Spiritual Self

We are personalizing the word of God so that you can use it in a practical way, a way which applies to your life and to your circumstances. Christian Affirmations for Self-Control contains more than 150 affirmations, declarations, and meditations to transform your thoughts, your mind, and, ultimately, your life. Listen to these affirmations but most importantly, repeat some of them on a daily basis and see how you will start displaying great self-control.

For centuries, black women have been groomed to neglect their emotional health. This has led to the birth of a generation of women who are so broken and damaged that we believe the relationships we cultivate should function in two settings only: ride or die. But when you think well, self-care runs much deeper than just a bubble bath–it includes emotional self-care as well. Since life has become increasingly harder for everyone these days, in this book, I’m going to talk exactly about it.

The Trace That Was Never There is the closing volume in this post-spiritual trilogy—a contemplative, poetic dismantling of the final constructs we cling to: the soul, the self, the seeker, and the witness. This book does not offer answers, tools, or affirmations. It is not a map. It is the trace left by something already disappearing.

Christians today are often not prepared to suffer well and have a short-sighted view of pain and trials. Ken Boa shows how God uses suffering to shape his children for eternity and to grow them in Christlike character. The book of 1 Peter tells us suffering is both a guarantee and comparatively brief; we shouldn't be surprised when it comes to us. The nature of our affliction is not as important as our response to it. God is at work through our hardships and wants to use them to prepare us for eternal life. Suffering can make us bitter or better. Rediscover living hope, present joy, and a glorious future.

Jerry and Diane show us how to look at every relationship as if there were only two emotions: love and fear. Fear, whose motto is "seek, but never find," is a product of our ego - our negative mind that views life as a constant battle in which we must defend ourselves, pass judgments and condemn. Love, the absence of fear and its accompanying guilt, is a beautiful light symbolizing our connection to a Higher Power.

Ssukgat, or Chrysanthemum greens, are treasured in Korean culture for their healing abilities. You can coax its withered stalks to bloom again, with sun, water, soil, and care. It’s a fitting metaphor for eco-entrepreneur and CEO Michelle Jungmin Bang, who found herself in excruciating pain due to the constant sacrificing of her health and wellness for work—a trade many of us make daily. Thus started her fascinating journey to overhaul her health and reconnect with her heritage in South Korea.

Self-criticism is often our default setting. But we can have a more gracious posture toward ourselves. We can practice disciplines of self-kindness. Editor and spiritual director Cindy Bunch calls us to self-care through greater compassion for ourselves. She helps us pay attention to the frustrations that bug us in order to identify negative thinking about ourselves or others. As we do so, we can discern what we need to let go. This allows us to lean into the things that bring us joy. Each chapter is filled with spiritual practices and creative exercises for reflection and celebration.

While most contemporary Enneagram books stop at the descriptions of the nine types, Enneagram teacher and The Sacred Enneagram best-selling author Chris Heuertz uncovers the missing link in our journey of living into our true self: radical self-compassion that can bring us back to belonging. Rather than get stuck on stereotypes or curated personality, Heuertz proposes we develop an honest relationship with our type, confronting our "inner dragons," practicing self-compassion, and thereby coming to fully belong to ourselves - and, ultimately, to love itself.

In this special recording, we travel with Dr. Gerald G. Jampolsky and Dr. Diane Cirincione into the most intimate of their internal journeys. We move with Jerry from militant atheism through an awakening by direct experience with the Divine.

Motherhood: the hardest, most rewarding job on the planet that grows us, teaches us, stretches us and fills our heart with more love than we could ever imagine. But what happens when we burn out? What happens when we lose our steam and feel as we have lost the woman we once were? What do we do when we feel as if we have nothing left to give? The answer is simple. We must stop putting ourselves last. We must remember that in order to love others and be the best mama we can possibly be, we must first nurture our mind, body and soul and let go of the guilt that surrounds us.

We need good preaching - preaching that challenges us by God’s word and brings the comfort that comes from God’s promises. Yet many of us rely solely on others to preach to us and are not benefitting from the kind of preaching that should be most consistent and personal - preaching to ourselves. Note to Self is a practical introduction to this daily discipline. Pastor Joe Thorn delivers 50 brief, devotional chapters that model preaching the gospel to ourselves and its practical implications.
