Journey To Wholeness Reflections for Transforming Your Life is an inspirational book designed to inspire conscious living and serve as a catalyst for transformation. It reflects on the human condition and our yearning for inner harmony and fulfillment as we struggle to return to our innate state of wholeness. Wholeness is a natural and innate state of being. It is ultimate fulfillment. It is a conscious connection to our core being. Life circumstances and experiences often fracture aspects of ourselves and shift us into a different state of reality as we struggle against who we really are. Thus, we find ourselves lost in illusions and false beliefs and must find our way back to our center of wholeness. The challenge is becoming more congruent and connected with the mental, physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual aspect of ourselves; living well, and ultimately loving ourselves into wholeness...ultimate fulfillment. The book offers a unique and fundamental approach for insightful introspection on topics relevant to our daily existence with reflective thoughts for us to ponder in moments of happiness and those of quiet desperation. Eastern and western principles, practices and creative inspirations from great thinkers of our time on being whole and living well provides a variety of perspectives for personal growth and self-renewal on our journey to wholeness. As we become more knowledgeable of ourselves and aware in our daily lives, and sustain a mindset of conscious living with the realization that each moment presents a fresh opportunity to begin again. The author shares personal perspectives that are meaningful and insightful in the struggle for wholeness. Our labyrinth journey of life takes us out and back home to the place of wholeness wherein lies ultimate fulfillment.

Wholeness is about removing invisible boundaries from our lives that keep us from realizing our highest potential. In order to live an outer life without limits, we have to uncover and address the inner limitations that hide in our blind spots. This life-changing book explains that regardless of where you are in life, Wholeness will take you higher. Wholeness will elevate your sense of fulfillment in life, produce healthier, more rewarding relationships, and will position you for optimum success in every endeavor. International thought leader and pastor Touré Roberts explains we can't always choose the experiences that keep us from being whole, but we can take control of our lives today and bring healing to any broken area. Key chapters include an in-depth relationship guide titled "Two Halves Don't Make a Whole." "The Cracked Mirror" shows how unprocessed experiences can negatively shape our view of self, others, and the world around us. "Ghosts of the Past" gives powerful, practical tools for avoiding the traps of the past and ensuring that we enter into the amazing future that God has planned for us. Wholeness is filled with wisdom garnered from Touré's own life--raised by a single mom, narrowly escaping the trappings of inner-city life, and finding success in corporate America. His insight is further broadened by his role as founder of one of the most influential churches in the nation, with over fourteen years pastoring thousands of millennials, couples, families, and a diverse group of individuals. Wholeness will take you on a transformational journey that won't leave you the same. Concluding with a "Wholeness Test," Wholeness will help you track and maintain your progress while walking out your journey to your full potential.

There are two questions to ask yourself. Do you feel a call to deepen your life, to live more freely, to be more happy? And the second is, are you prepared to take the time and the trouble to discover this new way of living, and to enjoy it forever? The aim of this book is to empower you to respond 'Yes' to both questions. It takes courage and trust to take the fi rst step. There will be voices, within and without, telling you to wait, or that you haven't got what it takes, or to forget it. But if you are ready, the way is already being cleared for you. The adventures will be many. The road unsure. The pain never far away. This book is written from within the author's own soul's journey. It is drawn from a theology of creation and a spirituality of the heart. What is essential is this - to keep trusting and letting go, to stay open and vulnerable, to live only in the present moment of your journey. That is all, and that is enough. The superabundant life follows. And the travelling is everything.

Other than the question of God, the question of human nature—who we are, why we are here, whey we behave as we do—is the most fundamental and perplexing of all. We are mystified at both the kindness and the horrors of human behavior and wonder where God is in both. In Only Human, David Gushee—ethicist, pastor, and award-winning Christian writer¾ uses a classic Christian framework to addresses questions about what it means to be a human being, our makeup and nature, what is right and what is wrong with us, and our origins and destiny. Drawing from contemporary and ancient discussions of human nature, Gushee offers a substantive and accessible exploration of eight essential questions: · Is there such a thing as human nature, something all humans share? · How do we understand what we are made of? · Why do relationships matter so much to us? · Is it true that human beings are intrinsically sinful? · Are human beings truly free to chart their own paths and make meaningful choices? · How do human beings become morally good people or morally evil? · What does a morally great life look like? · What should we hope for as our ultimate goal for life’s journey?

I'm being pulled in a thousand different directions. As a therapist, Chuck DeGroat hears that line all the time. "I hear it from students and software developers," he says. "I hear it from spiritual leaders and coffee baristas. And I hear it from my own inner self." We all feel that nasty pull to and fro, the frantic busyness that exhausts us and threatens to undo us. And we all think we know the solution -- more downtime, more relaxation, more rest. And we're all wrong. As DeGroat himself has discovered, the real solution to what pulls us apart is wholeheartedness, a way of living and being that can transform us from the inside out. And that's what readers of this book will discover too.
