Frank Charles Laubach was an Evangelical Christian missionary and mystic known as "The Apostle to the Illiterates." One of his most widely influential devotional works was a pamphlet entitled "The Game with Minutes." In it, Laubach urged Christians to attempt keeping God in mind for at least one second of every minute of the day. In this way Christians can attempt the attitude of constant prayer spoken of in the Epistle to the Colossians. The pamphlet extolled the virtues of a life lived with unceasing focus on God.

In a fast-paced world full of distractions, spiritual practice can help us become more centered-more in touch with ourselves and others, more in touch with the world around us, more in touch with God. Sacred Pauses is an introduction to this more centered way of life. The author, a pastor in British Columbia, begins with her own longing for personal renewal. What would it take to feel renewed every day? Instead of waiting for a vacation to smooth out the tensions of life, instead of waiting until the end of the week to shed our weariness, what if we could take time out every day? Live a renewed life every day? Be refreshed by God every day? Sacred Pauses offers simple ways for readers to do just that. Each chapter explores a different spiritual practice-from the classic disciplines of Scripture reading and prayer to other creative approaches such as paying attention, making music, and having fun. With plenty of stories from real life and ideas to try, this book is personal and practical. Its flexible format is appropriate for personal use or in a group, every day or any time.

Living Your Divine Life takes you beyond the monumental "peak experience", beyond priceless "enlightenment", and beyond human thought- to effortless living, nonstop miracles, God- conscious (Christ-in-us) reality, and ceaseless joy as your natural state. Before we learned to walk or feed ourselved with a spoon, we have to acquire these now second nature "information-processing" skills that originate beyond the conscious mind. Equally, if we want to realize the highest state of our being, happiness and prosperity, we can also bring these second nature (effortless, source code) skills into our daily lives. This mathematical source code, which scientists call the laws of nature, is the DNA of life or the software of God's inner structure. Living Your Divine Life shows you how to access that second nature "source code" on a constant basis. The words of Moses Jesysm Muhammad, Eistein, Bohr, Bohm, Wheeler, the Buddha, and many others reinforce this truth. We can observe "effortless" living in the inner workings of our own body and in the movements of electrons, stars and galaxies. By Living Your Divine Life, you can experience peace beyond peace and absolute knowledge at the center of yourself- by unfolding the Godhead within splendor of yourself.

According to Pastor Mark Batterson in this Zondervan ebook, The Circle Maker, “Drawing prayer circles around our dreams isn’t just a mechanism whereby we accomplish great things for God. It’s a mechanism whereby God accomplishes great things in us.” Do you ever sense that there’s far more to prayer, and to God’s vision for your life, than what you’re experiencing? It’s time you learned from the legend of Honi the Circle Maker—a man bold enough to draw a circle in the sand and not budge from inside it until God answered his prayers for his people. What impossibly big dream is God calling you to draw a prayer circle around? Sharing inspiring stories from his own experiences as a circle maker, Mark Batterson will help you uncover your heart’s deepest desires and God-given dreams and unleash them through the kind of audacious prayer that God delights to answer.
