God Is Proven

Mindstir Media Publishing — Mon, 17 Jul 2023 23:04:30 +0000

God is proven comes before Emmanuel. Genesis 1:1 promotes the Creator as being separate from Creation. Emmanuel does not mean Creation is with us. Jesus had to prove he is God.

Making it Personal

Mindstir Media Publishing — Thu, 02 Sep 2021 14:41:04 +0000

A book about making prayer an essential part of one's life, specifically prayer for the inflowing of what is known as Divine Love, the very Essence of Divinity, Making It Personal covers a wide range of aspects about prayer--its history, use by Catholic contemplatives and mystics down through the ages, the problem of distractions, as well as methods of purification, what is Divine Love, and the 'soul's longings'. Heavily referenced, with liberal use of quotes from Scripture, early Christians, medieval and modern-day saints and writers--all organized and presented logically with a unique and approachable writing style.

Both a scholarly work and a personal one, Making It Personal offers the reader a bird's-eye view of the author's own prayer space, a discussion about forming one's own 'unseen prayer circle', and the author's personal 'Formal Prayer'. Also included is a glossary of terms and several modern-day testimonies of 'divine intervention'.

If you have ever wondered if contemplative prayer was meant for you or not, you need to read this book.

Consensual Suicide

Mindstir Media Publishing — Mon, 28 Sep 2020 02:05:26 +0000

How did I get here? I mentioned the diets of most of us born in the south that consisted of pork, beef, chicken, turkey, fish and some wild game. These meats were cooked in lard for the most part or smoked. Desert was a mainstay in our home growing up, which consisted of massive amounts of sugar and lard for the crust of pies. Fat back or ham hocks were used in greens, and real butter in macaroni and cheese. This type of diet has little to no nutritional value because of the way they were prepared. With this type of toxic food consumption comes visits to the doctor. Why you ask? Because of the artery clotting meats and unhealthy fats we say we love and won't do without! Because of the excessive weight gain; which has become uncontrollable! Because of the inability to walk a flight of stairs without being completely winded! We make statements such as "My mother cooked this way and lived to be 90, therefore so can I", this is the attitude taken when someone else takes an interest in one's health. Here are some real facts about the consumption of meats and unhealthy fats, that's worth taken a closer look:

I Forgive by Nathaniel B. Copeland

admin — Tue, 08 Jan 2019 04:09:19 +0000

America was changing. Things were happening so fast that you didn't have time to adjust to yesterday's 'new thing.' President JFK was flying to Dallas. The devil continued to do his thing. He was attacking my wife and I with everything that was in his arsenal. Not a lot of heavy stuff. Nothing big and mind-blowing...just small and seemingly insignificant. BUT, I STILL INSIST, IF I WAS FOCUSED AND ON TRACK WITH GOD, 90% OF THE ARGUMENTS WOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED OR LESS HARMFUL. Show me a man who is not praying, like the bible admonished, 'Man should always pray', and I'll show you a man flirting with danger and failure. Sooner or later, the evil one will trick you into falling in a nasty, quiet comfort zone. You're argue-less because you're communicating less! THIS IS NOT GOOD! Men...we have to remember, our moods and words and behavior sets the tone - sets the tone for peace or sets the tone for fear and confusion...

You Are Not Cursed by Gregory King

admin — Mon, 07 Jan 2019 03:39:31 +0000

This book shares the intimate details of the emotional and spiritual challenges Gregory King faced as a young man in the Christian faith. Gregory firmly believes that there are many misperceptions and stereotypes that reinforce an exclusionary Christian belief system that rejects those who are different and regards them as CURSED. He specifically challenges many "so-called" Christians to re-evaluate how they "choose" to treat those with a different sexual orientation within the church congregation. Gregory believes that these flawed beliefs are divisive and create an environment of judgment, condemnation, and self-destruction which completely contradicts the teachings of Jesus. Gregory explains how he overcame these erroneous beliefs and provides tools to equip those who face similar challenges! At one time, Gregory's limited understanding of God's love resulted in his contemplation of suicide. While he obviously never succeeded at taking his own life, God's greater plan for him is evidenced in his powerful, spiritual, and insightful writings. "YOU ARE NOT CURSED" is a compilation of spiritual, philosophical and religious antidotes for those who face persistent discrimination and rejection from family, church, and society! He speaks to the alienated, forgotten, and rejected who only seek love, acceptance, guidance, and spiritual fulfillment. With this book, he gives hope, inspiration, and instruction to those who are often regarded as "cursed" in a society that is dominated by religious dogma and bigotry. Gregory reiterates that it is not Christianity that is on trial here, but rather the understanding, interpretation and application of it in our daily lives! He asserts that Jesus taught us to love our neighbors, but we don't! Gregory believes that it is bigotry, fear, hatred, and ignorance that is destructive and stands in the way of our spiritual growth and prosperity! He firmly believes that the church should not reject and condemn those who are perceived as different, but embrace, love and accept them as unique expressions of God's love!

Learning ABCs with Jesus: A Teaching & Learning Tool

admin — Mon, 07 Jan 2019 02:28:30 +0000

This book is a tool for teaching early literacy skills. I believe that it is never too early to introduce reading skills to children. I would recommend this book to be used in homeschools, daycares, faith-based organizations, and homes. This book would make a great gift for baby showers, birthdays, or as a gift for no particular occasion.

My prayer is that older children and adults will take the time to read this book to children. This is one way to teach spiritual and natural basic skills that will last a life time.

Learning activities include:
• learning the alphabet
• learning words that begin with each letter of the alphabet
• learning to trace the alphabet using your fi nger/pencil
• learning pictures that refl ect the Bible
• learning Biblical scriptures that apply to letters in the alphabet

Everyone Has a Blank Page by Cacilia B Anthony

admin — Sat, 05 Jan 2019 03:27:07 +0000

Hello, my name is Cacilia Bree Anthony. I am writing my story to tell everyone what I have gone through and the hardship that has been done. But at the end of the day I also want to teach other people if I could overcome obstacles, that anybody in the world who put the love out there can do the same. I want to make sure that I also tell many people to get themselves involved with the love of God and to give others benefi t of the doubt. Never judge a book by the cover. You truly have to read the story to understand. I am not writing this book to be 200 pages. I wanted to get to the point from the beginning to the short end so you can understand at the end of the day, all you have is yourself.

Believe in yourself, love yourself, love others, forgive, have faith. Enjoy every moment because tomorrow is not promised.

John 3:16: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. I am walking proof of life.

I believe. I pray and you can do the same.
