I don’t see how spirituality can NOT be everybody’s business. That’s like saying that water is not a fishes’ business. Without an aquatic environment, fish have no life.
Once in a few millennium there is a Great Fish that makes the transition from sea to land and begins breeding a new species. But that’s like the difference between angels and humans. We don’t exist in the same realm.
To them (angels), we appear weak, foolish, and gullible. It’s as if they’re watching through a one-way mirror that’s on their side. Cultivate the inner voice as you go about your daily business of involvement with the planet.
“From Jesus to Christ: The First Christians” tells the epic story of the rise of Christianity. The four hours explore the life and death of Jesus, and the men and women whose belief, conviction, and martyrdom created the religion we now know as Christianity.
One of the largest mass extinctions of the earth’s history is underway, this time without the traditional meteor, volcano eruptions, or other apocalyptic signs of the end of the world.
Essay One: Identify and discuss one significant problem or issue in contemporary culture that concerns you: some of the dimensions of this issue, why it matters to you, and what possible solutions you or others might propose to deal with it.
One of the largest mass extinctions of the earth’s history is underway, this time without the traditional meteor, volcano eruptions, or other apocalyptic signs of the end of the world. This time, the large-scale destruction of the world’s biodiversity is wrought by the hands of earth’s greatest creatures – human beings. Quite interestingly enough, humans are the most intelligent creatures on the planet, and yet are the biggest environmental problem that the earth is facing today.

Foundations21 was devised by Tony Bradley, who approached BRF in September 2000 with the idea of a multimedia web-based discipleship resource. Since then a team of people – in Abingdon, Oxford, Birmingham, and Bangalore, India – have been involved in bringing Foundations21 to life. As far as we know it’s the first of its kind, anywhere in the world.
Foundations21 was first launched in July 2006 on a paid-subscription basis and has gradually built up a loyal core group of users for whom it has become a significant resource for their Christian journey.
However, it has become clear that the prevailing view about the Internet is that content should be free, and although many people have expressed admiration and respect for Foundations21 and for what it provides, its subscription basis is regarded as an obstacle to it being taken up and used more widely by individuals, churches and Christian organisations.
About the program
Foundations21 provides a wealth of resources for discipleship and lifelong Christian learning. Its learning environment comprises twelve Rooms, each of which focuses on a single theme.
Within each Room are four Pathways which reflect four different learning styles. When you start Foundations21, you can take the Gospel Learning Style Quiz to find out which of the pathways is most likely to suit the way you like to learn.
There are three different Levels within each pathway: the first explores the essentials, the second looks deeper, and the third goes further still, allowing you to study the themes in greater detail.
Each Level contains two Waymarkers (a Waymarker is a series of pages for you to explore) with content to read, video to watch, web links to explore, and assignments to complete. Each time you complete an assignment it is saved to your online Journal, so you have a record of your journey through Foundations21. The email facility enables you to keep in touch with others if you wish, and to share your insights, questions and reflections with them.
Foundations21 includes a library of additional resources where you can check out information, put it in context and discover who, what, when and why! A Cyclopedia and a Timewall combine to answer the questions you might want to ask about the history, people and key beliefs of Christians down the ages. The Foundations21 website itself has more than 3,500 pages, with content drawn from a range of authors, organisations and publishers, and including more than four hours of original video and more than 7,500 weblinks.
QUESTION: WHY DID I DECIDE TO POST THESE BOOKS HERE?
PAULO COELHO: First, because I need to write, and I write more than the market can absorve. Second, because I believe in free contents. Third: although I wish I could share all my books, the publishing houses have the translation rights. So these are the only ones that I have the translation rights. LINK TO FREE E-BOOKS
Course Description
There is one thing I can be sure of: I am going to die. But what am I to make of that fact? This course will examine a number of issues that arise once we begin to reflect on our mortality. The possibility that death may not actually be the end is considered. Are we, in some sense, immortal? Would immortality be desirable? Also a clearer notion of what it is to die is examined. What does it mean to say that a person has died? What kind of fact is that? And, finally, different attitudes to death are evaluated. Is death an evil? How? Why? Is suicide morally permissible? Is it rational? How should the knowledge that I am going to die affect the way I live my life?

The teachings of Jesus form the basis of the Christian religion.
But many of his sayings and stories have been so well-known across the world for so long that rarely does the average person look closely at what Jesus was really trying to explain.
Assumptions about the meanings of his words have often been accepted without question and simply passed down from generation to generation.
In a unique and insightful book, author Philip Harris re-examines many of these famous, ancient quotes and suggests that Jesus actually had a precise understanding of The Law of Attraction.
And he argues that this knowledge about Universal Law is what really lies at the heart of the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Despite Jesus Taught It Too being a top seller in the Law of Attraction category at Amazon.com, Mr Harris has donated his work to PsiTek to be freely published online for the benefit of readers across the world.

Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East span six volumes and were copyrighted in 1924 and 1937, being published by DeVorss publications in 1964. They describe the travels to India and Tibet and surrounding nations of a research party of eleven scientists in 1894. During their trip they claim to have made contact with “the Great Masters of the Himalayas”, immortal beings with whom they lived and studied, gaining a fascinating insight into their lives and spiritual message.
