darkness of another.

Book Synopsis Learning to Speak God from Scratch by : Jonathan Merritt
Download or read book Learning to Speak God from Scratch written by Jonathan Merritt and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a rapidly changing culture, many of us struggle to talk about faith. We can no longer assume our friends understand words such as grace or gospel. Others, like lost and sin, have become so negative they are nearly conversation-enders. Jonathan Merritt knows this frustration well. After moving from the Bible Belt to New York City, he discovered that the sacred terms he used to describe his spiritual life didn’t connect as they had in the past. This launched him into an exploration of an increasing American reluctance to talk about faith—and the data he uncovered revealed a quiet crisis of affecting millions. In this groundbreaking book, Jonathan revives ancient expressions through incisive cultural commentary, vulnerable personal narratives, and surprising biblical insights. Both provocative and liberating, Learning to Speak God from Scratch will breathe new life into your spiritual conversations and invite you into the embrace of the God who inhabits them.

Documenting our life stories can be intimidating, but Lisa gently and prayerfully leads readers on the journey. She tells stories I related to-as would many others. Her carefully-crafted prayers show her sensitivity to the leading of the Holy Spirit and the delicacy of each person's sacred journey. Daphne Tarango As a busy mom looking for some solid ground in the midst of life's daily details, I love this devotional journal. Lisa's succinct, practical style allowed me to delve quickly into each chapter without feeling overwhelmed, yet challenged me to think deeply about my journey with Christ. Kim McCauley If you are on a path that is leading you to the heart of God then this book will add depth and breadth in your own journey. Lisa opens up about her own quest IN A WAY that is vulnerable, yet has a strength to it that draws you deeper into searching your own heart and soul. Rebecca Hinebaugh Lisa Are Wulf has a knack for words, to put it mildly. Each chapter is a devotional for one day. The chapters are really quite short, but they hold a ton of power. I have been a Christian my entire life, yet I found this devotional able to get me to dig deeper every day. I highly recommend this book! M G Kerri Her writing comes through so authentically, and her stories draw you in and are relatable. It really makes you feel as though you have a companion on this journey, someone who may have stumbled and fallen at some point but who made it through. It is very encouraging to feel that someone else is in this with you. Anna-Liisa Mullis I found this book to be a delight to read. I felt a close connection with the author as she traces the footsteps of her spiritual journey. Many of us have experienced the same difficulties on our own spiritual journey. Jack East
Book Synopsis The Seeker and the Monk by : Scott Sophfronia
Download or read book The Seeker and the Monk written by Scott Sophfronia and published by Broadleaf Books. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if we truly belong to each other? What if we are all walking around shining like the sun? Mystic, monk, and activist Thomas Merton asked those questions in the twentieth century. Writer Sophfronia Scott is asking them today. In The Seeker and the Monk, Scott mines the extensive private journals of one of the most influential contemplative thinkers of the past for guidance on how to live in these fraught times. As a Black woman who is not Catholic, Scott both learns from and pushes back against Merton, holding spirited, and intimate conversations on race, ambition, faith, activism, nature, prayer, friendship, and love. She asks: What is the connection between contemplation and action? Is there ever such a thing as a wrong answer to a spiritual question? How do we care about the brutality in the world while not becoming overwhelmed by it? By engaging in this lively discourse, readers will gain a steady sense of how to dwell more deeply within--and even to love--this despairing and radiant world.

Download or read book God Unbound written by Elaine Heath and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to move beyond the boundaries of what we believe? The apostle Paul led the Galatians through a massive cultural shift in which they had to radically expand their ideas of who God is, who they were, and God's mission for the church. He was able to lead them through this time of great change because of his encounter with the risen Christ on the Damascus road, an experience in which his view of God was completely upended. Today Christianity is undergoing a cultural shift just as challenging as the situation confronting Paul and the Galatians. As many churches decline, congregations and pastors feel uncertain and anxious about how to continue their mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ. Elaine Heath extends an invitation to broaden our view of God by moving beyond the walls of buildings and programs to become a more diverse church than we have ever imagined. While deeply honoring tradition, she calls the church to boldly follow the Holy Spirit's leadership into the future. Ideal for a 6- to 9-week small-group study.
Book Synopsis Prayer Paves the Way by : Marilyn Bodine
Download or read book Prayer Paves the Way written by Marilyn Bodine and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-03-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prayer Paves the Way is the inspiring life story of a spiritual leader and teacher as she embarked on a sacred journey that taught her about the incredible power of the Holy Spirit. While growing up in the Midwest, Marilyn Bodine lived a comfortable life full of activity and affection. Unfortunately, her idyllic environment left her ill-prepared for the monumental challenges that faced her in her early teens-a polio epidemic that left her with a life-long disability and the tumultuous divorce of her parents that elicited gossip and unwanted stares. As these two life-altering events left her angry, frustrated, and hopeless, Marilyn had no idea that these dark moments would be the catalyst that would lead her to God. In an inspirational retelling of her life story and God's miraculous love, Marilyn chronicles her unexpected spiritual journey as she battled her completely useless legs, the fear that they would never get better, her parents' expectations for achievement, and the relentless anger which she wore as a garment for many years. As she learned to surrender her broken heart to God, He began healing her. Her healing brought her into relationship with the Holy Spirit and she became witness to astounding miracles. This book illustrates the power of forgiveness and how the Holy Spirit guides us if we allow Him. Marilyn's experiences have the potential to lead seekers into a deeper relationship with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Book Synopsis My Spiritual Journey by : Watchman Nee
Download or read book My Spiritual Journey written by Watchman Nee and published by Christian Fellowship Publishers. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Holy Scriptures spiritual life is often pictured as a spiritual journey. In reviewing Watchman Nee's life we can easily notice four distinct stages in his spiritual journey. The first stage covers the years from 1920 to 1928: from his regeneration to his basic spiritual training. The second stage comprises the years from 1928 to 1942: the period from the expansion of the work to his withdrawal from ministry. The third stage encompasses the years from 1942 to 1952: that is, from brother Nee's withdrawal from ministry to his captivity by the Chinese Communists. The final stage covers the years from 1952 to 1972: from his arrest and imprisonment to his death. All four stages are clearly reflected in either brother Nee's writings or his spoken ministry.
Book Synopsis Reflections from the Inner Light by : James R. Newby
Download or read book Reflections from the Inner Light written by James R. Newby and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important book of Quaker spirituality, Jim Newby writes about his spiritual journey and the ways he has sought to navigate an increasingly complex world and understand his purpose in it. A lifelong Quaker, Newby seeks to discern the primary ways in which he has grown spiritually, which are divided into the following parts: turning inward, community and relationship, pain and growth, path of a seeker, and affirmations. Each chapter within these parts concludes with queries to encourage readers to reflect upon their own spiritual journeys. Readers may find what Newby writes humorous, or his writing may provoke tears, questions, and challenges to one’s beliefs. Humor and tears, questions and spiritual challenges, are all of God, for to grow in Spirit encompasses all the feelings and emotions through which we pass in this life. In the words of Newby’s late friend and author, Malcolm Muggeridge, “Every happening great and small is a parable whereby God speaks to us, and the art of life is to get the message.” These reflections are Newby's attempt to get the message.
