The Shape of My Heart


Book Description

How well do we know our vocational purpose? How do our life circumstances cause us to reconsider our vocational purpose? How can we know if we are living the life to which God is calling us? This book tells the story of author Richard Ray as he searches for answers to these questions while making a pilgrimage to the shrine of St. James on the Camino de Santiago. Human beings have sought meaning for their lives through transcendent experiences for thousands of years. The pilgrimage is one such transcendent experience. A practice that has a place in all of the world’s great religions, the act of pilgrimage, is many things to many pilgrims—retreat, extended prayer, penance for sins, an opening to spiritual or religious conversion. This book provides readers with an opportunity to learn more about pilgrims and pilgrimage, including historical, religious, cultural, artistic, and economic perspectives—all through the journey of an experienced pilgrim. Readers will, perhaps, begin to frame their worldview through the lens of pilgrimage and to conceive of their lives as purposeful journeys to God.




The Shape of My Heart

Now it's time to find out if he can ever go home again, and Courtney's the only one he trusts to go with him. But the trip to Providence could change everything.... It started out so simple. One misfit helping another. Now Max will do anything to show Courtney that for every heart that's ever been broken, there's another that can make it complete.




The Shape of the Soul


Book Description

“An essential read for any true seeker."—Eben Alexander, MD, Neurosurgeon, author of Proof of Heaven and Living in a Mindful Universe When Paul Marshall began to pay attention to his dreams, he could not have anticipated the transformative experience that would follow. A tremendous expansion of consciousness exposed the insignificance of his everyday self but also revealed unsuspected depths of mind and hinted at a deeper self that holds the universe within. In The Shape of the Soul, Marshall—now a mysticism scholar—draws on personal experiences, along with a wealth of religious, philosophical, and scientific ideas, to explore this deeper self, sometimes experienced in mystical and near-death states as spherical in form. Drawing inspiration from the philosophers Plotinus and Leibniz, Marshall takes mind to be more fundamental than matter and views the basic units of nature as perceptual beings. We ourselves are such beings, striving for fulfilment in a long evolutionary journey of soul-making. Bringing together mysticism, philosophy, biology, and even some physics, The Shape of the Soul offers a deeply integrated vision of the self and the universe. Addressing the mind–body problem, the origin of the world, evolution, reincarnation, suffering, and the nature of God, Marshall delivers what will surely prove an intellectual classic.




A Glimpse into the Other Side Through the Eyes of My Soul


Book Description

Our soul is the part of us that we often do not think much about. Our soul has feelings and emotions. Our soul experiences pain and agony. Our soul laughs and enjoys being full of joy and happiness. Most of all, our soul yearns to be closer to our God. Our soul is the part of us that will live forever throughout eternity with God or away from God. In A Glimpse into the Other Side Through the Eyes of My Soul, author Louise considers her life’s journey and recognizes it as a wonderful blessing, because she has been called to share many great blessings and hallelujah moments of her life with us. Louise also realizes that she is responsible for sharing the heartbreaking trials and the tear-filled sorrows that she has endured along the way. Louise also knows that her life has been richly blessed and highly favored by her God; therefore, she must continue to write all that her God allows her to write. Louise is a Christian who loves God the Father; Jesus Christ, her lord and savior; and the Holy Spirit. She is not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. Louise has been chosen—by God—to be a vessel that will share her life’s journey with each and every one of us. A wonderfully amazing gift was given to her that allows her to see what her soul sees, hears, and experiences at various times in her life.

Voices of My Soul

I want to soar like a free bird exploring the wonders of life. I want to laugh from my belly and scream with joy. I want to create and inspire. I want to give love and receive love. I want life in all its abundance. I want to live and create a new song with lyrics of living. This is an excerpt from New Song.




Builders of My Soul


Book Description

To Yeats, as well as to Eliot, Pound, Joyce, and other major writers, as Erich Auerbach put it in Mimesis, "Antiquity means liberation and a broadening of horizons, not in any sense a new limitation or servitude." That is why Greco-Roman themes can be endlessly stimulating, why Yeats could call the Greek and Roman writers "the builders of my soul." Brian Arkin's thematic consideration of Yeat's subject matter under philosophy, myth, religion, history, literature, visual art, and Byzantium, allows us to see coherently how Yeats exploited this material and how, especially in his middle and later periods, he transformed and metamorphosed subject matter from Homer, Phidias, Plato, Plotinus, and Sophocles, and from the myths of Dionysus, Helen of Troy, Leda, and Zeus, to exemplify his central preoccupations. Irish Literary Studies Series No. 32.
