The Law of Attraction: Is It for Christians?: Uncovering Kingdom Secrets Behind The Secret - A Thorough, Biblical, and Fair Examination of New ... by Sebastien Richard (Thriving on Purpose) (12 Reviews)    Price verified 8 minutes ago

Is The Law of Attraction Compatible with the Christian Faith and the Bible? Does it Even Work? Are Its Proponents Deceived? When the book The Secret came out in 2006, it took the world by storm. As a result, the Law of Attraction became a household term in media and pop-culture circles. In the wake of this popular movement, some Christians have vehemently opposed the New Age (and/or New Thought) behind this philosophy. Others have embraced so much of it that they have either left the faith, or become some New Age-flavored Christ followers... and lost their salt in the process. Noticing these trends, author and Bible teacher Sebastien Richard decided to investigate, as objectively and scripturally as possible, the validity of the Law of Attraction's claims. The Law of Attraction: Is It for Christians? is the result of this investigation. Find out the scientific, legal, and scriptural secrets behind the Law of Attraction by considering: • Is the Law of Attraction good (divine), bad (demonic), or neutral? • Just how powerful are our words? • Is it really a law? And what does this entail? • How much authority do believers really have? If you're a sincere believer and seeker, The Law of Attraction: Is It for Christians? will answer, through the lens of Scripture, your deepest questions about 'The Secret'.

What secrets do the Black Woods hold?

Lessons from Famous Philosophers: A Crash Course on the Ideas of the Greatest Philosophers of All Time ~ (An Intro to Philosophy's Best Philosophers) by Nicolas Peterson (22 Reviews)    Price verified 38 minutes ago

If you're looking for an easy-to-follow introduction of some of the greatest philosophers of all time (and their revolutionary ideas that changed the world), then this book is for you! Read on your PC, Mac, smart phone, tablet, or Kindle device. Philosophy comes from the Greek words philo (love of) and sophia (wisdom). It was -- and still is -- an attempt to understand as much as one can about the world, a holistic approach toward knowledge. It was only during the industrial revolution that we began to put scientists, researchers, and mechanics on one side, and philosophers on the other. In so doing, we placed a great divide between information associated with science and math, and the knowledge associated with experience, morality, conduct, and the spiritual world. We therefore have an unflattering view of today's philosophers, as many are considered religious nuts or morality freaks. But this is unfair. Since Philosophy is an attempt to create a rational understanding of the world, it still has immense practical value -- especially since there's still a lot we don't know. The greatest philosophers were those who challenged existing norms, and in so doing, changed the world. This book was written to help you get to know some of the great Greek philosophers who made the Western World what it is today. We'll begin with pre-Socratic philosophy, then move on to classical philosophy which continues to shape our modern world. This book will also explain how some of the great philosophers thought, so you can better understand the philosophical mindset and apply it in your own life. Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn... • Pre-Socratic Philosophy • Thales of Miletus (624-546 BC) • Pythagoras of Samos (582-496 BC) • Heraclitus of Ephesus (535-475 BC) • Classical Philosophy, the Socratic Period • Socrates (470/469-399 BC) • Atomism and The Cynics • Plato (428-348 BC) • Aristotle (384-322 BC) • Pyrrho of Elis (360-270 BC) • ...

Part-time realtor and full-time pastor's wife, Naidenne Davidson, is too busy coping with life in a small town church parsonage to think about her beauty, let alone imagine what sort of jealousy, envy or desire she is inspiring in the hearts of those around her.

Can A Woman Preach?: By What Authority by Joseph Brice (BCMG) (3 Reviews)    Price verified 6 minutes ago

When I was a drug addict, God saved my life through a woman pastor! I was so high and intoxicated, almost out of my mind. Somehow, God got my attention early one Easter morning, telling me to go to church because "Today was the day of salvation." I was so high and intoxicated that all I wanted was peace and sleep, and I couldn't get either. I had not been to sleep in three days. I felt a poke to my shoulder and heard a voice say, "Get up and go to church... Today is the day of salvation." I thought I was going crazy. I showered and dressed to go to church, but my question was, where? I had not attended a church service in over ten years. I don't want to go, but I am desperate and scared. I have never felt this way before; I think I am about to die, and I don't want to die like this. How disgraceful it would be for my family and friends to hear I had overdosed and died from drugs and alcohol. I think going to my mother's church is out of the question. But then I listen to this voice again, "Go to your mother's church!" When I arrived, an usher was greeting me at the door, and to my surprise, it was a guy known in our old neighborhood for doing drugs. I looked at him in surprise; he looked like a new man, and I asked, what are you doing here? He said, "I have been attending this church for over three years and have been clean of alcohol and drugs; what are you doing here? I didn't give him an answer, but somehow, seeing him made me feel a little at ease. He asked me where I would like to be seated. As I entered the sanctuary part of the church, the pastor was already preaching but closed her Bible. She said, God just changed my message. He said, "TODAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION!" This is the third time I have heard these words in one morning, and they are getting my attention. This pastor started preaching about the love of God through Jesus and how he came to this world to save sinners. How his love for us, the shedding of his blood, the price he paid, and passion ...

The Unknown Kingdom, Revelations of Shambhala, The Himalayan Journals by M.G. Hawking (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Discover The Unknown Kingdom. You are invited to take an unforgettable journey into a fabled world to explore ancient knowledge virtually unknown to the modern world. Sweeping in an immense arc across South Asia is the Great Himalayan Range, an uninterrupted 1,500 mile crescent of mountains with over 110 peaks rising to elevations of 25,000 feet or more. Extending from Kashmir's 26,600 foot Naga Parbat through Tibet's 25,445 foot Namcha Barwa, the immense wilderness of the Himalaya cradles the most isolated areas of Earth's landmass. Yawning gorges as deep as 16,000 feet and ice peaks towering nearly six miles high shelter remote, lushly forested valleys. For thousands of years, the largely inaccessible and unexplored inner portion of this vast frozen fortress has been known in esoteric literature as the Great White Island, and has inspired countless stories and legends that it conceals a kingdom of great masters possessed of transcendent wisdom and power. Many years ago, on an extended trek into the remote inner range of the Himalayas, explorer M.G. Hawking chanced on a small valley deep in the rugged wilderness. Surrounded by massive peaks, he encountered a beautiful village, a mysterious realm referred to by its residents as Siddhalaya. Siddha, in Sanskrit, denotes a high adept or master; alaya means the abode of -- for Siddhalaya is said to be the 'Kingdom of the Masters.' From Hawking's journal of that day: "The village is small and ancient, yet very beautiful. Seemingly overhead, rising nearly six miles into the sky, towers the great Himalayan massif of Dhaulagiri. Vast snowfields roll upward from evergreen forest to immense blue-white glaciers and ragged cliffs of ancient ice. Far above, magic colors appear, shimmer and disappear, silent reflections in clouds that sail across iced granite on high, swift journeys. Nestled in a valley below the snowfields, in dense emerald-green forest by a pure azure lake, the village spreads its river-stone structures. ...

Bewitched, Bothered, and Beheaded, book 10 of the Alvarez Family Murder Mysteries by Heather Haven (33 Reviews)    Price verified 6 minutes ago

HEADS-UP! TWISTY PLOTTING, SLY WIT, AND OVER-THE TOP HUMOR AHEAD! In this wacky and hilarious whodunit, private eye Lee Alvarez slips into the role of magician's assistant for a fundraiser and finds herself dead center in a beyond-grisly murder. Despite meticulous planning and rehearsal, the magician's guillotine trick goes as wrong as it possibly can when Lee pulls the cord and shimmies to divert attention from the horrifying fall of the blade. With her back to the guillotine, she's the last to know of the real-life beheading. But the first to know she's the number one suspect. In a humiliating turn of events, she's summarily arrested and booked for the murder. An easy situation to lose your own head in, but with three days before her arraignment, the entire Alvarez family investigative firm swings into action to save their star. Luckily for the reader, the unfortunate events are just beginning. The wealthy magician's beneficiaries immediately begin coming to various sticky ends, including shootings, drownings, kidnappings, and oncoming SUVs. It seems he's left a chunk of his fortune to a tontine, to be divided among his two ex-wives, current cheating wife, twin nephews, and devoted butler -- with the last survivor enjoying the whole income. Someone evidently can't keep a cool head on their shoulders. Fans of PI stories, cozy mysteries, and women sleuths will lose their own heads over Lee Alvarez and her adorable (and vexing) family of investigators! Lee's sharp and funny like her fellow female protagonists Kinsey Millhone (Sue Grafton) and Stephanie Plum (Janet Evanovich), but she cleans up better - say, Nora to her dapper husband's Nick. And the rest of the large, loving, interfering, and resourceful Alvarez family will delight lovers of Lisa Lutz's family series, The Spellman Files.
