Bestselling author of Geography of Bliss returns with this funny, illuminating chronicle of a globe-spanning spiritual quest to find a faith that fits. When a health scare puts him in the hospital, Eric Weiner-an agnostic by default-finds himself tangling with an unexpected question, posed to him by a well-meaning nurse. "Have you found your God yet?" The thought of it nags him, and prods him-and ultimately launches him on a far-flung journey to do just that. Weiner, a longtime "spiritual voyeur" and inveterate traveler, realizes that while he has been privy to a wide range of religious practices, he's never seriously considered these concepts in his own life. Face to face with his own mortality, and spurred on by the question of what spiritual principles to impart to his young daughter, he decides to correct this omission, undertaking a worldwide exploration of religions and hoping to come, if he can, to a personal understanding of the divine. The journey that results is rich in insight, humor, and heart. Willing to do anything to better understand faith, and to find the god or gods that speak to him, he travels to Nepal, where he meditates with Tibetan lamas and a guy named Wayne. He sojourns to Turkey, where he whirls (not so well, as it turns out) with Sufi dervishes. He heads to China, where he attempts to unblock his chi; to Israel, where he studies Kabbalah, sans Madonna; and to Las Vegas, where he has a close encounter with Raelians (followers of the world's largest UFO-based religion). At each stop along the way, Weiner tackles our most pressing spiritual questions: Where do we come from? What happens when we die? How should we live our lives? Where do all the missing socks go? With his trademark wit and warmth, he leaves no stone unturned. At a time when more Americans than ever are choosing a new faith, and when spiritual questions loom large in the modern age, Man Seeks God presents a perspective on religion that is sure to delight, inspire, and entertain.

New edition of a popular, biblically based guidebook exploring God's will Does the Bible teach Christians to "find" God's "special will" for their lives? No, it does not, says respected biblical scholar Bruce Waltke, contrary to much popular evangelical teaching. In this acclaimed book Waltke clearly distinguishes between pagan divination ("guessmancy") and solid, Bible-based guidance as he distills from Scripture a six-point program to help guide Jesus followers on their life journey. This expanded and extensively rewritten second edition of Waltke's Finding the Will of God incorporates the best insights from many other books on guidance that have appeared since the first edition came out (2002), and it includes an entirely new chapter on learning to protect one's heart. This edition also features thoughtful questions for reflection at the end of each chapter.

The rapid end to the godlessness that we have been living in since the beginning of time is here at last, at the precipice of the end of times. The movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still, starring Keanu Reeves, is a wonderful, though fi ctional, testimony to how the world, or humans, respond to detrimental situations especially our own. Only when there is tragedy or even doom do we change and try to save our own lives. There are serious defi ciencies in genuine love, respect and reverence for the Almighty God, our Father in Heaven, also in living as new creations of born again Christians for Jesus Christ. It has tainted the Churches and the written Word of God to the point that ministers, elders and clergy pretend not to notice and even believe they are powerless to do anything about it anymore. They have all let the sin fester for so long that the power of God cannot live in the churches we build and the presents of the Holy Spirit is not felt in them either. You will experience with me the memories of my religious and spiritual experiences coupled with my everyday challenges to show how this world changed from being lovers of God to being God haters and what we must do to change and follow Him. "Found in a Garbage Can" is a testimony of a young girl who through trial after trial grows spiritually and found that God was with her throughout her life. The book starts speaking of time and the ages. It speaks on miracles and childhood notions that will cause you to remember. That people will begin reading their bibles and with living the finest principles studies because they are life changing. I recommend everyone that is able to read Found in a Garbage Can. This book will cause you to be moved by events have been though and the product of my change and obedience.

"Seek and you shall find."-Matthew 7:7b In 1949, author Robert Johnston experienced a life-changing encounter with an agnostic coworker. Because of this person's radically different life perspective, Johnston began to realize how spiritual conflict leads a Christian into a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit. The Way: The Spiritual Journey-The Path to Glory is the compelling story of Johnston's fifty-year Christian pilgrimage. In the course of his journey, Johnston discovers that it is not our achievements in this world that prepare us for salvation but rather Christ who uses our life's experiences to propel us toward spiritual victory. Followers of Christ are directed to witness his victorious love, and Johnston saw God at work that day in 1949. The Way encourages you to seek the Lord in your life and spread his wonderful message to those who have yet to respond to it.
