It's 1970. A dark Wisconsin night. A once-shy farm boy, now in his twenties, stands on a bridge over a river. He's left the farm, studied for the clergy, and done a stint in the air force. He's a proofreader now. He's seen faraway places, but tonight he's in Wisconsin overlooking the dark water. He's about to see the face of God, to become a God-Realized man. From this momentous turning point, Harold Klemp's life would never be the same. His incredible experience that night was simply a prelude to a time of testing, humbling, cleansing, yet blessed experience with the Light and Sound of God. He would emerge as the spiritual leader and modern-day prophet of Eckankar. This is his spiritual autobiography. "This book," he says, "is about God-Realization and the myths that surround the highest state of spiritual realization known to mankind. The first and greatest illusion is that once God-Realization is attained, the battle for higher consciousness is forever won. This oversimplifies things. . . . "The hard part came after God-Realization. Now I had to return to the problems of life and confront them. The specter of God's haunting love was always with me. . . . It carried me beyond the pleasant cooing of belief and faith, thrusting me into a brilliant world of light shorn of all illusion." If a shy Wisconsin farm boy can master his spiritual destiny, why can't we? According to Gallup, 82% of those polled in America alone want to experience spiritual growth. Believe it or not, it is your destiny to discover your godlike nature, your spiritual greatness. "Tucked away in the hidden places of this book are clues as to how you too may reach the glories of God," says Klemp. "Now come with me on my journey." Eckankar is a modern-day spiritual teaching with ancient roots founded in 1965 by Paul Twitchell. Harold Klemp is the current spiritual leader of Eckankar since 1981.

Rick Warren is arguably the most influential man in American religion today. Megachurch pastor, friend of world leaders, and trend-setting spiritual entrepreneur, he is widely recognized as the new public face of evangelical Christianity in America. No other modern churchman has matched his success as a leader and motivator of Christians. His book, The Purpose-Driven Life, is the bestselling nonfiction hardcover of all time, with more than 25 million copies sold. At a time when evangelicalism stands at a political and cultural crossroads, his stature continues to rise. But who is Rick Warren? What can be learned from the story of the man behind the message? And what does his life say about the state of Christianity today? Prophet of Purpose: The Life of Rick Warren traces the road Warren has traveled, the influences in his life, his trials and temptations, and the opposition he has encountered along the way. Honest, thorough, and insightful, it explores his spiritual coming of age during the turbulent 1960s, his principled determination to sit out the divisive battles between fundamentalists and moderates in the Southern Baptist Convention in the late 1970s, and his audacious endeavor in the 1980s to build a “church for people who hate church” in the suburbs of Los Angeles. From a handful of worshippers meeting in a tiny apartment, he grew a vibrant congregation of over 22,000 and a global network of pastors who follow his strategies for building churches and transforming lives. In this unofficial biography, Jeffery L. Sheler, who had unfettered access to Warren and those closest to him, presents an intimate portrait of Warren as a man of faith and vision but also of flesh and blood and human foibles–a pastor, communicator, philanthropist, and family man who is driven by a sense of divine purpose to complete the course his God has set before him. Prophet of Purpose brings Warren and his mission to life and provides a provocative glimpse into the potential future of Christianity in America.

A Prophet's Memoir Summary Narrated in twelve enchanting and startling chapters, Prophetess Sandra Kaye Blue revealed a moving journey through life from human imperfection to God's perfection. She exhibited a magnificent aura of incredible personality depicted in her unswerving pursuit of excellence even in the face of danger and death. She explained her trials and unfriendly catalogs of harrowing experiences in the form of sexual abuse, drug addiction, and sexual perversion as the antics of Satan to defraud her of divine purpose in God even before the beginning of time. Prophetess Blue styled her calling into the prophetic as the act of divine election to influence and serve humanity by revealing the mind of God in seasons to warn, inform, deliver, and fulfill God's purposes on earth. She expounded that ministry leadership as a matter of urgency should prioritize the discovery of future generations of church leaders for the building of God's kingdom. Her journey commenced in chapter one; a prophet in my mother's womb. Prophetess Blue chronicled an intense revelation of her childhood experiences beginning with the demise of her beloved mother at a tender age. With her tender mind swarmed with the unanswered myriad of questions as to why her mother had to die she painted a grim picture of her first experience of the harsh realities of our contemporary society welcoming her into a life of sexual abuse and despair. Neglected by her father for the reason best known to him and her mother, she went to describe her brief experience with her father and other siblings. Without being particularly welcomed and accepted she saw within seconds of meeting her stepmother that she was a rejected child. Thus, she was ushered forcefully into the unpleasant journey in search of whom she was and where she belonged on both sides of her family. Describing further her early and first encounter with her father, stepmother, and other siblings she continued her traumatic childhood experience in chapter two: years of abuse. As she narrates her distressing experience of growing up living with her cousin without a father and mother, she underscored the emptiness she felt and the vacuum created in her by the absence of both her father and without any fault of hers her mother because death stole her. Rejected and left to fend for herself she became dysfunctional and despairing. This was the begging of her wild chase for acceptance and love which as would be expected culminated in the street life her best companion being drug, sex, and crime as her intimate bedmates. In the midst of her drudgery and hopelessness, God's mercy and love located her even when she was unfit for the kingdom. Irrespective of her coveted role as Crack addict, and patron to drugs God's searching voice came calling in chapter five when she experienced her first overwhelming attraction to the supernatural. This continued in chapter six, with the grasp and power of the Almighty God becoming evident more and more. Now, it was time to quit the street. This heralded chapter seven her divine encounter with salvation and the birth of another life. This new birth experience transformed her world but somehow it was short-lived when she unintentionally found herself back on the street albeit not with the usual satisfaction and joy. In a confused state, hoarded with questions and the feeling of disappointment not fitting into the old mold, like the prodigal son she retraced her steps back to God. This climaxed in her new found place of worship and the revelation of her prophetic ministry. Prophetess Blue revealed her calling and discussed the discipline of consistent prayer life. By divine intuition and inspiration she challenged the politics of the modern church which she termed the "tradition of men" Accordingly, she stepped out in obedience into her prophetic ministry. This step saw God drawing her closer, ushering her into a hundred-day threshing flo...
