2021 Illumination Book Awards, Gold Medal: Spirituality What is the “inner chapel”? The place within where God meets us. We can trust God—and we can trust in God’s promises to us, including: We are never alone. We are loved--unconditionally. We have a companion in our suffering. Each of us has a unique call. But how do we experience all that God has given us? By going to the inner chapel, that sacred place within each person where God waits to love us unconditionally. There, God gives us all we need to find our way to a life of hope instead of despair, peace instead of continued restlessness, and joy instead of anxiety. Becky Eldredge offers readers down-to-earth stories, prayer experiences to try, and enthusiastic encouragement for spiritual growth and a deeper friendship with God. The Inner Chapel will inspire individuals but also provide excellent material for small groups and people going on retreat.​

I can certainly state that writing can change your life. It is one of the therapies I practised and it had very good results. That is how I began to write the book. Initially, out of impulse. Afterwards, I realized how much it helped me writing everything I felt in my heart. The miracle offered by writing is that you get the answers to all your questions. Those questions to which only your heart can answer. Once you find answers to everything you did not even think you would come up with solutions, you are absolutely healed. I feel that only a person completely healed can help the others. The rest is just dust in the wind. The message of the book is practically beyond words. If you open yourself, the God within you will write with your own hand everything your mind would not even think possible. A few words about me. Following my inner transformation, I have become what I am now. What are the fundamental features that define me? I am a determined woman, very active. I relish the experiences full of action. I always know what I want and where I want to get. I act for what I want. I am an expansive woman, full of life. I attract people around me by the intelligence and refinement I have. I am attracted to powerful persons with a sparkling intelligence. I have spiritual aspirations and I have the spontaneous quality of leading those around me on the path of self-discovery.

'The Smoky God, or A Voyage Journey to the Inner Earth' is a book presented as a true account written by Willis George Emerson in 1908, which describes the adventures of Olaf Jansen, a Norwegian sailor who sailed with his father through an entrance to the Earth's interior at the North Pole. For two years Jansen lived with the inhabitants of an underground network of colonies who, Emerson writes, were 12 feet tall and whose world was lit by a "smoky" central sun. Their capital city was said to be the original Garden of Eden.

A Jungian psychoanalyst with a background in Judaism and Zen Buddhism explores the history of God concepts in the Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions. This book is about the Abrahamic God’s inner journey, an epic that begins in the Hebrew Bible—the common source of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. This God emerges as a living, textured personality as tormented as a Shakespearean character and as divided against humanity as the devil who personifies his dark side. Yet in heroic fashion, he embarks on a journey to greater consciousness, stretching into himself in the Talmud, New Testament, Qur’an, and Gnostic writings. Then finally, with and through the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic mystics, he discovers his true self as the absolute Godhead. He takes up residence in their psyches as their own Divine Mind or true self. The book suggests that what God learned from his journey might be something that we in turn could learn from and that could help us at the dawn of the twenty-first century. In this way, God’s inner journey becomes a metaphor for our own. Michael Gellert, a Jungian psychoanalyst, treats this story and the sacred writings that convey it as psychological facts—as expressions of the human psyche—regardless of whether or not God actually exists. He shows how the Hebrew Bible presents God as a primitive, barbaric tribal war god while centuries later the mystics portray him as their innermost essence and emptied of all projected, external, anthropomorphic images. Thus, God’s inner journey and the evolution of human consciousness—his story and ours—parallel each other and are integrally related. Rich in historical detail and psychological insights, this is a book that will be welcomed by seekers of every background and orientation.

The human body is a likeness of God, its design revealing insights into the church, the “body of Christ” For bestselling author Philip Yancey, the late Dr. Paul Brand—the brilliant hand surgeon who devoted his life to the poorest people of India and Louisiana—was also a likeness of God, living the kind of Christian life that exemplified what God must have had in mind. In the Likeness of God combines the complete texts of Fearfully and Wonderfully Made and In His Image—both Gold Medallion Award–winners which together have sold more than half a million copies—into one volume. Also included for the first time are eight beautiful litanies of praise on the human body by Dr. Brand. In Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, Dr. Paul Brand and bestselling writer Philip Yancey explore the wonder of the human body and uncover the eternal statements that God has made in the very structure of our bodies. Their remarkable journey through inner space—the world of cells, systems, and chemistry—points to a still deeper unseen reality of God’s work in our lives. In His Image takes up where the first book leaves off. In five sections—Image, Blood, Head, Spirit, and Pain—the authors unlock the remarkable living lessons contained in our physical makeup.

After reading a recently published book by a paleontologist who claims he found the missing link between humans and aquatic species that lived billions of years ago, Glauco Ortolano answers back with HUMANIQUENESS, a thought provoking and inspirational book linking humans to a more divine heritage than fish.From a poem written by Vicente Huidobro,an early 20th Century Chilean poet, Glauco Ortolano builds a fascinating paradigm to challenge the contemporary views on human evolution based solely on scientific evidences. "We are small gods, not evolved fish, and it's time we put an end to all that nonsense", says Ortolano.The response from the scientific community has been outrageous, including personal attacks on Mr. Ortolano's reputation as a prominent scholar. "Humaniqueness" is a must read for anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of what it means to be human and semi-divine. It will enlighten and bring you into full realization of our unique faculties, gifts, and destiny as a species.

One of the great spiritual writers of our times, Jim Palmer, is calling for anarchy - inner anarchy! Since 2005, Palmer has been exploring the terrain of spirituality beyond the mindsets of organized religion, and has written four books, including the widely acclaimed works, Divine Nobodies, and Notes from (Over) the Edge. In his provocative new book Inner Anarchy, Palmer shows how the Christian religion has twisted the true life and message of Jesus, and has preached a powerless gospel that is preventing millions of people from being free. He challenges the reader to inner anarchy, "We must dethrone and tear down the mindsets and ideologies that are ruling our world from within us and taking us further down a road of certain doom." Whether you are a Christian, Atheist, or whatever religious or spiritual background you may have, Palmer offers a hopeful place for all human beings to explore the possibility of birthing a new reality in our world. He writes, "Jesus announced the inauguration of a new age-the likes of which we have never seen but have dreamed of. His words are compelling and fascinating. He implied that this age is hidden in the human heart and is now ready to be birthed into existence. Jesus said it would come in the midst of great turmoil and would be led not by religious preachers and Bible scholars, but by those who open up their minds, become like a child and trust what is deep inside their hearts.""Inner Anarchy is not a book; it's smelling salts." - Jacob Byrne"An admonition to the Christian church, an invitation to birth a new world, and a challenge to tear down what is ruling us from within." - Maria Armstrong "...brings God out of the sky to the center of our lives. Inner Anarchy shows the way to the future." - Jim High"It has changed everything I thought I knew about God." - Byron Johnson "Remember the sixties? Inner Anarchy could spark a movement that finishes the job!" - Carson Kavanagh "Gritty. Deep. A message to rattle your cage, and change the world." - Lucas Farrell "... will speak to you at your core and trust the truths that lie within you." - Reuben Goff
