Book Synopsis Aging with Joy and Impact by : Jerry Black
Download or read book Aging with Joy and Impact written by Jerry Black and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you belong to the baby boomer generation, -and there are seventy-six million of us-this book is targeted at you. Whether you attend church or not, this book is for you. If you grew up fearing an angry God and hell if you sinned, this book is for you. If you have that Catholic, Jewish, or other guilts about life, you will find this book comforting, reassuring, and encouraging. If retirement today leaves you feeling unwanted, unneeded, or without purpose, this book is for you. Belonging to a religion and attending services has been a way for many to check something off their "get-to-heaven" list. Going through the motions might fool our brains but not our hearts. As baby boomers (1946-1964), most of us were brought up in a religious environment that stressed obeying all the rules, or an angry God would send us to hell. As imperfect human beings, this formula did not work well for us. Guilt has flourished for decades in many religions that turned us into mechanical law observers, missing the central facet of religion that God is love and mercy, and Jesus is our model. I have expanded on the two-actually three-great commandments to give you practical applications on how, in the "third half" of your spiritual life, you can find joy in your heart and positively impact others. Enjoy my story as well as the stories of sixteen other seniors who have found joy while making positive impact on others.
Download or read book Blind Spots written by John Domenico and published by John Domenico. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when you never stop questioning what you believe? They say God works in mysterious ways. John Domenico should know. In his 50 plus years, he's embarked on a seeker's journey that has taken him from steadfast Catholicism to born-again Christianity to a unique kind of inclusive spirituality. Blind Spots: The Memoirs of a Baby Boomer on the Rocky Road towards Spiritual Awakening collects his insightful and often humorous thoughts, reflections and critiques on all of them. The result is a deliciously candid and frank book that will appeal to anyone who's ever struggled to understand his or her faith. From early on, it's clear Domenico marched to his own drummer. As a child, he learns to question his family's Catholic faith - and finds plenty of trouble from the nuns and priests in Catholic school. Subsequent to his experimentation in the 1960's and 70's, Domenico settles down and, after initial resistance, discovers Pentecostalism. But eventually he finds cracks in his latest belief system, and he sets out for what will be the most spiritually fulfilling quest of all. Interspersed are compelling asides on his personal life, as well as the politics, major events, personalities and trends that have shaped the last half-century. Throughout it all, Domenico's sensitivity and keen wit masterfully transform an ordinarily timeworn subject, that under his care, is crafted into a thought-provoking, rollicking ride that might just get you questioning your own deeply held beliefs... Reader reviews: "It made me laugh, it made me cry and it made me think so much I don't know what I believe anymore." "I loved it... I think it should be required reading for everyone on the planet." "Domenico tells his story with painful rawness. His courage is rivaled only by his masterful storytelling, revealing much of who we all are in this provocative memoir."
Book Synopsis Spiritual Marketplace by : Wade Clark Roof
Download or read book Spiritual Marketplace written by Wade Clark Roof and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2001-07-02 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In large chain bookstores the "religion" section is gone and in its place is an expanding number of topics including angels, Sufism, journey, recovery, meditation, magic, inspiration, Judaica, astrology, gurus, Bible, prophesy, evangelicalism, Mary, Buddhism, Catholicism, and esoterica. As Wade Clark Roof notes, such changes over the last two decades reflect a shift away from religion as traditionally understood to more diverse and creative approaches. But what does this splintering of the religious perspective say about Americans? Have we become more interested in spiritual concerns or have we become lost among trends? Do we value personal spirituality over traditional religion and no longer see ourselves united in a larger community of faith? Roof first credited this religious diversity to the baby boomers in his bestselling A Generation of Seekers (1993). He returns to interview many of these people, now in mid-life, to reveal a generation with a unique set of spiritual values--a generation that has altered our historic interpretations of religious beliefs, practices, and symbols, and perhaps even our understanding of the sacred itself. The quest culture created by the baby boomers has generated a "marketplace" of new spiritual beliefs and practices and of revisited traditions. As Roof shows, some Americans are exploring faiths and spiritual disciplines for the first time; others are rediscovering their lost traditions; others are drawn to small groups and alternative communities; and still others create their own mix of values and metaphysical beliefs. Spiritual Marketplace charts the emergence of five subcultures: dogmatists, born-again Christians, mainstream believers, metaphysical believers and seekers, and secularists. Drawing on surveys and in-depth interviews for over a decade, Roof reports on the religious and spiritual styles, family patterns, and moral vision and values for each of these subcultures. The result is an innovative, engaging approach to understanding how religious life is being reshaped as we move into the next century.

Download or read book Baby Boomer Lamentations written by Lewis Tagliaferre and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today there are approximately seventy-six million Americans who were born in the years from 1946 to 1965the baby boomers. In their youth they thrived, voting for a number of entitlements based on assumptions of economic growth that no longer applies. Now, as baby boomers continue aging, they must face a number of potentially disheartening realities. From caring for ailing parents to funding their retirement to facing death, many issues weigh too heavily upon the minds of the baby boomer generation to allow for a peaceful, productive second half of life. Whats more, many of the spiritual belief systems passed down for so many generations no longer provide the comfort or support people need in order to face the challenges of the later half of life. The people need something new. In this second edition of Baby Boomer Lamentations, author and self-proclaimed religious philosopher Lewis Tagliaferre explores the concept of Theofatalism and addresses the rising spiritual concerns of the baby boomers, offering a new outlook to help readers make the inevitable transitions through the later years of life.
Book Synopsis Positively 4Th Street by : Joshua Simon MD EdD
Download or read book Positively 4Th Street written by Joshua Simon MD EdD and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical events, ideas, words, and numbers are connected to one another not by chance but in a way that lies below the surface. The number four provides this connection—from the 4/4 time of rock and roll of the Beatles and Bob Dylan, the Vietnam War, Lou Gehrig, all the way to lives of Muhammad, Jesus Christ, the Buddha, and Moses. In Positively 4th Street, author Dr. Joshua Simon offers a spiritual journey, an awakening of the soul. He stimulates you to think about your own experiences and relationships and wonder why you believe whatever it is you believe. Simon offers real solutions to perhaps the two most common problems: thinking that you are not good enough and procrastination. The key to solving these problems is to get better at following the four bases of the Golden Rule: (1) be aware of and sensitive to how your actions affect the feelings of others; (2) don’t do for others what others can do for themselves; (3) say no and set limits with those who act selfishly; and (4) never judge others to be undeserving of your kindness or generosity. Based on his personal and professional experiences and through illustrative stories, Simon presents informative and interesting ideas and advice about how to achieve contentment in life.

Book Synopsis The Second Journey by : Timothy R Athey
Download or read book The Second Journey written by Timothy R Athey and published by . This book was released on 2003-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dr. Tim Athey's work over the past decade, it has become clear to him that the values of the Baby Boomer generation pose unique challenges as they transition through midlife. These challenges are reflected in a growing need for meaning, spirituality, freedom, and change in the personal and professional lives of this generation of people. The turn of the millennium, and the tragedy of September 11, 2001, have caused all Americans to reflect on the things we want our lives to stand for. Because of who we are as a generation, and the values we hold dear, the drive for meaning and direction will reemerge as a compelling force for Baby Boomers facing the challenges of middle age. The Second Journey explores the Baby Boomer generation and how their values affect the personal adjustment, career transitions, and spirituality of this unique group of people. It explores the dilemmas that Boomers face as a generation and identifies the specific steps to resolve these personal dilemmas and establish a new vision for the future. This reawakening to the values of their past as they face the challenges of the future is the Second Journey that this generation now begins.
