We are all here for a purpose. In Soul Growth issues-Soul Grief Choices, author and world renowned psychic Fred Rawlins helps strip away some of the mysteries that often obscure the reasons for our existence. Unless we discover our soul-chosen purpose in this life, Rawlins says, we are apt to struggle in vain. And when that happens, he adds, we most likely will have to repeat these lessons in another life.With humor and compassion, Rawlins reveals how we can learn why we are here and what is that we are to learn. We each chose our lives before we were born, Rawlins says. It is only when we understand why we made these choices that we can truly begin to grow.In Soul Growth issues-Soul Grief Choices, Rawlins describes how there is a design to our lives, one in which we are supported to participate so our spirits can continue to progress. Called one of the most accurate psychics in America by the News Journal in Wilmington, DE, Rawlins became aware of his gift when he was still a boy.
Written by and for preteens, this uplifting collection of stories touches on the emotions and situations they experience every day: making and losing friends, fitting in while keeping their personal identity, discovering the opposite sex, dealing with pressures at school including violence, and coping with family issues such as divorce.
Every day, inner and outer violence ravages the soul, leaving us weak, fearful, and malnourished. In Soul Custody, Stephen W. Smith presents eight choices to help readers reclaim custody of their one and only life—choices about silence, community, vocation, honoring the body, finding one’s true self, and more. As Smith reminds readers, allowing God to shape the soul leads to the deep, full, and satisfying life that God had in mind all along. This is not a self-help book. It is not a book of easy steps to a happy life. It is an invitation to the life God dreams for each of His children. It is a call to start living—to let the soul wake up to life as God intended.
Focus Philosophical Library's edition of Plato's Republic is an English translation of one of the most intellectually important works in Western philosophy and political theory. It includes an extensive introduction, an extensive afterword "Imitation" by John White, a chapter-by-chapter outline of principal speakers and summary of the content, Stephanus numbers, boldface type to indicate the entrance of a new speaker into the discussion, footnotes, and glossary of key terms with cross-references for the text. This dialogue includes Socrates and others discussing the definition of justice, the theory of forms, and the immortality of the soul. Plato uses numerous dialogues between Socrates and various characters in Athens to discuss the nature of government, including the nature of justice, the happiness of the just and the unjust man, the nature of rule in the ideal city-state, and other matters essential to understanding classical philosophy such as the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, poetry, and the role of the philosopher in society. FPL books are distinguished by their commitment to faithful, clear, and consistent translations of texts and the rich world part and parcel of those texts.

Near-Death Experiences and Sacred Scripture: The Parallel Messaging examines striking similarities and parallels between messaging found in accounts of those who have written about their near-death experiences and in accounts contained in the sacred scriptures of the world's great religions. This symmetrical and mutually reinforcing messaging is timeless in nature, and is arguably more relevant today than in any previous period in human history, as humanity continues to face existential threats to its survival. In an era of rampant materialism and consumerism, armed conflict, environmental degradation, species extinction, global warming, as well as an obsessive preoccupation with self rather than others and a devaluation of the life's sanctity. It's timely to spark a revived interest in, and knowledge of, God and the afterlife, and in seeking answers to life's larger religious, spiritual, philosophical and metaphysical questions. This book will provide assurance and solace to those who are terminally ill or fear the death of their physical body, for those who are suffering a difficult bereavement, and for those who feel lost and confused about the meaning and purpose of life and what lies ahead of them.
This book is about you. You arrived in this world with a pure understanding of who you are, where you came from, and why you are here. Along with this, came absolute clarity about the meaning of your life and what is really important and true in this world. Then, during the normal process of growing up, while adapting to the world, and before you could share this truth with your tribe—you forgot. This is a truth-seeker's journey to remembering who you are, where you came from, and why you are here. It centers on the three basic parts of you—soul, body, and mind—and how these parts team up to create your experience of life and reveal life’s true purpose. Along this inspirational path you will remember: • the meaning of integrity and how the few simple parts of life fit together to reveal the whole truth • how satyagraha (truth force) brings truth to the forefront of this journey • how you create your experience of life with the five phases of The Creation Sequence • how the intention behind your choices determines your experience • how your ego and your soul clash in creating your life experience • five practices to invite grace in your life, bringing fulfillment and well-being for all • sati (mindfulness) practices to help connect you to the truth of each chapter “I hope these ideas resonates with you, but in the end, you shouldn’t listen to me. You should listen to you. That is the whole point of this book.”
Hold Destiny within your hands as you hold a child within your arms. Let your heart guide you, and all will be known. Then from out of the silence, a voice will be heard, calling you gently and lovingly toward your Destiny.
