unSpiritual: A Spiritual Journey


Book Description

For some of us, there is a built-in, born-with affliction to seek and find the answers to our existence. It is not by choice. It is a gnawing, a knowing—a sacred sickness. It is a feeling so deep that it vibrates in the cells and boils in the blood. It is an intensity so unrelenting in its drive, so constant, determined, unwavering, and focused that even sleep is not safe from its scrutiny. And when it is hidden, it is simply waiting for the next attack upon its prey of falsehood. The story begins with Christopher staring at a shotgun, considering ending his life at 18. He has a born-again experience and becomes a missionary in Haiti. After escaping a Christian cult, he leaves Christianity and travels through the landscape of spirituality for 25 years. Enchanted by the song "Stairway to Heaven", he follows the inner muse into a mysterious realm that transforms his life. He chronicles a powerful human metamorphosis (kundalini) over five weeks and details how the body purges itself of psycho-emotional complexes and unleashes its spiraling power inside. This is a rare peak into the kundalini experience. This experience changes his name to Zzenn, leading him to discover his "lost chord," a style of music he calls ZzennSong. This is a tale of riveting intensity and synchronicity, sprinkled with keys of insight through the life of a modern seeker and mystic. It is a harrowing narrative for any story lover, spiritual seeker, musical artist, or survivor of childhood trauma.

unSpirituality: Permission to be Human


Book Description

Permission to be Human is an anecdote to spiritual delusion. With ferocious tenor, Zzenn breaks down the construct that holds religious and spiritual memes together. He explains the root of hereditary religion and exposes the core of dualistic programming. The connection between New Age belief systems and Christianity reveal an inherent poison that infects human animals. This is a dangerous book for faith-based believers and liberating for seekers yearning for their native freedom.




A Living Tree


Book Description

This book examines biblical and rabbinic law as a coherent, continuing legal tradition. It explains the relationship between religion and law and the interaction between law and morality. Abundant selections from primary Jewish sources, many newly translated, enable the reader to address the tradition directly as a living body of law with emphasis on the concerns that are primary for lawyers, legislators, and judges. Through an in-depth examination of personal injury law and marriage and divorce law, the book explores jurisprudential issues important for any legal system and displays the primary characteristics of Jewish law.

Becoming a True Spiritual Community


Book Description

In today's frenetic society, people rarely develop intimate friendships. Instead, they spend their lives essentially disconnected from others, rushing through life content with brief visits and casual conversations. But what if one were to develop a community, a spiritual community, of people who walked with and supported each other through life's journey? A community of real friends who listened to each other's personal tragedies without merely trying to fix the problems, who encouraged and nurtured each other's strengths, and who accepted people for who they really are, instead of the image they try to portray. In Becoming a True Spiritual Community (formerly titled The Safest Place on Earth), Larry Crabb explores such a place, where God can heal disconnected people and allow them to reconnect with each other and, ultimately, with Him.




The Tithe


Book Description

Prosperity theology is questionable at best, yet many church leaders teach and some even demand the tithe of the Old Covenant as a method of giving. This volume explains how to free oneself from the legalism of law and to give with the freedom and liberty of grace as led by the Holy Spirit. (Social Issues)
