How God Becomes Real by T.M. Luhrmann Pdf

The hard work required to make God real, how it changes the people who do it, and why it helps explain the enduring power of faith How do gods and spirits come to feel vividly real to people—as if they were standing right next to them? Humans tend to see supernatural agents everywhere, as the cognitive science of religion has shown. But it isn’t easy to maintain a sense that there are invisible spirits who care about you. In How God Becomes Real, acclaimed anthropologist and scholar of religion T. M. Luhrmann argues that people must work incredibly hard to make gods real and that this effort—by changing the people who do it and giving them the benefits they seek from invisible others—helps to explain the enduring power of faith. Drawing on ethnographic studies of evangelical Christians, pagans, magicians, Zoroastrians, Black Catholics, Santeria initiates, and newly orthodox Jews, Luhrmann notes that none of these people behave as if gods and spirits are simply there. Rather, these worshippers make strenuous efforts to create a world in which invisible others matter and can become intensely present and real. The faithful accomplish this through detailed stories, absorption, the cultivation of inner senses, belief in a porous mind, strong sensory experiences, prayer, and other practices. Along the way, Luhrmann shows why faith is harder than belief, why prayer is a metacognitive activity like therapy, why becoming religious is like getting engrossed in a book, and much more. A fascinating account of why religious practices are more powerful than religious beliefs, How God Becomes Real suggests that faith is resilient not because it provides intuitions about gods and spirits—but because it changes the faithful in profound ways.

God Is for Real by Todd Burpo,David Drury Pdf

God is for Real, a new book from author of the best-seller Heaven is for Real, addresses soul-searching questions about God, likeWhat is God like? Why are things the way they are in spite of who God is? If Todd's first book, Heaven Is for Real, was about the then and there of heaven, God is for Real is about the here and now on earth: Why are there are so many hypocritical church people? Why do Christians make such a big deal about the cross? Why doesn't God seem to answer our biggest prayers? People are tired of pat answers offered up in churchy language explaining away their questions; we want the down-and-dirty truth. What bothers us about life and faith is real and gritty. We need a plain-spoken voice to offer God's answers to difficult struggles and painful doubts. Todd charges into these subjects with a fireman's courage, a small-town friend's vulnerability, and a local pastor's compassion. He helps articulate the questions people have, then gives them relevant biblical wisdom for taking their next steps in faith. God is ready to meet you! Are you ready to meet Him?

Does God Really Talk by Dr. Mary Washam Pdf

Many readers may relate to the cover of this book in how they view God and His speaking, where He is distant and above the clouds, rather than being close and personal...like a friend. Organized religion has perpetuated the notion of a God who is far away. This religious system has stifled spiritual intimacy between God and people and replaced it with rules and rituals. Though Bible scripture and her personal experiences Dr. Washam shows that God is an intimate, personal, talking God. Who desires to be involved in every aspect of our lives...everyday issues and extraordinary trials. Dr. Washam shares her experiences as though she were conversing with a familiar acquaintance; she speaks to us rather than at us. Through this book, the reader will know without a doubt that God Does Talk, and that He desires to speak unto them! The reader will learn the ways in which God speaks and the hindrances that can keep them from hearing the voice of God. In these uncertain times it is vital that we hear and know the voice of God so that we can make good decisions that will ultimately impact the course of our lives.

What Did God Really Intend? by Daniel E. Truwell Pdf

Enlightening the mind through speculation: In the search for a clearer understanding of God as we read through his written Word, there are things we may wonder about. The scripture encourages us to use the mind of God. Even though we cant possibly know all that God knows, I think certain things lead us toward a better understanding of God. God thinks on a level far beyond human comprehension. Yet He is willing to give us the tools to read His mind and begin to think like He thinks! (Mike Bennett). Being sane and being saintly are ultimately the same thing: conforming our thoughts and our lives to the nature of reality, which is ultimately God, His nature and His designs (Peter Kreeft, Practical Theology: Spiritual Direction from Saint Thomas Aquinas). Reasoning is an invigorating aspect of spirituality, which eventually leads to reality. To reason means to make sense of things. In a sense, God is so misunderstood until the world just remains in an overall lost state. If people would take enough time to stop and ponder just how real God is and conform to the plan he intended for his creation, we would have a more peaceful world. I wrote this book because I feel very deeply about how God wanted things to be. But deception coupled with disobedience turned Gods plan into ultimate chaos. Some things people may never think about may be the key to understanding unknown things. So let us consider how God may have wanted his plan to materialize, and at the same time, receive some spiritual enlightenment. Hopefully, this book will inspire more people to read the Bible. For scriptural references, I used the King James Version Bible.

God Really, Really Likes You by Becky Proctor Pdf

Have you ever felt alienated from, angry at, intimidated by, or otherwise disconnected from God? You are not alone. Countless people go through life feeling, among other things, that God doesn’t like them, but this book shares life-changing news: God really, really likes you, just the way you are – barefaced, unfiltered, unpolished, on your worst hair day ever. In this book, the author shares her own struggles with misunderstanding God, beginning as a child. “I was a child who didn’t ask many questions. From bits and pieces of fundamental sermons and overheard conversations, my image of God was anything but loving. I pictured God as the enforcer, the disapprover, a bad Santa, ready to catch me doing something ‘bad.’” She kept a respectful distance from God for years. Learn what motivated her to finally accept God’s offer of grace, how simple it was to do and how fulfilling life is now that she knows God not only loves her, but likes her as well, and how God reveals Himself in the simplicity of everyday life. So, no matter how raggedly, how despicable you are feeling, God likes you and loves you. He created you in His own image. You are not some randomly occurring experiment or some fatally flawed lump of humanity. You are not a victim of your circumstances, or of another’s bad decisions, or someone else’s selfish dreams. You are God’s creation, made for a divine purpose to walk through this life on a journey that goes beyond your wildest dreams. And the best part of all — God’s got your back every step of the way.
