Where Are You, God? A Metaphysical Interpretation of Job by Nancy Detweiler $ 5.95 |
WHERE ARE YOU, GOD? is a metaphysical interpretation of the biblical Book of Job. As such, there are many surprising revelations into the true meaning of this ancient classic. The hidden wisdom, embedded beneath the surface words, shines forth. Popular interpretations of the Book of Job have portrayed God as unpredictable and willing to gamble with our lives. A metaphysical interpretation unveils the true meaning behind humanity's suffering. We behold a purposeful journey of the soul. Job signifies Everyone. His journey is our journey. By accompanying Job on his Path of Initiation, we gain understanding of our own life experiences. We learn that to see God with our own Eye is far superior to simply hearing about God. An Appendix of astrological information renders your study of the Book of Job more fulfilling by providing a partial explanation of your own soul's journey. |  |

A Voice From Heaven: Could the Study of Glossolalia Benefit Linguistic Theory? by Geoffrey Campbell Jr. $ 4.95 |
This book was written as the culmination (thesis) of a BA course in Linguistics at the University of the West Indies. The study looks at the enigmatic religious linguistic phenomenon "glossolalia" - more commonly known as "speaking in tongues". While acknowledging the value of empirical research, I advocate a rethinking of the scientific "fundamentalism" that characterises much of academia today and which has led to minimal study of glossolalia. The text advances an "epistemologically synthetic" approach, reconciling "religious" or speculative and "secular" or empirical views. Among other sources, the study draws on field-work by two linguists: Maureen Gibbs-De Peza, a Caribbean linguist and practicing glossolalist with the Spiritual Baptist Movement of Trinidad and Tobago; and Michael Motley of the USA, who approaches glossolalia from a purely "secular" position. The work and views of Canadian linguist William J Samarin, probably the best known pioneer in glossolalia research, is also featured prominently. Treating a largely neglected and misrepresented feature of linguistic behavior, the text offers an innovative introduction for the international community of linguists. Also, coming on the heels of the recent appointment of a new Pontif with a reputation for strictness, the book - which is in some ways iconoclastic - could generate a lot of interest among independent thinking religious readers and the more conventionally devout. |

Having Itching Ears by Kirk Glasgow $ 6.95 |
Have you ever wondered why many churches have grown into "mega-church" status, having thousands of members, with unlimited programs and auxiliaries. The sad truth is that while they are growing in numbers, they are not growing spiritually. This book will take you the reader back to New Testament Christianity with it's truth and practical Christian living. You will be able to pinpoint the issues facing the Church today which hinders it from shining as a light in this present society. Issues such as:Finances, and what Jesus said in reference to God's care of the believer.The hostility of the world to the Church, and what Jesus said to expect.What keeps the Church from knowing what God desires.The impact that the desire to be prosperous has on the Church in America today.The Leader's responsibilities in each congregation according to the word of God.The responsibilities of each member of the body of Christ.The reason for the lack of growth in the Church and what it takes to become healthy. |  |

The Plain Truth About God by Allan W Janssen $ 4.95 |
Allan W. Janssen has written a fascinating book about religion and the search for God and meaning throughout human history. From the earliest burial rituals to the main religions of modern times, he examines what we believe and how these beliefs were formed. The book is filled with illustrations and wonderful quotes, such as the ending quote from Arthur C. Clarke: "One of my objections to religion is that it prevents the search for God." And that quote pretty well epitomizes what Mr. Janssen has to say about the matter. The message as I perceive it is that when a religion is written down and a priesthood or other system of leaders is established, then that religion can be used for whatever purpose the leadership decides it should be used for, and true believers will not question it, since to do so would be a sin. And when people do not dare to question, that is where the trouble begins. The first part of the book, Book I, covers a history of human development and how religion began. It includes a very detailed time line that is very helpful in putting everything into perspective. The second part of the book , Book II, has to do with how religious leaders emerged and how religion began to be used for various purposes by these leaders. One part of this section that I found particularly interesting was the section on Memes, those phrases, images, and ideas that become repeated so often that they become a part of our culture and our thoughts. How do these memes relate to religion and spirituality? That's an interesting question, which is explored in The Plain Truth About God in detail. I found this book to be well-researched and filled with intriguing information. I believe that any open-minded person with an interest in human culture and religion will find it useful and enlightening, as well as entertaining to read. This is not a dry textbook but a vital exploration of human beings and our search for a bigger meaning, and what the results of that search have and can lead to. The Plain Truth about God is a very good overview of the subject of humanity and religion, and I highly recommend it to all open-minded readers. |  |
